Same here! My laptop running 10.14.6 started restarting 1-2 times a day since a couple of weeks ago (maybe related to update to 10.14.6), usually when I have a lot of services/database/docker etc running for work...Can't see anything useful in the logs. No external drives connected, everything...

Woah, that's great news about VoodooI2C - I had to remove the kexts since kernel_task and hidd processes were constantly using ~13-25% of CPU until I did...So currently running without a touchpad, which can be a hassle occasionally when on the road...Thanks for sharing!

I have the same problem - have you been able to solve it eventually? Thanks!

Thanks so much for the effort @vettz500 , extremely happy that it solved the problems! :) Will try the kexts right away.

Great to get your hopes back up! :) Yeah, I saw the same and it really turned out that way yesterday - didn't have issues for a long time, put the kexts back, CPU immediately higher constantly, and after 2 hours, freeze. Removed kexts and worked all day today with no issues. I'm fine without...

Same - 970 EVO. Yesterday when I wrote the reply above, I left the Voodoo trackpad kexts in Clover/kexts and got a random crash, after about 2h of working...

One additional thing to note - before a while, I noticed high CPU usage in idle (constantly between 13-26%), by the kernel_task process, and connected it to trackpad kexts. Once I removed VoodooI2C, VoodooI2CHID and VoodooPS2Controller, CPU usage got back to minimal. I then checked the github...

Really sorry to hear about stability issues, @vettz500 - I don't have any similar issues... Sometimes it restarts when waking from sleep, but rarely - other than that, really solid and I use it for work, quite happy with it at this point, and mostly thanks to your guide! Can I help in any way...

Sorry for the late reply, didn't get any notifications for this :/ Hot-plugging works fine, I do it all the time! Congrats on the sexy Mercury version - wish they sold it outside of USA when I was buying! :)

Can confirm that neither HDMI nor Mini DisplayPort work without Nvidia graphics enabled, which was a serious blow for me, since I use 3 external monitors for work and didn't expect this. However, I can also confirm that Thunderbolt 3 works excellent - you can connect an external monitor to it...

Glad that I'm not the only one - yeah, UI freezes for a couple of seconds, springboard restarts (all windows closed, dock rebounces etc), and then it immediately gets stuck, need to restart the laptop...Was looking through the logs but found nothing indicative, tried to use Safari instead of...

Has anyone been able to run with multiple monitors? I have the GTX disabled and TB3 is outputting to an external monitor nicely, but both the HDMI and mDP are blank...Are they both connected to the GTX, so that is the reason or is it maybe just due to framebuffer patching for connectors being...

Yes, and it's amazing - but hard to look at my external monitor with the same eyes again - even just the mouse cursor seems so choppy after this buttery-smooth thing.

@vettz500 - thanks for the updated files! This is now a decent work machine :) One of the last things is to get 2 external monitors working - TB3 works nicely, but mDP and HDMI do not seem to be outputting. I know that HDMI is connected to the GTX and I have mine disabled as I don't use it and...

@vettz500 - thank you so much for your effort and putting this together! *bows I just got my RB15 and this guide couldn't have been better timed in my case. I had a couple of issues before I saw it, but managed to clear up the most after following your guide - only audio still not working for...
