Hey all. I am back after not using macOS for a few weeks (needed more screens for work). Now after not using macOS for a couple of weeks I booted it up and updated to latest Ventura but I am not able to reach the deaktop. I have the latest OC (as of this post) and Kexts are up to date, no config changes besides what changes have been made to OC. When I say I cannot reach the desktop, I can via VNC so I know it is all working but on my laptops screen all I can see is the loading bar about half way and the Apple logo. I can VNC in and it all works except I have 7mb video ram so I know it is a graphics issue. I have tried 6-7 different framebuffers and some boot to desktop with 7mb, others don’t boot at all and others bring me to needing to VNC in. I have tried a fresh install of the latest beta (as of this post) 13.2 with no luck. I am currently getting 13.1 release in case it is a macOS change but any assistance is appreciated.

This was the fix. I removed all traces of the app, downloaded the newest Kexts and app again. Deleted the "old" kexts from EFI, moved the new ones into EFI and rebooted.This removed the app from startup and background tasks. I then launched the app and added it to the login items, rebooted and all seems to be good.

If I turn on my pc the gadget runs automatically and gives that error. If I choose the quit option then launch the gadget from apps it works perfectly.

Yeah I updated the app. It’s not listed in login items, just background permissions.

So for the longest time now i have had the error shown in the screen shot and i am finally sick of it. Please help me. I have the latest app and kexts and latest OC with RC Ventura and it is still happening. I believe the kext order is correct.

Unfortunately no, I ended up changing smbios to MacBookPro15,1 from 16,4 which helped then went through busids and now it works. I have tried the force online boot arg but that causes a reboot before I reach the desktop.

To follow up up my HDMI out issues I now have HDMI display out but the only way it works is to hot plug the monitor once in macOS and the same after sleep.

I just read that multi monitor setups need boot arg agdpmod=vit9696? Is this correct for laptops?

Ok so I’ve started a new job and need to use dual screens with my laptop. I’ve been using Winblows until now but can’t do it anymore. Need my macOS back. I have confirmed my HDMI is connected to my iGPU. I am just unsure how to get at minimum display output working. HDMI audio does not matter for the time being. I will upload my config and ioreg very soon, anything else that’s needed please let me know but I really need to get this going today. Have attached ioreg and config. With this basic config when i plug in HDMI my laptop screen goes black then comes back after a second or two like it is detecting the connection. Archive.zip

New problem. Using latest release 0.7.1 Scratch that, issue was......user 😞

OpenCore + @fabiosun for the win config.plist.zip

Do you have a GitHub account? I have all my EFI’s on there in private repos.

With clover I get an almost instant KP. I need to recheck and update Clover where needed though. I have not tried with OC 0.8.1 version of cleannvram. Will try as soon as I can and report back. Are newer versions not cleaning? Do the devs know this?

I am thinking about starting with a fresh EFI with the bare minimum and see what happens. It’s just odd that Monterey works fine but black screen with Ventura. Does Ventura use PCIe gen3 or 4?

I forgot to mention I did all these tests without any graphics device properties.

I wish I had better news. I’ve tried 3 different fresh installs of Beta 1. No luck on either try. I have tried with your modified items and with your modified items plus WEG with boot args adgpmod=pikera and adgpmod=ignore. I am trying again now with the same setup but with -wegoff. With weg and both boot-args Monterey shows black screen, wegoff or no WEG at all works fine but not with Ventura. Creating a beta 2 installer now to try. Maybe I’ll have more luck. Beta 2 fresh install still ends in black screen / no signal. Could it be a smbios problem with Ventura? I’m using MacPro7,1 due to my graphics card. Should I try iMacPro? Will my GPU’s DP port still work?

Ok I’ll give it a try. What did you change?

Since the release of Ventura I’ve been trying to get it installed on my AMD machine. We’re now at beta 3 and I am still at a loss. I am using OpenCore with the fixes for Beta 3 and AMD patches for 13. The install appears to go through fine until the initial setup pages should appear and all I get is a black screen. EFI attached is updated for Beta 3 and Lily updated. Still works with Monterey. EFI.zip

I have tried Clover but I get a KP. I will update my patches and test again. I will post in international section next time, my apologies. Google translated this forum into English so I thought nothing of it.

Yea I am trying to use this on Ventura. I will update the min max values and remove GPU injection and try again when I can. What is the new max? Can we just use 99.99? I got the kernel patches from the amd-OS X GitHub so I assumed they were correct.

Guys please help, I’m at a loss with Ventura on AMD. It boots and installs but instead of the initial setup I get a black or grey screen. It sometimes goes past this but when I get to network selection I get an instant reboot. Monterey works great. Attached my EFI for diagnosis. EFI.zip

So far so good. Frequencies are still different than OpenCores though. OpenCore left Clover 5144 with new quirk on the right. I will continue to test via USB boot until I am happy 🙂 I am just glad we were able to get Clover back on AMD working....mostly. Google Chrome and GitHub Desktop applications are currently not working.

@fabiosun Can I get a sanity check on my config. All I have done is add and enable the new quirk but I am unsure of which patches to remove. config.plist.zip

Yes 12.3 is almost right. Who knows maybe beta 2 plus Clover new Provide CPU Info may get us back on track. @fabiosun do you use google chrome? If so is it working? If not can you test. Mines loads then just closes on AMD only.
