antrieb Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 Removed the unneeded files like Jake advised. Then re-run the kextcache commends and got error 17. Rebooted....same old - same old...no improvements/changes. KP & error message still present. my clover-kexts-folder looks like this now: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted March 10, 2017 Administrators Share Posted March 10, 2017 the "LE" folder in "Other" those kexts are supposed to be in Library /Extensions not there. you can try removing the disable turbo kext also. What bios version is your machine at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antrieb Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 Bios version is A06. I had installed the kexts from /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/LE during my post installation process. So they were there. I just didn't delete the folder .../Other/LE/. Now, the folder .../Other/LE/ is deleted. kextcache re-run until error 17 came up. Rebooted. Still no change. It looks like I need to reinstall, huh? To me it looks like the kextcache is not rebuilding properlyafter any changes... org.rehabman.voodoo.driver.PS2Keyboard and org.tgwbd.driver.NullCPUPowerManagement are still there like zombies.

Administrators Hervé Posted March 10, 2017 Administrators Share Posted March 10, 2017 If you've rebuilt your cache and there are still traces of the offending kexts, try and locate them on the disk. From Terminal, type: sudo find / -name NullCPUPowerManagement.kext -print 2>/dev/null and repeat this for the VoodooPS2Controller kext. One question: this EFI folder you're looking at, is at at the root of your Sierra partition or in the mounted EFI partition? Make sure to look in the right place...

antrieb Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 I am running my Sierra installed on an USB3 drive. The /EFI/CLOVER where I am looking at is on the mounted /EFI partition, I don't see a folder /EFI under the root of Sierra partition. The find command does find both kexts (NullCPUPower* and *PS2*) in different folders like Documents and Downloads only, none of them is in either /S/L/E or /L/E.

Administrators Hervé Posted March 10, 2017 Administrators Share Posted March 10, 2017 Then the offending kexts are still cached. Try and manually delete cache folders + prelinked kernel, then rebuild the cache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antrieb Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 ...sounds like kind of a right thing to do and try, but this is above my pay grade...I don't know how to proceed exactly. If you could provide the needed bash command lines - would be very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted March 10, 2017 Administrators Share Posted March 10, 2017 From Terminal, type the following commands.1) to remove prelinked kernel (it should auto re-generate): sudo rm -f /System/Library/PrelinkedKernels/prelinkedkernel 2) to remove kext cache: sudo rm -Rf /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/* 2) to rebuild cache + prelinked kernel: sudo touch -f /S*/L*/E* sudo touch -f /L*/E* sudo kextcache -Boot -U / (or: sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel) If you get an error message "... 77", re-type the touch + kextcache commands. Ignore any message "... 17". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
