  1. 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.
  2. 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).
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Well, which battery kext are you using, if any at all?
  7. 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...
  8. 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).
  9. Can you list the contents of your /Extra/Extensions folder please? And also specify the specs of your D430 (CPU, wireless, BT, etc.).
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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).
  14. Read this. No emulated SpeedStep please, that's where your problems come from. You're using native SpeedStep now... I assume that when you write: you mean you've removed them from /E/E before doing a myFix (quick), correct?
  15. Ok, it's as I thought: 00:19.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation 82566DM-2 Gigabit Network Connection [8086:10bd] (rev 02) You can grab the required kext off the Vostro200 pack, posted here.
  16. You would normally tick the DropSSDT option if you use your own SSDT tables. If you're using default/built-in BIOS tables, don't tick that.
  17. Try the attached /Extra folder. Minor things could require modification as the DSDT was patched for my WLAN card and Extra/Extensions contains patched kexts for BT and WWAN which you may not have. Won't affect ability to boot and run Lion on your machine though... D430_Extra.zip
  18. You need to tell us what Ethernet card you have in that desktop? Then, we should hopefully be able to point you towards a specific kext. I'd say there's a good chance you'll need the Intel 82566M kext, but we'll see? Assuming you have the lspcidrv kext in /E/E, use Terminal to get your lspci data through command lspci -nn and post us the results.
  19. 1) Try and disable IDA (Dynamic Acceleration) in BIOS. We did notice that IDA enabled with Merom CPU caused FSB to run much slower (~10% slower) than the normally expected speed (eg: 726MHz instead of 800MHz) and that had a direct impact on CPU speed of course! It sounds very similar in your case. 2) When you play with FakeSMC and SMBIOS profiles, did you apply different SMC key values to the FakeSMC plist as described in the Performance article? That sure is the best way to try and find the best SpeedStep/PowerManagement setup with native power management.
  20. Ok, will look at it later on today.
  21. @Dan, what we can try and do re: Ethernet controller is add the info in the DSDT as opposed to inject device properties through the boot plist. That's always more elegant if I may use that term. Post us your current IOReg output and your DSDT and I'll see what we can do.
  22. On paper, there should be no problem with your hardware in terms of compatibility. Just follow the process detailed in EDP pages of the site. If there is no OSXL bootpack for your particular model, just use the Generic one offered by myHack.
  23. Check your BIOS and, if required, adjust according to the recommended settings in the dedicated pinned thread on the matter. Disable Wireless if you have an Intel card. If you still have the same problem, rebuild your myHack installer and make sure to apply the OSXL bootpack afterwards (not automatic on myHack v3.3.1 -> Install Extra option in the menu).
  24. You should not need anything special to get full QE/CI on Lion, no Natit or anything like that, just boot 32bit kernel mode (arch=i386), that's all. X3100 is not supported in 64bit mode. You probably need GraphicsEnabler=Yes too.
