mefflecakes Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 @Jake Lo thanks, but that unfortunately didn't help, I just ended up with a blank display. @Hervé ok, I appreciate your help so far. I'll experiment and see if I have any success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mefflecakes Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 Ok, so I remembered the server in the cupboard under the stairs is a 7040, so I tried using @Jake Lo's config and it worked first time The very last thing I'd like to ask is related to the unplugging and plugging in any video cable, I lose image but when I plug the game back in it doesn't ever come back. Is thanks config related or something I just need to live with? The reason I ask is that I have a display port switcher box and if I don't have the monitor using the correct cable, I have to hold the power button to turn it off, then turn it on again..

Administrators Hervé Posted November 27, 2020 Administrators Share Posted November 27, 2020 @mefflecakes, Mario and I played on his Skylake Optiplex 7050 (i5-6600 CPU) with HD530 graphics. We 1st got HDMI + DP working with standard SKL platform-id 0x19120000, then HDMI+DP+DP, i.e. 3 x displays after injecting 4th connector 0306... Secret was to bypass restrictions imposed by AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy kext (a PlugIn of AppleGraphicsControl kext) with boot arg agdpmod=pikera. All details posted here.
