[Guide] ASUS ZENBOOK UX32LN. Fully working.

The EFI/Clover folder you provided does not support your claim.

You're right, sorry about that. I posted my set of DSDT/SSDTs earlier in post #48 #50, and #54.

I realise the proper format for sharing those are to post the entire Clover folder.

Here is the contents of /EFI/Clover with my set of DSDT/SSDTs:

ACPI/patched looks ok when compared to ACPI/origin

Big problems in config.plist:
- SSDT-0.aml is not listed in SortedOrder
- Clover DSDT "Fixes" (config.plist/ACPI/DSDT/Fixes) with already patched ACPI is a bad idea
- config.plist/SSDT/DropOem=true is required when patched SSDTs are in ACPI/patched
- config.plist/Generate=true is a bad idea with OEM CPU PM SSDTs

For CPU PM will also need ssdtPRgen.sh generated SSDT.aml and also will need to be in SortedOrder.

Thanks a lot.
I now generated an SSDT.aml with ssdtPRgen. I just typed ./ssdtPRgen.sh and it generated it automatically for my CPU.
I also fixed the errors in config.plist that you pointed out.

Still crashes on boot! Damn...

Resulting CLOVER folder:

Your config.plist lacks nv_disable=1 in Boot/Arguments.

As a result, Nvidia drivers are loading and interfering.

Note: Having files that are not AML in ACPI/patched is a bad idea.

Note: Your profile is inaccurate. It does not reflect the fact that your laptop has dual-GPU nVidia+Intel graphics.

It boots!

I didn't do anything to disable discrete graphics yet. Is that what you mean?

Your site profile (see site settings at the top of the page) should indicate both graphics devices... Not just Intel.

Thanks for the help RehabMan, recreating my own set of DSDT/SSDTs was worth it. Everything works.

View attachment CLOVER.zip for the record.

Only thing I'm dealing with now, are spontaneous reboots. Sometimes after 5 minutes, sometimes after 2 hours.
Where should I look for a crash log, to start with? Can't see anything in dmesg or system.log.

Download patchmatic: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-maciasl-patchmatic/downloads/RehabMan-patchmatic-2015-0107.zip
Extract the 'patchmatic' binary from the ZIP. Copy it to /usr/bin, such that you have the binary at /usr/bin/patchmatic.

In terminal,

if [ -d ~/Downloads/RehabMan ]; then rm -R ~/Downloads/RehabMan; fi
mkdir ~/Downloads/RehabMan
cd ~/Downloads/RehabMan
patchmatic -extract

Note: It is easier if you use copy/paste instead of typing the commands manually.

Post contents of Downloads/RehabMan directory (as ZIP).

Also, post ioreg: http://www.tonymacx86.com/audio/58368-guide-how-make-copy-ioreg.html. Please, use the IORegistryExplorer v2.1 attached to the post! DO NOT reply with an ioreg from any other version of IORegistryExplorer.app.

And output from:

kextstat|grep -y acpiplat
kextstat|grep -y appleintelcpu
kextstat|grep -y applelpc

Also, post EFI/Clover folder (press F4 at main Clover screen before collecting). Please eliminate 'themes' directory, especially if you have an overabundance of themes installed.

Also post output of:

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

Your stability issue is likely caused by USB WiFi. Install supported PCIe WiFi instead.

Also test without unneeded software like: com.globaldelight.driver.Boom2Device, net.lundman.zfs, VirtualBox, lspci_io.

Also, all kexts should be installed to /S/L/E instead of using kext injection.
