Screen Resolutions

Open kostaskas opened this issue 5 years ago • 10 comments

Is it possible to add more resolutions on Minibook? THe HiDPI is too big and the normal resolution is so small.. Have tried everything in order to work but no luck

i believe both of those issues u openened are actually caused by the same thing(so will only be replying to one and may close the other) which is the fact that the screen in our device is native portrait instead of landscape as it is being utilized....this makes both adding new resolutions(which does indeed work BUT they only get added to the normal/non rotated list) and fixing clover difficult

Yes I understood, using Clover Configurator on Hackintosh, I have found an option "vertical" on Clover themes, I checked it but it doesn't seem it's saved, every time I save and rerun Confirurator, "vertical" is unchecked. Wonder if that makes theme to rotate correctly. For it's just the only "problem", if Clover is rotated, you can boot every OS from there (I have already done it Tetraboot, with Windows 10, Ubuntu, Hackintosh and Android x86)

Closed the other issue

A little of topic, to boot on all systems, you just choose the OS from Bios or from the bootloader?

@kostaskas have you found a way to add driver for sd card reader ? and how about the custom resolution ?

I have tried every kext found online, even for Realtek devices but no luck. Not have much time to check kext.

Tried to add resolution manually, but only every timer boot was damaged and macos didn't even start and must reinstall mac
