New VoodooPS2Controller, Keyboard, Trackpad

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hi Rehabman,

I have a Sony S serial NB with ALPS touchpad and I'm using VoodooPS2Controller-ALPS.kext(ver 1.8.9) for driving the touchpad. The touchpad can be recognized in system Preferences panel and works well. If I want to do some custom key remapping, I add some codes in the default section since there's no profile for Sony NB. But the keyboard will get stuck(no response) when the following codes are added to the Default section.

If I add the same codes to the same Default section(see VoodooPS2Controller.kext:version 1.8.15), the keys remapping are working but since this version of VoodooPS2Controller doesn't support ALPS so the touchpad can't be recognized in system Preferences panel. Did I make the wrong way to add codes to VoodooPS2Controller.kext?

code added:

<key>Custom ADB Map</key>
<string>3c=4a;Remap Mute</string>
<string>3d=49;Remap Volume Down</string>
<string>3e=48;Remap Volume Up</string>
<string>3f=6b;Remap Brightness Down</string>
string>40=71;Remap Brightness Up</string>

I don't support the ALPS version (it is not my code). I also will not support old code (1.8.9 is old).

You should check that your kernel cache is building correctly.

Code:
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

Please note that you're mapping Fxx keys, not the correct keys for volume/brightness/etc.

Thanks for advice. After rebuilding kernel cache, the keyboard get working again with volume/brightness Fn key.
Yes, I'm mapping Fn keys for mute/volume/brightness control. These Fn keys are used in Sony Vaio NB.
 
I'm trying to install VoodooPS2Controller in El Capitan, but I couldn't found AppleACPIPS2Nub.kex or ApplePS2Controller.kext in /System/Library/Extensions. I've tried following the next steps but the keyboard neither the trackpad worked.

If you never installed them, you won't find them.

Also post output of:
Code:
sudo kextcache -i /
 
As I can't even install OS without using my keyboard I can't use ioreg.

Use USB keyboard/mouse. Reply when you can provide the requested data.
 
hi, i have installed my dell e6510 with el capitan. I have added the voodooPS2Controller kext to my clover kext directory. My Keyboard is working fine, but my trackpad is not reacting.

I have notices the following entry in my boot.log:

Hello,first thank you for your great work, I'm new to OS X and my probook crash and restart every time I touch the trackpad, the crash report is mostly about IO and voodooPS2 extension
