Refind doesn't have an option to use outb as in grub. I have set OSX preferences to "battery saving", so that the firmware sets up the 9400 initially, but the 9600 is still technically enabled. It shows up in lspci, etc. Whenever I test the 9600, I change the setting in OSX back to "performance". So yes, with both cards enabled, the 9400 works without corruption. > When using the 9600M GT without acceleration, do you have screen corruption > in VT each time? If so, could you try to modify the patch a bit, like: > - removing the write to 0x100c1c; > - if removing the write doesn't work, changing the offset applied to > priv->r100c08 maybe testing all 4-multiples should do it, from 0 to 28. I've only tested the 9600 about 10 times, but I've always had corruption. I will try your changes and see if it makes a difference.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
