[README] Common (some unsolved) Problems in 10.12 Sierra

[vbo]

Just another datapoint to say the modified patches in post #939 worked for me too on 10.12.4 with my haswell laptop. No lag after sleep/login and mini-dp out working with sound.

I actually did the in place update from trusty 10.11.6 to 10.12.4 and everything works fine after doing the fixes recommended in post #1 and pulling some of the patches from RehabMan's u430/config sample repos. As always, thanks to RehabMan and the whole community for the kext dev, patches, and documentation in threads like this one.

Help me, what do I open and edit these patchs. I began to meet lags when login. My Cpu is Haswell.

The laptop in your profile has a guide:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...book-using-clover-uefi-hotpatch-10-11.189416/

It already has the required patches.

Sorry, I already fix this problem.

I have managed to install Sierra on my HP AC-184-TU Laptop with HD5500. I am using rehabman's config.plist for HD5500 and successfully managed to install the OS. After installation I CAN boot into it only under safe mode. Otherwise I get kernel panic when trying to boot with the clover installer USB, as shown on the screen. Attaching my USB EFI folder. Can someone help me?

that has to do with incorrectly set DVMT-prealloc can you change that in your BIOS to 96mb or higher? 64mb may work

My DVMT is 192 MB (checked from windows).

windows is not the best way to check that (it is written in the clover guide)

I am using a patched AppleIntelBDWGraphicsFramebuffer kext and using "inject ig-platform-id" method to get over the stolen memory problem. Is this not supposed to work?

in the guide:
http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...de-booting-os-x-installer-laptops-clover.html
it mentions on how to use the minstolen patch
haven't used it myself as my laptop has the option in the BIOS to change it
