SSDT generation is for CPU power management; nothing to do with FaceTime which requires an Ethernet card/interface declared as 1st interface en0. Sometimes the wireless card gets in there 1st and Ethernet is en1. In that case, you need to delete all network interfaces from your Network PrefPane and all plist files from /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration. If your CPU is not recognised by the script (because it may not be present in the default tool database), just can try adding the characteristics of your CPU manually with the script optional parameters. All are indicated at Pike R Alpha's repo linked above.

I've done some further testing on my E6440 and I just cannot reproduce your issue at all. I can't even boot OS X if I revert to standard BIOS table and boot without cache and without proper HD4600 injection. I can clearly see that attempts to load Radeon graphics are made but system then hangs and does not complete boot. It does not really matter whether I add _ON or _OFF to the _INI method for SSDT scope SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP... Can you make sure that you inject your HD4600 properly? With Mavericks, you simply need to inject Intel Azul FB #12 or Intel-ig 0x0a260006 (with Chameleon/Enoch, this translate into IntelAzulFB=12 and InjectIntel-ig=0600260a). From Yosemite onwards, you need to load Rehabman's FakePCIID + FakePCIID_Intel_HD_Graphics, inject Intel-ig 0x0a260006 and fake desktop HD4600 id 0x0412. Thereafter for me, there is simply no visibility of the Radeon dGPU and not a single mention of it in the boot/system log or in SysProfiler.

Gave it another shot from your raw table... I just: 1) in SSDT-8: added a call to _OFF in Method _INI of \SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP 2) in DSDT: removed incorrect external method _SB.PCI0.RP05.PEGP.EPON in definition block at beginning of table (no such method exists) removed calls to _SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP.EPON and _SB.PCI0.RP05.PEGP.EPON in method _WAK added a call to _SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP._OFF in method _WAK to disable the discrete GPU on Wake added a call to _SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP._ON in method _PTS to enable the discrete GPU on Sleep fixed a few classical issues generating errors at compilation (e.g.: rename device "*pnp0c14" to "PNP0C14") No renaming of devices this time, just to do quick tests. Give that a try and let us know. DSDT.aml.zip SSDT-8.aml.zip

What I did was: 1) rename integrated GPU device GFX0 (@0x00020000) to IGPU in DSDT + SSDT-8 + SSDT-9 as per Apple MacBooPro11.x ACPI tables 2) rename discrete GPU device PEG0.PEGP (@00010000) to P0P2.GFX0 in DSDT + SSDT-8 + SSDT-9 as per Apple MacBooPro11.x ACPI tables 3) add external methods declarations for SB.PCI0.P0P2.GFX0._ON and SB.PCI0.P0P2.GFX0._OFF at beginning of DSDT 4) add a Scope SB.PCI0.P0P2.GFX0 in DSDT with an _INI Method that just calls _OFF Method (declared in external table SSDT-9) 5) add calls to SB.PCI0.P0P2.GFX0._OFF in _WAK Method

There's a full pack posted in the guide referenced above by JakeLo. You should be able to re-use most if not all of it. If the EDP bootpack remains missing to date, please refer to post #4.
-
You should be able to do without EDP if you use the packs posted by JakeLo in the Inspiron / Latitude El Capitan guide.
-
My last shot at it. Place attached patched tables in your ACPI/patched folder (keep a backup of your existing files of course). Patched_tables.zip
-
VGA is unsupported on those Haswell HD4600 Hackintoshes. You can only use HDMI, DVI or DP. The thread does stipulate that the patches are my own findings and experimentation. You may have patched the kext incorrectly (it's easy to make a mistake) or your system requires a different patch.
-
That's because you probably don't have graphics acceleration yet. Try to boot with Chameleon parameter GraphicsEnabler=Yes. In all likelihood, you'll need to inject the nVidia settings through DSDT patching. But we'll need an IOReg extract for that.
-
HDMI output requires patching of the Azul FB; we've mentioned that several times before. Look up the patch in my E6440 guide or my Haswell graphics experimentation thread for full details. https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/7387-dell-latitude-e6440-with-i5-4300m-hd4600-and-1600x900-lcd-mavericksyosemite/page-2&do=findComment&comment=48816 https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/8723-enabling-dvidphdmi-with-intel-hd4200440046005000-and-iris-51005200-gpu/

