NEW user "hi!".... Possibly simple solutions PLEASE HELP

Noam AA · August 18, 2011

oh i'm sorry. i keep forgetting.
ok yea i went ahead and updated my bios to FF (again) but i did it correctly this time. i didn't realize the updating the bios RESETS the bios configurations. so i edit all those to their respective settings. so now i'm currently typing this on an upgraded bios.still no boot from hdd tho. i finally found chameleon (all i had to do was boot from hdd duuhh lol) i see the goofy ass looking chameleon and i hit "enter". it loads the gray apple screen and boom! (drum rolls) KERNAL PANIC

actually to be honest i didn't know there was a 64bit ubuntu.... let me check while i'm typing this...

...

...

ok yea, i downloaded the file called "ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64" so thats 64 bit correct?

cause the 32 bit versions is called "ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386"

so i guess i did use the 64bit one.

so where to from here?

i got my latest bios up and running so thats good. but i see no improvements (or issues) just runs the same. so is there another way to dump that dsdt?

seems like 64bit ubnutu doesn't support this commends, download the i386 (32bit) and do what i told you there..

hmm ok then!

i pmed you btw

QbAnYtO · August 18, 2011

ok. it created a dsdt.dsl file on the desktop. but i got that error like i told you in the pm.

Noam AA · August 18, 2011

ok. it created a dsdt.dsl file on the desktop. but i got that error like i told you in the pm.

it's ok i searched and it's ok.

now you done the other commend? (iasl)

if so, then your pure DSDT is ready to use.

store it somewhere, and on osx use auto-patcher

QbAnYtO · August 18, 2011

it's ok i searched and it's ok.
now you done the other commend? (iasl)

ok sorry i had to come back to the mac side (i was getting the famouse "ips driver" errors on this site with ubuntu). so i ran this other command i found online to extract this and i got a bunch of files on my desktop, including a dsdt.aml file with my motherboards name on the folder and everything. but the .aml file is ZERO bytes.. is tat normal? is it an empty file?

it not normal

the ips was here also on the mac.. it's known problem with the forum not with ubnutu...

so, what commend did you run?

and did you done what i told you? the error seem to be nothing, and you should be able to generate your dsdt how i told you

well i opened the autopatcher and selected the new dsdt file i created with ubuntu and its succesfully "applying" the patch... but is been "applying the patch" for about 5 minutes now :/ i don't reallly think its doinf aything since the file size hasnt changed. it still says zero byte.

i used a downloaded script from another user online and it opened up in terminal in ubuntu and started doing its things. it created a folder with all the info of my motherboard, sound card, ram etc etc...

EDIT: yea this isnt working its just sitting there but it ain't patching {censored} lol

Noam AA · August 18, 2011

of course it will do nothing cause there is nothing to do to a zero bytes file

please try again my method of dumping dsdt, ignore errors and hopefully everything will be good and you will have dsdt

QbAnYtO · August 18, 2011

ignore the errors? yea i guess i should of done that lol

k i'ma give it another go... to the ubunto-mobile!

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ cd /home/ubuntu/Desktop

ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ sudo acpidump -t DSDT -b -odsdt.dsl

ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ sudo iasl -d dsdt.dsl

sudo: iasl: command not found

ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ sudo iasl -d dsdt.dsl

those are my errors

it did creat that dsl file on my desktop but its locked (has a pic of a little lock on it) and its kb

ok

for iasl you need in terminal

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install iasl

then run again

sudo iasl -d dsdt.dsl

i think that worked...

now that 26kb dsl file is kb. but isn't it supposed to be an aml file?

Noam AA · August 18, 2011

nope, it DSL file cause we use -d in iasl. it ok (if you want to know more, it converted the file from binary file to a dsl file, after this, auto-pathcer will create AML file with all the patched needed for your hardware)

now, use that in auto-pathcer

QbAnYtO · August 18, 2011

nope, it DSL file cause we use -d in iasl. it ok
now, use that in auto-pathcer

on the mac side right?

EDIT: yeaaaaaaaaaa!!!

ok i got the patched aml on my desktop.. now what?

Noam AA · August 18, 2011

on the mac side right?

yup! no more ubnutu (you have successfully created your DSDT )

EDIT: yeaaaaaaaaaa!!!

ok i got the patched aml on my desktop.. now what?

ok now it's time to put it in /Extra folder

it need to be loaded right away from chameleon

try

oh ok. i thought i had to leave it in the desktop and reinstall the aml with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] or something.

ok replacing old dsdt file with new one and restarting and loading from hdd... lets see.. be right back in a few minutes!!!

EDIT: well that DIDN"T work as i am still getting a kernal panic when booting from hdd with chameleon

???????????????

Noam AA · August 18, 2011

i forgot something

add this to your com.apple.boot.plist

	<key>GenerateCStates</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>GeneratePStates</key>
<string>Yes</string>

like this? (attached image) i added under the current list

plist.tiff

Noam AA · August 18, 2011

no

you need arch=i386 or arch=x86_64 in kernel flag

also i'm not sure PCIrootUID is a kernel flag, I'm checking

YUP, PCIRootUID is not a kernel flag, instead use

	<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>arch=i386</string>
<key>PciRoot</key>
<string>1</string>

QbAnYtO · August 18, 2011

no

also i'm not sure PCIrootUID is a kernel flag, I'm checking

i also notice my "graphics enabler" says "no"

Noam AA · August 18, 2011

i also notice my "graphics enabler" says "no"

just wanted to say, why? replace with yes

oh ok gotcha. i will edit these now. it put the 64 before i read your message. i thought i had a 64bit machine. actually i think i do lol but hey you know this better than i do

and i replaced graphicsenabler with yes. lets try again.. brb....

UPDATE: ok. it says "can't find arch i386"

should i change it to the 64 one?

you can do either 32 or 64, your system support both, but for now let first test 32, then move to 64

(just for you to know, OSX is Hybrid system, it's doesn't really important to run 64 bit kernel as you can run 64 bit just fine under 32 bit kernel.

i myself, can't boot to 64 bit cause of my sound card which support only 32 bit kernel, but still i have everything running, 64 bit works just fine and benchmark doesn't change on 32 or 64 bit for me (maybe minor but not something worth it)

ok, don;t know why... but try with 64 bit and see what happen

ok yea its says "can't find arch=i386"

we are getting somewhere.. i can feel it lol

EDIT: we are overlapping our responses!! lol

ok will try 64 now....

UPDATE:

now it says "cant find arch=x86_64"

should i try reinstalling it all with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]? maybe placing the dml on desktop, repairing the caches and all that?
