Maybe its because I cant read the code. Or dont know how to, that might be it. I mean im versed in web code but this is totally different.
In any case, not even sure where to start or what direction to go. I mean I have a list of patches here from Olarila.com, a clean dsdt, and the patching program.
Lets start off maybe someone can give me a push in the right direction.
Motherboard - XFX Geforce 9300
CPU - Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300
GPU - Nvidia Geforce 450 GTS
I had this installed pretty much working on Niresh, no graphics acceleration, speedstep, and usb ehci ownership errors. It just seems odd to me that some of these generic patches here will work on this motherboard. I would just assume it would be different with different addresses for the hardware.
In any case, list of patches I downloaded to be applied.
SMBUS.txt
DTGP.txt
ALC888 - I have an ALC888s
Shutdown.txt
EHCI Sleep
EHCI ownership
AHCI sata orange icon.
I can just add these and they work? Is that really how it goes?
Attached I have a screen of my hardware taken from windows.
I mean hey, ive done my research but again where to start?
Booted under GraphicsEnabler=yes for chameleon.
npci=0x3000 is a must
Audio - ALC888s kext
Ethernet from niresh i used a Realtek 8xxx kext that was included.
Theres a slew of fixed kexts that are added in Niresh default so they wouldnt conflict with each other. Despite having the ioahci kext in there, it still did the orange sata icons still had to add the kext to fix it.
So where do i really need to go with this. Can I, or even do I need to edit the dsdt patches to work with this motherboard? Or can they just be applied easy peasy?
Oh also removed the AppleTYCME driver.
For the gpu there was something I read that mentioned editing the ApplePowerGraphics kext not the exact name but again not sure id like to get this supported through bios I suppose. Fiddled for a good few weeks with kexts and installers to get it to work and havent had much success.
Ideally I want to get all the fixes figured out and put the clover bootloader on there, however just fixing the dsdt would be fantastic in my opinion.
Thanks in advance anyone willing to listen XD I mean help with this board imparticular would be great. Help with understanding DSDTs would be amazing thanks!
