[solved] Cant disable discrete 940MX

[cagalindo]

Hi guys, whats up?
So, im having some trouble disabling my 940MX, and its consuming a lot of my battery life.
So, I tried @RehabMan tutorial, but it did not work.
The patches just dont match with my DSDT or SSDTS.. cant find anything there (only _REV).

Thats the only thing left o finish my Hackin (i guess).
Thanks!

Your ACPI configuration is wrong.
Read guide:

I did just like in the guide.
Using F4 in Clover screen. After that, I used the command:

"cd "to directory where you placed all SSDT/DSDT"
iasl -da -dl DSDT.aml SSDT*.aml"

The result is in this post.
Thanks.

What is the issue?

Can't discrete using your guide. Just can't find the things you mentioned in your guide.

Can't discrete using your guide. Just can't find the things you mentioned in your guide.

_OFF is in SSDT-18. Path is _SB.PCI0.RP01.PEGP._OFF.
It calls HGOF. HGOF is in SSDT17.
No EC references in either.
The related _INI is in SSDT-16.

Your ACPI configuration is wrong.
As per guide, when you have patched SSDTs in ACPI/patched, DropOem must be set true.
You have DropOem=false.
Also, SortedOrder is wrong. And you have the wrong files in ACPI/patched.
Based on ACPI/origin, ACPI/patched should contain:
DSDT.aml
SSDT.aml (ssdtPRgen.sh)
SSDT-0.aml
SSDT-1.aml
SSDT-2.aml
SSDT-3.aml
SSDT-11.aml
SSDT-12.aml
SSDT-13.aml
SSDT-14.aml
SSDT-15.aml
SSDT-16.aml
SSDT-17.aml
SSDT-18.aml

SortedOrder must have the same set of SSDTs. And DropOem=false.
