[Discussion] A new 10.12.1 beta is out, anything new with IOHID drivers?

[the-braveknight]

Has anyone tried the new build yet? Are the problems with IOHID drivers still there?

Im on the new beta, and the IOHID kexts have returned to normal so FN keys such as brightness and volume does work as usual again!

Do note however, the latest beta breaks Wifi for the BCM4352 (DW1560 in my case) and to enable it you need the following patches in addition to previous ones. Alternatively you can replace the IO8211 kext with a previous version to restore functionality too. Hope this helps!!

Brightness keys are still broken, but volume/mute is ok. F14/F15 still work for brightness. Capslock is still unreliable.

The usual problems persist.

That's really bad... Maybe we must wait for Apple to release Sierra source code...

Some of the problem areas are in code that is not open source.
