RCOO Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I installed iAtkos ML2 on my Toshiba P755-103 (Satellite P755-103 - Toshiba , Atheros AR9002-1NGWB WiFi card, more info) and so far so good. Got most of it working, including my Intel HD3000. I gave up on my GeForce GT540M. However I'm getting very high temperatures (80ºC+). I was suggested this could be because of the GeForce GT540M, and I should disable it by patching DSDT. I would do it myself, but everytime I try to patch my DSDT I get tons of errors or an unusable system after reboot. I'd like to have it patched though to see if I could solve my temp issue. I attached my DSDT, which currently, only has the HD3000 VGA-out patch. I also attached the SSDT, extracted from Ubuntu. DSDT.aml.zip SSDT.zip I'd be thankful to anyone who can help me.

WhatTheTech Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Have you give this kext a try? http://www.osx86.net/view/2552-gt_540m_kext.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCOO Posted March 3, 2013 Author Share Posted March 3, 2013 Have you give this kext a try? http://www.osx86.net..._540m_kext.html I have. The Nvidia gets detected and its name shows up in the system info, plus, more information (like VRAM size). However, one thing is getting Mac OS X to recognize the hardware properly and other thing is making Mac OS X running that hardware properly, you know? I'm getting extremely high temperatures and the only thing that justifies them is really the GT540M.

RCOO Posted March 3, 2013 Author Share Posted March 3, 2013 Guess I'll wait for a DSDT patch and see if it's really the GT540M causing the temp issues. :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCOO Posted March 3, 2013 Author Share Posted March 3, 2013 So, I have been trying to do this myself, and, as far as I can tell, I have to copy the _OFF method from the first SSDT and paste it in the DSDT into the / scope. I try to compile and it fails saying: http://prntscr.com/uwnlp . I have a section on the SSDT, that defines all of the objects: http://prntscr.com/uwnti . I copy all of that to an area before the _OFF method definition on the SSDT. I then get an error: http://prntscr.com/uwo3p. What should I do? Where should I put the piece of code that defines these objects? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaldMeister Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Well, we had some contact over skype. Tried to add the patch, had some errors about the objects, methods etc, added them as external. Why i did this, if i fixed 1 problem, i created 20 others. DSDT attached. Method PINI added. DSDT.aml 2.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCOO Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) Ok. So Lejenk did another try (attached attempt in attachment). It was still a no go. He added a PINI () somewhere. So far Leject did this: i added the methods, and to the DefinitionBlock, i added the functions that gave errors, because the operating regions would add more errors\ DSDT.aml 4.zip Edited March 4, 2013 by RCOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaldMeister Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Method PINI has been added, to the _INI, WAK, _WAK. Added all the Methods to PEGP, PS0, PS1m PS3 etc, perhaps not adding _ROM could cause the issue of not disabling? The operating regions gave a lot of errors, so i added the sub functions as external.

RCOO Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 This DSDT worked: DSDT.aml.zip The graphics card got disabled. However, I'm still getting high temperatures (check image)! Any more ideas? http://prntscr.com/v3o32 Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCOO Posted March 7, 2013 Author Share Posted March 7, 2013 Ok. Some more problems. The battery icon in the menu bar has an X and says: "No battery is available", "Power Source: battery". This happens when I only have the AC charger connected, and no battery inserted. I tried replacing AppleACPIPlatform with the one from version 10.6.7, and nothing. The source of the power keeps being indicated as the battery, which isn't even in the laptop. Besides that: I patched AICPM and removed NullCPUPowerManagement. I have SSDT and it's being loaded according to bdmesg. P and C states are being generated. I am however having P-State stepper error 18. To try to solve this problem I followed the instructions on this topic (please read english instructions): http://olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1003&start=60#p13534 (my SMBios is MacBookPro8.2. I removed the indicated keys: FanThrottledRPM and FanMax (although the keys appeared in a reverse order comparing to the guide). Attached is the KP generated. I am able to boot if I restore the NullCpuPowerManagement kext. Any clues on how to solve these issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCOO Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 Ok. New problem when opening apps: http://cl.ly/0K092x0l1F2z Happens only with some apps. Any clues? About AICPM, I generated an SSDT using Pike's script. SSDT.aml.zip After that I reboot and get this KP: At the beggining, not visible in the image it complained about P-Stepper error 18, so I applied this fix: http://olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1003&start=60#p13534 I rebooted. Got the same error, but this time caught the beggining of the kp by not booting verbose: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
