This kext isn´t working on El Capitan anymore.

It's working fine on my Installation. I'm using 10.11 GM and installed the kext after having booted with SIP disabled. Not a single KP so far and it works just like it did on Mavericks. Can't tell about Yosemite, never used it.

[solved] Answering my own issue. EAPDFix works now.

 

The problem is that when I was installing Mavericks, boot kept stalling at [PCI Configuration begin] and I couldn't see anything. npci=0x2000, npci=0x3000 were not working. The only thing that got me past that was to remove Name (_ADR, zero) from Device (PCI0)

        Device (PCI0)
        {
            Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0A08"))
            Name (_CID, EisaId ("PNP0A03"))
            Name (_ADR, Zero)     <<------------- had to remove this to get past [PCI Configuration begin]
            Method (^BN00, 0, NotSerialized)
            {
                Return (Zero)
            }

            Method (_BBN, 0, NotSerialized)
            {
                Return (BN00 ())
            }

            Name (_UID, Zero)
            Method (_PRT, 0, NotSerialized)
            {
                If (PICM)
                {
                    Return (AR00 ())
                }

I simply had to put Name (_ADR, zero) back. Now EAPDFix is working correctly.

Here I have a similar but different behavior. If I have Name (_ADR, zero), then EAPDFix during the boot usually gives me "Timeout on response read". Solution is to reload EAPDFix.kext manually. If I take it off, then I don't get a timeout but sound doesn't work anymore: EAPDFix: Failed to find Audio device HDEF@1B.

Current status on my system:

Mavericks 10.9.1 + EAPDFix 1.3: audio works after "complete" sleep (after waiting the seconds Mavericks takes to really sleep)

Mavericks 10.9.2 + EAPDFix 1.5v3: audio works after complete sleep but the kext needs to be manually loaded (sudo kextload) and the sleep is broken since then (if I try to sleep again, it goes straight to the login screen instead of sleeping)

it's not working in mavericks 10.9.2.

+1

I need to manually kextunload / kextload EAPDFix to get the sound back after sleep on 10.9.2.

edit: no, that works only part of the time...

Just wanted to add one more thing I noticed: the audio loss happens after sleep only if I wake the PC right after sleeping it. If I let it completely sleep (you know, the Mavericks delay it takes until the PC really sleeps), then the audio is fine.

My codec is ALC269VC, already tried EAPD Fix and EAPD Codec Commander, but on both I lose sound after sleep (instantly). According to EAPD Codec Commander readme, I'm on the case mute=1 on node 0x0f.

Curiously, I've installed EAPD Fix via Kext Utility while I was without sound (after a sleep), and then during the installation (caches regeneration, etc.) the sound started to work again.

edit: this same curiosity happens for CodecCommander!

Thank you, version 3.3 added support to commands with Fn key in my Samsung NP530U3B laptop

3.0.2 already supported the touchpad. Don't know about older versions.

I just don't have touchpad gestures, but that's cosmetics, even if I had it I'd barely use it...

Hi, I've just installed latest 3.0.2 drivers and now my laptop keyboard isn't working at all.

I had a working Mac OS X Mavericks, working keyboard, working USB mouse, but no touchpad. I then installed these drivers following the procedure (delete those kexts, although I didn't have any of them in /S/L/E, and then Kext Utility to install the two included), restarted the PC and tried to boot. See the picture attached. The computer reboots one second after this screen and now the keyboard doesn't work not even in BIOS screen (!!!) so I can't select which device to boot (and then at least I'd be able to boot the install again)... In the bootloader (Clover) screen I can use the touchpad to select the option. Please help me, I'm totally disabled without the keyboard :/

edit: I resetted the battery, left the keyboard aside for some minutes and then I could use the keyboard again in the BIOS menus. Booted an USB with Parted Magic Linux and removed the Elan kexts from /S/L/E. OSX is booting fine again.

edit2: the drivers are perfectly working, the problem was I had Voodoo and PS2 kexts inside Clover's kexts folder so they were being duplicated. Removed them and loaded Elan's: success!
