After rebooting all the USB ports (USB2 and USB3) will be properly identified and with the proper speed.įor the system to work properly ( Shutdown / Reboot, etc.) one must choose MacPro5,1 as the Product Model in Clover SMBIOS. Remove GenericUSBXHCI.kext from /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/other and install USBInjectall.kext along with XLNCUSBFix.kext. On the other hand I fixed the problem with the USB3 ports.
HOW TO INSTALL CLOVER BOOTLOADER ON MOJAVE SERIES
Shutdown / Reboot will probably never work properly on Vanilla AMD Mojave on FX series (mine FX-6300) CPUs. All USB ports working and proble with Shutdown and Reboot. So, GenericUSBXHCI.kext went back into Clover injected kexts. Almost all the USB 3.0 ports (integrated and discrete card) were off. The removal of GenericUSBXHCI.kext from Clover resulted in screwing up the sound (VoodooHDA) and the USB ports that were previously identified by the system. So, I changed the power management to let the system be always ON and have only the display go to sleep. It fixed the reboot problem but not the shutdown.Īnother problem that I have is that if the system goes to Sleep mode it never wakes. I read somewhere that somebody with the same CPU solved the problem by removing the GenericUSBXHCI.kext from the kexts injected by Clover. It stays in limbo, neither shutting down nor rebooting. Also, when you issue Reboot the process starts but it never cycles back. When you issue Shutdown, the system start the process, it reports that the CPU has halted, the screen goes black but the ON light on the box never goes out and the fans keep working. This is probably the case, since others made the Mojave desktop run on non-Metal hardware.For some strange reason the Vanilla (patches for AMD in Clover bootloader) AMD Mojave installation fails to completely shutdown and reboot properly on a FX-6300 CPU based system (motherboard GIGABYTE 990XA-UD3).
HOW TO INSTALL CLOVER BOOTLOADER ON MOJAVE PATCH
If so, some patch to keep the kext support active could probably be easily created by someone who is more advanced then me. But one these two happens:ġ) Once the desktop needs to loaded, something that requires Metal is executed and it crashes the system Ģ) The kext that supported the GPU during installation is deactivated once the desktop is loaded. This means that the kexts are already there, somewhere. If High Sierra supports this old GPU, Mojave does it well, at least in a way. Perhaps putting old Mountain Lion GeForce 6200 into the Clover EFI folder alongside FakeSMC shall do, but probably not. I am not that advanced to edit the kexts myself.
Maybe it sound unbelievable, but it is true. GeForce Tesla kexts would probably not work with my GPU. It's fitted with a good old Penryn C2D T9300, FSB800 someone who is familiar with this kind of things seems fairly easy, for someone who has not tried such things by far seems very hard. My D630 runs it perfectly so far, with graphics acceleration on its nVidia Quadro NVS 135M (a derivative of GeForce 8400M GS, G86M chip) using above method for officially unsupported nVidia GPUs. Very easy to do and it works as sorry for the late reply but, yes, your T9600 will be fine for Mojave. The method used to get officlally unsupported GPUs like HD3000 or some older HighSierra-compatible nVidia models supported under Mojave was explained above. Even the 7xxx family were dropped after Lion. For information actually with Clover: - Audio works but i have some problem every. So for this jump to Yosemite to the new os X, i want to change my bootloader Clover and go to Chimera.
Those cards were not supported beyond Leopard if I remember correctly. Hello people, i come to you because this Monday 8th is the new keynote for Apple and 10.11 will be announced. "an ancient Nvidia 6200 GPU that works with High Sierra" ? I suppose it depends on your definition of "works".
