Just working through install now. Trying to use the latest Clover (v2.4k r4722) but the following drivers indicated as required by
@Sniki are missing:
AppleImageLoader-64
AppleUISupport-64
I've checked under FileVault2 menu and they arent there either.
EDIT: I proceeded without the 2 above items and everything seems to be working so far
. Sleep, HDMI+Sound, VGA.
I think those 2 drivers might be specific to FileVault2 and I'm not using encryption.
Only thing I noticed which seems off is About this Mac is reporting my memory as 16GB, when it should be 12GB. Not sure if this is going to be an issue when the memory starts getting full?
Also these laptops have 2 batteries, I presume that macOS only has the capacity to report the status of 1 so the DSDT has been configured to report the removable battery?
Tomorrow at work I'll have the chance to plug it into the dock. My dock has about 4 USB devices connected as well as DVI and VGA monitors. Is this likely to be an issue?
Thanks for the great work so far by everyone on this thread
EDIT2: Just tried with my dock. I have 2 monitors connected to it, VGA + DVI. When I connect to the dock the VGA + DVI monitors are recognised as 1 display, mirroring the same thing. If I remove the VGA cable from dock and connect to the internal VGA port it isn't recognised and stays black. If I reconnect the VGA to the dock and then disconnect the DVI from the dock and connect it via a miniDP-DVI adapter to the internal miniDP port then everything works as expected.
EDIT3: Some issues I've found:
1) When the display goes to sleep (on power with dock connected) the computer restarts then has a kernel panic. This has been worked around by telling it never to sleep the display when plugged in.
2) There is a lot of distortion and screen flickering with DVI monitor connected via the miniDP to DVI adapter. However the display is perfect when connected to the DVI port on the dock. This means I can only run 1 external display at the moment (as DVI+VGA are mirrored), so if there is a fix to recognise dock DVI and VGA as independent displays that would be a great help.
3) The range on my bluetooth headphones seems to have gone down to about 30cm. Anything more and it breaks up. Wifi seems to be working fine though. When I connected the new wireless card I crossed wires over so the black and white arrows corresponded to the old card. Not sure if there are separate antennas for wifi and bluetooth?
4) Plugged in wired headphones, they are detected but just white noise and distortion.
