Right But how can I creating a display override file for the VGA monitor?

You will need to read up on display override files... Google should help you.

Hello there
At the end of the system opening, system up time nanonescond error.
I'm trying to build on an hp 9470m with a 1600x900 i7-3687U processor. I'm using config.plist, which is for 9470m.
macOs 10.12.6

I share the report file in the attachment

Thank you

You did not follow the guide.
Read post #1 and complete all post-install tasks.

Hi, i hava an elitebook 8470p, i follow your guide and all ok but wifi card not recognized

my wifi card is a dw 1515

I put AirportBrcmFixup.kext in system/library/extensions and not wifi

I put AirportBrcmFixup.kext in clover kext/other and still not wifi

I do a fresh install

how can i use the fix? thanks


EDIT

I found a solution on Internet

• On high sierra (preferably on the latest release), go to System > Library > Extensions > IO80211Familly.kext > contents > Plugins

• copy Atheros40xxxxx kext and put it in L/E of Mojave install

• fix and rebuild caches : sudo chown -R root:wheel /L*/E*; sudo chmod -R 755 /L*/E*; sudo kextcache -i /

• Reboot and see if it works.

Thanks for your fantastic guide RehabMan

I will be updating the guide to only recommend Broadcom WiFi, no Atheros.

I have not updated the guide yet.

Usage is available by running the script:

NUC6i7KYK:probook.git rehabman$ ./install_acpi.sh
Usage: ./install_acpi.sh [model] [fanpref]
Use ./install_acpi.sh help for a listing of supported models.
fanpref is default to READ (other: Q, RM, ORIG, GRAP)

Another question: In Intel Power Gadget why do I have a peak of 3.00 GHz instead of 3.20 GHz ? I used the beta branch of PikerAlpha's script without any options. Should I contact him ?

I have the Intel Core i5 3230M

//Sourceforge Clover has that graphical bug

You're trying to use the applealc branch (AppleALC.kext is installed). But you're using a config.plist from prior to Mojave support being added, and you're not using config.plist from the applealc branch.

You have two choices:
- switch to current master branch, delete AppleALC.kext from /L/E, follow all post #1 post-install instructions
- switch to current applealc branch, follow all post #1 post-install instructions, install AppleALC.kext attached to post #1

hello
i have seen that if you switch to applealc branch
install_downloads.sh puts the AppleALC.kext to /L/E but that AppleALC.kext is version 1.3.2 and one that you attached to thread is version 1.3.3d1.


now if i try to install AppleALC.kext attached to the thread all kext installers (kext wizard, kext utility, kextbeast) will install the AppleALC.kext to S/L/E and not /L/E. And thus the kext which is installed by install_downloads.sh remains version 1.3.2, and version 1.3.3d1 is installed in S/L/E if you install'it with a kext installer.

So my question : Why did you attached AppleALC 1.3.3d1 to the thread and did not put in applealc branch?
Thank you


edit : if i kextstat AppleALC the output is :
kextstat | grep -y AppleALC

22 0 0xffffff7f813f9000 0xd3000 0xd3000 as.vit9696.AppleALC (1.3.3d1) 41C19EB8-C2A2-3C8A-BC7E-EFDAE322C2AE <19 12 7 5 4 3 2 1>

but if i right click on AppleALC.kext located in /L/E and click on Info > it gives me version 1.3.2

sound works nevertheless.

Hey,

I noticed another issue with my HP ProBook 4540s.
When using external monitor connected through HDMI and going to lock screen (using menu) - computer freezes after some time (i can only see black window with mouse cursor but keyboard/usb keyboard and usb mouse not working). Notebook lid is closed when using external monitor. I don't know if same issue will appear without using external monitor (i'll try later).

pmset -g assertions


Edit: i can confirm that without external monitor lock screen works fine ! So, there is a bug related to external monitor/hdmi.
Also i'll try different scenario later - external monitor connected but lid opened (because now i leave lid closed when enter to lock screen)

Top turbo states not available unless you're running only a single core (as per Intel spec).
Most of the time, macOS/OS X is using both cores.
