hp27 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Dear Lenovo G550 user, I am facing a mysterious problem with my G550 and have exhausted the LEnovo forum to find answers. May be one of you can help? I used my G550 to check emails at night then I did a proper shut down and left it by my bedside. It never started the next morning. When I try to turn it on, the little lights (indicating its powered up, volume up, down, mute, etc) come on but the hard drive doesnt make any noise and the screen doesnt come on. Num lock and Caps lock lights dont work. When I insert a CD/DVD in the drive, it takes it and spins but then nothing more. I have tried to plug it with an external monitor but it was not registered Unfortunately, I ran out of warranty less than a month ago. So Lenovo wants to charge me $80 even to talk about my system. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaykob Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Could somebody please upload the newest DSDT? Almost all of the posted links are down. I would be especially interested in the G210M version. Could you also please tell me which kexts I should use together with the DSDT file? The update to 10.6.5 isn't working yet, right?

skeezicks Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Just add some things I came across. 10.6.6 works fine....just make sure to delete sleepenabler.kext first and then run pfix. Also I don't know if anyone has experienced this. But after a system update, google chrome will start to hang on flash or heavy javascript sites. Reinstalling flash, chrome, deleting the settings doesn't work. This was driving me mad. Finally found the solution. I had to run the nvidia video enabler package again. Why that works I have no clue. But chrome stopped hanging after rebooting. This has happened twice already (upon updating to 10.6.5 and 10.6.6) so I'm pretty sure they are related. Thanks!

skeezicks Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Hi, I have the same laptop, updating it to 10.6.6, it gives a Kernal panic error. How did you get it to work Did you disable the sleepenabler.kext before you upgraded? They are not compatible between versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coz when I updated it, there was a kernel Panic and the second thing, My hackb00k sleeps but doesn't wake up. is there a way to solve this issue? Is there a kext or something for the display?

Sylima Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 After over a month.... 8) i finaly made it ... Here is my package for G550 with nvidia 210m GFX. I found that Lenovo Y550 is similar with G550 and on one Chinese forum (PCBETA) i find modified DSDT for Y550 (don't ask me for hell with chinese fonts and google trnslations . I edited that DSDT (removed GFX, and AUDIO section) and now works on G550 including sleep, hibernate. (USE IT AT YOUR OWN!) In package is included original Y550 DSDT - so if someone is want to look at it with more attention to make more precise DSDT for G550 Go FOR IT! Also included is tools that are you need for modifications and first help. Network... not tested ... included is modified kext for my AirLIVE USB wifidongle. All is on 10.6.3 - next step 64bt. Regards! Happy G550 LINK ... Give me DSDT and all kexts for this laptop - sleep not working only((( I know, that my english is very bad, but i hope that you understand me) Thank you!

MAC IN TOSH Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I fond a thread which explains how to enable QE/CI on G105M, I'm not sure if that works or not. but Here is what the thread says: G105M enabled with QE/CI. leopard 10.5.8 I followed this thread: http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=4 did as: geForce GTX 200 series I used nvinject 0.20 instead. when reboot, boot did NOT stop, and got right resolution(BIG STEP), but still no QE/CI. then, I removed nvinject.kext from /S/L/E, then to reboot, with chameleon RC3 I used -v GgraphicsEnabler=y then QE/CI enabled. Can anyone please confirm this one of this method enables QE/CI on Nvidia 105M? I would have tried for myself but, it's my brother's laptop, he won't let me try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only i could contact NewCom i could make something better then i have compiled with the work from the dev's latest voodoobatterry is 1.3.2? Not work for me...... You can write video 210M in DSDT? In Lion work all kext, but DSDT is a best variant, because with kexts sometimes KP on the Lion`s boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hacktrix2006 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Latest VoodooBattery is 1.3.3, Have you installed lion on the lenovo. if so please could you tell me how you did it as i'm going to try on my external drive and need pointers on how you did it.

Sylima Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 INSTALL LION 10.7 DEVELOPER PREVIEW 2 (A419) on Lenovo G550 1. Format flashdrive FAT32 (MBR) NOT GUID because you will see black screen 2. Prepare flashdrive for boot with this utility XPC Boot Prepare Tool (flashdrive can be is empty) 3. Copy on flashdrive [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] or XPC (i am use [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] because booting is not longer that with XPC) 4. Download this DMG http://inmac.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11106 (in folder i put my torrentfile) - this is installing DMG. You can copy this on harddrive or flashdrive or usbHDD use the disk utility. (i can give invite in this tracker) 5. Copy kexts for video on /System/Library/Extensions 6. Move folder extensions on the icon of this programm mkextMaker.v1.1.app 7. Then extensions.mkext move to the /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup (all files in this folder may be delete before step 8) Boot from the prepared flashdrive, and boot from usb HDD or harddrive with LION (boot is frozen on "pci conf. begin"), but you may wait 1-2 minute and you will see 10,7 LION on your iLenovo. If you choose the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] on menu press key "M" and write boot flag (-v -f arch=i386) on a first boot (you will see log of the booting and boot ignore cache. All files and utility which i did used here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3920036/Lion%20on%...ta.pp.ua%5D.zip P.S. I am not sure that you understand me my native language is Russian, english very bad.... If you have questions - i hope that i can answered on it. Write from iLenovo and LION 10.7 - very nice OS! And i hope that Hacktrix2006 help us with DSDT!

weizh126 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 @Hacktrix2006 How about your sound card cx20561? What kext do you use?The AppleHDA or the VoodooHDA? I have patched an AppleHDA from 10.6.2, and it works great, no sound assertion anymore in snow leopard. But now I use the Lion, the old 10.6.2 AppleHDA can run on the Lion, but I prefer a new version, I mean the new AppleHDA in lion. I can get it work after patching, but lots of sound assertion.Do you have some good news on this issue? BTW, you may ask me some question about the DSDT, I mean, I have an account in the PCBETA forum you provided in the link. sorry for my poor english Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
