Add compatibility for macOS 10.15 #123

Open julian-poidevin opened 4 years ago

julian-poidevin commented 4 years ago

On macOS 10.15, when executing the command : https://github.com/julian-poidevin/MBPMid2010_GPUFix/blob/cfe45c3f0ccd8fdf7bf501c1eef07c69b806df33/mainwindow.cpp#L727

The terminal throws the error "Read-only file system". As suggested here, this can be fixed using : sudo mount -uw / before removing the kext.

This command should be executed before operations on kext on any macOS version >= 10.15

Julian, thank you very much for addressing the problem with 10.15. I´ve got a mid2010 MacBookPro with a Catalina Patch and if I´m running your app it tells me that the GPU Fix failed. I´m not in programming :( any advice how I can fix the problem. Will there be a 0.6.2 of git hub that fixes the problem?

Thank you very much for all your work

Axel

@slalomier This is not released yet, I'm running into some compatibility issues with the version of the framework I'm using. In the meantime, you still can open the terminal app, and execute the command below before launching the patch :

sudo mount -uw /

Thanks,

@michcio19 Oh damn, what a misunderstanding. I thought you were not speaking english fluently and you tried to ask if I was sure my patch was working. I didn't know about the new macOS name at the time 😂.

As I can see on this reddit thread, you may not have to mount the disk anymore.

If you still have issues, I would suggest trying theses alternatives :
