Tuh, tuh, tuh, of course it is! Through the Input Sources tab, although it is a little different in Mav: Up to ML: look down in the alphabetical list at L for your added Logitech layout Mav: you have to click on Keyboard Preferences... button, then on + in Keyboard pane, then look in Others.

For keyboard, I always use a combination of DoubleCommand (supports Mavericks now) for CMD/Alt keys + Logitech layouts provided by Ukelele (placed in /Library/KeyboardLayouts) that I then select through Language Pref Pane for other keys positioning such as @, \, etc.

Ok, good, that's the one to use (at least with ML or Mav). You're all set then! You can now rename the patched DSDT file into dsdt.aml and place that in /Extra to reboot normally without the manual Chameleon option.

So, you're good? I guess you are using BCM5722D kext for your Broadcom Ethernet, right? Which version is it?

You don't need to run myFix to use a DSDT file, just test any new file with Chameleon option DSDT=/. Is the Ethernet working at all?

Try to repair permissions on it.

Probably not necessary actually, IOreg and DSDT are usually sufficient.

I would advise you to simply replace your entire /Extra with mine and, of course!, run myFix (quick) to apply the changes. Unless you run myFix, none of the kexts you add to /E/E are taken into account. Of course, if you have no BT module and no WWAN module, remove those CSR Bluetooth + CellPhone kexts before running myFix. Naturally, the /Extra folder I uploaded did not contain the EDP installation which is unnecessary in the present context. Alternatively, make a brand new EDP installation; 'should be up to version 773 or something...

@Dan, try the attached DSDT, patched to reflect your LAN card in System Report. After rebooting with the new DSDT, look up interfaces in Terminal with ifconfig command. LAN_patching.zip Byt the way, your Dan's Devices & Kexts.zip files were empty!

The ATI problem is most likely due to lack of FrameBuffer definition resulting in OS X being unable to identify your card. You need to identify which FB it is for your card to add it to your boot plist, then possibly patch your DSDT. Until you do that, you won't have graphics acceleration and won't be able to properly initialise graphics card.

Change your BT Pref Pane settings...

Sorry, 'can't say, I'm happy with the ANV/Slice pack. Try different ones from the EDP list but be aware that some may not work so you could use your keyboard & touchpad.

But... you're back with nullCPUPowerManagement, PState, SleepEnabler, etc. all those I advised you not to select! I recommended you use VoodooBattery and you have AppleSmartBatteryManager + VoodooBattery! You're without PS2 kexts, so keyboard and touchpad aren't probably working... Same goes for LAN, you have no Broadcom kext installed. Sorry, but either you're not following instructions or EDP is completely & utterly messed up. Your D430 just won't work properly in those conditions. Why won't you just use the /Extra I provided above ??? Manually remove all those kexts, copy those from my /Extra folder to your /E/E, copy my SMBIOS + boot plists to /Extra then run my fix (quick).

Yes, sure, do the same with the latest EDP version. After your build, please list the contents of /Extra/Extensions. We'll then be able to establish whether EDP installs the correct LAN kext or not. It's available in my /Extra if required.

Yup.

EDP updates consist mainly of new systems being added. Should anything else of significant importance be added for existing integrated systems, then we would announce it on the forum. We will add some of those tuning items before long, it's just a matter of finding the time to do and test the EDP app thoroughly afterwards... I've already posted about the performance tuning for the D430 in this very section. You need to look for it, I can't remember exactly; probably a pinned thread... Coming back to the D430 EDP build, this is what you should opt for: Copy those files I mentioned above from my /Extra to your /Extra/include folder Launch EDPWeb and proceed with D430 build as follows: . Kexts: Standard PS2 controller (myHack), but you're welcome to choose any other, but beware, some might be 64bit and may not work (I don't know which ones) Default VoodooHDA (but v2.8.4 should work just as well) Default Ethernet Wifi according to your card if required (some work OOB) Voodoo battery . CPU&Power: VoodooTSCSync . Other tabs: default settings That should be it.

From memory, but I'll check tonight because I certainly have not updated EDP on my D430 for ages (no need, it works): Default PS2 pack (probably) VoodooHDA TSCSync GMA950 brightness fix I think that's all you need. Wireless will depend on the card you have and it appears you have none... If you use the boot plist + SMBIOS + FakeSMC of my /Extra above, you'll have native SpeedStep. So once you've done your EDP build, just copy those files the /E and /E/E and re-run myfix (quick). Then, you're safe to reboot.

Well, which battery kext are you using, if any at all?

That sure is a way but make sure you never reboot before you've finished your new build. You can simply re-install EDP and make a new build. Just be cautious with the default options which might be wrong these days... Are you running BIOS A09? The /Extra folder I provided above should have worked without issues; it's taken directly from my D430 Lion install and your U7600 CPU vs. my U7700 will not make any difference...

You can boot OS X from an external HDD connected to USB, no problem on that front. If you do that, you would normally be able to see your internal HDD and do whatever you want with (eg: add/remove kexts from /E/E and run myfix on it).

Can you list the contents of your /Extra/Extensions folder please? And also specify the specs of your D430 (CPU, wireless, BT, etc.).

We need to document the EDP package much better, we're aware of that. But we need to find the time to do it properly, which is always difficult as this is a spare-time hobby... If you want to retain your own kext everytime you do an EDP build, you should use the "include" subfolder where you can place kext and/or plist files you wish to retain. Files placed in this "include" folder take precedence over the database files held and used in EDP.

Too old to run anything very recent. Leopard 10.5 Ok, possibly SnowLeopard 10.6 but you would need legacy kernel (in 32bit mode of course) and you may not get graphics to work. Read this for guidance. Lion and above is impossible, your hardware is far too old and totally incompatible with these versions.

You never mentioned you were talking about the EDP options so I never even thought that's what you were referring to. So, yes, leave all those those Off.

DW1502 is indeed based on AR9285. It'll work directly and without 3rd party management software once you have patched the wireless kext (if that is required).
