El capitan compatibility #21

Open Majkwin opened 9 years ago

Majkwin commented 9 years ago

Hey guys El capitan is slowly rolling out. Has someone tried installing it in ours 573g? Does everything work just as it did on Yosemite? How was your impression?

Kaijun commented 9 years ago

haven't even tried. i'm just waiting for the official release :smiley:

wilsoxu commented 9 years ago

Hey guys,

I'm running El Capitan public beta 3 and I'm not having any issues with Wifi, sleeping, shutting down, sound, trackpad, keyboard. I installed the yosemite IO80211Family.kext to get my wifi working because I don't have a supported card (AR4357) 2 problems I have though are: a) When i wake up from sleep, my computer is really slow (CPU problem I think not running at full speed?) b) Plugging in HDMI auto crashes/reboots the system.

Kaijun commented 9 years ago

@wilsoxu Thanks for sharing! a) have you ever checked the CPU speed exactly? get the HWSensor and check the exact info of cpu speed or speedstepping. b) no idea :( google it or open a thread in the forums :)

wilsoxu commented 9 years ago

Hey @Kaijun

a) CPU multiplier is stuck at x8.0... I've had this problem before on Yosemite but it's fixable with SSDT edits i think.. b) Yeah I haven't seen anyone with this problem on the forums yet, but maybe it's because the Fake PCIID haven't been updated for El Capitan? :P

Kaijun commented 9 years ago

@wilsoxu if the speedstepping works totally fine before the laptop goes asleep, then there should be no problem with the SSDT, but it's probably related the DSDT, the part of "PTS" exactly. but even though, i also have no idea how to fix it... i don't know, we may just wait for the release version, or wait until some kind of guru posted the patches of DSDT for solving the problem.

wilsoxu commented 9 years ago

@Kaijun Speedstepping is not working when i turn on my computer... hmmm, do you know why that is?

edit: Speedstepping isn't working when i use my own dsdt, but when I use yours, I have speedstepping when i turn on my computer... hmm I'll take a look

edit2: i've re-dumped my DSDT from Clover and it seems to work now! :) I'll try to figure out HDMI problem now...

wilsoxu commented 9 years ago

@Kaijun Hey! So updating to El Capitan 10.11 Public Beta 5 actually fixed my HDMI problem... I've got HDMI fully working now

Majkwin commented 9 years ago

Hdmi audio also?

@Majkwin I can't seem to get HDMI audio working. I'm using VoodooHDA and it shows up as an option but it doesn't give me option to change the volume...

heres what i mean:

Majkwin commented 9 years ago

We have officially GM of El capitan, what means we should install it on our Acers :D What's working and what's not for now on EC?

Majkwin commented 9 years ago

Has someone tried installing El Capitan? I have problems with booting into installation. After few seconds computer restarts...

wilsoxu commented 9 years ago

@Majkwin you probably need to use the latest version of clover

Majkwin commented 9 years ago

Yes, I have v.3270 and disabled SIP and while booting installer I'm getting

"panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff88295273a6): "zone init: know_suballoc failed"0/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/xnu/xnu-3247.1.99/osfnk/kern/zalloc.c:2199 " for 0.2s and immediately computer restarts

Majkwin commented 9 years ago

Ok, I managed to install El Capitan. The only thing that isn't working right now is audio - I have to spend more time with it to find out what to change.

ApteryxK commented 9 years ago

@Majkwin I have the exact same error, I am on a Z97N-WIFI with I5 4690 and GTX 960. How did you fix it ? Thank you :)

Majkwin commented 9 years ago

It's a ram problem. You have to set memory in config.plist manually

Hi. Before I start, I must thank Majkwin and Kaijun for their DSDT edits that made the process SO MUCH easier for me. I use my laptop [i7 4500U, 8 GB RAM and GT 750 4GB(Disabled)] for school, and am planning to update to El Capitan as I need to use Xcode 7.2 Beta. Is it safe, as of now, to do so? screen shot 2015-11-02 at 5 14 55 pm

  1. Fine. System Information can't detect the number and size of RAM modules, so will edit config.plist.
  2. Will update Clover to 2.3k r3320.
  3. Will do.
  4. Can you attach the patch?
Majkwin commented 9 years ago

I will upload my config.plist for El Capitan later today. You have 8gigs of ram on two bones?

Thank you. No, a single 8 gig module.

Kaijun commented 9 years ago

thanks majkwin! Recently i have no time to maintain these stuffs! 'Cause i have many projects running on the environment that i already configured on Yosemite. So i would try 10.11 after that all my projects are finished. If you know how GitHub works, you can fork this repository and add your stuffs into this repo, then make a pull request. I will merge your commit into this repo so that all others will benifit :) On Nov 2, 2015 1:20 PM, "Majkwin" notifications@github.com wrote:

Ace73 commented 9 years ago

Any updates, Majkwin? I am currently unable to boot the second stage of the installation using Clover 2.3k r3320.

