Any Core 2 users out there?

Need some guidance as to what common fixes should be selected in the Clover Configurator... G31 chipset, Core 2 Quad... 

 

Currently running Mavericks+Chameleon, but will be upgrading to Yosemite (tested the waters on my Core i5, me likey) lol.. This time around I've ditched chameleon and so far I love it, but now trying to apply this update to my older Core 2 Quad... 

 

A quick look in the /Extra folder shows me I'm using:

 

AHCI 3RD PARTY SATA.KEXT

 

EVOREBOOT.KEXT

 

FAKESMC.KEXT

 

JMICRON36XATA.KEXT

 

LEGACYAPPLERTC.KEXT

 

NULLCPUPOWERMANAGEMENT.KEXT

 

Also, the boot.plist shows I'm using:

 

EthernetBuiltIn=Yes

 

GraphicsEnabler=No

 

IGPEnabler=Yes

 

UseKernalCache=Yes

 

____

 

So, how do I implement these or do I even need these to switch to clover?

IGPEnabler=Yes

 

UseKernalCache=Yes <<< all of these can be inside clover. They might not be referenced the same but yes anything that is done inside chamleon boot plist it can be done with clover.

 

You can even get rid of NullCPU using a DSDT and SSDT that matches your board and cpu.

You can get rid of Reboot kext and RTC kext.

 

Look at all your specs right down to details.

Board model, brand.

CPU model. Core 2 Quad is very broad. e.g. Q6600, Q8200....

I have a 32 GB flash drive that I manually restored Yosemite Public Beta to via disk utility, lol too bad I didn't know about this!

Follow this to extract your DSDT and patch your CPU PR scope for your cpu. Pretty straight forward to follow should not take you long.

Also get a Ubunto live cd or any linux live cd. Open terminal.

sudo -s

then type "dmesg > ~/mydump.txt" then upload your dmesg txt here.

 

ALC882 is your audio so if running Yosemite >

-f = UseKernalCache= No

 

CLOVER config.plist >>>

add under this>>>

 

<key>Boot</key>

    <dict>

<key>boot-args</key>

<string>-f IGPEnabler=Yes EthernetBuiltIn=Yes GraphicsEnabler=No UseKernalCache=Yes</string>

 

if too hard use something like this>

Yosemite installed and running great... With some exceptions:

 

I could not get audio with provided link. I installed with kext utility and then kext wizard to no avail, fixed permissions and rebuilt cache. Used HDAEnabler 5 for my ALC662 codec and the provided AppleHDA Kext. Voodoo seems to be the only thing that works.

 

Also, I am able to login to iCloud and sync most of my stuff, but iMessage prompts me to call customer support with a generated code to activate it. 

 

Lastly, sleep still seems to freeze after wake-up. I extracted my dsdt in Mavericks and the utility automatically patched it for me. 

 

BTW thanks for your help, I really appreciate you and the level of support from this community. Can't get that anywhere else.

Don't rely on those silly auto patch text files that previous people make, dsdt will always change depending on your motherboard firmware.

With the audio try different audio enables depending how many audio outputs you have. 3, 5, 7, etc etc.

Double check your audio codec using dmesg from ubuntu or another live cd.
