Mac mini Mid 2010: GPU not recognized (MCP89)

probonopd commented 2 years ago

On Mac mini Mid 2010 (Macmini4,1) the NVIDIA GeForce 320M GPU is not recognized correctly by initgfx on the helloSystem 0.7.0 Live ISO.

MCP89 [GeForce 320M]

probonopd commented 2 years ago

Possibly GeForce 320M needs to be added to nvidia_340_ids.

Doing this leads to an immediate reboot as soon as initgfx is starting Xorg!

https://bsd-hardware.info/?id=pci:10de-08a4-106b-00c0 says :

You need to install the following additional drivers for the device to work properly: nvidia (from 295.75 to 340.108)

Ignore GeForce 320M. Trying the NVIDIA drivers on it lead to a system crash on a MacBook Air.

Here are the interesting bits from the kernel dump (let me know if you want to see all of it)

probonopd commented 2 years ago

Adding GeForce 320M to nvidia_304_ids does not lead to the crash. nvidia.ko gets loaded but /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.xonf.d/00-video.initgfx.conf is still using scfb.

During verbose boot, getting

Auto-detectiong graphics driver :
eval: nv_xorg_cfg: not found

@danfe in https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=233069

Yes, SUB_FILES were not adjusted in the update to 410.104. Please try with the latest update to 430.50 in ports r516138.

I wonder whether @tehpeh ever got it to work...

Thing is, 430.50 does not seem to be available anymore according to "slave ports" on https://www.freshports.org/x11/nvidia-driver... maybe we should try 470?

probonopd commented 2 years ago

When I add GeForce 320M to nvidia_latest_ids here, then I get:

@probonopd I never did get it to work. I have since given up on Apple hardware; too many proprietary things inside like Broadcom chips etc. Also they've become completely user non-serviceable. The Mac Mini in question now runs ESXi.

tehpeh commented 2 years ago

The 320M was a bit of a rare unit, it didn't have its own memory and instead shared from the system. I suspect it will never work unfortunately.

bsduck commented 2 years ago

I have a GT 320M in a HP laptop and last time I tried (probably last year) it was recognised properly and supported by nvidia-340.

probonopd commented 11 months ago

The Mac mini Mid 2010 (Macmini4,1) does boot hello-0.9.0_0I37-FreeBSD-13.2-amd64.iso, but it is not loading any Nvidia driver. Next step: Try to get nvidia-340 loaded.

probonopd commented 11 months ago

Also affects MacBookPro7,1 (A1278) as per https://github.com/helloSystem/ISO/issues/550.
