Thanks for the tips mate. Fixed the dsdt line, compiled ok and used the ssdt revoboot made for me (autogenerated one) but sadly same happens. I have found that  by using macbookpro 8,2 drops me more p states than imac12,1. So its a winner.
Still unclear why I have the c evaluation failed.
AppleLPC & AppleSMBUS loads ok.

Try using again imac12,2 with the attached files and let me know if it works any better.

Use my SSDT.aml with the provided IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext..i patched the imac12,2 stepper with the macbookpro8.3 stepper..That's why you should use imac12,2..the SSDT is for i7 2600k, i guess thats your cpu right?
By the way don't forget to use chameleon cause chimera gave me some errors as well..

Here is a patcher for 11d24, only 64bit. I'm currently unable to test this myself, as my Lion setup is refusing to let me use my GTS250 correctly.

Could someone please test it so I can add it to the first post? Thanks.

Try replace NVDAResman.kext with one from 10.7.0 or 10.7.1, maybe this can help!

Try to Remove AppleTyMCEDriver.kext from System/Library/Extensions and then use champlist or other app to change your SMBIOS version to another one!

Thanks for testing, regae.

However, more interesting to know is if the kext loads and functions correctly. That the patcher works is no surprise if I wrote it myself

[Regi Yassin]

its loaded sucessfully, no problem so far,
why its not attached in the #1 post?

btw, still no fixes for lion? its still 16, 35, 36, 37, 38 so sad

[flAked]

I'd like to make sure that something works before releasing it officially and I can't test this myself at the moment. Now that I have confirmation I will add it to the first post.

In 11D24 the plists for Macmini5_x were updated in ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin, so you could test if that changes anything, I take it you are still using iMac12?

Note that these plists include multiple stepper program profiles - I haven't investigated how and if they are used. If you look under StepContextDict you'll see three different profiles: Normal, Background and RealTime.

Also note that in 11D24 there are currently no plists present for iMac12!

[Regi Yassin]

im using macpro4,1 now instead of imac12,2
and my lion is rolled back to 10.7.2, 10.7.3 its only for testing,

is there any increasing performance with macmini5x?

[flAked]

Maybe those new Macmini5_x plists include new stepper programs that utilize more p-states - up for testing.

I'll be on the road later this week and won't have access to my rig after new year, but I'll work on the patcher if the new update comes out before then.

[Regi Yassin]

i'll try with macmini5x as you said,
i will give you the report

[magnifico]

I confirm that on gigabyte, with snow 10.6.8 I need the NULL, for having a high score on geekbench, while on Lion the score is high, because?

[manmal]

hi, does it work properly in 10.7.2 ? I see it's still in beta... any problem with it?
thanks!

Hi,

I know I'm a little bit off topic here, but I'm facing a problem that some of you might have already had...

My laptop is a Hp dv6, with i7 2630, 6go of ram, ati 6770m 2go & intel HD3000.

I have managed to install lion 10.7.2 and run speedstepper 1072. I works fine, I am able to boot with AICPUPM and without NullCpuPowerManagement.

The problem is that when I try to enter sleep or hibernation, the computer goes to sleep very well, the power led starts to blink,

but around 1 second after the computer comes back from sleep itself and the screen doesn't turn on until I press a key or a mouse click.

It isthe same behavior whether I close the lid or I click sleep/hibernate I the option menu.

Anybody knows what could be the problem, or where could that come from ?

thanks in advance !

PS: I've also tried pmset -a hibernatemode 0 and it doesn't change anything at all.

I have HP ProBook 4530s with Core i5-2430m, 4GB RAM, Intel HD3000.
BIOS settings by default and upgraded to the latest version.
Installation method: MultiBeast (UserDSDT (DSDT in Tonymac's db); MacBookPro8,1 SMBIOS); patch AppleIntelCPUPM with speedstepper.
PROBLEM: Turbo boost not works. It stuck at a 2.4GHz frequency. Everybody with 4530s and i5 have such problem. A lot of people who have i5-2*** in their laptops also experience the same problem. Please, help me to solve it.
Now I'm using Lion 10.7.2 with patched AppleIntelCPUPM v159 because it's give me the best results. Some statistics:
AppleIntelCPUPM v159: 5400
AppleIntelCPUPM v167: 5200 (why?)
AppleIntelCPUPM v166: 5200
AppleIntelCPUPM (SL):   5440
I'm trying to boot with CSTUsingSystemIO or even without any CPU flags but results are the same.
I attach my DSDT and boot.plist.

Hey i am also having a hp dv6.
i have tried speedstepper 1072 as well as 1073 beta but stuck at PStatesReached: 8 20 (only 2 states)
what p states are you reaching ?
i am using macbookprov8.3 as model identifier in my smbois.plist. (i have heard that the model identifier in smbios may effect pstates) ?
Can you help me ?

are you using nullcpupowermanagement.kext in Snow and Lion and geeekbench scores are different ?

actually the best mb choice for a sandy bridge hackintosh system is any Gigabyte with a Z68 chip

why you think so ? just because you have to use SpeedStepper for MSI and Asus ?  - you can patch your UEFI instead. For me Gigabyte=Gigafail - you have to edit your DSDT (MSI and Asus have similiar ACPI tables to Apple, so you don't have to do it) there are problems with sleep/autosleep/wake and powermanagment... and some USB problems. Also BIOS booting is much slower then UEFI booting. And finally there are coming new UEFI based bootloaders, so Gigabyte will be left behind.
