Kyrieleis Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Hello, after successfully installing OS X 10.4 and 10.5 (from JaS and iDeneb DVDs respectively) on my Lenovo ThinkPad X200 Tablet, I wanted to try OpenCore for a more customized and documented experience. I am aiming for a Tiger install, beacause it suits my needs and runs somewhat smoother than Leopard from my tests. As far as I am aware the GMA X4500 Graphics of the laptop are not supported by any OSx86. Currently I am stuck at the OS X install screen, because neither my laptop's keyboard nor its TrackPoint are working. I can use USB mice and keyboards but I feel that misses the point of having a laptop with builtin input devices. Previously my keyboard did not work in the OpenCore boot picker but I was able to solve this with the guide. However, no method I found online works after Darwin loads. I have tried: Booting without any PS2 Kexts Using VoodooPS2Controller from acidanthera Using VoodooPS2Controller from RehabMan (This failed to load; see attachment 4) Using VoodooPS2Controller from khronokernel Using VoodooPS2Controller from BAndysc Using VoodooI2C[6] with VoodooI2CHID Using this method from the guide Included with this message are my config.plist (attachment 1), wich I updated appropriately (I hope) after each Kext change; the file tree of my install USB's EFI partition (attatchment 2) and an opencore log (attatchment 3) from when I used the VoodooPS2Controller kext reccommended in the OpenCore Guide. Here is the relevant output from dmesg | grep input from a GNU/Linux box: [ 2.037780] input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input0 [ 2.366692] input: Sleep Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0C0E:00/input/input3 [ 2.368070] input: Power Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input4 [ 3.402585] input: TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input5 [ 12.121305] input: ThinkPad Extra Buttons as /devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/input/input8 I hope someone with some more experience than I can help me with my struggle. Please let me know if I can help by providing additional information. In anyway, thank your for reading! config.plist opencore-2023-09-01-100127.txt Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/357540-input-issues-with-opencore-on-thinkpad-x200t/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your suggestion! As for the Serial Port: with local and online research I was unable to find a “Serial Port” option within the BIOS settings of the laptop. Instead, I tried a few different configurations, none of which resolved the issue. (For anyone else with an X200T: be careful when changing options in the IRQ section of the BIOS as every subsequent boot will yield two loud beeps, which cannot be disabled via the BIOS settings.) This is my current BIOS setup (though not the only I tried): Config ├─Network │ ├─Wake On LAN → Enabled │ ├─Flash over LAN → Enabled │ ├─Ethernet LAN Option ROM → Enabled │ ├─Hard drive Direct Memory Access (DMA) → Enabled │ └─Wireless LAN and WiMAX Radios → On ├─PCI │ ├─INTA PCI IRQ → Disabled │ ├─INTB PCI IRQ → Disabled │ ├─INTC PCI IRQ → Disabled │ ├─INTD PCI IRQ → Disabled │ ├─INTE PCI IRQ → Disabled │ ├─INTF PCI IRQ → Disabled │ ├─INTG PCI IRQ → Disabled │ └─INTH PCI IRQ → Disabled ├─USB │ ├─USB BIOS Support → Enabled │ └─Always on USB → Enabled ├─Keyboard/Mouse │ ├─TrackPoint → Enabled │ ├─Fn Key Lock → Disabled │ ├─ThinkPad NumLock → Synchronized │ └─Power-On NumLock → Off ├─Display │ └─Boot Display Device → Analog (VGA) ├─Power │ ├─Timer Wake with Battery Operation → Disabled │ ├─Intel(R) SpeedStep technology → Enabled │ │ ├─Mode for AC → Automatic │ │ └─Mode for Battery → Battery Optimized │ ├─Adaptive Thermal Management │ │ ├─Scheme for AC → Maximize Performance │ │ └─Scheme for Battery → Balanced │ ├─CDROM Speed → Normal │ ├─CPU Power Managemen → Automatic │ ├─PCI Bus Power Management → Automatic │ └─PCI Express Power Management → Automatic ├─Beep and Alarm │ ├─Power Control Beep → Disabled │ ├─Low Battery Alarm → Disabled │ ├─Password Beep → Disabled │ └─Keyboard Beep → Disabled ├─Memory │ └─Extended Memory Test → Disabled ├─Serial ATA (SATA) │ └─SATA Controller Mode Option → AHCI ├─CPU │ ├─Core Multi-Processing → Enabled │ ├─Intel(R) Virtualization Technology → Enabled │ └─Intel(R) VT-d Feature → Disabled └─Intel(R) AMT ├─Intel(R) AMT Control → Enabled ├─AMT CIRA Timeout → 0 ├─Console Type → VT-UTF8 └─IDE-R for normal boot → Hidden Security ├─Password │ ├─Hardware Password Manager → Disabled │ ├─Using Passphrase → Enabled │ ├─Supervisor Password → Disabled │ ├─Lock BIOS Settings → Disabled │ ├─Set Minimum Length → Disabled │ ├─BIOS password at unattended boot → Enabled │ └─Power-On Password → Disabled ├─Fingerprint │ ├─Predektop Authentication → Enabled │ ├─Reader Priority → External │ └─Security Mode → Normal ├─Security Chip │ ├─Security Chip → Active │ ├─Security Reporting Options │ │ ├─BIOS ROM String Reporting → Disabled │ │ ├─ESCD Reporting → Disabled │ │ ├─CMOS Reporting → Disabled │ │ ├─NVRAM Reporting → Disabled │ │ └─SMBIOS Reporting → Disabled │ ├─Intel(R) TXT Feature → Disabled │ └─Firmware Update Mode → Unattended Mode ├─BIOS Update Option │ └─Flash BIOS Updating by End-Users → Enabled ├─Memory Protection │ └─Execution Prevention → Enabled ├─I/O Port Access │ ├─Ethernet LAN → Enabled │ ├─Wireless LAN → Enabled │ ├─WiMAX → Enabled │ ├─Wireless WAN → Enabled │ ├─Wireless USB → Enabled │ ├─Modem → Disabled │ ├─USB Port → Enabled │ ├─ExpressCard Slot → Disabled │ ├─Ultrabay (HDD/Optical) → Enabled │ ├─Memory Card Slot → Disabled │ ├─Integrated Camera → Enabled │ ├─Microphone → Enabled │ └─Fingerprint Reader → Disabled └─Anti-Theft ├─Intel AT-p Moduele Activation → Disabled ├─Computrance │ └─Computrance Moduele Activation → Enabled └─ConstantSecure └─Full Theft Protection Moduele Activation → Disabled Startup ├─Boot Mode → Diagnostics ├─Option Keys Display → Enabled └─Boot device List F12 Option → Enabled If you or anyone else can help out with this, that would be greatly appreciated.
