kylec

I think so too.

I completely agree about the problems with this kext. Here's what happens next: Emlydinesh will promise to release the source code "real soon now," and then another year or two will go by. Prove me wrong, EM!

That code is almost 3 years old and works with V3 hardware only. The license is very clear: if you distribute binaries, you must also distribute the source code. There have been many publicly released versions of this driver since that time.

The reason I'm frustrated, is that Emlydinesh has repeatedly promised to release the source code, but it seems like he has no intention of actually doing so. As for legal or illegal, I really don't care. But there is no question that using a bunch of open source code as the basis for a piece of software and then keeping it closed source is WRONG. Do you deny that?

EMlyDinEsH, Just release the source code, already! What you're doing is unethical (not to mention, illegal). You have built upon the work of others who used software licenses that forbid making derivative works without distributing the source code. Why haven't you done it yet?

Please release the source code. Some of us know how to code, and I could be working on fixing my problem instead of just waiting for some help. We don't care if it's still a work in progress.

I can't send you a PM. The forum just gives me an error message. It's weird!

I'm just trying this driver for the first time on my Samsung RV520 with 10.10.2, Clover bootloader. I'm using the new 4.2 version, ApplePS2SmartTouchPad.kext. My problem is "Unexpected magic knock result 0x00, 0x00, 0x00."

needed to be removed from the DSDT. I tried both, but to no effect. In fact, removing EPAD made my keyboard not work. There was no change in the kernel log. Finally, I've attached the ioreg files - one with this driver loaded, and one with regular VoodooPS2. Thanks!! rv520_ioreg.zip

I take it the 3.8 version doesn't work on 10.10.2 either? Anyone else unable to send a PM to EMlynDinEsH? I'd really like to try this beta version.
