Black screen after Post Install Root Patch #16

Closed osmadro closed 2 years ago

osmadro commented 2 years ago

Hi :)

After downloading Open Core Legacy Patcher and follow https://github.com/jtaczanowski/ThinkPad-X201-Arrandale-macOS-OpenCore#getting-graphics-qeci-acceleration-to-work my T410 shows black screen after the verbose bootup. Any fix for that?

Grats, Osmadro

Hi @osmadro :) Did jutro try just reboot your computer? Similar situation happened to me one time - after installing Post Install Root Patch I had black screen. After turning on and off my computer it started working. What graphics do you have? Intel HD?

osmadro commented 2 years ago

Yes sir, I rebooted but every time I have black screen. I swap the SSD to my father's X201 and its works,, but in my T410 not :( I have Intel HD (Intel I5-540M) and without patching works, but really really slow. Every time I boot up the laptop load everything until the login, only the verbose is showing and then black screen. I remember one time after the verbose, the laptop showed a 🚫 logo with the verbose glitched. I used your EFI and I follow all the methods you used. Hope you can help me with this :) @jtaczanowski

Hmm, I think that included DSDT.aml which is extracted from x201 may cause problems. Please try to disable it in config.plist https://github.com/jtaczanowski/ThinkPad-X201-Arrandale-macOS-OpenCore/blob/main/EFI/OC/config.plist#L20 (<key>Disabled</key>) and check if will this solve the problem. DSDT.aml included in this repo had applied patches for battery indicator and apple lpc device address (CPU power management). Maybe it will be needed to extract DSDT.aml from your t410 and apply patches again.

im going to try it, hope its work

osmadro commented 2 years ago

nope, its not working, i edited the config.plist with propertree ¡, changin the DSDT.aml string to False and its not working. If you need files from my EFI of my t410 tell me and i will link it here. Btw im new at hackintosh so maybe I will have some difficulties with the files :)

jtaczanowski commented 2 years ago

Please link your OC directory - I will look on it. But if it is working on x201 - I currently have no idea why on t410 it is not working. Unfortunately I don't have t410 on which I could test it. T410 spec looks pretty similar (the same CPUs, graphics cards, LVDS connection to screen) too bad it doesn't work :(

osmadro commented 2 years ago

well, thanks for you help :) I can confirm that the project work in x201. Sadly I erase the SSD and staring to do a hackintosh on another laptop I have with an Nvidia graphic card. I will close this. Maybe in the future I give another try. TY so much @jtaczanowski
