  1. Greetings i recently acquired a Lenovo G50-70 laptop, on which i have successfully installed a dual boot for Windows 7 and Mavericks 10.9.5. The G50-70 +employs a Haswell i7-4510U Dual Core CPU, 8 gb RAM, 1 TB HD, Intell internal 4400 graphics, Elan thouchpad and USB mouse. It also is equipped with Bluetooth, Ethernet (wired) and WiFi. My concern is with Mavericks. Most hardware is functioning and includes graphics, brightness control, sound (VoodoHDA), Wired Ethernet (appropriate kext), WiFi (External USB dongle). My build depends on legacy boot opertion in the BIOS and Chameleon as the boot manager. I'm using kexts for FakeSMC, AppleCPIBAcklight (working), ACPIBatteryManager (working), GenericUSBXHCI and the built in Ethernet. However to achieve native Lenovo keyboard function, I had to use Rehabman's VoodooPS2Controller kext. This gave me keyboard function and key remapping but was totally useless for the ELAN touchpad. It caused the most erratic behavior whenever the pad was touched and could only be halted by rebooting. I've tried disabling the touchpad, but could accomplish it only through windows. The issue then was upon reboot the touchpad was again enabled necessitating loading windows to disable. This is not satisfactory. To get to the point of this post, i came across your ELAN SmartTouchPad driver version 4.5 final, and hoping this was the answer I tried it out. I removed the VoodooPS2Controller kext and installed your ApplePS2SmartTouchPad kext. Mavericks boots without complaints, but NO keyboard function and NO touchpad. I'm writing this by using an external USB keyboard. Do you have any advise? Patch to the ELAN ketch, dsdt patch? Help is most appreciated. I've included an IOREG of my system. keinfenster
