MVHR: read arg fail #2
Comments
Unfortunately same here (running Ubuntu 20.04 build on the 27" iMac 2018). Output of smc_dump_linux.sh is here |
Same here on a iMac Late 2012 with macOS Catalina. I think MVMR no longer exists. I suspect Target Display Mode does not work anymore with macOS Catalina. |
The MVHR and MVMR are not listed. I have a iMac Late 2013 and I think it should be supported, right? Should those keys always appear? or just only after the connection is detected? I'm trying to connect a Dell computer using a HDMI -> thunderbolt adapter. Do you have any suggestion on how to get the new keys @floe ? |
Hm, I think the only way to solve this would be to run SmcDumpKey on macOS, once with TDM active and once with TDM off, and compare the results... or alternatively, use the dtrace script on the dpd process. However, keep in mind that I tested this with Yosemite on a 2011 iMac, so things may have changed considerably since then... |
I'm getting this same error. I am using a late 2013 iMac 27" running manjaro (was on catalina previously) and have not been able to get TDM to work either on Mac OSX or linux |
same error here - running Ubuntu 22.10 on an Imac 27" 2011. running "sudo ./smc_dump_linux.sh |grep MVHR" does not find MVHR... |
Just an idea - macs before 2011 used to accept display port as in input for TDM - starting with 2011 Apple changed to Thunderbolt 2. Propaby the smc registers for TDM also changed (if handled by smc at all). Any thoughts or approaches to find the right registers? Is the any mac os source code ot documentation available? I dont have my mac os installed anymore, but maybe somebody could try floes recommended approach above? |
Yes, as I remember, TDM on Thunderbolt iMacs even works only with Thunderbolt intel macs, no luck for M series though. |
I'm having a slightly different error. iMac12,2 (2011).

similar issue here with an iMac 27" 2009 with geforce graphics and a MacBook Air 2015 running Ventura beautifully with OCLP Please press Enter to activate this console. read_smc get key type error enabled, toggling OFF ... read_smc get _key_type error send_byte(0x52, 0x0300) fail: 0x00 read_smc get key_type error disabled. already tested iMac with a monitor and a miniDP to HDMI adapter to see if the port is working, it is. |
Maybe you can try what floe suggested @Gelias212?
|
ok, I'll try it as soon as I get the new cable, could be a couple of weeks since I don't wanna waste money on useless cables that won't work. |
Thanks for the hack! Probably I'm doing something wrong but I get this error after running
sudo ./tdm_on.sh
on the iMac (running Ubuntu):Is that normal? The laptop (running Ubuntu as well) is connected but nothing happens.
