jose.fonseca Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Hi guys, I've managed to successfully install Mountain Lion 10.8.3 (unishit + multishit) on my HP Envy 17-1050ep. Everything is detected and working smoothly except for the graphics card - an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5850 - which I can't get to be recognized. This is what "System Reports > Graphics/Displays" reports:  Display: Type: GPU Bus: PCIe PCIe Lane Width: x16 VRAM (Total): 3MB Vendor: ATI (0x1002) Device ID: 0x68a1 Revision ID: 0x0000 Kernel Extension Info: No Kext Loaded Displays: Display: Resolution: 1024x768 Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888) Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes  Currently I must boot with GraphicsEnabler=No . I've tried almost every framebuffer personality using GraphicsEnabler=Yes AtiConfig=<personality> but to no avail, for I can't even get the system to display the login screen. Can anyone please help me out with getting the card to be recognized? I don't really care about HDMI, extra monitors or any other "advanced" functionality as long as I can get full resolution.
