  1. Thanks EdgyVenison, unfortunately it literally only has the retina display as the only option (no mirror windows checkbox or gather dispalys button enabled).
  2. So it sounds like my 2014 MacBook Pro (retina) Iris Pro 5100 is one of the affected ones, and not easily "eGPU'able". That said, just confirming that I'm seeing similar behaviors as y'all in that in OSX it shows everything as being good (drivers showing up and detected, System Info showing the right card info, etc), just no external display capabilities. So, @goalque did you end up patching those 2 files using the patcher you linked earlier (https://github.com/Piker-Alpha/AppleIntelFramebufferAzul.sh)? I couldn't tell if you ended up using that or just ripped the correct kexts from older installs of mavericks, etc. If you did get the kexts and just replaced them, could you share them with us? I'm unable to reinstall OSX on my laptop as it is a work laptop, and I work remote (security policies and such our IT staff would have to reinstall, etc). Thanks guys/gals, for y'all tackling these complicated issues with eGPU setups!
  3. Hey there EdgyVenison. I have a similar setup for my eGPU. I followed, first Jose Cordova's guide, then came across yours and double checked the two and they are very similar in steps (while watching Jose's video, I even documented the steps to a gist here https://gist.github.com/megalithic/50cebb545911e10c4078 -- even linked the two of you at the bottom). Anyway, I'm having problems. When first starting up my mbp the cpu fan will spin, so i know it's alive (and the psu fan is going, and the AKiTiO's lights are on). My monitors will blink to life, then immediately say they don't have a signal. Here's a screen shot of system information showing the GTX 960 verified (Screen Shot on 2015-04-14 at 19:02:59.png • Droplr) Here's a screen shot of the nVidia driver control panel showing it recognized as well (Screen Shot on 2015-04-14 at 19:03:31.png • Droplr) I've got my monitors connected to the GTX 960 via display port plugs. I've got the the AKiTiO Thunder2 connected via this Thunderbolt cable Amazon.com: StarTech.com 1m Thunderbolt Cable - M/M (TBOLTMM1M): Computers & Accessories won't Any thoughts as to why the monitors won't fire up (and of course they don't show as displays in OSX). If i shut the laptop lid it "sees" monitors plugged in because the laptop won't go to sleep. Would LOVE to get your help or additional thoughts/suggestions on this. Thanks much!
