Hi all,
I have installed Catalina 10.15.7 on the above. Currently it's running from a USB-C drive while I wait for a new SSD (shouldn't be relevent). Most stuff is working OK but I'm having a hard time with the battery and I think it's time I need to dig deep into ACPI.
I've been through the battery guide here but I'm a bit lost because I've not really seen much that appears to match up with what I'm seeing so I'm hoping someone can give me a nudge in the right direction please?
The readout is there but the AC adapter is not getting detected (existing patches for Clevo's in the repo don't apply to this one) and also when there is 7 minutes remaining until full charge, MacOS thinks this is 7 minutes left until 0% (or 7% left, I'm not sure).
In the EmbeddedControl struct there are only a few values and they're all 8 bit already - I don't know if that is good or bad?:
I can see from the boot log that the _PSR method is failing but I don't have the first idea at the moment what to do about it.
I've included what I think are all the requested problem files. I've stripped the EFI folder of anything that hasn't been customised (so kext's are just referenced in the plist but not present). The OC dumped DSDT / SSDT is in the EFI zip in the 'sysreport' folder together with the memory map. I've also attached the output from decompiling the DSDT as there are a couple of messages there, and I've also attached a grep of the boot log for "ACPI" (truncated because there is a message that just repeats over and over because my battery is 4ma over the advertised full capacity).
I don't know if it's relevant but in order to install I had to disable the "DevirtualiseMmio" option to avoid a kernel panic. Post install I've whitelisted all the reported memory regions and that seems to have enabled me to re-enable the option.
Finally (I think!) all the hardware as seen by Linux can be found here:
https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=c9c0294b47
[EDIT] Oh, PS: I've tagged the CPU as having HD620 graphics in my profile but honestly I don't know what it is! Neither Intel Ark, nor Linux refer to it as HD anything, it's 'Mesa UHD CML GT2' according to Linux.
