Ok guys I really want to use the on board Radeon card built into my machine and I know some of you have already made some attempt on getting this to work with: Adding ATI card IDs to ATI.c - update (8-Sept) On page 37 (I think) Notshy says that this work is focused on the desktop carts not the mobile cards so we kind of left it dead. Yesterday I was inspired to google the card working in lion (due to iMovie taking 50 hours to import 1:34 hours of hd video) and did come across a result of it apparently working. According to the topic the built in display doesn't work with the radeon (no big deal we can use the hd3000) but it does work with QE/CI if booted on hdmi. I've tried installing the files I downloaded from my google find, the alternative bootloader did boot but did still get the 'unsupported card!' Message on boot and it says the ati6000 controller kext could not be loaded. What did other people get when they tried notshy's method?? My google find: Instructions aren't exactly clear but hopefully 1 of you might be more in tune with the concept so can explain it step by step for the rest of us if you got it to work.

The GraphicsCard named Correct 'Ati Radeon 6470 M' but wirh 3 MB RAM. This is the Hp Elitebook 8460p with AMD 6470M only! I do use the kext from that installer. Re: Radeon 6470m Project I looked into the ati6000controller kext and I noticed there was a couple of framebuffers in the plist but not Ipomoea. So I googled add Ipomea to ati6000 kext and somehow stumbled upon this.

IF YOU ARE GOING TO TRY AND DO THIS YOU WILL NEED TO MOVE / DELETE YOUR DSDT OR YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BOOT WITH THE GRAPHICS CARD ACTIVE. EDIT since writing this i've realised my card is a 6490m not 6470m though it was listed on the site as 6470m try using CPU-Z to check. Unsupported ATI card! Device ID: [1002:6760] Subsystem ID: [167d103c]So I've added the shown Subsystem ID to the ati.c, still not working. Even if the graphics enabler is not working I get the ATI kexts loaded correctly. (ATI6000Controller, ATIRadeonX3000, ATISupport).

Screenshot from IORegExplorer. Also, am I the only one who can see the device-id being '`g' on his laptop? EDIT: OK, I got a little further. I removed all the array entries I've added and just modified the original one with the right device-id and the Ipomoea framebuffer (the closest one matching according to ).

I would like to share my experience about ATI Radeon HD 6470M on Asus A42JZ Notebook. Part 1: Current Status & Information about my best configuration What I uses: - with 6470M id added - ATI Kext from MBP2011 10.6.7 with patched Ipomoea personality (using and method Current Status: LVDS: Not working, blank/black screen with backlight turn on (can turn off/on using keyboard “Fn”). The screen can be used in VESA mode (1024x768x32) using GraphicsEnabler=No. HDMI: Working, Correct FullHD 1080p resolution with QE/CI, HDMI-audio not working.

VGA: Working, Correct resolution 1440x900 using SwtichResX. Remarks: - QE/CI will work only when HDMI is pluged in before OS X boot. If plug HDMI after OS X booted, screen still working but no QE/CI. - QE/CI tested feature: transparent topbar, ripple effect in dashboard, Adobe flash worked.

End of Part 1 ======================================================================= Part 2: Testing on Transmission/Encoder (Not working yet, just for reference and discussion purpose) In this section, I'll try to get LVDS working by focus on TransmissionID/EncoderID. I assume that my ATI HD 6470M is DCE 4.0 compatible because my HDMI port exactly matched this spec. From output, It tells me that LVDS port is using UNIPHY0. So there are possible 3 values to be tested: 0x1000, 0x0000, 0x2001.

* DCE 4.0 * - 3 DIG transmitter blocks UNPHY0/1/2 (links A and B). * Supports up to 6 digital outputs * - 6 DIG encoder blocks. * - DIG to PHY mapping is hardcoded * DIG1 drives UNIPHY0 link A, A+B 0x1000 0x0000 * DIG2 drives UNIPHY0 link B 0x2001 * DIG3 drives UNIPHY1 link A, A+B * DIG4 drives UNIPHY1 link B 0x2103 HDMI * DIG5 drives UNIPHY2 link A, A+B * DIG6 drives UNIPHY2 link B.

Be sure to grab a pre-order from the link below (MP3, WAV, CD and Vinyl - what more can you ask for?) and check out the video for 'Cirrus'. Download bonobo the north borders zip. One of my personal favorites from the Ninja Tunes label returns! Nice to see some fellow Ninja tunes and Bonobo fans on Has it Leaked! Dusty beats, sound arrangements like no other and vocal guests only the best can match, Bonobo is a serious force in the instrumental/beats/alternative scene. Bonobo recently teased us with first single 'Cirrus' and have now announced 'The North Borders' - His follow-up to 2010's 'Black Sands'.
