b101 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Hi, I've installed El Cap on my new ProBook 440 G3 i5 6200U HD 520 Skylake. I used Clover UEFI Method in order to get it running. Well, now would be a great time to get my Power Management to normal since my battery is being drained pretty fast and sometimes I get BIOS warnings because of time or heat or mainboard battery LOL I've tried Piker-Alpha ssdtPRGen.sh script but it gave me an error MacBookHP@Branimirs-MacBook-Air:~$ ./ssdtPRGen.sh ssdtPRGen.sh v0.9 Copyright (c) 2011-2012 by † RevoGirl v6.6 Copyright (c) 2013 by † Jeroen v18.2 Copyright (c) 2013-2016 by Pike R.

b101 Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 the guide says please download/run debugMachKernel.sh after that you should boot with the -cpuid msgbuf=309212 arguments to boot with -cpuid msgbuf=309212 do I have to sudo nvram boot-args="-cpuid msgbuf=309212" or am I wrong? EDIT: got it! I added the arguments via Clover Configurator and as it seems I could help Piker out with his research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b101 Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 But this brings me to another question.How do I know if my Power Management is working properly? I've downloaded the Intel Power Gadget, the Graphs are usually very low, when I start running something bigger it jumps up. the green on (GT), I assume to be Graphics? Its more or less always pretty low. My Fans are not blasting out of controll or anything.. I don't know if this is already normal LOL what would be an indicator that something is not right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
