Help with understanding a bootlog.....

You are right it is an AJA Video driver, I can see that now I have inspected the kexts - contents/info.plist (NTV2Driver)

that video device was binned as it didn't play well in my system - the Blackmagic Tb device is there instead. Just tried the latest EFI - no change. The FL1009 kext doesn't appear to be listed in Hackintool re chipsets on the USB tab

 

[Edhawk]

Ok, so that kext has been removed from the attached EFI.

I don't know which other setting or kext to use for the FL1009 ports. The FL1009 kext that has been added and enabled in the config.plist.

The only other thing that is different is the removal of the Thunderbolt SSDT. But that shouldn't make these ports not work.

You didn't say which card you were using for the USB3 case ports.

hi - its an Inateck KT5001 5 x external USB3 plus connection internally to the case ports.(FL1100 chipset) This was all working before Thunderbolt so Im sure its not connected. Interestingly there is a cable that is now unplugged that went from mb USB3 to the Titan Ridge. Im wondering how that would have worked with the BIOS switched off on USB3.

On another note the Memory config is unhappy despite restrict events , I think there is an alternate kext that also addresses this with this SMBIOS. Prob best to not run before walking eh?

Hi - Went back through some old back ups as I remember mapping all the case ports. Heres a note I saved .Not sure if it helps but here is what I had. I can't remember if this is post the USB 3 card

EH01@1D
HP11 PR11 1d1100000 USB2 Port 01 FRONT
HP12 PR11 1d120000 USB2 Port 02 Front
HP13 PR11 1d130000 USB2 Port 03. Front
HP14 PR11 1d140000 USB2 Port 04. Front
HP17 PR11 1d170000 USB2 Port 07 Rear bottom
PRT1 @ 1d110000 Internal bluetooth adapter BRCM20702
EH02@1A

HP21 PR21 1a@110000 Rear USB2 Port 01
HP22 PR21 1a@120000 Rear USB2 Port 02
HP23 PR21 1a@130000 Rear USB2 Port 03
HP24 PR21 1a@140000 Rear USB2 Port 04
HP25 PR21 1a@150000 Rear USB2 Port 05
HP26 PR21 1a@160000 Rear USB2 Port 06

The following four cover only case FRONT two x USB3 sockets

USBXHCIFL1100
PEX5@1C,5 IOPP
FRONT USB 3.0
USB20XHCI Port 00100000 Port 01
USB20XHCIPort 00200000 Port 02
USB30XHCIPort 00300000 Port 03
USB30XHCIPort@00400000 Port 04

Th following four cover case REAR 2x USB3 sockets

USBXHCIFL1100

PEX6@1C,6 IOPP

USB20XHCIPort @01100000 Port 01
USB20XHCIPort @01200000 Port 02
USB30XHCIPort. @01300000 Port 03
USB30XHCIPort @01400000 Port 04

PEX7@1C,7 covers GENERICUSBXHCI - Not sure about what this covers ?

You shouldn't be using GenericUSBXHCI.kext. This is an obsolete USB3 kext, which was dropped when El Capitan was released and Apple introduced the 15 port USB limit. So check it isn't being loaded from your /L/E or /S/L/E folders.

Inateck KT5001, and it uses the Fresco Logic FL1100 chipset/drivers native to macOS.

The only thing I can think that I haven't included in the /OC/config.plist is a XHCI to XHC rename patch. But when I checked your DSDT.aml, an XHCI/XHC1 device didn't appear in any searches, so I left it out. Could be the cause, might be barking up the wrong tree!

I have attached a revised config.plist, which contains the XHCI to XHC rename patch. See if that helps.

FYI. The Gigabyte GC-TITAN RIDGE has a jumper wire that is used to force the USB controller to always be visible even when no USB devices are connected. USB 2.0 support requires a connection to a USB port that supports USB 2.0 (one USB 2.0 port per Thunderbolt port). The Thunderbolt card's USB connection is a 9-pin to 9-pin cable, which is plugged in to a USB 2.0 motherboard header port, not a USB 3.0 port. So that wouldn't make any difference to your Fresco Logic ports.

Hi @Edhawk - Im sorry this bit is being elusive and taking up your valuable time.....There are a number of patches from the original Clover build that were I think replicated in the original OC.

Tried the config - no change - is it worth clearing Nvram?

Can OC deliver a bootlog from just the most recent boot rather than the method I use that added them?

Just looked at Hackintool - theres there fl1100 controller there now but nothing connected is visible

 

[Edhawk]

OK, that is a bit of a mess but can be sorted, at least the FL1100 controller is now showing.

So you need to Clear all the ports shown. Then you need to Refresh the list of ports.

Any ports that show up on the screen that are obvious duplicates or sections of the USB config that are not used need to be deleted. See the attached screenshot showing which ports I would delete, after a clear and refresh.

looking in the dortania guide I noticed that in "SMBIOSes that do not need the ACPI renames:" is the MacPro 7.1 - could this be the issue?

Hi
Do I perform the deletes in Hackintool?
