Did it work OOB or with an add-on driver in Sonoma?

Don't expect much support if you require assistance, Tiger and Leopard are just too old and you'll have trouble finding people who know about it now. I very much doubt that your 22 years old AGP Rage6 ATI Radeon 345M will be supported but you never know... You can always check the device ids of the oldest supported ATI/AMD platforms in the relevant drivers of Leopard combo update to begin with. I expect it would be old ATIRadeon.kext. Your GPU id should be 1002:4337. You may also consult everymac.com and look for very ancient pre-Intel Apple Mac computers that may have been fitted with GPUs of that generation/family/architecture and the latest OS X version that supports them (probably Tiger 10.4.11) but know that the oldest 2006 Intel MacBook/MacBook Pro/iMac were fitted with Intel GMA950 and ATI X1600 GPUs.

Sorry that injecting EDID value did not work. You could also try experimenting with a different KBL frame buffer; like 0x59160000 or 0x591b0000.

Yes, that's what I was expecting. Your graphics config looks spot on. If you inspect the screen's EDID information, you will notice that the reported data differs between HDMI output and USB-c Dock output: HDMI: <00 ff ff ff ff ff ff 00 05 e3 78 27 d7 00 00 00 09 1b 01 03 80 3c 22 78 2a a5 95 a6 56 50 a0 26 0d 50 54 bf ef 00 d1 c0 b3 00 95 00 81 80 81 40 81 c0 01 01 01 01 56 5e 00 a0 a0 a0 29 50 30 20 35 00 55 50 21 00 00 1e 00 00 00 fd 00 32 4c 1e 63 1e 00 0a 20 20 20 20 20 20 00 00 00 fc 00 32 37 37 38 58 0a 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00 00 00 ff 00 47 4a 4c 48 33 48 41 30 30 30 32 31 35 01 fc 02 03 1e f1 4b 10 1f 05 14 04 13 03 12 02 11 01 23 09 07 07 83 01 00 00 65 03 0c 00 10 00 02 3a 80 18 71 38 2d 40 58 2c 45 00 55 50 21 00 00 1e 01 1d 00 72 51 d0 1e 20 6e 28 55 00 55 50 21 00 00 1e 8c 0a d0 8a 20 e0 2d 10 10 3e 96 00 55 50 21 00 00 18 8c 0a d0 90 20 40 31 20 0c 40 55 00 55 50 21 00 00 18 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 6d> Dock (both): <00 ff ff ff ff ff ff 00 05 e3 90 27 64 1f 00 00 34 1c 01 04 a5 3c 22 78 3a 48 15 a7 56 52 9c 27 0f 50 54 bf ef 00 d1 c0 b3 00 95 00 81 80 81 40 81 c0 01 01 01 01 56 5e 00 a0 a0 a0 29 50 30 20 35 00 55 50 21 00 00 1e 00 00 00 fd 00 32 4c 1e 63 1e 01 0a 20 20 20 20 20 20 00 00 00 fc 00 51 32 37 39 30 0a 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 00 00 00 ff 00 47 51 4d 4a 43 48 41 30 30 38 30 33 36 01 9a 02 03 1e f1 4b 01 03 05 14 04 13 1f 12 02 11 90 23 09 07 07 83 01 00 00 65 03 0c 00 10 00 02 3a 80 18 71 38 2d 40 58 2c 45 00 55 50 21 00 00 1e 01 1d 00 72 51 d0 1e 20 6e 28 55 00 55 50 21 00 00 1e 8c 0a d0 8a 20 e0 2d 10 10 3e 96 00 55 50 21 00 00 18 8c 0a d0 90 20 40 31 20 0c 40 55 00 55 50 21 00 00 18 f0 3c 00 d0 51 a0 35 50 60 88 3a 00 55 50 21 00 00 1c 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 77> I would suggest you try and inject the HDMI EDID value as additional property in your graphics configuration. Target AAPL02,override-no-connect since this external screen should be 2nd display out of FB@2 and specify the EDID value as DATA type without any space between the bytes. Refer to the Whatevergreen user manual if need be. Can't remember if the AAPL0x unit digit must match the connector's number. You'll be able to check that out in IOReg after reboot (under FB@2->display->AppleDisplay). Can't be AAPL00 for sure as that would be your built-in screen. You may also try to patch connector con2 to HDMI type as per connector con1 though I'm not convinced this will take effect and change anything.

'tempted to say it's a likely EDID issue but you opted to post screenshots of your IOREg rather the IOReg themselves as asked.

Sonoma dropped support for all remaining Broadcom "legacy" cards that were supported up to Ventura, this including those based on BCM4360 chipset family.

Seems more to be an issue with the USB-c output. Post an IOReg with Dock plugged in and screen set to 1080p + screen set to 1440p.

