[solved] Trackpad not recognized in HP Pavilion - 15-ak013tx 10.13.6

[irti251]

I'm using VoodooPS2 and my trackpad works along with double finger scroll etc but System Preferences say no Trackpad found.

Any suggestions on how to make it get recognized to be able to change its settings etc?

You forgot to implement battery status (yes, trackpad sysprefs and battery status are linked).

Hi, while trying to Patch DSDT, I get

21036, 6157, [Unknown ASL Compiler exception ID] (MDBG [Method])

Extracted by pressing F4 on Clover, I tried using all 3 uploaded iasl's from https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/acpica/downloads/ , which one would you suggest?

I'm using MaciASL RM-1.31 (252.4) downloaded from https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-maciasl-patchmatic/downloads/

I'm also using refs.txt and using the command

iasl -da -dl -fe refs.txt DSDT.aml SSDT*.aml

I open the dsl file, apply the patch, and when I click Compile I get the error I posted above. I searched a bit and came to the conclusion that this is usually caused by wrong tools but I tried to use the correct ones so not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Also, if I don't use refs.txt I get

12089, 6126, syntax error, unexpected PARSEOP_ARG1

Followed this advice, https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-errors-with-disassembling-acpi-files-and-compile.253275/

Error resolved for now, going to check if it works

This patch works for HP Pavilion - 15-ak013tx as well with a minor change i.e. commenting out External MDBG:

Use refs.txt without the MDBG line (it does not apply to your ACPI set).
