  1. With Optimus enabled, will the Nvidia card be disabled or will both NVIDIA and HD3000 be detected and switchable to extend battery life?

     

    Right now, the only way i've been able to achieve sleep on this machine is by shutting down the nvidia card via the dsdt edit described above.  It would take a lot of modification and time to make the cards switchable if even possible.

  2. @Herve - Various DSDT modifications, revo script SSDT ( i7-2720qm ), dw1510 rebranded wifi card, etc.  I'll write up a guide at some point in the next few days with full details.  Sleep started working properly after I enabled optimus in BIOS and imported the PEG0.VID._OFF method from SSDT-4.  It needs to be called from _WAK and PCI0._INI.

     

    Also, I made a slight mistake in my last post, I'm actually running 10.9 GM, not DP8.

  3. credits to rehabman for figuring this out.  

     

    This patch fixed the X battery indicator on my E6520 (10.9 DP8).

     

     

    DSDT patch - 

    into_all all code_regex Mutex\s+\(([^,]*),\s+[^)]*\) replaceall_matched begin Mutex(%1, 0x00) end;

    After that, find the BAT1 and BAT2 sections in your DSDT.  Transform the _STA methods in those devices to look like this:

       
    Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)  // _STA: Status
    {
           Return (Zero)
    }

     

    Make sure BAT0 is not altered at all while doing this.

     

    Install the latest ACPIBatteryManager.kext
