Problems with 4530s Xu015UT ACPI or HPET or DSDT?

[blueking]

I have yours now. I will reboot and then let you know when I get the opportunity.

I'll need a clean dsdt.dsl from this laptop if it does work please!

I posted my vanilla DSDT.dsl up thread, but I havent even been able to get it to compile.

A guy on IRC has given me a copy that compiles with iasl, but I dont know what changes may have run through it.

Here's mine.

Can you please try this one out? (Both of you)

Works much better. I can boot with it now and have battery icon again. I've got 1920x1080 so I needed dual-link patch included as well.

Thanks.

 

[blueking]

Ah yes sorry, I removed it from the original one.

But good. Then I'll include that in the future installer.

I used this one, and I still get
Panic: No HPETs available....

From both the one you posted, and the one BigDonkey Posted.


I can boot without DSDT, and I can boot with the DSDT I extracted, which is just the same as booting with DSDT=no

Heres attached a copy of my extract, that a guy on IRC ran through a fixer, and got to compile for me.

When I do a diff, most of the one line diffs look like this:
< Notify (\_SB.PCI0.GFX0, 0x80)
---
> Notify (\_SB.PCI0.IGPU, 0x80)

but Im sure I dont have a dedicated gfx card; I'm not sure if that diff will make much of a differnce.

Another interesting difference are the lines
466c478
< OperationRegion (GNVS, SystemMemory, 0xBCF5C918, 0x019F)
---
> OperationRegion (GNVS, SystemMemory, 0xBCE71918, 0x019F)

There are 6 of these, the data inside them is the same, but that third address is different.

so, I dont know what I am doing with these DSDTs, though I am starting to get the general idea

It appears that my DSDT is operating on things in 16 bits, opposed to 8 bits on yours, nothing in mine has the method B1B2,
sample variables like this:
5946c5943,5944
< BDC, 16,
---
> BDC0, 8,
> BDC1, 8,

I copied and pasted as much as I could from the one you most recently uploaded blueking, into the vanilla one I posted, and I have got airport working!
but theres still a lot of differences, which Im not sure if I should worry about.

Does this device name matter?
12515c12529
< Device (AC)
---
> Device (ADP1)
and thigs of that nature.

Here is an upload of the copy I have made, and a diff file showing the differences

@coplate

I re-read the whole topic. If you still have 10.6.8 installed.
Please use dsdt.aml blueking posted and install NullCPUPowerManagement in /S/L/E
I'm pretty sure it will boot the system correctly.

I'll try that tonight.

I have tried using that in /Extra/Extensions before, without any luck, but, I didn't have the DSDT blueking posted.

to use this, do I need to remove anything in the Apple kext?
