El capitan compatibility

[Majkwin]

Hey guys
El capitan is slowly rolling out. Has someone tried installing it in ours 573g? Does everything work just as it did on Yosemite? How was your impression?

[Kaijun]

haven't even tried. i'm just waiting for the official release 😃

[wilsoxu]

Hey guys,

I'm running El Capitan public beta 3 and I'm not having any issues with Wifi, sleeping, shutting down, sound, trackpad, keyboard.
I installed the yosemite IO80211Family.kext to get my wifi working because I don't have a supported card (AR4357)
2 problems I have though are:
a) When i wake up from sleep, my computer is really slow (CPU problem I think not running at full speed?)
b) Plugging in HDMI auto crashes/reboots the system.

[Kaijun]

@wilsoxu Thanks for sharing!
a) have you ever checked the CPU speed exactly? get the HWSensor and check the exact info of cpu speed or speedstepping.
b) no idea :( google it or open a thread in the forums :)

[wilsoxu]

Hey @Kaijun

a) CPU multiplier is stuck at x8.0... I've had this problem before on Yosemite but it's fixable with SSDT edits i think..
b) Yeah I haven't seen anyone with this problem on the forums yet, but maybe it's because the Fake PCIID haven't been updated for El Capitan? :P

[Kaijun]

@wilsoxu if the speedstepping works totally fine before the laptop goes asleep, then there should be no problem with the SSDT, but it's probably related the DSDT, the part of "PTS" exactly. but even though, i also have no idea how to fix it... i don't know, we may just wait for the release version, or wait until some kind of guru posted the patches of DSDT for solving the problem.

[wilsoxu]

@Kaijun
Speedstepping is not working when i turn on my computer... hmmm, do you know why that is?

edit: Speedstepping isn't working when i use my own dsdt, but when I use yours, I have speedstepping when i turn on my computer... hmm I'll take a look

edit2: i've re-dumped my DSDT from Clover and it seems to work now! :) I'll try to figure out HDMI problem now...

[wilsoxu]

@Kaijun
Hey! So updating to El Capitan 10.11 Public Beta 5 actually fixed my HDMI problem... I've got HDMI fully working now

[Majkwin]

Hdmi audio also?

@Majkwin I can't seem to get HDMI audio working. I'm using VoodooHDA and it shows up as an option but it doesn't give me option to change the volume...

heres what i mean:

[Majkwin]

We have officially GM of El capitan, what means we should install it on our Acers :D What's working and what's not for now on EC?

[Majkwin]

Has someone tried installing El Capitan? I have problems with booting into installation. After few seconds computer restarts...

[wilsoxu]

@Majkwin you probably need to use the latest version of clover

[Majkwin]

Yes, I have v.3270 and disabled SIP and while booting installer I'm getting

"panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff88295273a6): "zone init: know_suballoc failed"0/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/xnu/xnu-3247.1.99/osfnk/kern/zalloc.c:2199
"
for 0.2s and immediately computer restarts

[Majkwin]

Ok, I managed to install El Capitan. The only thing that isn't working right now is audio - I have to spend more time with it to find out what to change.

[ApteryxK]

@Majkwin I have the exact same error, I am on a Z97N-WIFI with I5 4690 and GTX 960.
How did you fix it ?
Thank you :)

[Majkwin]

It's a ram problem. You have to set memory in config.plist manually

Hi.
Before I start, I must thank Majkwin and Kaijun for their DSDT edits that made the process SO MUCH easier for me.
I use my laptop [i7 4500U, 8 GB RAM and GT 750 4GB(Disabled)] for school, and am planning to update to El Capitan as I need to use Xcode 7.2 Beta.
Is it safe, as of now, to do so?

[Majkwin]

Before updating:

• set ram in config,plist (check about this mac if yosemite displays values
  correctly)
• update clover to newest version
• disable SIP
• also you need to add one more patch for audio

1. Fine. System Information can't detect the number and size of RAM modules, so will edit config.plist.
2. Will update Clover to 2.3k r3320.
3. Will do.
4. Can you attach the patch?

[Majkwin]

I will upload my config.plist for El Capitan later today. You have 8gigs of
ram on two bones?

Thank you. No, a single 8 gig module.

[Kaijun]

thanks majkwin! Recently i have no time to maintain these stuffs! 'Cause i
have many projects running on the environment that i already configured on
Yosemite. So i would try 10.11 after that all my projects are finished. If
you know how GitHub works, you can fork this repository and add your stuffs
into this repo, then make a pull request. I will merge your commit into
this repo so that all others will benifit :)

Any updates, Majkwin? I am currently unable to boot the second stage of the installation using Clover 2.3k r3320.

