Has anyone gotten this to work properly? Or more precisely, has anyone gotten Audio to work?
have you some news about lion on XPS L702X ? I have a L702X and I want to know if sound, wifi and gpu nvidia gt 550M work with lion ?
I have been running Lion and now ML for over a year on my XPS L702x - this is a Sandy Bridge machine with the GT550M 1080p 3D screen. The 3D screen is critical for nVidia function as the Optimus feature is turned off and the Intel HD3000 video is not reachable. No SD card and USB 3.0 is not reliable; uses the Bluetooth from original Intel card, added WiFi via an Apple Extreme Atheros PCI-e, sound and microphone, battery, SSD Trim support, accelerated video support via Lion/ML compatible kexts, some edited, some not. I am running 3 HD's; 2 SSDs, 256GB for Mac OS X and Windows 7 dual-boot and a 512 GB for Data and a 750GB 7200 RPM Standard HD (in the DVD tray) for on the fly back-up of all the partitions. You cannot boot from the DVD tray drive. I have two memory slots with 8GB each.
I have ordered a Dell 17R SE 7720 w/3D screen and will install ML on in it in a week or so. There is an old thread about my LION install experiences which contains a lot of good background info but the newer installs appear to be much more friendly. Depending on how much time I have I may write it up.
So i copied my current everything to the new parition but when i try to boot the screen says boot0: error. And i cant get anywhere else from thereThe issue you have is related to the boot process - no audio until we are booting from a post-install boot setup. We can either finish your install which will result in audio OR you can obtain another USB boot stick, rebuild the installation using your final DSDT, final kexts and /Extra which will allow your audio to work.
Of course, there is another potential issue and we should probably address that now. We need to insure your audio is the same; just because you have an L702x does not mean your audio is the same. So we should gather some info from your Windows install just to not waste a lot of time. Run AiDA64 reports, all hardware, txt output and put it on your install stick so we can xfer it to the Mac side. AIDA64 will also extract your DSDT and SSDT's although SSDT's are not necessary for our installation.
