Lenovo Z710 - i7 4700MQ - Mavericks 10.9.1 - DSDT/SSDT

[RehabMan]

Koval78, many thanks for the suggestion, I think our machines are identical in all hardware except harddrive so I was hopeful but the files didn't work. I'm using Chimera 3.01 from multibeast, is that wrong?

Not wrong, but there are many advantages to Clover.

Struggling with this one, I'm probably not meant to do this advanced computing...
Got a lot of files from ubuntu (where everything including battery and brightness works perfectly.. changed name to *.aml but doing the command iasl -da *.aml stops with lot's of error messages and does not produce any other files..

Read post #22 carefully. It says gather all DSDT and SSDT files from Linux. It does not say gather all AML files. If you have all files there, you cannot use 'iasl -da *.aml'... you must be more selective: 'iasl -da DSDT.aml SSDT*.aml'.

Hackintosh requires careful reading and acute attention to details.

understand, but slightly impatient as my eyes are burning..
identified the file to be ssdt4.dsl
next step:
Apply: "Rename GFX0 to IGPU" (to both DSDT and the SSDT that has your GFX0 device)
Apply: "Brightness Fix (Haswell)" to the file (SSDT or DSDT) with GFX0 device definition.
they are txt files, how can they be applied, tried maciasl but do not quite understand what I should do next..

THINK I got to the next step, fun learning, but I had 3 compilation error, how to handle these?

No idea what you're doing wrong without posting the files. Note that none of my patches use DTGP. And it appears that perhaps you applied the IGPU rename patch twice.

 

[metex]

Also have a distinct feeling I did it twice, new try, no warnings but cant find compiled output.
Attaching log, files before and after

I applied the rename+brighteness haswell patch without issue to the SSDT you uploaded.

Also the .dsl you provide compiles without error.

What is the issue?

As far as saving, read the README.

 

[metex]

Saving went ok, think my file is ok then but no brightness slider showing up..
Is there anything else I can upload that might help find the error, I think there might be many in the whole setup since I really don't understand what I'm doing..
