Hey Everyone,
I've successfully managed to install Monterey 12.4 on my Latitude 5591 apart from a few issues. I intend to release a guide/GitHub documentation on the install process after these last flaws are solved.
- Blackscreen during boot/Slow Boot(?)
Currently, I get a black screen for around 2-3 Minutes during Boot. After I enter the filevault password I get the loading bar which fills approximately for 1/3, but after that i get a 2-3 Minute long Blackscreen until the Laptop ends up on the desktop. If I was to boot with "-v" the logs would approximately run as long as the 1/3 bar, but then get followed by a blackscreen -> Desktop scenario as well.
- I have yet to look into CPUFriend for power consumption (is that even required on that platform?)
- Replace the Intel drivers with required BRCM fixes once the DW1820 arrives
Info:
CPU: i5 8400H
GPU: Intel UHD 630, no Dedicated
RAM: 2x8GB
SSD: Kingston NV1 (with working TRIM)
Touchpad: ALPS, with full Mutitouch and gesture support as well as working trackpoint in the middle
Brightness Buttons: Fixed using SSDT-BRT6 against GPU0
My current EFI directory is attached, I'd appreciate some hints in regards to the blackscreen/slow boot as I am pretty clueless about that currently.
Note: The zip misses the "AirportItlwm.kext", which is however present on my system. It has been removed from the zip so that it can be uploaded here.
Thanks in advance
