I want also to thank everybody at this topic and especially bkribbbs who start this project and it give me an answer in the question "which laptop to buy?"

PS Does the tapping on the trackpad working ok at your machines? to me sometimes is clicking with a simple touch and sometimes I hit it so hard and make my fingers pain and is not clicking at all.

No, tapping works fine for me, not sure whats happening to you. You have it enabled in trackpad in system preferences right?

Alright.

Also, does anyone have the card reader working? And what about PCIe?

EDIT: Just added a thanks section in the second post, please see it.

I am now editing the guide for installation with pack v2.3 which supports 10.7.0 and 10.7.1. It adds DSDT patching, and a new boot loader and smbios.plist which will enable FaceTime.

EDIT2: Also, just added a need to know section for updating from one pack to another, as well as updating the update section. Just adding the pack and then done!

Can a few people read it and see what they think? Flaws anywhere?

EDIT4: I can't upload on kexts.com, so I am now using dropbox.

EDIT5: Links added. v2.3 released! It adds the FaceTime fix and DSDT. Read the update section to use it.

If anyone deserve appreciation. It is you. I really appreciate your dedications and determination for making 4530s as good as macbook.

I hope in future we get fully functional trackpad and bluetooth.

Re: Install Guide/Discussion Thread for HP Probook 4530s

Thanks. But I couldn't do it by myself.

Bluetooth I think might happen, as well as hdmi audio. But I don't think trackpads are getting much love.

Has anyone actually made a FaceTime call?

EDIT: People that used my latest pack or new smbios.plist to make FaceTime work, see if you can actually make a call and have it connect.

No they are not working. The PCIe bus is been recognized from the system, there are three slotss avaliable, but there are no drivers installed. (what we can put on them?)

The card reader is not been seeing by the system profiler at all. The point is what type is our card reader. For sure is not USB but it could be PCI, PCMCI, or ATA. I try to run the lspci but it return me an error even if I run it from the OSXTOOLS it returns the same error.
I already tried various kexts that I found, but with no result. Actually one of them made my installation unboot able and I had to take my HDD out and connected to another Mac in order to get rid of that kext. But first We need to know what type is our reader and if there is any MacBook with the same type of reader so you can get a kext from there to test it.
I do not know if there is exist such a MacBook because the most of them they are using USB card readers.
