[Guide] Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro El Capitan using Clover UEFI

[cfb44]

is there not an option for File/Save As on your GHEX taskbar? i just followed the steps listed on a new drive (Ubuntu 14.04) and I have the option to edit and save the file

This is an update to allow people to save the file /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/SCUShowHiddenPage8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c after making the modificationwith Ghex as described in the preinstallation notes.
before entering the ghex command. use " sudo" chattr -i /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/SCUShowHiddenPage8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c ". That will allow the modification to be saved.

Yes I did, Before, I could not save the file from ghex. Afterward, it worked like a charm, have access to the advanced menu. Changed the video memory param to 96 M. I could not succeed in my ultimate goal of getting an intel 8265 replacement for the 7260 AC to be recognized. I have not heard of anyone who has tried to use that card. I have been leery off flashing a new bios, what takes the white list out, because I did not find a current bios with that mod. What are people currently doing?

intel 8265 card will not work. I am using a lenovo Broadcom card, with the whitelist removed from the bios (requested from bios-mods.com (link on page 1)

Looks to be the same card I am using - you should be good

Yes that actually worked perfectly. Thank you again for finding the info out! I post this on the bios-mod thread as well.

Everything is perfect except that almost always backlight is off when laptop is woken up from sleep. Is there any solution?

 

[cfb44]

not having that issue, so thinking maybe you missed something in the guide. do you have to hit a key to activate the backlight? assuming this is the screen backlight, and not the keyboard...

I have to increase the screen brightness using the keyboard (Fn+Home).
