Suave icon set + Photoshop + CandyBar :)

Thanks for this amazing tutorial man_on_the_oak!

I follow all the steps letter by letter, but after I reboot with dsdt compiled I and NullCPUPowermanagent.kext deleted, I got a kernel panic like this:

"CPU 0 has no HPET assigned to it"@/SourceCache/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement"

I'm googled but I didn't found any solutions so I ask you

I have the same PC subject for the CPU. It's an P4 T4300, the rest of the specs are the same

Thanks for everything!

ps; I'm sorry for my english; I'm spanish young men xD

either use HPETDevice.kext in Extra/Extensions or you didnt edited your DSDT correctly, try it again its working here properly,

Cheers

It's definitely a problem with DSDT. Show it to me.

edit: @flip360 What happened to the first page? o.O

flip360 you were right! I edited the DSDT and this time it works!

thank you so much! , my notebook it's a little better with OSX xD

thank you too oak_the_man! It won't be possible without your help ;)

Only a little better? ;)

You're welcome, I'm glad you like it!

daaaaaaaaammnnnnnnn :(
thanks for the heads up man_of_the_oak
update: somehow re-edited it LOL

Cheers

feedback & need help
 

hi... oak_the_man, flip360, & ronovar...

i've lion installed on my K40in CPU T4200 @2000 dual core and i've update to 10.7.1.
there are working :
battery - this
display - nvenabler64.kext so display will detect as unkwon but work perfect
reboot,shutdown,lan,usb,keyboard - ronovar extra k70inmac
scrolling - i use reverse scrolling application
card reader - i use oak_the_man kext for 10.6.8 (hehehe... it is only cosmetic)

there are not working :
sleep - i just disable all of the sleep function i don't really need this!
sound - i tried solution from ronovar to use kext k50in & appleHDA with bin patched but it is not work at all
edit work perfect with solution below... :D
trackpad - i tried AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext and ApplePS2Controller.kext but nothing happened, i tried this for trackpad but nothing change..

can u help me out to enable the sound? this is the most important for me because i can use usb mouse to substitute trackpad.
how about voodooHDA for alc662? can i use this kext? Should i delete any kext before i apply voodooHDA?

update : i'm using voodooHDA 10.6.2 then sound driver is detected but the sound is messed up! now i'm try to using usual way to copy k50in, HDA enabler, & appleHDA 10.6.2.. hope work flawlessly.... still incorrect n problem with noise... so i browse & found new next for voodooHDA here

so my sound work perfectly.... :D thx

thanks for any suggestion & solution... CMIIW... i really need correction.
cheers...;):):D

Don't use VoodooHDA, it's a piece of shit if there's an alternative. Get my kexts for audio and apply them - it will work.

As for sleep etc. - create your own DSDT according to my tutorial.

Trackpad - kexts from my pack should work... I am not 100% sure though, I haven't tried it on this laptop, only on MacBook and deleted it the next day :p

i can confirm that 10.7.x was working properly here with sound sleep and trackpad, with the kexts from man_of_the_oak and ronovar, just be sure to have a clean DSDT for your hardware, i switched to 10.6.8, feels more solid,

Cheers

hi!

My atheros wifi can't give me a IP so I can't connect to the internet :S I have try another kext but it doesn't work :S

My WIFI is setup with a WPA2 key; I have another netbook connected to it

Anyone have any ideas? Thank you so much!

i have a WiFi with WPA2 key, connects just fine (but maybe its my switched wifi card)
did you follow the tutorial on the first page of the thread?
do you have generated a clean DSDT with the WLAN fix?
did you repair kext cache and permissions after installing the kext?

What kext? o.O

As far as I know - there is no need to use any kext as long as your DSDT has WLAN fix, I can't check it myself though - I've swapped my Atheros.

there is a kext about Atheros wifi :) but with the WLAN fix there is no need for one you are right,

Cheers

to man_of_the_oak

I have try your steps for twice but I got no luck .. really dont know how to deal with it then..

so would you mind to checking my clean DSDT and please help me to modify it?

I'm so sorry but I really need you :-*

here is the file http://www.4shared.com/file/34xfjtbN/dsdt.html?


Thank you so much

thanks man_of_the_oak... :D my trackpad already working... :D i will use ur tutorial to enable sleep function as well... have a nice week... :p

thanks flip, for ur advise to stay on 10.6.8, i fell there is a lot of incompatible app on 10.7 :D

hi
 

Hi everybody :)

do you test a lion 10.7.2 , it work for you ?

for me, I have a black screen after boot mdr

Thank you for your wonderful explanation :) I've got my dear K50IN to boot into OS X Snow Leopard. Now the problem is with the "sleep" but I don't use it so I don't really care :D

Thank you!

What kind of problem? o.O It should work perfectly as mentioned in my tutorial :)

I'm sorry but there's nothing different about this DSDT. Just follow the steps and you'll succeed, there's no doubt.

