SavageAUS Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Does the method for disabling dGPU in laptops (nvidia) completely turn off the nvidia card or just hide it? I am already using -wegnoegpu but battery life is poor so I want to see if I can completely disable with ssdt or device properties method. Or does -wegnoegpu completely disable it and my battery is not good?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll probably want to add your own SSDT that calls _OFF. You may need to experiment to determine whether _OFF needs to be called once in an initialization sequence and possibly when your PC wakes (in _WAK). Google may be your friend to find example ACPI solutions where others have experimented with _OFF. Edited February 11 by deeveedee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentKnight is a tool for genuine Macs. It is not for hackintosh. It can be used in a hack for informations and some updates, but not for checking firmware. If you have questions about SilentKnight, check Macrumors. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavageAUS Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Ok so the last thing i need to take care of on my new hackbook (Acer Nitro 5 10th ge) is when I boot into windows from OC i get an error in device manager. Sound still works but i feel like opencore should not be interfering with Windows drivers? config.plist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deeveedee Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) On my HackBookPro6,2 running Sonoma 14.3.1, "Launchd.command install" works in Open Core 0.9.8 but not Open Core 0.9.9. With 0.9.9, I get the following install error when attempting to install LogoutHook: tee: /var/log/org.acidanthera.nvramhook.launchd/launchd.log: Permission denied I able to install/uninstall at will with LogoutHook 0.9.8, but not 0.9.9. EDIT: Launchd.command 0.9.9 runs fine in Sonoma 14.3 (Beta) and Ventura 13.6.5. EDIT2: Despite the apparent LogoutHook 0.9.9 error, the two-part LogoutHook appears to be installed: Edited March 12 by deeveedee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cankiulascmnfye Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 New OCLP is out. I was wondering why auto-joining Wifi networks no longer worked on my old card. Changelog has the solution: "Upgrading to 12.7.4, 13.6.5 or 14.4 may break Auto Joining WiFi Networks on legacy Wireless Cards. To restore Auto-Join support, forget the network and re-add it." 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deeveedee Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 It looks like the long-anticipated OC version 1.0.0 is going to be the next official OC version. To those who predicted that this release would follow version 0.9.9, you were correct! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issues cames from Opencore or Linux itself (multiboot between Debian based and Arch Linux) ? My deal is to have multiboot linux distros on a specific hard drive, and macos on another disk.

Max.1974 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Yes nice my friend @Matgen84 i've have been used Fedora Workstation 39 and its amazing project from Linux Fedora Team. Much advanced then macOs in many aspects, included editor to images, my tools from Certisign signature and the challenge now is try Compile Clover on Linux, just for knowledge and im surprise with so many resources from Linux Fedora, very easy to use, and thousands of programs.

Is anyone else finding this? I am hopeful that the OC OpenDuet issues that I've experienced since OC 0.9.7 are resolved in the next release of OC.
