not working... i hav tried cpus=2 ,,, 4
nothing working
dsdtse
in dsdtse application the fix of cpus=1 is writen in the following way
CPU ALIAS FIX. This is maybe the easiest fix of all DSDT fixes, simply use the code browser using the CPU option and remove all the lines that say "alias" Example: BEFORE: Scope (_PR) { Processor (P001, 0x01, 0x00000810, 0x06) {} Processor (P002, 0x02, 0x00000000, 0x00) {} Alias (P002, CPU2) Processor (P003, 0x03, 0x00000000, 0x00) {}…
but in my case cpu menue in dsdt file is writen in the following way
Scope (_PR)
{
Processor (CPU0, 0x01, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
Processor (CPU1, 0x02, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
Processor (CPU2, 0x03, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
Processor (CPU3, 0x04, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
}
plz help how can i fix it
@IanxxxDo you have "Execute Disable Function" in your bios if so put it to enabled
no i hav not this function in my bios… only c6 states of processer , virtual technology, always fan on
@IanxxxNot really got any other ideas, I would try playing around, maybe try something like below. I noticed that your cpu started numbering from 1 where all others I have seen start at 0, don't know if this will make a difference or not. Scope (_PR) { Processor (CPU0, 0x00, 0x00000410, 0x06) {} Processor (CPU1, 0x01, 0x00000410, 0x06) {} }…
got panic on startup... also not working cpus=1 or =2 with this dsdt
@yazz2020To get both cores working and get past the kp you need a patched kernel.
thx alot... working very nice for me
now i hav only issue mobility 4650... all other problems has been solved
thx again

WIFI - intel wifi link 1000 bgn
EHTERNET - realtek pc
could you please tell me which distobution you used and which setting you choose?
i've tried over 20 instalations without success. i don't care the 1 or 2 cpus issue, i want just to get something work.

If you leave your original dsdt in place and call the new one something like TestDSDT.aml
you can specify DSDT=TestDSDT.aml at boot
Therefore you can play around until you find something that works.
What happens exactly when you just try to boot without giving CPUS= ?
If its your mouse jumping around, sudden lags, etc, try VoodooTSCSync. Some bioses (mine) don't give OSX the information it needs to synchronize the cores.
To get both cores working and get past the kp you need a patched kernel.
@yazz2020To get both cores working and get past the kp you need a patched kernel.
which kernel did you use?
I have the same machine as of Yours. Please assist in installing snow on it.
Atleast some directions.
Thankfull.
