First of all, thanks a LOT for helping me out with the Firewire code. Now I got rid of the "FireWire runtime power conservation disabled" message, and the device shows up in Sys Profiler as it should. Great! Seems I overlooked to add the "FWBR" (=Firewire Bridge?) device in between, so that with my first attempt the card was not adressed correctly.
My wired USB Keyboard and mouse both wake the system. You may want to check out the new ACPI files in the zip. I moved the USB2 fix to a separate SSDT as it isn't needed in OSs older than 10.11. OS 10.9-10.10 exhibit USB sleep wake bugs with this USB fix for 10.11.
Ah that explains my problems I had with your newer files (am still on 10.10). So I reverted to the older files and they work great, but also seem to work with my 10.11 test installation. But if I get this right, you actually recommend using your newer files with 10.11? Are there any problems with your old files?
But, if I do
not want to wake my system with keyboard or mouse, do you have any idea how to do it
without adding a clock-id? Think there must be some way, because with your older files I get this exact behavior, without having a clock-id anywhere.
Not sure what you mean by "Also note that I included a fix to correctly display the Apple logo on boot in the GPU section".
Yeah I mean the Logo not showing while the second boot stage, and the progress indicator stuck on the lower left corner. See also

I fixed this not by the way in the linked guide, but by adding this piece of code to the GPU section of the SSDT (in the _DSM method):
Code:
"@2,AAPL,boot-display",
Buffer (One)
{
0x00
},
Seems way easier than the procedure in the guide, so this is a nice addition for me to get a more native experience and to get rid of this glitch. But you must make sure the connector is the one of your monitor, so "@2" does not fit for everyone. Just FYI.
I like to keep everything separate for modularity but you seem to have the right idea if you want to combine all your PCI devices in 1 SSDT.
Yeah I just decided to do it this way, but your approach also has advantages. Might be better in this case, as it is easier for people to follow your guide then.
PS: since you seem to be quite knowledgeable,
maybe you know how to get rid of just another glitch: I have a MAT****A BD-MLT UJ265 Bluray burner (slot loading) which has some problems accepting media. The only way that works most of the time is to open System Profiler beforehand, and select the "disk burning" tab. Then the disc is "magically" accepted. Not a huge problem, but you might know this as well
Again, thanks for your help & support, this is one of the best guides I ever saw!
