Moderators Jake Lo Posted August 30, 2014 Moderators Share Posted August 30, 2014 Can you confirm if you got full graphics acceleration? Perhaps try different platform-id. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tailgunner Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 Hi Jake See in attached 2 files how HD4000 is recognized, I m afraid there is no Full graphic acceleration as screens and windows are flickering a lot. I think there not much in chameleon.boot list. I checked the original chameleon boot list content of the tutorial . The both are the same. Mant thanks for you help Can you confirm if you got full graphics acceleration? Perhaps try different platform-id. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tailgunner Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 did you disable the geforce using dsdt edit as suggested in that link you provided. Hi Bronxteck I m afraid not because I did not see this in Tutorial. I ve read some folks have done it. I don't have much knowledge on DSDT editing although I know editors exists Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted September 3, 2014 Moderators Share Posted September 3, 2014 remove the following files or back it up somewhere and repair permission and reboot. See if it makes a difference. AppleGraphicsControl AppleTyMCEDriver AppleUpstreamUserClient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Jake Lo Posted October 7, 2014 Moderators Share Posted October 7, 2014 Hi Bronxteck I m afraid not because I did not see this in Tutorial. I ve read some folks have done it. I don't have much knowledge on DSDT editing although I know editors exists Thank you Sorry if this response is a little late, but it might help others reading this. The DSDT was already patched to disable the Nvidia and include the patch for HD 4000. I just notice the bootpack from the guide is for 10.9 which include a patched FB. If you're installing with 10.9.4 or 10.9.5, you'll lose QE/CI with the included FB patched for HDMI. You'll need a new patched FB. I have the issue for my E6430 with HD 4000. Restore with the vanilla kext and you should have QE/CI again but without HDMI audio. Let me know which version of Mavericks you're installing and I'll patch it for you. Note: not sure why the author install kexts to S/L/E rather than in E/E since he's using myHack method but I can validate that you could install all the patched kext to E/E and run myHack/myFix (quick) without an issue.
