Talking Gigabyte ιδιοκτήτες ενωθείτε !!

Με βάση τις τελευταίες πληροφορίες ΚΑΙ δοκιμές από μένα!

Έχει κατασκευαστεί από τον Cartri, το Mac Bios, CUSTOM BIOS, για συγκεκριμένα μοντέλα της Gigabyte που προσθέτουν τόσα πολλά πράγματα ώστε να είμαι στο σημείο να έχω:

sleep/wake, ήχο, usb1+2, drives sata/ide, και άλλα καλούδια..

ΧΩΡΙΣ DSDT!!!!!

Custom BIOS Allows for Mac on your Hack without DSDT Patches


Many of you may remember that confusing time period back in Leopard days, where everyone was worried about patching their DSDT in time for the 10.5.6 update. The fear began when it was discovered that beta builds of 10.5.6 required this DSDT patch for the OS to boot. Fortunately, by the time 10.5.6 came out for everyone on software update, the requirement was no longer in place to have a DSDT.

But at this point, many people had gone ahead and patched their DSDT’s anyways to be proactive. DSDT patching popularity grew when people realized the benefits. Thanks to some noob-friendly software that automated the process of patching some key DSDT elements, such as HPET, many people were able to experience the advantages of having a DSDT. As time went on, new tools were released which allowed us to add even more fixes to our computers, making our Mac experience even better.

So onto the meat and potatoes of this article; having the benefits of DSDT, without DSDT. Since the hackint0sh community started, Gigabyte motherboards have gained the reputation of being very flexible. They often have compatible hardware which works with vanilla kexts. Even better, is the flexibility of the BIOS. With stock BIOS, the Gigabyte boards offer many options that OEM BIOS from, for example, Dell, do not offer. This allows us users to tweak settings to maximize compatibility with various operating systems, including, Mac OS X.

So what does all this mean regarding not needing to use a patched DSDT? Well, the Gigabyte BIOS’ can be modified to include un-official modifications much more easily than say, Dell BIOS’. This means that common DSDT patches can be included directly in a custom BIOS. Once flashed, these custom BIOS’ allow supported Gigabyte motherboards to boot Mac OS X with no patched DSDT. On top of this, the modified BIOS’ also allow us to use less custom kexts.

Well, insanelymac user Cartri has done just that. Basically, his custom BIOS’ allows for many things to work out of the box on Gigabyte motherboards, which normally would require manual DSDT patching. Here’s what he has accomplished so far:
  • No need for DSDT.aml
  • Mac Display image instead of gigabyte’s one (splash screen)
  • Bios Setup sounds in sound boxes(not loud)
  • Native PowerManagement correctly loaded
  • Shutdown Fix (still long shutdown time, arround 10 to 20 seconds but no need for kexts)
  • CMOS-reset bug fix for Snow Leo
  • USB 1.1 and 2.0 seen as internal with sleep capability
  • Native SMBus loading
  • Full Sleep and Wake capability.
  • Full AHCI hotplug capability
  • HDEF Audio (eliminates HDAEnabler)

Cartri also points out that other OS’ like Windows and Linux work perfectly with this modified BIOS as well.

Right now, most BIOS’ are in the creation/alpha testing stage, so check out Cartri’s blog and his insanelymac post to follow the project for your Gigabyte board. If you appreciate Cartri’s hard work, consider donating to him so he can further his project and extend it to more motherboards!

Κοίτα έχω την UD3LR και είναι και γαμώ τις mobo τώρα δείτε τις πράσσινες με βάση το chart που έχει και το νέο πλέον firmware 0.7m και διαλέξτε συγκριτικά ποια mobo σας κάνει καλύτερα σε περιεχόμενο ή τιμή!
