I want to install Sierra on my laptop (Clevo N850HK1), and I've got the system and the built in HID working so far. My next step was going to be turning off the dGPU, but I ran into a problem I can't solve.
The guide for doing so, as seen here, tells me to patch my DSDT/SSDT, and refers to the guide here. However, when I try to disassemble my ACPI files, as shown in the guide, I get the following error:
ACPI Error: [_CST] Namespace lookup failure, AE_ALREADY_EXISTS (20161210/dswload-462)
ACPI Exception: AE_ALREADY_EXISTS, During namespace lookup/catalog (20161012/psobject-310)
Could not parse external ACPI tables, AE_ALREADY_EXISTS
This error also shows up when booting into e.g. Linux, but Linux just ignores it and boots anyway.
Now, the guide seems to suggest I must fix my ACPI files to remove this error, but in order to do that I must edit them, and in order to do that I must first disassemble them, but I can't disassemble them because they're broken. What crucial part of the story am I missing?
