ok booting now without safe mode :)

 

removed /s/l/e/GeForce*

 

(yes I know previous instructions given)

 

Once booted no nw interfaces (only Bluetooth DUN) were available. i have retested the Atheros.zip Apple80211Networking.kext but no luck. No wireless appears (actually the only available interface BT DUN dissappeared).

 

Also no ethernet interface was available.

iFire.... a summary so far...

 

Networking

 

Ethernet:

 

Working and appears stable after installing following

 

IONetworkingFamily.kext

IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext

RealtekRTL81xx.kext

 

AppStore login ok

iCloud login ok.

 

Wireless:

 

Surprisingly no change. Might start looking at doing this.

 

Bluetooth:

 

Bluetooth Dialup Networking available however when adding interface appears to break ethernet.

 

Power Management:

 

Battery:

 

Battery icon was initially showing up however following install of FrescoUSBxHCI.kext it stopped functioning and the indicator just shows "x now.

 

I have tried removing and reinstalling AppleSmartBatteryManager.kext but see the following in driver messages.

 

AppleSmartBatteryManager:getBatteryBIF(0xE00002BC) failed

 

Sleep:

 

Machine sleeps. When it comes back online touch pad isn't active. USB BT adapter mouse (Logitech MX) is able to wake up machine.

 

What further tests can be run for Power Management ?

 

Sound:

 

Sound still not there getting:

 

Sound assertion in AppleHDACodecGeneric at line 360

Sound assertion in AppleHDACodecGeneric at line 360

Sound assertion in AppleHDACodecGeneric at line 360

Sound assertion in AppleHDACodecGeneric at line 360

Sound assertion in AppleHDADriver at line 1077

Sound assertion in AppleHDADriver at line 1052

 

Greyed out sound controls.

 

USB 3:

 

Installed FrescoUSBxHCI.kext and received black screen when rebooting. Rebooted into safe mode and removed.

 

Ports appear to all function - if they are acting all USB2 rather than USB3 thats ok since I have no USB3 gizmo's.

 

Voodoo kexts:

 

Tried installing Voodoo kexts and only VoodooPS2 controller was loaded afterwards.

 

What would be using this ?

 

I have deinstalled since I don't yet see any real benefit. Please correct me if I am missing something (again).

 

FakeSMC.kext

 

I have not loaded this copy since it is version 4.0 and I am currently running 4.2 (from ######).

 

Is there any reason I should be loading it ?

 

THANKS SO FAR !!!

 

BTW whilst I was writing this the Battery monitor icon started working again. Following reboot it is down again....

Yes thinking the same about buying a card from Ebay.... apparently this card is a BT / Wireless combo so might be harder. Any suggestions / links ?

 

As for sound...

 

I have been checking out this but unsure how to proceed when I need to "correct" the verb data.

 

So far extracted the Pin Complex - any one able to correct or explain what needs correcting so I can proceed ?

 

Extracted pin complex so far:

 

Node 12 : f0 11 11 41

Node 14: f0 11 11 41

Node 15: 1f 10 21 03

Node 17: 20 01 17 90

Node 18: 30 18 a1 03

Node 19: 40 09 a7 90

Node 1a: f0 11 11 41

Node 1b: 10 01 17 90

Node 1d: 1d a2 06 40

Node 1e: f0 11 11 41

 

Node 14 EAPD : 02

Node 15 EAPD : 02

 

On the other hand if I can make PinConfiguration changes in DSDT HDEF can someone explain how the above related to that below

 

DSDT HDEF:

 

 

              "PinConfigurations", 
                       Buffer (0x2C)
                       {
                           /* 0000 */   0xF0, 0x11, 0x11, 0x41, 0xF0, 0x11, 0x11, 0x41,
                           /* 0008 */   0x10, 0x00, 0x13, 0x90, 0x40, 0x40, 0x21, 0x01,
                           /* 0010 */   0xF0, 0x11, 0x11, 0x41, 0x30, 0x90, 0xA1, 0x01,
                           /* 0018 */   0x50, 0x00, 0xA3, 0x90, 0xF0, 0x11, 0x11, 0x41,
                           /* 0020 */   0xF0, 0x11, 0x11, 0x41, 0x60, 0x80, 0x03, 0x40,
                           /* 0028 */   0x20, 0x00, 0x43, 0x90
                       }

TakeawayDave, What about the Nvidia GT650M, still no light right...? the other day I've run into a Hong Kong version and there's no option to disable the HD4000 or GT650M @ bios level... the reason behind is I've a Benq S42, also with dual graphics(GT9400 & Intel HD one, forgot the numbering) in order to made the Nvidia work hve to flash a Nvidia graphics only bios....may be our hack don't like optimus.. :wink2:

Blackfire920... the Optimus technology is known to not be part of OSX technology now and is therefore unsupported. As far as I know there is no such disabling option for one or the other GPU. Never heard of any flashing to address this but if you have any links I'd be more than interested to read. Probably hold back from bios flashing myself since my laptop is actually work provided....

Dave, forcing bios is for my old benq s42 only, not the Samsung np550... Of course if it can be done on the np550, I'll.get one ASAP for on location quick edit...one last thing is the latest MBP also have the same dual graphics chip or Nvidia only...?

 

Found, Mbp have both:

Oh in that case... any light on how to forcing nvidia only on the np550.....
