Hi,
I've got a Dell Inspiron 15 5548 that I've been working on getting up and running on El Capitan. It's been a lot harder than I thought as googling around I'd found about 4 or 5 different 5548 success stories and some files that were supposed to work, but for whatever reason (bios, different hardware config, etc) they don't. So, I kind of started from scratch with my DSDT and SSDTs and have been figuring out patching with some success, but a few roadblocks.
Here's where I am:
Borrowed CFG.plist and Kexts from working builds
Modified DVMT pre-alloc in BIOS
Dumped ACPI files with Clover F4
Ran ssdtPRgen.sh and installed SSDT
Using MacIasl & RehabMan's awesome repository I patched the DSDT & SSDT-6, and got working battery and sound
Currently the two items that I'm trying to cross off my list are HDMI Audio (nice), and Backlight Control (fairly critical).
I have RehabMan's IntelBaclight.kext installed, edited SSDT-6 which had GFX0 and B0D3 in it with the above two patches, but when I add either or both of the two patches to my DSDT I get a freeze and no boot. I'm not sure where I've gone wrong, and have spent 2 days solid trying to narrow down the problem without much luck. I'd appreciate an extra set of eyes.
I repartitioned and haven't reinstalled Windows, so I can't run CPU-Z at the moment to get motherboard #. I'm attaching IOREG, my Clover folder and kextstat output.
Thanks for any help, I'm really not sure where to go from here...