Sleep works fine here too

thank you for your advised but would you mind to share your DSDT? I would like to see and try it on my machine, because like i told you before I tried to modify it for twice but got no luck, then it would be better to compare with your file...


thank you again

I tried to install Realtek RTL8187l Wireless USB 2.0. But it seem like not being detected by the system. Try to install driver given by realtek but still does not work. anyone know how to del with this? using 10.6.8:)

here try this: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/lof...t29797-50.html
its for older versions of OS X though...

Cheers

General Step to install 10.6.3 from Windows 7
 

Hi everyone, I hope you can help. I'm currently running Windows 7 with MBR disk and have 1 unallocated partition ready for a Mac installation. Could you help me about general step I need to do to install 10.6.3 without messing up my current configuration :) I'm using it for work so I can't reinstall Windows. I have a 16GB USB drive, a retail image of 10.6.3. What kext should I use and where I can download it. I've read your post on #1 before but now it's replace with something else. My laptop is K40IN with T4200 CPU and 3GB of RAM. Hope someone can help. :)

Hi binhpv, welcome to the thread.
The tutorial on the first page is changed, yes (for better) and you should follow its parts to have a fully working HacBookPro at the end. I am afraid that if your HDD is not GUID (which i dont think it is atm) you should backup your files first and then do a clean install with the HDD reformated to GUID with two partitions, one for OSX on for Win7. I have forgot to add the USB Install method to the first page (which is done now) ;)
If you have problems address them here,

Cheers

Thanks for your help Flip :). What you've added is really what i'm looking for. Now I can create a USB drive to install. But where's the BootCD? The instruction from man_of_the_oak is good but it is for post-install configuration. What I need is how to install it. I've read and look around this topic and other forum but there too much information and I don't know where to start and how to start correctly. I hope you can state some basic step I will need to follow to get the right direction. :D
As I said before, I'm using the laptop for work with full of software, document, project and a lot lot configuration I've made to installed software. It's really frustrating to reformat the hard drive. I can backup data file but can't sure that Windows backup image will restore correctly after reformat. So anyway I can install Leopard to MBR partition?
Sorry if my English is so bad. I'm Vietnamese student :D

i have added the bootCD install link to the first page (thanks for reminding me :) ) you need google translate though, BUT with a succsesfull creation of the DSDT i would recommend any of the USB install methods (i am using the first one). As for the HDD i am sorry to say that the MBR method exists but for full compatibility better to reformat the drive to GUID partition table. No need, your English is fine :)

Cheers

So Windows 7 32bit support install to GPT drive? Are there any problem doing that? Maybe I will spend my weekend to rebuild my lappy :) And have you tested if the BootCD work with 10.6.3 or not? I saw in your link that it was built for 10.6.
I figure that I'll need to follow this:
- Boot the BootCD and reformat the HDD to GUID, install Windows 7.
- Boot again to install MAC OS X 10.6.3.
- follow man_of_the_oak's guide to upgrade to 10.6.8.
I think I still missing one thing is where's the kexts that I will need after install 10.6.3 (ok, man_of_the_oak only show how to upgrade to 10.6.8, but I need to install the OS before I can upgrade it :D)

Yes windows installs to GPT, i use Win7 64bit, the kexts for 10.6.x from man_of_the_oak archive, you just have to build your own DSDT. Also be sure to use kext wizard to repair kext cache after you install the kexts in S/L/E or E/E.

Cheers

I would recommend removing a link to Tony-the-thief's tutorial regarding dual-boot. It's a piece of shit as almost everything on his website...

If I have some time I may create a better tutorial but there isn't much to care about.

Simply install Mac OS X (partition the hdd including a FAT partition for Windows - later to be reformated to NTFS using Windows installer) - only remember not to add/remove any partitions using Windows installer - otherwise your partition table may get damaged! After that - install Chameleon using boot0hfs method and that's it - fully working dual boot setup is here (got it on my Asus too).

+ to that user who wants to install the system on MBR paritition table - I'd rather repartition the whole drive. MBR installs aren't the best ones, I've heard of some problems sometimes + in case of Asus, you can use your Windows serial number to activate the system without need of using recovery partition. Only get a clean (not pre-activated like some shit on torrents...) ISO of your version of Windows (or edit some files to get multi-version edition), install it and activate using your previous serial number. It's completely legal (if you have a license you can get the system from anywhere) and works - you only need to use phone activation, otherwise it won't. Good luck!

Hye there,
i followed all the steps to edit dsdt, but the sleep still don't work. when i click sleep. the screen went off but the power LED still on and when i press any key, nothing happen until i need to long press the power button to turn off my laptop.

The second most crucial problem is, i can't connect to my college Wifi. it using the Wpa2 enterprise. Every time i try to connect it end up with Self Assigned IP. Anybody every experienced this before?

Thankz!

Done :)
Hey man_of_the_oak, how u been :)

Did you use my kexts?

Regarding Wifi - atm I know that the DSDT fix is incorrect but I need some people who would offer some time for testing purposes.

