Hey everyone,

I just got myself a new rig and I've been trying to use my PC on my Panasonic TV without any success.

I'm running my Hackintosh on a LG screen on DVI, but when I connect with HDMI, OS X recognizes the TV and puts the LG as a second screen and even knows that the new display is a Panasonic TV but I get not video on the TV.

When I go on Windows, everything works perfectly, I also tried another cable with no success.

Here are my specs:
Gigabyte Z68X-UD5-B3
i7 2600k
Sapphire Radeon HD 6850

Thanks!

Good question...

I didn't make any changes to that during the install process, does that mean i'm Graphics=Yes?


-EDIT-: Running GraphicsEnabler=Yes

Try running GE=N and see if that works.

Just something weird with the driver or the actual GFX card. Just so you know, having GE=N makes the DVD Player app crash and Steam games will crash as well.

If you want to have a functional DVD Player app and be able to play Steam games, you must have GE=Y!

Try GraphicsEnabler=Yes and AtiConfig=Duckweed

That should give you working DVI (only 1 port), DP and HDMI with full QE and no crashed with dvd player or steam games. You may need to be running a recent version of Chameleon. Not sure if Chimera has the latest ati.c with ATI device id's.

Alright i'll try that out.

I'm pretty sure I'm running Chimera. How do. I switch to chameleon? Just install with Multibeast and that's it?
