El Capitan Beta with Dell XPS 13 9343 (Early 2015 Model)

Rename GFX0 to IGPU, graphics_Rename-GFX0.txt when patched to DSDT, is causing boot failure. Therefore, this method of GPU PM is not possible under 10.12.3 as it has been in the past. Is there another way to achieve GPU PM? Thanks.

Must apply renames equally across all DSDT+SSDTs that reference the renamed symbol.
Read ACPI patching guide linked from the FAQ.

Got that squared away. Problem is the generated SSDT that is causing the boot failure. I'm going to change my SMBIOS back to MBP.

Question though, in Clover I see an option called DellSMBIOSPatch. I've searched to see what it does, but couldn't find anything. Any idea what it does? Obviously this is a Dell machine. Hoping it corrected the truncated ID issue?

I answered my own question. YES, the DellSMBIOSPatch option in Clover (the latest 4003) does in fact cure the truncated model identifier! So a MacBookPro12,1 accurately is reported to the system! Update this everyone.

After 10.12.3 update trackpad freezes after wakeup

I've been able to solve the camera on indicator light remaining on after stop of usage by modifying the vendor and product ids in the attached kext. Credit to those who wrote the actual kext.

Install with Kext Utility and give it a shot! If it doesn't work, simply edit the vendor and product ids in the package contents to your camera's values.

@egore, would you mind sharing your Clover "patched" folder? We have the exact same laptop configuration and I would like to compare your fixes with mine. Also, what bios version do you have? Thank you!

Not sure what a "patched" Clover folder is, but here is my Clover folder. BIOS A09

Thanks a lot! I meant the ACPI/Patched folder (which is contained inside of your zipped Clover file). Really appreciated.

Keep in mind that it is never a good idea to use patched ACPI files from another computer.
