yudi.153 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Hi, I installed High Sierra quite difficultly on my L502x . and got the vanilla kexts , but my Graphics are not working properly.. I get heavy glitches and my system hangs while using Safari , for example if I minimize Safari it gets hanged and then I have to forcibly restart my laptop. Please guide me some easy way so I can work this out. I am using Clover v4297. I previously used a distro. But now I am using the High Sierra app downloaded from Mac Store.

Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 11, 2017 Administrators Share Posted December 11, 2017 so you where not able to use anything for Sierra you posted here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black.dragon74 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Use the attached config.plist file. Note: I have only changed SMBIOS and injected graphics properties. Note2: You may see that snb-platform-id in Devices > Add Properties is enabled but the other two patches namely, hda-gfx and AAPL,os-info are disabled. You may try toggling them incase you don't get QE/CI. Regards config.plist.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted December 11, 2017 Administrators Share Posted December 11, 2017 Your IOReg shows a system with dual GPU so if you want to run on the HD3000 iGPU only, you probably ought to disable the nVidia dGPU to begin with. This can be done through DSDT + SSDT patching. You can try the patched files below in your Clover ACPI/patched folder: DSDT.zip SSDT-1.zip Then, on the basis that you have a HiRes built-in LCD, I would recommend that, instead of using the ACPI patching method advocated by black.dragon74, you actually setup HD3000 graphics as follows using Clover Configurator app: adjust your Clover config as follows because the current one is rather erroneous: change GFX0 to iGPU ACPI patch (add the USB controller patches too) inject Intel graphics set SNB layout-id to 0x00020000 set DualLink to 1 set SMBIOS profile to MacBookPro8,3 Once this is done, generate your CPU-specific power management SSDT using Pike R Alpha's well-known generator tool and adjust your Clover config from this: to this: Place the generated SSDT in your Clover ACPI/patched folder and reboot. Hopefully, you'll be all set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yudi.153 Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 @ Your IOReg shows a system with dual GPU so if you want to run on the HD3000 iGPU only, you probably ought to disable the nVidia dGPU to begin with. This can be done through DSDT + SSDT patching. You can try the patched files below in your Clover ACPI/patched folder: DSDT.zip SSDT-1.zip Well sir these files when I placed into Clover/acpi/patched, and opened the system preferences->Graphics/displays . I still see both of my GPU's there... So I planned to place the previous DSDT and SSDT files which you and Jake Lo provided me in previous post and it showed me only the Intel GPU in my preferences... attaching those files. Else than that the only part I don't get is the Pike R Alpha's well-known generator tool , how to generate ssdt from this file? and secondly my lcd is 1366x768 so do I need to set DualLink to 1?

yudi.153 Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 sorry here are those attached files from previous post muddassarL502x.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yudi.153 Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 and now I stand exactly where I previously was with all these above steps just skipping the dual link part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
