Disabling Optimus leads to no Turbo P-States

[fjfc]

Hi, I'm needing some help, so, I did a Patch in my DSDT to power off my nvidia card (Optimus) as I can't use it, but, it also disabled the turbo states of my processor, I have a Dell Xps14 l421x 3517U Mobile processor with gt630M, the patch i did to disable optimus card and get more battery and less heat was to copy

\_SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP._OFF ()

from my SSDT and put it into my DSDT and call from _INI and _WAK methods of _SB.PCI0.

I attached m patched DSDT and SSDT.

I use clover bootloader in legacy bios.

I'ld appreciate any help.

thx

Hey man, thx for the reply

This leads me to crash , here:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/cbixrrop5ddxmgk/2013-07-16%2018.05.08.jpg

I think caused by:

 

            While (LNotEqual (LNKS, Zero))
           {
               Sleep (One)
           }

 

when i comment this loop, system boots and the optimus card is disabled successfully, but I also lose turbo pstates

hello

what i read u mess with u ssdt tables to disable nvidia...

if the script to generate a new ssdt don't work... only think ..

boot with normal dsdt with nvidia and generate ssdt.aml

and them boot with the one no nvdia.. and use the ssdt generate before

good hack

Do you understand my problem?? I copied the code from SSDT and Patched in the DSDT to call the _OFF method...

Is it better for you english or portuguese?

Are you saying for me to try to disable the optimus with patched DSDT and use the normal SSDT??

[artur-pt]

hello

what i try to say is

generate ssdt with script with normal setup .. and then try to use it with patched no nvidia dsdt

good hack

[fjfc]

Oh, I got it, you mean the SSDT for the Ivy States? Using that script ssdtPRGen?? I don't use it, it is clover that generate my states...

hello

that way u must ask there in clover thread if any solution for that...

u are using uefi boot ?

if so, many problems to resolve with uefi boot in clover

try with a pen in legacy and see if u have the same problem..

good hack

[fjfc]

I'm using legacy boot...

[artur-pt]

hello

post u config.plist

and boot.log

good hack

[fjfc]

hello

i don't see nothing about states ?

good hack

[fjfc]

The states are automatically generated by Clover on my Ivy bridge, also, SSDR is dropped by default too

[pernacabeluda]

I see you fixed the issue

http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=2772&view=findpost&p=32679

Can you specify which optimizations you made?

[fjfc]

DSDT needed to be properly patched, the guys in InsanelyMac helped me, new DSDT fixed attached.