@flip360

Thanks!
Well, I'm fine although VERY VERY busy these days - started my IT education at the University and (un)fortunately it's one of the best here, so I have a lot of work and I mean A LOT :P So please keep that in mind when I reply slowly ;)

So how can I connect to wifi network? My 10.6.8 up and running now but no wifi and therefore it's useless :(

There would be two/three possible solutions:
1. swap the wifi card with another one (Broadcom chipset that works OOTB) i have the Dell1490
2. try and connect to a WPA2Personal, works here
3. try the AtherosFix.kext for the AR8925

Cheers

Ok I installed a kext from kexts.com and wifi is working now. Just waiting for tomorrow to connect to my University's network. Hope it'll work cause the network is WPA2 Enterprise. Now I've 10.6.8 with audio, wifi, DSDT repaired and compiled in /Extra. But close the lid cause the system to hang. And sometime the system panic at boot. Turn it off and turn on again fixed. Another problem is although system recognized and installed software from my 3G USB stick, it just keep saying no signal from mobile network while I can connect with Windows 7. :(

Thinking about Lion and will try to figure how to install it on my K40IN.

yes, i use all and i follow every single steps in the tutorial u posted.

Check the LID fix in the DSDT, mine is working properly, Lion is still buggy and not working as good as 10.6.8 on our notebooks, hope man_of_the_oak updates us in the meantime. As for the Windows side, sorry, cannot help you there :)

Cheers

AppleHDA 2.0.5 from 10.6.8 successfully patched
 

Hello everyone!...:)

I have successfully patched the new original AppleHDA.kext from 10.6.8 update and is now vanilla...all is working flamwlessly...no errors at boot in console, no poping sounds, just clear sound that works very very nice...all is 100% working int speakers, int mic, ext mic, ext speakers, jack switch when you plug external device...

This file is BIN patched for ALC662 and added in xml 12 and platform xml pinconfigs thats are dumped from ubuntu live cd.

So use it on K70IO and K50 Asus laptops.

I im using DSDT patch for HDEF and HDAC and this patched AppleHDA.kext.

Post your results...:)

Here is link....and it will be nice to put this on front page...:)

ty , a try :)

Hi, I am new on the forum. Hi, man_of_the_oak, thanks for the tutorial, working great for me, except wifi. I can help you testing.

Wrote it already in reply to your PM, but... :P

I don't really think that editing AppleHDA is what fixed popping. Did you have the problem before? If not - patching AppleHDA isn't the fix. The only way to fix it is to edit IOAudioFamily kext or add a small code to DSDT (works only when HP isn't connected, I still have to figure out how to make it work... although I don't have a problem with popping myself either, ALC662 is a bizarre audio codec - some people even claim to have this kind of popping under Windows o.O), where you can find code regarding PowerState. It's a problem with audio going to 'sleep' after certain amount of time without playing music etc. and it's not connected to AppleHDA itself but IOAudioFamily. At least from what I've seen in it's source code.

+ Your AppleHDA patch is a bit messy. You've should removed some parts of Layouts that are not in use. What's more - your pinconfigs aren't really in Mac OS X style - it works but it wouldn't work in some cases. In general - when creating LegacyHDA/editing AppleHDA - you shouldn't use rough pinconfig from Ubuntu but edit it in some parts. Feel free to look at my LegacyHDA from the tutorial, it may give you the idea of what I mean. Don't take it offensive, I simply know how hard it's to get into using AppleHDA to enable audio, since there aren't many sources of knowledge unfortunately and I want to help you in understanding it as I've spend a long time testing all this stuff.

@aliquot
When I have some free time I will send you a PM! Thanks a lot!

So anyone get the sound to the speaker? I used a kext from kexts.com (http://www.kexts.com/downloads.php?d...id=1629&page=2) and got great sound but only from headphone. No sound to speaker. Anyone have a working kext can post it here?

Look at my tutorial in the first post...

Ok this is where I got some misunderstanding. I think complied DSDT will have .aml extension, not dsl. The dsl is for the source file, right? One more thing is can I use LegacyHDA_ALC662-v.1 , and replace AppleAHCIPort, AppleHDA, IOAudioFamily if I don't have DSDT? Cause I currently don't have Ubuntu to extract it.

Wooo, thanks a lot for finding this, I wanted to add "not .dsl" and it ended up like this, lol! Will fix it as soon as I am not browsing the board using an iPhone. Regarding the rest - then you have to wait until you are able to extract you DSDT since you have to use it anyway...

OMG. Sleep is still not working. Plus If i am really lucky, then i will able to connect to my college wifi(WPA2Enterprise)

man_of_the_oak do you think is it because of kexts or dsdt.
Here i attached my DSDT if you don't mind to check it.

http://www.mediafire.com/?r0jrr9w3susr3lx

Is it because i don't do a clean instal. that means i only follow your steps for the dsdt editing part only.?

thanz!:)

For sleep, try removing the "Method (_PRW ... " from ALL the USB/EUSB/USBE Devices and see if that helps ...

Entries look like this ...
