OSX 10.11.3

Open a-taranto opened this issue 9 years ago • 13 comments

Hi, I have a LG 25” Class 21:9 UltraWide® IPS Monitor (25UM65-P)... I had the patch working great on my previous osx (10.11.1) but it was lost with the upgrade. I have downloaded the patch but when I input the command lines in to Terminal, nothing happens. Can you Assist @Floris497?

I can help you in about an hour or two, try adding the IOKit MD5 it's somewhere explained in the issues.

Interested in the solution. I have two 25UM57-P LG 25 "LED IPS work perfectly on a Mac Mini 2012 through his script.

I also wanted to thank them for their work. And if you can open an account for donations I'm sure many of us would like to contribute some money.

I've updated the script, i hope it works :) i'm currently doing an externalGPU project that limits me from updating my Mac properly, so i have to rely on some external sources, but it will be fine when we move to 10.11.4 :)

I'm not sure about donations, and where to store the money and who has the right to use the money.. What would be the best way to accept donations? i could just put my paypal information in the readme, i have no experience with earning money from this kind of work.

A simple question: AMD is unsupported at the moment on 10.11.3? Thanks

Slumber86 avatar Feb 02 '16 00:02 Slumber86

It is not unsupported, it has just not been updated because nobody uses it. Do I need to make it?

Floris497 avatar Feb 02 '16 06:02 Floris497

Yes if you can, Thank you. My macbook pro early 2011 has an ATI, do you need. the checksum?

Thanks

$ md5 -q /System/Library/Extensions/AMDSupport.kext/Contents/MacOS/AMDSupport ac68dd9427ff690c4aac12f9abfcf708

I'll make it when i get to my main machine, You can try replacing an old md5 and see if it just works, but you might break the driver.

This can be a problem :smiling_imp: I'm not much into low level patching, so i can try to do it myself. What kind of tools do you use? hex editor?

Thanks

It's a little different than the Nvidia one, and i have actually never done the AMD one, but it's the same principal. there are 2 values that limit. i think they are 165MHz, change them to 400MHz or something. if you drag a file into xcode, and get the little file list on the left, right click view as > hex, makes a great hex editor. the patch has the value it needs to change and a little piece in front of that to make sure no other values are changed. I currently have no time to find out how it works exactly, and also no way of testing.. :/

I can give you more instruction if you want, but please open a new issue. this way people don't get all the notifications.
