Thank you RehabMan for everything! Graphics card disabled. (Sorted out)
grep -l Method.*_OFF *.dsl
grep -l Method.*_INI *.dsl
grep -l Method.*_ON *.dsl
DSDT.dsl
SSDT-4.dsl
However, on DSDT, and SSDT-4, that patch is greyed out.Note that this example is complex and not all laptops will have the same configuration. For most, the _INI and _OFF associated with the discrete device are in the same SSDT. In that case it is not necessary to use the External declaration. You can use the "Call _OFF from _INI (SSDT)" patch directly. Some even have it in DSDT (again you can use the patch directly). And not all _OFF methods access the EC, so the movement of the EC related code to _REG is not needed.
It is also possible that the EC related code is more than one line. All such code should be moved to _REG.
into method label _INI parent_label \_SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP insert
\_SB.PCI0.RP01.PXSX
I have checked,
For all, output is same,Code:grep -l Method.*_OFF *.dsl grep -l Method.*_INI *.dsl grep -l Method.*_ON *.dsl
That puts me in both categories mentioned in "Note", and as per my understanding, all I have to do now is use "Call _OFF from _INI (SSDT)" patch from your repo on MaciASL.Code:DSDT.dsl SSDT-4.dsl
However, on DSDT, and SSDT-4, that patch is greyed out.
In DSDT, "Disable from _REG (DSDT)" is apply-able, but I have not applied it yet.
What should I do? also do I need to edit patches from your repo before applying by changing BIOS Device name, as in your patches they arebut in my device they areCode:into method label _INI parent_label \_SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP insert
Code:\_SB.PCI0.RP01.PXSX
I tried my best to keep this reply detailed yet small as I could. Thank you for your patience and time Mr. RehabMan!
Edit: Adding those DASL files. Just in case.
into method label _INI parent_label \_SB.PCI0.RP01.PXSX insert
begin
//added to turn nvidia/radeon off\n
_OFF()\n
end;
how do I know if dedicated Nvidia is disabled or not?
Hi. I have successfully disabled the Nvidia optimus card in my laptop, and it no longer shows at System Information > Graphics/Displays. However, the fan is going crazy now, spinning at full speed even the temperature is very low. Can I have any clues please? I am attaching the debug info and the patched ACPI files here. Thank you.
I have Asus x550jx I7-4720 Wıth Nvidia 950 and hd4600 boot wıth clover UEFI. I just could not dısable optımus could you guys please have a look
Start over with proper plist:

Patch only the files that need patches (eg. don't place files that don't need patching in ACPI/patched), as per post #1.
