Laptop/Notebook :- HP Pavilion G6-2149TX

System configuration :-

  • Intel Core-i5 3210M 2.5 GHZ processor
  • 6 GB 1600 MHZ RAM
  • Intel HD 4000 + ATI Radeon HD 7670M (2 GB) graphics
  • 750 GB HDD
  • 15.6" 1366x768 display


Was running Yosemite 10.10.1 (N{censored}) with working DSDT (RehabMan Laptop Patches) & Kexts,
Following worked :-

  • Intel HD 4000 graphics with QE/CL & Brightness fix (DSDT Patch) from RehabMan
  • Sound
  • Ethernet

I did a clean install of El Capitan 10.11.1 (Downloaded from App Store & used U{censored}) on internal HDD (Only MAC OS is present, no other OSs). Internal Keyboard & TouchPad doesn't work in installer & Recovery.
Restored a Time Machine backup of working Yosemite 10.10.1 that I made earlier, installed Clover, Essential CustoMac package, configured Clover plist & set SMBIOS to MacBookPro 9,2, injectIntel in Graphics, KernelLapic (as I coudn't boot without using BootArg "cpus=1"), RtVariables "CsrConfig=0x3".
Sound & Ethernet works out-of-the-box (Maybe due to Yosemite Time Machine backup).
Now, I must inject ATI & disable InjectIntel in Clover Bootloader in order to boot in to El Capitan. No QE/CL for ATI graphics though (Choppy Graphics), let alone Brightness fix. Intel HD 4000 shows up as "Display 4 MB" under "About MAC" & "System Report -> Graphics".
Shutdown/Restart is also not working.
I did try previously working DSDT (of Yosemite) in El Capitan using Clover config.plist, but, gives Panic due to something like ATI6000Controller (ATI GPU, maybe?).
I had working SSDT in Yosemite for CPU Power Management but, CPU works better without it (Less CPU temp). But, with El Capitan, I don't think Kexts are being used/loaded into OS, especially NullCpuPowerManagement.kext (Fault of SIP, maybe?)

I want to use Intel HD 4000 graphics natively (instead of ATI graphics by injection) with QE/CL & Brightness control, get CPU management by SMBIOS (using NCPM.kext) without using SSDT, Ability to use 3rd party Kexts, Working Shutdown/Restart

Please help me to find solutions...

For your Graphics problems, try Boot Arg, Slide=0 and Inject Intel.

 

RtVariables CsrConfig=0x3 should work okay.

 

You can try to fine tune this RehabMan config for HD4000, 1388x768,

When I use the above config.plist, my internal HDD partitions are not shown in Clover.. Even when fine tuned..
