Using OpenCore EFI on my Xiaomi Air 13" Skylake

[bergui45]

The OpenCore EFI provided by Feartech is OK for booting my Skylake laptop but there is an issue with the screen a bit too dark and the F5 BTN to enhance Brightness did nothing...
So probably i need another .kext in order to get the normal brightness i'm accustomed with EFI Clover...

also need SSDT-PNLF.aml that comes with whatevergreen.kext

and sometime ALS0.aml may be required as well

Hello,
I found SSDT-PNLF.dsl instead of SSDT-PNLF.aml int the Whatevergreen.kext?

yes, you will need to compile it using macIASL

 

[bergui45]

OK i used MacIASL drag 'n drop SSDT-PNLF.dsl on it and then hit the compile BTN...
The result was no error...
But i cannot get the modified SSDT-PNLF.aml?

[bergui45]