Majkwin commented 9 years ago

http://www.speedyshare.com/xS8B8/config.plist

Sorry for uoloading it this way. For You to know:

For working audio, you can not install modified applehda.kext - Only inject DummyHDA

Ace73 commented 8 years ago

Majkwin, sorry for the late reply. I am unable to boot into both the El Capitan setup and the existing install. This is what I am faced with, instead of the Apple logo, while booting.

beautifulsole commented 8 years ago

I'm also having difficulty booting into the El Capitan installer.

I'm using the latest Clover, installed for EFI booting only (which worked for Yosemite), changed the config.plist to disable SIP, and installed the newest FakeSMC, Aptio2Fixdrv drivers.

Any fix?

Edit: Ace has the same problem as me, and we have similar laptops: the i7-4500u variant. Perhaps it's something to do with the DSDT and SSDTs? In a similar vein, I have noticed that my CPU never scales up to 3.0 GHz using the DDST and SSDTs posted in this repo, even though my processor is capable of doing so. Perhaps I need to compile my own DDST and SSDTs.

Majkwin commented 8 years ago

Enable verbose mode and check what kind of error You have - then google it, or tonymac it :D My problem was related with RAM, so I set it manually in config.plist (2x4GB) that I provided You with. After that I could boot into installer without any problems.

beautifulsole commented 8 years ago

I did enable verbose. When I get the above "NO" error, it's the Osxaptio thing, which is fixed using the Aptio2Fix driver. When it's fixed, it just barely passes the aptio2fix thing, then flashes a warning on the screen for a split second before rebooting. Haven't been able to catch the error with a camera or otherwise.

I'll try the RAM fix, how do you set that? Either manually or using clover configurator is fine.

notly commented 8 years ago

@Majkwin Can you share the clover & kexts for the El capitan ? Tks very much

Ace73 commented 8 years ago

@Majkwin, I am not able to boot the installer. Using verbose mode is thus futile. I have a single 8 GB module, but the config.plist attached in the master file worked perfectly. Do I need to modify the config.plist given here?

striimer commented 8 years ago

Did manage install 10.11.1 on V5-573G, install went well, ram recognised correct. Only few problems hard to resolve, one is the new El Capitan usb issue, all external devices connected to the usb are visible with System profiler, unfortunately all internal usb bus devices such as cardreader, webcam, bluetooth not recognised at all by Sysprofiler. How did you resolved the thing ? second question is shutdown, with 10.10.x everything worked well, now not, obviously also influence of usb problem ? last problem is brightness control, with 10.10.x dsdt/ssdt worked with acpibacklight, now not, with 10.11.1 control works with apple backlight but brightness is not enough adjustable. Can someone upload his dsdt/ssdt-s ? will help resolving the problems, also any hint or good glue is appreciated. thanks

notly commented 8 years ago

personal points:

  1. usb problems: i think it was caused by the New OSX 10.11.1 drivers problem; fixed clover config will figure this out & right drivers : PS if you has elan touchpad, you can use the hackable elan drivers, search & install it .
  2. shutdown problem : usb problem
  3. brightness control: keyboard problem , install the right inner keyboard driver; maybe your acer V5 has Elan touchpad

Try & Reply. Could you share steps how to install it . i have a long time not dealing with Hacking OSX ....

striimer commented 8 years ago

Thanks leehz about comments. Short description about my install. Prepare and install El Capitan by following guide: http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capitan-laptop-guides/168236-guide-install-10-11-hp-elitebook-probook-others-clover-uefi.html you'll get also minimal set of essential kext's there (enough for clean install) and Clover 3316 (tried later also last 3320, but booting was slower). Using method 2b. (Manual way) usb install fitted on 8gb stick (300mb Clover + 7,75gb for os x). After install you can start deal with devices not working... Disable partly SIP (early called rootless mode), open Clover config and type to the RT Variables: BooterConfig 0x28 and CsrActiveConfig 0x3, reboot and start installing rest of drivers, like; working audio kext: https://github.com/Mirone/AppleHDA_10.11/blob/master/Laptop's/AppleHDA-272.50-ALC282_v1.zip just set audio layout to 3 in clover conf and works. Grab fake id files from RehabMan repo https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-fake-pci-id/downloads, install: FakePCIID_Intel_HD_Graphics.kext FakePCIID_Intel_HDMI_Audio.kext (wasn't time test yet) FakePCIID.kext FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext (if you have broadcom wifi) or FakePCIID_AR9280_as_AR946x.kext (if you have atheros wifi) updated ethernet driver: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-realtek-network/downloads updated fakesmc: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-fakesmc-kozlek/downloads voodoo keyboard/touchpad works fine: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-voodoo-ps2-controller/downloads updated battery driver: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-acpi-battery-driver/downloads after that you'll have to resolve some issues i have now, like usb not work fully, shutdown problem. Hope this short quide helps you with install. Strange thing with usb problems... but sleep works (blue led goes to orange pulse), after lid closing also goes to sleep, after lid opening automatically not waking, have to press any button for wake restart works, but you'll have to wait approx 30sec, before getting back boot screen (meanwhile screen is dark), after shutdown screen goes dark, but power remains (leds / fans on), needs powerbotton hold

