Then I would start with the latest Elan kexts and move on from there. I'm not sure if SmartTouchpad v4.7 beta 5.zip supports elan. I believe mine is synaptics.

Which trackpad do you have?

Only try 1 at a time.

I only use SmartTouchpad v4.7 beta 5.zip for my Asus laptop.

Hi, I am using your SmartTouchpad v4.7 beta 5 and it works great on my laptop on macOS High Sierra with no modifications.

normal right click on the kext and compress

Yeah same, Decompressed mine is 1kb larger as well lol.

What did you use to Compress it?

Built on 10.12.3 Beta (16D17a)

Xcode 8.2.1

VoodooI2C.kext.zip

Use the prefpane from el capitan for track pad.

Thanks for the info.

Unfortunately i am unable to find any more details about the wifi/bluetooth card except in brakets on the website is has (RT2790/ RT309X/ RT35X2/ RT539X/ RT3290/ MT7630)

So ive managed to get Yosemite installed with clover, usb mouse worked but had issues with keyboard and trackpad not working but voodooPS2Controller fixed that. Graphics are very buggy, which do i disable? the integrated Intel 4400 or Nvidia GT 840M? and how would i do that?

Wifi isnt working but im guessing the Mediatek (RaLink) 7630 isnt compatible with os x.

The only kexts i have used is fakesmc and the PS2Controller.

So i ask.....where do i go from here?

S

As above I have a asus tp500ln laptop and was wondering how compatible it is and what would be needed for a clover install of yosemite.

I thought the Bluetooth module was separate in my machine. I've had the back off and it's got a wpan card in it.

I wouldn't mind Bluetooth as well. What about the atheros ar5b195?

Thanks Jake, I got most things up and running now. Just need my wifi to work, what would be a good replacement that will work in yosemite, linux, windows instead of the dreaded 533an-hmw intel wifi link 5300.

Hi guys, amazing forum have read and learned a lot but I'm still unable to get yosemite to install on my dell latitude e6500. Is there a step by step guide anywhere? The right Kexts etc..
