High Sierra in Dell Latitude E6230 with Clover... everything works but 3 things :(

[jedko911]

I have similar problem. My webcam and left USB (combined with e-sata) doesn't work.

When I had Sierra webcam and left usb has working.

I tried to add to EFI volume to /Clover/kexts/other EAPDfix.kext but nothing. I also replaced in /EFI/Clover/kexts/other FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_XHCIMux.kext but nothing.

 

any help?

Those 3 kexts really should go into /L/E

I copied those 3 kexts from my Sierra installation to /L/E, than repaired kext cache and still nothing

Hi Jake,

Same problem here - the webcam is not working on my E6230 following upgrade to High Sierra.  I suspect it has something to do with how I interpret the instructions in Note (1) Step 2 of your High Sierra Guide.

At any rate, I've attached my debug file.  Thanks for any suggestions-

I think I made a mistake in same step as scram69

check to see it it shows on your USB bus. there are usb kext changes between sierra and high sierra. you might need to update your clover usb patches

Here's my bootpack for High Sierra.

No USBInjectAll nor FakePCIID_XHCIMux needed.

All USB ports working

Webcam working after sleep

ESata/USB port working after sleep

Audio working after sleep

Internal Spkr/Headphone Autoswitch working

I replaced files in EFI/Clover folder with your bootpack and it is working.

 

thanks Jake Lo

Yes - thanks Jake once again for your expert help.  I tried for a while some troubleshooting steps to understand exactly why I had no webcam (as Bronxteck points out, it did not show up on any USB bus).  You know, teach a man to fish and all...

 

I first tried just replacing my kexts with yours (of course fixing permissions and re-building the cache) - no dice

Then I tried kexts and your DSDT - still no webcam

Then I tried opening yours and my config.plist side by side in Clover Confgurator and manually matching the settings - still couldn't get the webcam to work.

Finally, I just edited your config.plist and dropped in my SN, BSN, and smUUID, and bingo - webcam works.

 

I did attempt to very carefully match the kext patch info in Clover Configurator between yours and my config.plist, but could not get the webcam to show up using my config.plist.  So if you know what it is in the clover config file that unlocks the USB for the camera, please let us know...

 

Thanks again-

Steve
