Fn HotKey and ALS sensor driver for Asus Notebooks

[P3TR05]

 

 

You need some dsdt edits for my kext to work and i've attached the patch files as well in the first post. Your attached dsdt is corrupted so try to send me your dump based on DSDT/SSDT patching thread so I can patch it properly for this and everything else to work.

 

Fixed dsdt.

Has anyone gotten this driver to work on an ASUS VivoBook S200E, X202E or Q200E?

 

I tried installing it, but none of the functions work. This laptop doesn't have backlit keys, so I didn't worry about the DSDT edits.

For Brightness keys to work, you have to patch the dsdt and i've included this patch in the first post. Did you try that?

 

 

 

But of course.  Still nothing.  It's the damn Optimus card.

I can't figure out how to get the FN keys going using the DSDT edits and the kexts. Plus I'm having issues with sleep, display brightness, and battery. I wonder if it's possible to add sound using DSDT instead of using voodoohda? Not too sure so I need a bit of help. hehe Thanks in advance.

 

EDIT: I edited and fixed all the errors in the DSDT and added somethings to eliminate Natit.kext. Just the things I mentioned above needs fixing.

I've attached the necessary DSDT edits in a form of a patch to get the ambient light sensor working:
