[inspiron-5370-hackintosh] Questions regarding adaptation to a 5390 laptop. #39

Open Luminoso-256 opened 1 year ago

Luminoso-256 commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I found your EFI for the Inspiron 5370, and, thinking that the models would likely be at least similar, tried to apply it to my very similarly specced Vostro 5390. While the operating system does boot, it seems that the macOS installer does not recognize the internal keyboard and trackpad of the laptop, making it rather difficult to actually get anywhere with setup. (The screen brightness is also very low, but that seems to be a seperate issue)

By any chance, could you give me a pointer or two on what parts of the configuration I should be looking at tweaking?

Laptop Specs: Intel i5-8265U UHD graphics 620 8 Gigs of ram

I have been attempting my install with Ventura (13.4)

Thanks in advance.

Hmm, investigating a bit further (after getting through setup itself with an external kb/mouse) it seems like the keyboard actually does work, but only until the trackpad is touched - touching the trackpad (which does not work) results in both becoming nonfunctional (driver dying for some reason maybe?)

Good evening and sorry if I only reply now. Been quite busy these days...

Regarding the keyboard and trackpad stuff I'd suggest doing the following, given you're using my repo as base:

Disable:

and inject VoodooPS2Controller plugins (mainly VoodooPS2Trackpad and VoodooPS2Keyboard).

Let me know if it fixes or not.

Your observation isn't bad but I'd check first if it's a driver dying for some reasons or other things
