Will do some research about VESA soon.

Now I got an old tip for those who don't know about it yet. I prefer not to patch AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext from update to update (and feel more vanilla!). You can boot simply native, adding a device-prop string to chameleon.boot.plist. I use it since Snow Leo. And there is my boot.plist if somebody interested.

Simply copy this string to your plist and you're done. Now I got this kext in system:

• FakeSMC
  
• PS/2
  
• AppleHDA and Battery

And I only have to patch last two after an update. And update itself is more safe!

I tried to patch vesa:
-with 0xCC0F-0xCC16 from linux + checksum fixed - no change
-with 0x0000-0xED51  from linux - notebook is bricked. I used recovery method

Please write about the recovery mode, I need it as I am about to patch bios.

[Florin9doi]

You must extract hdr file from original bios with "N5110A10.exe /writehdrfile", rename the hdr file to "n5110.hdr" and copy the file in the root of a fat32 stick. To recover the notebook, attach usb stick, remove battery and charger, keep "End" key pressed and plug the charger.

Hi Florin9doi I install the Dell Inspiron 15R N5110 Native Modding BIOS Speedstep in my Laptop but I lost the service tag and express service code in the bios, so now I can`t download software on the Dell site and establish chat.
Is there any way we can solve. thanks
Sorry for my english

[Florin9doi]

You can use SVCTAG.EXE in msdos to write Service tag and Asset tag

i patch intel framebuffer only for vga and reduce connector on ioreg from 4 to 2 connector i use hex editor always to do this  there is no big problem on it just edit two bits on of connectors number and one of connector type

on finial release of Mountain Lion now via cant be detected as there are no detection action on system perf !!
to make vga work must boot with it

about device properties  what keys you inject to add it to dsdt + is it do thing for vga ? i dont think so

any way it is option to users to use edit one also as like between applehda and voodoohda

note i cant compile voodoohda on Mountain Lion  there is errors !!

-----------------
alps touchpad project failed  !!
no more development on it

if we want this driver
we have two choose
first is to wait and wait till some person having our notebook develop adriver

or we open donation to one of the developer on OSX86 community  like TheKiNG  or Slice or bcc9
to get this notebook for one of them and work on it


you can choose

I think that the second variant is better then first, but I haven't money to donate. There are some problems with donation. How many money we should donate, who will collect money and will be this driver cost some money for people who didn't donate?

[Mohamed Khairy]

i think we need to collect for about 300 $ if idea accepted  for getting an core i3 one !!
we can try to collect for core i3 + nvidia card
so the way is opened for Optimus development also !!
for collection the will donator will post amount of donation on topic and when we reach we need will talk to one of developer and if accepted donator will donate to him directly

-----
so the deal with developer will be
1- alps driver
2-optimus working
3-getting external mic to work
4- making package for post installation

and developed things will be opened to all
-----

today after finish my studying will write new guide
ان شاء الله
