[Guide] Patching LAPTOP DSDT/SSDTs

[favoriti]

Sorry in advance not to have big knowledge on the subject or if my question has already been discussed !

2 files shows me syntax errors when analyzing .dsl :
SSDT-0-sensrhub and SSDT-6-sensrhub - others .dsl shows up warnings/remarks on compile
I try to correct errors under Maciasl but no success (always got new syntax errors when trying to modify the code)...

Is there a clover patch for correcting or another way (is patchmatic help for that ?) ?

And maybe a second question. I need to adjust my DSDT, since I have a dual battery. I cannot however save the changes, because I'm getting compiler errors (untouched). I'm on 6.2a
It would be great, if you could look into it (debug zip is in previous post)

No errors in resulting DSDT.dsl if you disassemble as per post #1 with refs.txt.
Always read carefully.

No need to include those files in ACPI/patched. So why are you attempting to recompile them?

 

[KristFlex]

Your DSDT has an existing _DSM at HDEF/HDAS._DSM.
But you forgot to enable the _DSM->XDSM patch.
As a result, conflicting _DSM in SSDT-HDEF.aml is ignored.

Thank you again! Yes, I've seen that I had this patch already in plist, but forgot to check if it was active or not.
Audio is working now. Even though this is not the right thread, but if someone need it:
for Medion E6424 the working id for AppleALC is 6

Noted thanks !
As I found nothing clear to me by searching the use of SSDT-0-sensrhub and SSDT-6-sensrhub
I was thinking (wrong) it is a good long term practice to analyse/correct/recompile/patch the extracted files showing compile syntax errors

Definitely not. General rule: If there are no functional patches required, don't touch 'em.

Off-topic. Open a separate thread please.

I have some problems decompiling DSDT.aml - Too many parent prefixes.
These comes in as errors in the dsl as well.

Compiling the dsl, I get 2x error on "Object Does not exist (SS1_) " on simple code like this. No errors on SS2 etc.
