Hi guys,
In my HP g6-2305sl I'm having issues with the screen backlight and disabling the discrete graphics card.
For the backlight I tried with this guide https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...ontrol-using-applebacklightfixup-kext.218222/ installing the kext but I can't have it working.
For the discrete GPU, I tried with this https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-disabling-discrete-graphics-in-dual-gpu-laptops.163772/ but in my dsl files I can't find the _OFF method.
I've attached problem reporting files.
Hope that you could help me.
Thanks

You have the GFX0->IGPU patch disabled.
It is a requirement for SSDT-PNLF.aml.
Refer to guide plists:

_OFF is in SSDT-3.
 
You have the GFX0->IGPU patch disabled.
Ok, I enabled it and now under SysPrefs->Displays I have a MacBook instead of a classic Monitor, I've used the patched SSDT-PNLF.aml and the kext but it still doesn't work

You need to describe your problem in detail and attach problem reporting files.