Released September 16th, 2024. Build 23H124. Bug fixes ans security update. Safe to install on our Hackintosh platforms. Also released on September 16th: macOS Ventura Security Update 13.7 (Build 22H123) View full article

Above procedure is good for Sequoia too.

Released Sep. 16th, 2024. Version 15.0, build 24A335 (same as RC published Sep. 10th). Sonoma drops official support for Amber Lake MacBook Air8,1/8,2 thereby raising the minimum MacBook Air platform to final 2020 Ice Lake-based MBA9,1. The rest of the supported platforms remain identical to Sonoma. Support for Kaby Lake graphics remain provided with all KBL kexts still present so good news to all owners of Skylake laptops who will all be able to run Sequoia with full acceleration through the SKL graphics patch required since Ventura. For other iGPUs, patches are available through OCLP tool to regain graphics acceleration. Officially supported Intel platforms are now limited to : iMac19,x (8th gen. Coffee Lake) iMacPro1,1 (Skylake Xeon) MacBookPro15,x (8th gen. Coffee Lake) Macmini8,1 (8th gen Coffee Lake) MacPro7,1 (Cacade Lake) With Sequoia, Apple introduced artificial intelligence features that are only available to Apple Silicon models. Intel platforms are not compatible with these. NB: macOS Monterey is now officially unsupported. View full article

Released September 9th, 2024. Build 24A335. Smooth update on Hackintosh, as usual. OCLP root patching required afterwards, also as usual. Same Clover r5159 setup for my Dell Latitude E7270 as used with initial beta3 version and posted here.

There is substantial documentation on the Dortania site. Failing that, you may opt for a Clover classic installation on which you'll apply OCLP patching; that's what I do with my unsupported laptops.

For Sonoma, it's exactly the same as for Ventura which dropped official support for Haswell platforms; as such, no native support for Haswell graphics HD4400/4600. In addition, Sonoma dropped support for legacy Broadcom wireless cards. See our previous communications on these matters. I would expect there are existing threads about installing/running Ventura and/or Sonoma on Haswell laptops, whether Dell or otherwise. https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/17636-macos-ventura-is-out https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/18228-macos-sonoma-140-beta-1-early-feedback-and-findings https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/19456-oclp-patcher-support-for-legacy-broadcom-wireless-cards-in-sonoma https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/19519-macos-sonoma-is-out https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/20304-macos-sonoma-144-update-is-out https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/19730-wifi-in-sonoma-patching-for-legacy-broadcom-wireless-cards/ OCLP brings everything back to life: graphics acceleration and wireless (provided you have the required card).

No support for SKL graphics in Sonoma so no point in trying/using framebuffer 0x19120000. That's dead in the water... The thing is that Desktop HD530 tends to be difficult to get properly supported in macOS. You may have to experiment with other KBL framebuffer layouts/device ids. You got the link for the Whatevergreen user manual. Alternatively a cheap AMD RX560 or WX4100 graphics card (< $100/£100/100€) will work OOB.

Hello, your graphics settings are inadequate. You need to fully fake KBL graphics to have any hope of graphics acceleration in Sonoma. Injecting a KBL framzbuffer layout is one thing, you also need to fake a KBL iGPU device id. Try these settings instead: AAPL,ig-platform-id 00001259 DATA device-id 12590000 DATA framebuffer-patch-enable 1 NUMBER framebuffer-fbmem 00003001 DATA framebuffer-stolemem 00009000 DATA framebuffer-con1-enable 1 NUMBER framebuffer-con1-type 00080000 DATA If that does not provide you with graphic acceleration, experiment with the various KBL frame buffer layout ids and iGPU device ids as documented in the WEG User Manual. Make sure you use the latest version of Whatevergreen kext.

No, they don't have any issue on the matter; they just don't support this, even in other OS like Windows. The only thing you can wake through keyboard and touchpad is the screen.

Afaik, that's pretty standard on Hackintosh laptops and most certainly on all the Dell ones I've had (and I've had a few...).

Released August 12th, 2024. Build 24A5320a. Smooth update on Hackintosh, as usual. OCLP root patching required afterwards, also as usual. Same Clover r5159 setup for my Dell Latitude E7270 as used with initial beta3 version and posted here. Good news: issue of mounting partitions (such as EFI partition for instance) encountered with beta 5 is sorted; everything back to the norm.

Hence why I said: "(config file + ACPI folder + kext folder, rest not required)"... This being said, looking at your setup: make sure you update your add-on kexts to latest version your graphics config appears too complex and incorrect to me. I recommend you stick to just this: In my pre-Big Sur days, I was using these KBL graphics settings my 7490: AAPL,ig-platform-id 00001659 DATA device-id 16590000 DATA Not your ABL settings. I think I also had far less patched ACPI tables injected. Check your quirks settings.

Full hardware specs? Zipped copy of your EFI (config file + ACPI folder + kext folder, rest not required)? Verbose output/screenshot of last info before boot loop?
