Taptun Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I tried but I couldn't get it working. May be I couldn't apply the hack quite right. Could you please apply that hack to my DSDT. May be there is also something else missing. DSDT.aml.zip If this still doesn't work then I assume I need to patch my device id. Taptun,I would like to reduce CPU temperature of my DV7, but don't know about DSDT editing. Please give step by step instruction for CPU section in DSDT. Thank you in advance! Joe Give me your DSDT and SSDT, I'll try to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBraddock Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 @Taptun, if you don't get screen while your laptop being hooked up to an HDMI port, then this hack doesn't work for me. I am using AppleHDA from 10.6.2. When I have time I'll try the recent version and finally patch my device id to see if it makes any difference. Thanks for your time.

JBraddock Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Source HDMI Did you patch your device id or it is working out of the box? Anyway, I'll take more detailed look next month when I buy an external monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Time2Retire Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Why don't I see this preference setting on my HP notebook but on my desktop hack? Because my HP notebook has a PS2 keyboard and MacBookPro's a USB variant? I guess so but I'm just looking for a confirmation from someone who know stuff better than I do. Another thing I am wondering about it this button ("Replacing Batteries...") on my Keyboard pref pane. I mean that shouldn't be there on notebooks. Might this be the result of voodoops2 kext or is my notebook's keyboard initialized in the wrong way? Also. Do I need the TrackpadPrefpane from the first post, in order to enable settings for my notebook trackpad, or am I reading it wrong? Sorry for asking these silly questions, but I'm new to notebook hacks. p.s. My notebook's 'PM Profile' (in FACP.dsl) is set to 2 (no desktop) and the energy settings are fine.

jy371 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Give me your DSDT and SSDT, I'll try to do @Taptun, Please find the attached DSDT and SSDT which are extracted by get_acpi_tables.py. I am using the DSDT.aml from Mammoth Boot CD v1.15. DSDT_SSDT.zip If you can patch the DSDT.aml to have speedstep for i720qm, that will benefit most of DVx laptop users. Thank you in advance!

jy371 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 jy371Try I replaced the DSDT.aml with that in jy371 and it works without AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext. It stops booting if AppleCPUPowerManagement in place. When I copy your AppleHDA.kext to S/L/E; sound and the mute button work too. The CPU temperature is around 60C at norm and around 70C running Geekbench. It's seemed that the CPU temperature is the same as before, using Mammoth's DSDT.aml. However, I found that the fan whined once while high temperature. Thank you for the modified DSDT which makes the mute button works. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jy371 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 AppleLPC.kext loaded? Use LegacyAppleLPC.kext Yes, I had AppleLPC.kext loaded in S/L/E. This time, I loaded LegacyAppleLPC.kext in S/L/E and deleted AppleLPC.kext. Pfixed and reboot; the CPU temp. is the same. Should I load AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext back?

It boots faster than before and Geekbench score 1000 higher (from 5555 to 6553). I can hear the cooling fan spinning in various speed depend on temperature. The CPU temperature is several degree lower (53C idle and 63C running Geekbench). Thanks again and I like the result. :) Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tical2k Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I'm having a very odd problem. If I boot with -x, the boot time is really fast, but if I boot normally, it goes to a blue screen and appears to hang, but if I leave it for 10 mins or so it continues and boots into osx and everything works fine. Its obviously a kext issue, but I have no idea what kext could be causing this. Perhaps the audio? I dunno. Anyone seen this before? (ran pfix and disk utility in -s mode, so all should be good) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanerson Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 @yehia Amer, Hi, if you have using a DSDT, maybe your problem coming from there, because in your captures: one (PCI cards) appear the wlan attached to pci slot 2, and in IOReg capture (the most reliable for me) appear RP01 (slot 1)... I think can be fixed from DSDT way, by injecting it on the proper address and deleting the pci wrong/unnecessary (SUN) part, which would have to be "AirPort" slot name (genuine MacBook since late 2007 models)... So, upload your dsdt, I will take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think should works. But please consider that AirPort Extreme its just cosmetic on PCI section (system profile). I commented out those parts on your dsdt. Is NOT cosmetic if appear on Network -- (AirPort) part as Extreme card (rebranding). In fact, real macbook (since late 2007) AirPort not appear as PCI Cards..., but appear on Ethernet Cards as "other Network Controller" or "AirPort" (dsdt). So, if you want to recognize as real (Apple genuine) Extreme, then you need to rebrand your card, which is the procedure mentioned in current topic. The rest of dsdt hacks are unnecessaries apply to your broadcom (pci14e4,4353) which is native (not including Apple "subsystem-id" and "subsystem-vendor-id" of course). Notes: If you want to know what I did, look the .dsl for reference. Also, maybe its necessary to add/activate (+ button) manually the AirPort interface on System Preferences -- Network. Good Luck.

Good Luck. i didn't work Although the card is detected on the the ioreg and the AppleAirPortBrcm43224.kext is loaded , it is not detected on system info or on System Preferences at all not even showed as before what do you think the problem is ? ioreg_after_dsdt_fix.rtf i tried to rebrand my card but at this step , ubuntu does not see my wireless card , so i don't know what to do !!!!!!! Once everything is ready , now here comes the crucial part , type SSB_SPROM=$(find /sys/devices -name ssb_sprom) and then followed by echo $SSB_SPROM If you see something like /sys/device/pci/<numbers>/ssb_sprom. Then you’re in luck. But when you type echo $SSB_SPROM and you get nothing. You should stop now as ubuntu does not see your wireless card. However if you see more then 1 entry , you should consider reading this also if i rebrand my card , do i have to add it to my hp bios white list ????

Mac Man 50 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 I'm back!!! after a long lull. I was extremely busy with my work and now I can breath for a little while!!! Btw, I found this exciting news!!! AirLink Wireless N Ultra Mini USB Adapater now works for Mac OS X. They have released a new driver for Macintosh. With this, there is no need to mess with hardware etc. It is a very small USB adapater and needs a dedicated USB slot which should not be a problem since dv8t comes with 4 USB ports. http://airlink101.com/products/awll5088.php Btw, where is Mammoth, kizwan and others?