Try the revised bootpack: added NullCPUPM kext (just in case) added missing flag 32bit kernel mode (oups!) disabled GraphicsEnabler (just in case it causes issues like on the D620/D820 nVidia) To use it, run myHack->create Extra on your USB installer and point to this pack. XPS-M1710-Provisional-Lion-Pack_#3.zip And, for reference, here's your recompiled extracted/raw DSDT table: XPS-M1710_raw_DSDT.zip
-
Is this a myHack USB installer? If so, please use the following flags when booting: -f -v
-
'never had any Arrandale laptop...
-
So you're getting there. Tried vBios patch set to No and Inject Intel set to Yes? Experiment! It's all in the guide. There's even Giofrida's tool for you to test various settings.
-
Most probably the GPUSensor Plugin of FakeSMC which I forgot causes issues with those nVidia G7x GPUs... Try the revised pack below: XPS-M1710_Provisional-Lion-Pack_#2.zip
-
Install latest CodecCommander kext.
-
No idea... Tried with Inject Intel set to Yes?
-
Pending provision of extracted BIOS tables, the attached provisional bootpack should work perfectly with a myHack-based installation. XPS-M1710_Provisional-Lion-Pack_#1.zip To be completed as necessary with eventual SD card reader kext or patched Bluetooth kext and, of course, patched DSDT/SSDT.
-
You need to follow the usual 1st gen Intel HD graphics process... The bible on the matter is available here at IM. It's applicable to Intel HD with dev id 0x0042/0x0046. Is this what you have integrated to that Pentium P6100 CPU? You'll notice the following in the guide: What screen resolution do you have?
-
This is (very) old stuff, I guess gathered after scrounging the Net. It's a start but I would much prefer raw tables extracted from your current BIOS. I can see that the DSDT contained in the archive you posted would require immediate adjustment for the GPU. Can you also specify which BIOS version you're running? This will also allow us to ascertain if it's the latest or not (but keep your current version for the time being). In Windows, download and install Aida64 (Extreme or Business version from memory) to extract all your BIOS tables.
-
That's exactly what's required. As expected, these are quite similar specs to the 945GM-based Latitude models such as the D620/D820 with nVidia GPU (or other Latitude laptops based on the Intel 945PM chipset + Merom CPU to that effect). Eg: D620 nVidia Quadro NVS 110M Eg: D430 We just need your extracted BIOS tables now for eventual DSDT/SSDT patches (likely required for nVidia GPU injection).
-
If you have existing myHack installations (SL 10.6.8 or Lion 10.7.5), you can use the following Terminal command: lspci -nn Failing that, you can download and use DPCIManager. If you don't have the lspci facility installed, follow these instructions to get it installed on your current OS X installation (if applicable). Depending on your type of installation, you may find that the lspcidrv kext would be better placed in /S/L/E rather than /L/E. If you're in Windows, there are many ways: for instance, Windows Manager then check the vendor/device of each device in the driver tab or Aida64 report or any other tools that scans the hardware and produces a detailed report.

Inspiron 1520 nVidia 8400GS: trouble with ML 10.8.5
Hervé replied to alex1967's topic in The Archive
In order to help you, please provide: details of installation method pack your used (patched BIOS tables, kexts, etc.) BIOS settings I would recommend you use myHack v3.3.1 with a genuine copy of ML 10.8.5 (or earlier) and probably re-use some of the files from the D630 nVidia pack. The D630 packs are available here. Ideally, please post the exact hardware specs of your system (chipset, LAN, audio, wireless, etc.) so we can determine which kexts are appropriate or applicable. It should not be difficult since you already run SL 10.6.8 and Lion 10.7.5. -
You would need to post the full hardware specs to begin with. This being said, considering the generation and Intel 945PM chipset of this old beast, the packs for D620/D820 with nVidia GPU would be a good start. But you'll have to confirm the exact model of: LAN card Audio chip SD card reader (if fitted) Bluetooth module (if fitted) Wireless card (Intel not supported) If you currently run Windows, extract all your BIOS tables with Aida64 (full spec version in demo mode will do) and post them in a zipped archive.