[Majkwin]

http://www.speedyshare.com/xS8B8/config.plist

Sorry for uoloading it this way. For You to know:

• SMBIOS values are changed to not share my unique rom and mlb
• SIP is disabled
• ram is defined for 2x4gb
• additional audio patch is included

For working audio, you can not install modified applehda.kext - Only inject DummyHDA

[Ace73]

Majkwin, sorry for the late reply. I am unable to boot into both the El Capitan setup and the existing install. This is what I am faced with, instead of the Apple logo, while booting.

[beautifulsole]

I'm also having difficulty booting into the El Capitan installer.

I'm using the latest Clover, installed for EFI booting only (which worked for Yosemite), changed the config.plist to disable SIP, and installed the newest FakeSMC, Aptio2Fixdrv drivers.

Any fix?

Edit: Ace has the same problem as me, and we have similar laptops: the i7-4500u variant. Perhaps it's something to do with the DSDT and SSDTs? In a similar vein, I have noticed that my CPU never scales up to 3.0 GHz using the DDST and SSDTs posted in this repo, even though my processor is capable of doing so. Perhaps I need to compile my own DDST and SSDTs.

[Majkwin]

Enable verbose mode and check what kind of error You have - then google it,
or tonymac it :D My problem was related with RAM, so I set it manually in
config.plist (2x4GB) that I provided You with. After that I could boot into
installer without any problems.

I did enable verbose. When I get the above "NO" error, it's the Osxaptio thing, which is fixed using the Aptio2Fix driver. When it's fixed, it just barely passes the aptio2fix thing, then flashes a warning on the screen for a split second before rebooting. Haven't been able to catch the error with a camera or otherwise.

I'll try the RAM fix, how do you set that? Either manually or using clover configurator is fine.

[notly]

@Majkwin Can you share the clover & kexts for the El capitan ? Tks very much

[Ace73]

@Majkwin, I am not able to boot the installer. Using verbose mode is thus futile. I have a single 8 GB module, but the config.plist attached in the master file worked perfectly. Do I need to modify the config.plist given here?

[striimer]

@michaelspeed
hi, added some screenshots from my machine
as you can see there are some native usb 2.0 devices under the usb 2.0 tree, like builtin webcam, also bt/wifi card bluetooth usb recognised, usb receiver is external mouse receiver
onto the usb 3.0 connected usb 3.0 flash pen with os x install flash stick (yes, usb 3.0 flash)
to get usb right working you need to fulfil 4 requirements, all previously described:
EHCx to EH0x patching
usb prw 06 patch from Rehabman repository
install usbinjectall kext
xmux kext
then your usb starts work correct

did you resolve previously asked brightness control ? i've tested both contrrollers intelbacklight and acpibacklight kexts from Rehabman repository, brightness control works with both, if everything installed right, you should see only hd4400 under graphics in SysProfiler, if you have example 2 graphic cards, (hd4400 + nvidia also) then your brightness never works), for brightness control nvidia should be completely disabled in dsdt.

[Silveryard]

So I observed something in the last days (I don´t use reboot that much so I didn´t notice before):
Restart is some kind of roulette. Sometimes it just reboots and sometimes it shuts itself down.
Regular Shutdown seems to always fail.

Brightness Controll works for me in the Settings panel but not with keyboard keys. Thats something to be resolved as you currently need 2 monitors to turn your integrated back on (if the value is too low so it is off).

[striimer]

@Silveryard
Very strange, my v5-573g never shutted down so far with El Capitan, with Yosemite it worked.
After clean install, even the reboot was very long, took around minute, when started boot up again, after resolving usb and other driver issues, reboot works nice and fast, unfortunately shutdown is not reachable so far.
Brightness issue was more-or-less addressed to @michaelspeed, who asked about this month ago...
But mapping the brightness physical keys is not big problem, i did it once in my Lenovo, followed the Rehabman guide. Needs just one dsdt patch and everything starts work. Busy times right now to resolve such comfort thing....
are you using evoreboot for the shutdown ? or how you did managed to shutdown it at least sometimes ? as it's already progress. Do you have also I5 model ?
which patches you used for dsdt ?

[Silveryard]

Reboot was fast for me too at first. Now it seams to have slowed down. Also it seems to depend on a few other factors I cant say which ones. But it seams reasonably fast so I don´t mind.

I encountered the shutdown on reboot issue only twice. The other times it rebooted correctly.
I do not have made any special changes regarding to shutdown/reboot.

You can see my kexts and dsdt on the el-capitan-10.11---i5-4200U-TouchScreen branch. Brief overview over my dsdt changes:

• Fix PARSEOP_STORE/MMTB/HRPR Error (RehabMan)
• USB3_PRW 0x6D (instant wake) (RehabMan)
• Rename EHC1 -> EH01 / EHC2 -> EH02

These should only affect usb and nothing else

[tomyhn]

help me

i'm use acer v5-573g-i7-4500u.

