Enable I2C Trackpad (VoodooI2C) - Not a Guide... not really

Q: What is a Hackintosh?

A non-Apple computer configured to run macOS using compatible PC hardware combined with a custom bootloader and configuration files to emulate a real Mac environment.

Q: Is building a Hackintosh legal?

Installing macOS on non-Apple hardware violates Apple’s End User License Agreement (EULA). It is generally not illegal for personal experimentation but not permitted for commercial use.

Q: What hardware is best for a Hackintosh?

The best hardware closely matches real Apple systems, with Intel CPUs (6th Gen to Core Ultra), AMD Radeon GPUs, compatible chipsets, and Intel-based Wi-Fi cards offering higher success rates.

Q: Can I build a Hackintosh with an AMD CPU?

Yes, macOS can run on AMD Ryzen CPUs using kernel patches, but Intel CPUs provide better native compatibility.

Q: What is OpenCore?

OpenCore is a modern Hackintosh bootloader that provides near-native macOS behavior and is the recommended bootloader for new installations.

Q: Is Clover still supported?

Yes, Clover is still supported but less recommended compared to OpenCore for modern systems.

Q: Which macOS versions support Hackintosh?

Hackintosh systems support macOS versions from Leopard up to recent releases, depending on hardware compatibility.

Q: Do NVIDIA graphics cards work on Hackintosh?

Only older NVIDIA GPUs work on older macOS versions; modern NVIDIA GPUs are incompatible with current macOS releases due to lack of driver support.

Q: What is an EFI folder?

The EFI folder contains the bootloader, drivers, kexts, and configuration files required to boot macOS on a Hackintosh.

Q: What are kexts?

Kexts (kernel extensions) are drivers that enable hardware functionality such as audio, Ethernet, USB, and graphics.

To the best of my knowledge everything works except the wifi(which is because of unsupported hardware), Ethernet and trackpad both of which I can't live with.

Morning guys,

I'm not one for asking for help, but this time I'm needing the skills of someone to get my Trackpad and Keyboard up and running.

I have a Probook 440 G5 using OC 0.6.1 i5 8th Gen KBL, I have everything else working, Bluetooth,wifi etc etc, just can't get this bloody thing up and running.

After I managed to get battery stats working, the keyboard and trackpad failed to work, so not sure if it is to do with that??If I use VoodooI2C kext or VoodooPS2 kexts, my machine fails to load

I've looked through this thread and tried the pinning and still not working, worse thing is I know the trackpad is supported!!!I'm so near, but yet so far

If someone could kindly take a look at this to see where I've gone wrong, that would be smashing

many thanks in advance

Hi mad0n,

I have used the patched DSDT but sadly it doesn't go past

AppleIntelpssI2CController-1 : :_notificationPublishedHandler: getChannelNumber failed

I feel like throwing the thing out of the window, but then I wouldn't have anything to tinker with

If there is anything else you can do, it's greatly appreciated

Sorry sir I'm just a noob, what do you mean need a good folder? About that use only ec0 to ec, does it mean I will disable the others in DSDT patches in clover? and where is _sta rtc fix in ACPI, I only see Fix RTC checkbox.

Hi Mald0n,

I've added in the EC patch but still freezing upon trying to boot, I have linked my EFI:- https://filebin.net/ewrmf65bblm754cl

Would you kindly take a look at this for me to make sure I have everything right?I haven't added in the patched DSDT you sent me, I have put one prior to being patched.I'm pulling my hair out

Hi MAld0n,

I've still been trying to get this trackpad and keyboard to work without success, did you get a chance to have a look at my config at all?

Hi @MaLd0n,

I have a VAIO FE14 with i3 8th gen, I already tried lots and lots of things and I can't get my I2C touchpad to work (I believe it's a Synaptics). Could you please send me the file?

Thanks so much!

O procedimento seria só substituir o config.plist e colocar o DSDT na EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched né? Infelizmente tentei aqui mas não foi ?
