Several problems

[kartagis]

Hi,
I've got several problems like the title says. Please bear with me as I couldn't decide if I should post a separate thread for each. Anyway:

• Internet connection problem: I've got a AR-9485 which I got working thanks to a patched IO80211.kext. My problem is, connection often drops. Not the WiFi, but the internet. I can only re-connect by disconnnecting from and reconnecting tp the WiFi. This started happening after I upgraded to High Sierra.
• Shutdown: I shut down the laptop, but it reboots after a second or two. I checked "Fix Shutdown" in config.plist but this hasn't been working since I upgraded to High Sierra.
• HDMI: HDMI video works, but not audio. I tried to patch the DSDT, but I got errors when I hit "Compile".

Should I post separately for each of these issues?

Regards,

EDIT: My problems are with the Fujitsu.

Your shutdown problem may be fixed by the XHC.PMEE fix. See ACPI patching guide/repo:

When I hit Compile after patching DSDT, I get the below errors, like I said before

EDIT: I tried to apply the fix you suggested in https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-help-me-fix-dsdt-error.229025/, but there is such line.

EDIT-2: I cloned your iasl repository.

I used that guide.

I used that guide.

But failed to attach any PR files...

No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.164990/
Use the gen_debug.sh tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.

Please see attached files. I hope these are sufficient.

Please see attached files. I hope these are sufficient.

I disassembled your files (from ACPI/origin) as per guide with refs.txt:
iasl -da -dl -fe refs.txt DSDT.aml SSDT*.aml

Then opened DSDT.dsl in MaciASL, then clicked Compile.
Result: no errors.

See details in the guide:

If I open the DSDT.dsl in MaciASL and hit Compile directly, I have 1 error. However, if I apply a patch then hit Compile, I have 100 errors.

No errors with my instructions and correct version of iasl and MaciASL (must set ACPI 6.2a in Preferences).

However, if I apply a patch then hit Compile, I have 100 errors.

If a patch creates errors, the problem is in the patch itself.