[notly]

hello, i just find a way to solve it;

1. Be sure SIP is off
2. using OsxAptioFix2Drv instead of OsxAptioFixDrv
3. if you have more than one Memory, update it in config.plist

i will upload a new Clover.zip for you later. 🎱

[notly]

you can download the clover with https://github.com/V5OSX/clover/archive/master.zip

[tomyhn]

thanks. i usefull.

[Kaijun]

Hi guys! I'm back! Finally i get some time to play with hackintosh again 😌 . I just installed El captain and update new version of Clover.

Check the repo!

Later i will try making new DSDT/SSDTs from BIOS 2.30, i don't know if i still remember the procedure though.

[notly]

cheers!!!
I think maybe we can make a org repo for v5
clover, drivers and others ...

So what would you think ?

[Silveryard]

So wouln´t it be great to integrate both branches into master? Don´t know how well DSDT/SSDTs merge and everyone would get the fixes all hardwares can profit from without doing work twice

[Kaijun]

@llsf yeah! Sure, and different V5 models will have its own repo then.

@Silveryard you mean merging DSDT/SSDTs in other two branches into master?
I think i should write some kind of tutorials for those who has different v5-573g model and want to modify his DSDT/SSDTs. So far i still don't know if all models sharing a similar or even same DSDT/SSDTs, or they're totally different.

[Silveryard]

You can see my dsdt changes a few posts above this.
Also i have included a few kexts like ethernet. They should work for others as well.

The only major differences may be in the clover configuration. I dont have El Cap installed currently so I can´t tell. Missing brightness keys, wrong keyboard config and shutdown/sleep and touch issues are the biggest problems for me

[Kaijun]

@Silveryard @lsf
Do you guys have Sleep issue? Before i installed RTL8111, the laptop wake up immediately after sleep with Wake reason: HDEF, after installing RTL8188, it seems that the laptop can't be woken up after sleep.
How is yours?

[notly]

Wake up issue is not found, Maybe it was caused by 'hard drive sleep'?
but there is a shutdown issue.

[Kaijun]

@llsf it seems that all shutdown/restart/sleep issues are related to the new USB3 mechanism of El Capitan. I'm still trying to fix this shit.

[Kaijun]

I tried the @striimer 's method to fix USB, patch EHC1->EH01 through Clover, two kexts made by Rehabman. Then USB seems to work properly.

And Shutdown issue seems to be solved (before fix of usb, the laptop can't be shut down when usb plugged... ). And my Shutdown Fix (check here) in DSDT is still same as the former one.

So i'm still confusing why you all are having the shutdown problem? Or is it the reason that i'm using the 2.30 Bios with DSDT extracted from 2.30 Bios?

[Kaijun]

Check the new Release 18.6.2016, It's totally new DSDT/SSDTs extracted from BIOS 2.30.

Besides, i also wrote a tutorial how i process these files. Check here.

It seems that all things work correctly as before. Shutdown issue after long time running still need to be tested. Don't know if the Intel ME solution mentioned here #6 (comment) helps

[Silveryard]

Did anyone get the SD Card reader to work?
AFAIK it didn´t recognize any cards last time I tried it.

Also: Where can I see all connected Devices? The Touchscreen seems to get recognized as a single Button mouse.
But as I saw with my graphics tablet, OS X is capable of multitouch inputs (and it does this very well). So my next step would be to either make the Touchscreen work correctly or disable it completely.

[Kaijun]

@Silveryard
I have no SD Card so i couldn't even test it...
and with Touchscreen, you may try this? http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304487-i2c-hid-touchscreens-trackpads-and-more/

[Kaijun]

Multitouching doesn't seem to work properly though with this driver

[Kaijun]

@Silveryard have you ever tried System Information.app? will it give any results of your connected Touchscreen? I speculate that the touchscreen would probably be recognised as USB like the camera right?
So basically you can't disable it in DSDT, or you could actually, but you should disable the whole USB bus...
So an approach is: plug off the touchscreen controller from your motherboard... 😈

[Silveryard]

Thanks I will try those things.

Multitouch doesn´t have to work. Its a nice to have but no must have.
I just found out that OSX seems to support a kind of multitouch as I have a graphics tablet that allows multitouch input next to pen input. And then you can like in iOS switch to the desktop with 4 fingers, slide between virtual desktops with 3 fingers etc.
But it´s a huge problem that the screen generates random input when closing the lid.

The most hardcore way would be to plug off the controller yeah...

[Kaijun]

@Silveryard if your touchpad vendor is synaptics and u r using VoodooPS2, then the brightness keys are already fixed. Check the newest release.

Fn+Left / Right are working now 🎉

[ghost]

Hi,
Do you have 3-finges gesture working?(I mean scrolling the desktops, mission control)
Because it was present before and on EL Capitan doesn't work for me

Also do you have video bug with multiple apples(system loading)?