Edited 20 Nov. Brightness control slider works fully now, with intelbacklight.kext and with early for 10.10.x prepared dsdt/ssdt-s. https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-intel-backlight/downloads Edited 22 Nov Brightness works well aslo with acpibacklight.kext: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-acpi-backlight/downloads USB works with injection of Clover and usbinjectall.kext: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-usb-inject-all/downloads clover_usb

toronadooo commented 8 years ago

@striimer Maybe you can upload all your Clover folder for El Capitan. Maybe will start working wifi & brightness. Thanks in advance.

striimer commented 8 years ago

@toronadooo here you go... download attachment, rename extension jpg to zip and decompress... You can inspect acpi tables and config list, there isn't no more useful in EFI folder, all kexts installed in S/L/E. FullHD clover bootscreen garbled image resolved by using lower reso during clover booting time. Almost everything works, except shutdown, usb also corrected lately, sleep works like a charm, reboot fast, brightness works with acpibacklight and wifi with fakepciidbroadcom, i'm using BCM94352 hardware. For usb install use fakepciid_xhcimux.kext (you'll get ports right between usb2 and usb3) and usbinjectall.kext, also you need dsdt usb patch prw(0x06) (RehabMan repo) and rename EHC1 to EH01 patch (google), anyway you need bunch of dsdt fixes as well for you dsdt. Brightness starts work when you fulfill 2 requirements, disable in dsdt & ssdt completely nvidia and apply brightness haswell fix in ssdt. I was too lazy map the keyboard hardware keys for brightness, so far using slider syspref/displays..., but it's not difficult, you'll find keys mapping info from RehabMan's repo, acpibacklight. efi

Silveryard commented 8 years ago

Would it be possible to integrate this into the mein repository to ensure el captain compatibility?

Kaijun commented 8 years ago

@Silveryard which? you mean the stuffs made by @striimer ? Sorry i haven't tried EL Captain jet... because currently i'm considering if i should buy a mac or not :smile: And I have so many projects under development on my V5-573g, so i can't take the risk of changing it to EL Captain.

If you guys have made any progresses of making El Captain work, please Fork this Repository, learn the basic usage of Git and Github. And then Commit your own stuffs and Push, then Pull Request to me and i will see what you have added and merge your stuffs to my repository!

@striimer which backlight controller did u use... still cannot fix backlight

michaelspeed commented 8 years ago

people with the i7 version can find necessary files here - https://github.com/michaelspeed/Acer-V5-573G-Hackintosh.git

see the el-capitan branch

clover updated, booting 10.11.3 not working - Wifi Nvidia brightness keys - see system preference>display (a brightness slider)

Silveryard commented 8 years ago

Works for i5 version too. Everything seems to work fine except USB. USB Drive, Mouse, Keyboard are all not recognised

Silveryard commented 8 years ago

My Procedure:

But now usb devices do not work. Strange. Any ideas what could have gone wrong?

michaelspeed commented 8 years ago

try this... https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-usb-inject-all/downloads

but my usb are working fine without it also.

Silveryard commented 8 years ago

Tried this but it did not work. My mouse has a builtin light. It lights up on boot and while clover os selections but turns off while booting to el capitan.

The suggested kext is also in your kexts directory so I already had it installed.

Silveryard commented 8 years ago

Is there a way to provide you more information that may help you @michaelspeed ?

michaelspeed commented 8 years ago

you can see the @striimer screen shot..and that to the kernel conf in clover. if that does not work. here is a link http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/306777-guide-usb-fix-el-capitan-1011/ this is a very extensive guide.

but if i were u. i would drop the my clover config coz i think macbook air 2013 did not come with a i5. you can follow @striimer guide. as that is all what i did. if you don't understand feel free to ask.

edit: just saw ur procedure ... it looks like do an install once again. but leave out the OS X-usb-injectall and instead use this- screenshot at feb 29 02-27-58

michaelspeed commented 8 years ago

btw i did install using that fix from clover.
