oSxFr33k Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) MY problem solved with LCD brightness. WEG alone does not take care of this for Laptops that have only Nvidia GTX and Intel integrated graphics disabled. We still need AppleBacklightFixup and WEG alone does not work. We still need WEG obviously, but whatever code is in ABF needs to be included in WEG for future releases for NVIDIA support. I was able to get ABF to work again with a bootflag to run on unsupported software such as Beta Catalina so once the final version of Catalina is released it will work without this flag "-applbklbeta hopefully. We need future release versions of WEG to support exactly what ABF does for Nvidia GFX, and not just Intel.

SavageAUS Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I also have AppleACPIEC loading under EC and AppleBusPowerController under IOResources. EC is renamed from EC0 in config.plist. Doesn't seem to be causing me any issues. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/339035-pre-release-macos-catalina/page/65/#findComment-2691758 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Freeman Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) I haven't noticed any ill effects from loading AppleACPIEC here either. All three of my hacks have been loading it for years. I didn't even look into this until I tried to update my laptop to this latest Catalina build. Without a EC device (even dummy) my USB ports would cut out shortly into boot causing it to hang. Nothing is attaching to it in the IOReg in Catalina but it still can't boot without it. Out of curiosity I tried to block loading AppleACPIEC on my X79 (where I've had EC0 renamed to EC in DSDT) with a SSDT that disabled EC0 and injected a dummy EC device but the system wouldn't boot. Maybe it's more of an issue on newer hardware. Mine is all Sandy/Ivy era.

Every time I install over the previous version things go wrong for me something to do with the Data volume, I think I am suppose to boot to that after the initial somewhat short install it boots to install but its the Data Volume, I am guessing that is where the image is initially placed so when I continue from there it seems to complete the second portion reboots but wants to install again from the Data volume where the image was placed so my install keeps looping over and over. Do I need to remove the Data Volume before proceeding with the install? Is the Beta/Developers preview version in the version.plist?

If you remove the data volume, you will lose your files. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/339035-pre-release-macos-catalina/page/65/#findComment-2691814 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe format only the Catalina Volume leave the Data one alone, I'll try that and install fresh. Ok the update through Settings Update went fine. Maybe its the full download and update from that installer that I am having a problem with? So its puts the installer onto the Data Volume but does not want to boot to that volume wants to boot back into Catalina without continuing the install. I have to choose the Data Volume from Clover GUI to continue and complete the installation.

Now i installed IPG and rebooted and it was fine i think but then i installed iCue for my keyboard and mouse and of course it needed a reboot. Upon rebooting it just goes into a boot loop. I think beta 9 is very screwy. Does anyone know how i can download beta 8? Just remove /Library/Extensions/EnergyDriver.kext will solve your problem. Then, roll back to Intel Power Gadget 3.5.5 will work.

matgeo Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Just a note about IPG 3.6. I had two sudden reboots since I installed it. Never had that problem before.

SavageAUS Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Ok so Catalina beta 10 + IPG 3.6.0 on my desktop is still a no go. Luckily I have Mojave on another ssd that I can boot into do delete the EnergyDriver.kext with because single user mode says it’s a read only file even with mounting with mount -uw /So I am at a loss, what could possibly cause my rig to be so incompatible with IPG 3.6.0. It works fine on my laptop. Hopefully intel fix this. Or maybe someone can shed some light.
