Steps to change the DVMT value (Done on Windows or WinPE) /!\ Warning, some files in attachment will show as infected, you'll need to disable your antivirus temporarily Use at your own risk! 1) Universal BIOS Backup ToolKit 2.0.exe - to backup the BIOS (i.e. DellInc.-A07.rom) 2) UEFITool.exe to find the module labeled SetupPrep (not Setup as per FireWolf’s guide) and extract the PE32 image section (setup.bin) Update: For Dell Only: Search with this GUID, right click the GUID found and select extract body. Save it as setup.bin 899407d7-99fe-43d8-9a21-79ec328cac21 3) Universal IFR Extractor.exe to extract setup.bin to a readable text file 4) Use notepad to search for “DVMT” in the text file i.e. for the E7450, 2 were found at 0x432 and 0x433 but only 0x432 needs to be changed to 0x3 5) Format an USB drive to fat32 and create a folder name EFI 6) Download the EFI Shell and extract the Boot folder to EFI folder (EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi) 7) Boot system with the USB and select UEFI Boot At the grub prompt, enter these commands, hit enter after command, then exit and reboot i.e. setup_var 0x432 0x3 To verify if the value was updated, just enter setup_var 0x432 and hit enter, the value will be listed More detailed instruction in attachment /!\ Alternatively, just use Lilu.kext + Whatevergreen without having to mess with the BIOS https://github.com/vit9696/Lilu/releases https://github.com/vit9696/Lilu/blob/master/KnownPlugins.md https://github.com/acidanthera/WhateverGreen/releases DVMT_Tools.zip

Missing Clover folder, can you attach that too?

Delete System DSDT.aml from /EFI/Clover/ACPI/Patched

This one, so it won't get confused. My fault for not checking the DSDT which hardcoded layout-id to 1. I removed that so it can be changed easily in Config file now. Remember to fix permission and rebuild cache after moving the kexts back to Clover kexts from /S/L/E and /L/E config.plist

Sorry everyone, this system has ALC293, not ALC292. @Sohn, please put everything back to how it was before moving kexts to /S/L/E and /L/E and use this DSDT.aml with the Config I attached earlier. DSDT.aml

run this and post the output: sudo chmod -Rf 755 /L*/E* sudo chown -Rf 0:0 /L*/E* sudo touch -f /L*/E* sudo chmod -Rf 755 /S*/L*/E* sudo chown -Rf 0:0 /S*/L*/E* sudo touch -f /S*/L*/E* sudo kextcache -Boot -U /

Did you remove AppleHDA_ALC293.kext from /EFI/Clover/kexts/Other, /L/E, and or /S/L/E Repair permission and rebuild cache

Remove AppleHDA_ALC293 and add AppleALC.kext to /EFI/Clover/kexts/Other Use this Config config.plist

Here, replace contents into /EFI/Clover 5550_HS_quartz38.zip

Strange in the screenshot, HDMI audio shows as IvyBridge. You could also try adding a supported dGPU. Give this Config a try. config.plist.zip

Ok, try this config config.plist.zip

Follow instructions from here to debug issue gen_debug -sysprofile

Please post result of this command log show --style syslog | fgrep "Wake reason"

Can you post screen shot of Status & PCI List with DPCIManager ? https://sourceforge.net/projects/dpcimanager/

try this config config.plist.zip

Get rid of AppleHDA_ALC292.kext, bootpack I attached utilizes AppleALC.kext with layoutid=12. The audio jack on the Edock is known issue. Kext probably does not include patches for E-Docks port. Just have to use the jack on the laptop or request help from InsanelyDeepak. Have you tried sleep / wake without the E-Dock? Brightness was hardcoded to mid range, if you want full 100%, change Backlightlevel from 0x0306 to 0xFFFF in the Config file

Hmm surprise you don't get KP with the old version of Lilu Here, replace with the latest https://github.com/vit9696/Lilu/releases https://github.com/lvs1974/IntelGraphicsFixup/releases Hmm, there's no i5-2105, are you sure it's not i3-2105 ?

try adding Lilu.kext + IntelGraphicsFixup.kext to /EFI/Clover/kexts/Other and remove NullCPUPowermanagement.kext By the way, you can remove /EFI/Clover/kexts/10.13 folder too, just need Other.

I assume it's not auto switching over to headphone. Try having the headphone plugged in, place system to sleep and then wake it up. See if it'll switch over to headphone. I see in IOReg, the dGPU is disabled since it's not showing there. I also noticed you have an SD card reader that can be patched to work. Replace DSDT with attached and reboot. SDCard reader should show in SysInfo and should work DSDT.aml.zip

Remove FakeID IntelGfx and ig-platform-id in the Config file. Clover should be able to automatically picks it up....assuming you're on latest v4411 SmBIOS should be iMac 12,1 or 12,2 or Mac mini 5,1. iMac 14,2 is for Haswell, your system is Sandybridge.

Post your Clover folder

DW1830 or DW1560

Disable "Enable Legacy Option ROMS" in the BIOS to fix the plug/unplug froze issue.

Use layout-id = 11

Try adding Lilu.kext & AirportBrcmFixup.kext to /EFI/Clover/kexts/Other For audio, make sure to repair permission and rebuild cache after copying kexts to /L/E
