does this script not work anymore? not getting a patched applebacklight.kext in user/patched despite having the stock applebacklight.kext in the script folder/vanilla

Yes, projects that are never attempted have a high rate of failure :/ And the trackpad is synaptics not elan like the linked kexts. Should be totally doable for someone with the skills, time, and attitud

Not for audio production! No dgpu is a good thing for audio, fewer clocking issues. Why do you video guys never think about us audio pros? Were like the bastard child of the modern mobile tech industry! :p

voodooi2c is not deprecated, it could be used to get more precise tracking/gestures via the SMbus port (acidanthera's vooodoops2 uses ps2 only which is not as good) its worth doing, as mentioned before one would need to get the synaptics drivers to work like the elan ones do in this kext-...

you could install high sierra + nvidia web drivers and get the nvidia card working that way

dw1560 aka bcm94352z should work too

its a precision touchpad so its connected on SMBUS and PS2. This can be verified in with lscpi in linux. It *should* be possible to get the gestures working with vooodooi2c if it can be seen via SMBUS, similar to how this kext sees the elan trackpad- https://github.com/gokula/ELANSMBus On...

is there anyway to port this to work on the T480? The T480 has a synaptics touchpad on PS2 and SMBUS.

you'll need vooodooi2c implimented for more advanced gestures, specifically the synaptics satellite kext. https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/wip-voodooi2c-i2c-trackpad-limited-support.204227/

isnt there a bios option for 'dedicated graphics only' which would presumably connect the dgpu to the internal display? maybe see if that change the tb3 routing? also I don't think you'll have any luck getting it working at all on mojave, best to do an install with high sierra and use nvidia web...

wow nice work man. I have a T480S, let me know if you need testing help implementing power management. thanks.

best place to start would be to ID the trackpad...go to Device Manager in Windows, right click on the trackpad and show info

hey guys, can you post what model trackpad the x1 extreme has? I want to see if we can get vooodooi2c working w/ native gestures for this laptop.

any chance you guys could post a list of *best* supported trackpads? IMO the trackpad really makes or breaks the Hackintosh laptop experience and VoodooI2C is currently the best shot at the native experience. For us creatives this is super important. Seems like the Dell XPS 15 9560/9570 is...

Has anyone tried to get the Nvidia 1050 Ti working in macOS? I noticed the x1 extreme has a bios option to disable integrated graphics and force the dgpu to use the internal/external displays so hypothetically this is possible (no optimus support required). Thanks
