I have an Aspire TC-780, a while back I did the connector patching for HDMI, but now I want to get VGA working too. As this is a Kaby Lake machine, VGA should be DisplayPort internally, as it has been since Skylake, and I verified this by booting in VESA mode, and indeed, I did get VGA output there. If it truly was VGA internally, it wouldn't work, even in VESA. Without VESA, I get no signal after verbose, I figured I just needed to do connector patching, typical hackintosh things, so I just enabled screen sharing, turned it on with the VGA monitor and connected into it on another hack, but here's the issue: macOS isn't even detecting the VGA monitor. It's not like it's outputting to an incorrect connector, no, there's straight up no display0 in the ioreg, it's acting like no monitor is detected. I checked, and framebuffer 0 and 2 are already set to DisplayPort, 1 is set to HDMI from previous connector patching (it was DisplayPort originally). My only guess is I need a 4 connector-count framebuffer, but Kaby Lake desktop only has 3 connector-count framebuffers, so I'm not sure what to do in this case. Is there any hope of getting VGA working? I am currently running Ventura.
