    Disable or hide device

    Hi, yes, it's disabled in the BIOS. But it still pops up in IORegistryExplorer and it leads to an unnecessary network device "PCI Serial Adapter(22)". It's nothing to worry about other a cosmetic problem. Cheers, Tim

    Disable or hide device

    No one? I know it is possible to hide devices like this: ... Scope (\_SB) { External (RMEM, DeviceObj) Scope (RMEM) { Name (_STA, Zero) } } ... But instead of having a name like "RMEM" like in the example I only have the PCI ID pci8086,8c3d. Happy new year! Tim

    Disable or hide device

    Hello, I want to try to hide or "turn off" the KT controller on my Asus Q87T mainboard. Can this be done by an SSDT? The device is IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/pci8086,8c3d@16,3 Cheers, Tim

    Real OOB support for mini PCIe half size WLAN adapter

    Hi, thanks, but I need a half-size mini PCIe for my board. There's probably a small version of the BCM94360 but it seems to need extra kexts for Mojave (AirportBrcmFixup.kext + Lilu.kext) as mentioned here...

    Real OOB support for mini PCIe half size WLAN adapter

    Thanks BreBo, AirPortAtheros40.kext works nicely if I put it in /L/E but I can't inject it via Clover and I need WLAN during install. Any truly OOB card you are aware of? Tim

    Real OOB support for mini PCIe half size WLAN adapter

    Hi, I'm looking for a mini PCIe half size WLAN adapter for my mac mini build. The build is based on an Asus Q87T board and my current Atheros AR9280 stopped working moving to macOS Mojave. Is there any adapter in this format that is supported natively, i.e. without any patches, kexts...

    macOS Sierra does not recognize Intel HD4600

    Hi, even if you fix the color problems you'll probably not be vey happy with sierra on intel hd4600. There is currently no good fix for the safari video freezes.

    [SOLVED] Sierra / High Sierra / Mojave Freezes completely when playing video in Safari - HD4600/4400

    AppleIntelFramebufferAzul.kext is obviously not loaded. It seems your HD4600 is deactivated. The patch discussed earlier is for HD4600 only, i.e. it's not going to help you. I'm using a thin mini itx board in a small macmini'ish case and have no way to test my setup with a discrete GPU. The...

    [SOLVED] Sierra / High Sierra / Mojave Freezes completely when playing video in Safari - HD4600/4400

    The patch definitely makes a change: no more safari freezes but some side effects like slow video playback after sleep/wake. Are you sure you disabled the integrated GPU in your mainboard's bios? You can easily check if the troublemaker kext is loaded by typing sudo kextstat | grep -i azul in...

    [SOLVED] Sierra / High Sierra / Mojave Freezes completely when playing video in Safari - HD4600/4400

    Nope, definitely not fixed with the recent beta. Instant freeze when accessing certain web sites with video content. No problems whatsoever with 10.11.6. Cheers, bolmen

    macOS Sierra Public Beta is Now Available

    Morning, good to hear that everythings is fine. Does playing movie trailers or movies/TV shows in iTunes (i.e. DRM proteted material) work with the public beta and your setup (especially the DH4600)? KR, Tim

    Updating to El Capitan

    Hi, no worries. I think there are many potential hack builders who are not aware of this. Maybe this should be added to some general installation guides. I searched this forum and googled but couldn't find a solution. I'll update here if I find out something... Tim

    Updating to El Capitan

    Hi again, I got myself this neat little Asus Q87T board and the i5 4590T. Added 16 GByte of ram and a Samsung 256 GByte SSD (MSata); an Atheros 9280 as WIFI card. The system works perfectly with El Capitan and it seems all "basic" functions like sleep/wake, power management (with SSDT), power...

    Updating to El Capitan

    Thanks a lot for the instant reply and your excellent advice. I will go for the power saving 4570T CPU and the same board. Audio and WIFI is not a big deal for me since I have wired ethernet and a USB audio dongle that works perfectly on my current hack. Stability is an issue and I want to have...
