Disable nvidia card to save battery

[RehabMan]

Now it boots, but how can I see if the graphics card is turned off?

You can see it (lack of) in System Information. Also can be seen from ioreg: http://www.tonymacx86.com/audio/58368-guide-how-make-copy-ioreg.html

Ok, so it doesn't work. I can see a nVidia PCI device (without loaded kexts) in System Information.
Maybe I did something wrong. How can I help you to help me?

Here you have it.

 

[RehabMan]

Here you have it.

There are only two SSDTs loaded in ioreg. One is your integrated Intel device. The other is CPU related (should be eliminated). There is no patched SSDT representing patched SSDT5.

So yeah, you should not expect it to work.

Ok... How can I fix the issue?

Well, you need to place the patched SSDT in /Extra where it will load.

Also, you should implement power management. All this has been covered previously in this thread.

This is from your bootlog:

Read HFS+ file: [hd(1,2)/Extra/SSDT.aml] 12444 bytes.
Table /Extra/SSDT.aml read and stored at: 260b000
ACPI Table not found: SSDT-1.aml

The power management is implemented.
oh, wait... Maybe i have understood the problem

 

[RehabMan]

The power management is implemented.

It is not. X86PlatformPlugin is not loaded due to no Apple specific SSDT for CPU (ssdtPRgen.sh).

Really? I thought that I had implemented it. How can I do it?
