Clevo P950 - Post Install

[RehabMan]

It's just my vendor's 'Clevo Control Center' where you can set the temperatures of when the fans should turn on/ off.

It might be manipulating EC data. You'll need to reverse engineer it.

I see, I should just trial and error with the HWMonitor.app and making an own SSDT. I actually read some thread where you helped somebody with making an quiet-ssdt (like your 04b_FanQuiet from the Probook): https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/fan-speed-control-on-high-sierra.238454 is this about the procedure I have to follow?

One final question though, I cannot change my brightness anymore. I updated every kext, and updated Clover, and followed the guide from https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...rol-using-applebacklightinjector-kext.218222/
I have installed AppleIntelBacklightInjector.kext & SSDT-PNLF in EFI > Clover > ACPI > Patched. Can you take a look at my debug files? Thanks!

You would need to determine what the app does in Windows.
May not be possible.
Certainly will not be easy.
Maybe Linux has an open source version of the same?

So you are saying, don't do it with the SSDT, but reverse engineer the EC data?
I just tried this on Linux: https://github.com/SkyLandTW/clevo-indicator and seems to be working. Now I'm trying to make a Xcode project with the same code for Mac.

You can see the EC offsets are documented in that code:

#define EC_REG_CPU_TEMP 0x07
#define EC_REG_GPU_TEMP 0xCD
#define EC_REG_FAN_DUTY 0xCE
#define EC_REG_FAN_RPMS_HI 0xD0
#define EC_REG_FAN_RPMS_LO 0xD1

 

[Jessers123]

Yup I saw that, so actually I should make that SSDT with the help of that prgoram and the other forum thread?
Alright then I have to look deeper into ACPI!

Hello, can you upload your boot file, I want to install macos on my P950HR, thank you.

I successfully installed High Sierra, now working on the post install procedure.
Currently Wifi, Bluetooth and screen brightness and a custom USBInjectAll.kext + SSDT is working fine. The only problem I have is that sleep is not working and sometimes a high fan noise. I suspect something is wrong with the power management. I'm using the `SSDT-PluginType1` method.

Debug files can be found in the attachments.
Thanks in advance!

Hi, I am trying install 10.13.6 to my laptop, P950 with intel 7700HQ and Nvidia 1070 Max-Q. Unfortunately I've been stacked at position
Still waiting for root device.

You are the only person I found in internet who declared the success on this platform.
Could you please share me your experience, or the EFI documents? Many thanks.

still waiting for root device is a usb issue

make sure to use a usb2.0 drive, also try all port son your laptop

make sure to hav eUSBInjectAll.kext in clover/kexts/other
