X541UAK - DSDT patching

[Euro321]

Hi,

I wanted to patch the DSDT of my ASUS X541UAK to fix the battery indicator, brightness, touchpad and keyboard. The thing is that I extracted the DSDT using Clover (pressing F4) then from resulting files I used iasl51 per Rehabman guide to decompile the files. I get some errors during the decompile... then I patched using MacIASL but I got at least 5-6 syntax errors which couldn't be fixed by the patches nor by me.

The touchpad seems the hardest to patch because it's an elantech 1200 for which I did find a kext and some DSDT but I couldn't apply them.

Attached you'll find some files for debugging:

Thanks a lot !

Okay, I solved all the problems by compiling the latest version of MacIASL from Github. Now, I am downloading Xcode to compile VoodooGPIO because the pin hex is about 6d which is greater than 2f sooo let's see if the touchpad will work or not.

hey, Euro321, I have the Asus X541UAK as well... I would really appreciate if you share your clover config file with me and this community... which MacOS version have you managed to get working properly with your work?
Thanks a lot in advanced!
