With the latest AppleSupportPkg compiled from GitHub master branch I get a black background in the EFI login screen (I am using FileVault 2). The users and password box are drawn OK, just the background image is missing. Does anyone else have this issue?

Hi,

 

Have current clover 4658. When I try to use DumpUefiCalls.efi it does not work together with ApfsDriverLoader.efi - clover boot menu is empty, no bootable partitions shown. Is it supposed to be so?

Today when i updated Clover to r4674 and it cant boot and show this. 

Start
Start OSName

IMG_9537.thumb.jpg.7fe275641d092d3ce59d3838f78f9a61.jpg

 

After many times test i found it related with UsbKbDxe-64.efi.

 

If i delete the UsbKbDxe-64 efi then can boot normally and when i put UsbKbDxe-64.efi into Driver64UEFI and it show above error log again.

 

So i want to know does this driver not ompitable for the new os or it has conflict when the other drivers.

 

I use all the Clover Driver64UEFI excpt these below: 

OsxAptioFix2Drv-64
CsmVideoDxe-64
OsxLowMemFixDrv-64
OsxAptioFix3Drv-64
SMCHelper-64
OsxAptioFixDrv-64
EmuVariableUefi-64

And i found 3 groups similar drivers related with input. 

AppleKeyAggregator-64.efi
AppleKeyFeeder-64.efi
AptioInputFix-64.efi
Ps2MouseDxe-64.efi
UsbKbDxe-64.efi
UsbMouseDxe-64.efi

And the UsbKbDxe-64.efi cause my problem.

 

So does it needed to clean some drivers if it redundant or comfilict.

 

Thanks.

My keyboard is not working in clover 4674!
I can t boot any os.

Default drivers + emuVariable (efi drivers, no bios drivers)

Was working on 4658, i have an ami bios, laptop.

 

Try deleting problematic FV2 drivers (AppleKeyFeeder-64.efi, AppleKeyAggregator-64.efi) as mentioned in this post.  Unfortunately, these new drivers are selected by default by the standard Clover package installer...

— Doctor, doctor, it hurts when I do like this, please help me.

— Alright, do not do it like this, and it will not hurt :)

 

Really, if you have some hidden love in FV2 drivers, it could be understood, but the only thing you do is taking devs' time trying to understand wtf your issue is. Do not use the drivers until you really need FV2. End of the story.

Thanks i ll try, but 4658 is working with these drivers.

Yeah, but clover should not add problematic drivers by default

 

The default should be needed things to boot on most pcs, you can always add more drivers if you need them...

 

Anyway we will know when i try again

The Fv2 drivers are selected as default, even if they are not installed they are still checked to install on the next clover update. This is where the issue is. Maybe clover can be made to detect FV2 and check them or if no FV2 then uncheck them.

Can clover installer have a sub menu or a checkbox for FV driver options so at least we know the drivers in that selection are for filevault? the problem is that the clover project does not have proper documentation. so if the dev's do not explain there project or driver properly how are we as end users going to  know what they do. only recently did we get some info of the drivers with the last rewrite of the installer.

i understand your frustration but you as a dev might know what is what. clover is also used by non devs. but how can we help useres in the community when sometimes the dev's do not even know whats going on. like the issue sherlocks is having and he is a contributing dev.

 this is not a bash on you in any way or on anyone. it is just the gorilla in the room that no one likes to bring up. (problem no one wants to address)

 

i am the guy that has to help the end user use your projects just in case you where wondering.

Hi

Can you give a list of the drivers you are using with Clover and the deleted FV2 drivers.
