I downloaded the acpica_20121220_bin.zip from your #233 post http://www.tonymacx86.com/hp-proboo...s-4330-4430-4530-4730-patches-updated-24.html
Now I have to unzip it and rename the iasl file to iasl5 (in the bin64 folder).
Once renamed, I have to copy and paste it in Maciasl 210.app/Contents/MacOS and that's it, right?
Thanks!
So it's not so "safe" using it?
Thanks!
You can do that, but really there is no reason to. Not, unless you want to help Intel test their latest iasl.
It works, so it is safe. I've been testing this for more than a month.
I'm testing my new fresh clean install and I noticed that now the fan is very noisy and it starts with no reason.. for example I just stay in the desktop screen without doing anything and it starts.
In the DSDT patching procedure I selected the "All (standard screens, quiet fan)" section.
Suggestions, please?
Thanks!
#in terminal
bdmesg | grep -y dsdt
Make sure you are using the DSDT that you think you are... Look at:
Code:#in terminal bdmesg | grep -y dsdt
Then compare your dsdt size as seen by Chimera (above) vs. the size of the one you patched.
This is the result:
Read HFS+ file: [hd(0,2)/Extra/DSDT.aml] 145914 bytes.
Read HFS+ file: [hd(0,2)/Extra/DSDT.aml] 145914 bytes.
FADT: Using custom DSDT!
FADT: Using custom DSDT!
And I checked, is the same size!
I patched it following your new guide step by step.
Is there a way to check that everything is gone ok?
Thanks!
You could look at the DSDT (in MaciASL) and see if you see the fan control stuff... (search for FTAB).
Also, you could look at your temperatures to see if it makes sense for the fan to be running (above 50C).
When you do a fresh install, the system is busy for a while (Spotlight indexing mostly).
Run Activity Monitor to see what the computer is doing...
CPU temperature is around 40 degrees and the fan is at 4200 rpm.
Is that ok?
Thanks!
