I have tried loading both sets of kexts, but when I load the Synaptics ones, it boots with no USB mouse, trackpad, or keyboard functions, I have even tried using the Synaptics prepreference pane for the trackpad settings and the com.meklort.ps2.helper.plist. When I install the ones for Elantec, I get errors that say the kexts are being refused. See the photo...Is there something I have to delete before installing these?

hello

 

what i see u have several ps2 kext ... not only one...

 

have u boot

 

-f -v to not use kernelcache ?

 

see carefully what u have installed

 

kext in mac os x only can be 2 places...

 

system/library/extensions

 

extra/extensions

 

or in cache files

Yes, I can see that the myhack.kext has an applePS2controller.kext in it's contents. I repaired permissions and the Elan driver attempted to load but said my hardware was version 2, and beta 4 would not work, I am going to try to find that kext now

 

Version 2 didn't work either. It says my hardware is not supported.

It's not a big deal. I can use external USB mouse, it would just be nice to have it working, in case the mouse breaks, or I forget to pack it. I used this method to do my installation. Supposedly it contains the exact kexts for this laptop, but still no trackpad working. Other owners have said they have gotten theirs to work, but not me.

After more research, I can see that there is not yet a kext for version 2 hardware, but he is accepting beta testers. Guess I will have to wait for the release...

I get error upon boot -v that says my hardware is version 2 (0x040102) elan firmware version 262402
