I cannot execute any updates? Do I have a sort of NVram problem? I tried to update from Sierra to HS by just using the installer app. (Preparation like adding apps.efi, updating clover etc. done in front certainly). The update started and after a short time it rebooted the system. Then my Sierra started again acting like nothing has been done before. Then I installed HS via an USB installer. So, to keep my Sierra partition, I shrinked it and installed HS to the free rest space. This worked fine. HS started up like expected. It looks like it is working fine on my hardware. The problem occurs after 13.1 has been released. I run the update and once again the system reboots but started with 13.0 like nothing has happened in between. My thought are currently that a special NVram entry is being placed by the installer/updater but it does not persist a reboot of my machine? Or does any one knows whats is going on with my system - because I also do not find any similar behaviour being posted in any forums? What I have done so far: 1. I tried to add a boot parameter via shell command to the nvram - was not recognised at new boot. 2. I tried to create a /etc/shutdown... script to copy nvram to disk but no luck. Clover is always saying: "PutNvramPlistToRtVars: nvram.plist not found" No further idea on my side.

Have now shutdown working correctly (by accident figured out by my wife ) Here the short story: While doing trial and error research with my new created DSDT I always kept my "original" DSDT as default in clover. My wife want's to lookup something quickly before lunch and I just told her to switch on the machine. So it loaded my "original" DSDT in combination with USBInjectAll and my SSDT-UIAC-ALL. Then she just asked me to shut down the machine as the lunch was ready. And voilà - shutdown is working. So now I have to examine the difference between my DSDT and the "original" one. As far as I know there were no USB corrections made like above. But IORegistryExplorer is showing them as EHC1 and EHC2. My clover configuration is only to generate C and P states and FixIPIC in the ACPI section - SMBIOS set to 6.2. Before you ask - sleep is still not working - already checked it.

Hi I am currently working on a dsdt for my e6510 (pretty similar to a e6410 as stated in other posts) After successfully installing Sierra following available El Capitan guides (mostly for the e6410) I figured out that shutdown and sleep is not working. This is my primary goal to get this to work. Up to know I am not successful yet. I have carefully read RehabMan guide for dsdt patching and at first figured out, that applelpc is not working on my machine: MY MAC:~ bartl$ kextstat|grep -y applelpc 104 0 0xffffff7f82971000 0x3000 0x3000 com.apple.driver.AppleLPC (3.1) F51595F0-F9B1-3B85-A1C3-F984DAD4107E <92 12 5 4 3> Here I found out that for the series 5 chipset a compatibility tag is needed in the DSDT's LPS definition So by adding the following lines to the dsdt brings applelpc up: ... Device (LPCB) { Name (_ADR, 0x001F0000) // _ADR: Address // start here Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized) // LPC compatible patch entry { If (!Arg2) { Return ( Buffer() { 0x03 } ) } Return ( Package () { "compatible", "pci8086,3b09" } ) } // end here Scope (\_SB) ... Further I noticed that USB is not being loaded in the new El Capitan/Sierra way. So I started with renaming EHCI and EHC2 to EH01 and EH02. Unfortunately this leads into kernel panic telling me that _UPC can not be parsed correctly. Further inspection of my dsdt showed me that the _UPC method has been implemented only as name. So here I did some copy and paste work: Now after reboot my USB ports have not been available. So I have to inject them with USBInjectAll.kext. After placing it in efi/clover/kexts/10.12 a huge amount of ports are available so I created a custom ssdt which shrinks down the port number after placing it in refi/clover/acpi/patched: So far my current research.

I have the i7-620M build in. I think that my CPU temperature is too high because my fan is spinning very often. Any recommendations for my CPU settings? I think the lowest CPU speed is fine (1.2 GHz) but the base speed is wrong (2.79 GHz) and I am missing the turbo mode. Beside my NVIDIA is running with 405MHz as well.
