Hi All,
I was able to get High Sierra running on an old Toshiba laptop. Everything seems to be running fine (Graphics,Keyboard/Trackpad,Volume,Battery Percentage) besides the power management & brightness control. (Plus still awaiting on the order of the Broadcom Wifi NIC to come in, so I can finally have a network connection haha)
For Brightness: Tried the AppleBacklightFixup.kext guide with no success.
For Power Management: Found out that I was still using NullCpuPowerManagement.kext, and once I removed this it seems to be running just slightly better. When watching HWMonitor the spikes of CPU are insane during idle. Tried following the power management guide with no success either.
CPU is an Arrandale generation. Hopefully there is a fix out there.
Also not running any patched DSDT or SSDT's. I used MacIASL with a dumped DSDT & it only returned 1 error that it needed the GFX>IGPU rename (used CLOVER for that) does that mean there isn't anything to patch?
Any tips?
Thank you
