I need help in making a vanilla SpeedStep to work on my laptop. I have started-up in following the guide which is found here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=181631 The problem is that my system doesn't match or is not…

“Long time. I haven't been making any update since 10.6.8 ... lol. Until a few days back I have been looking at the progresses that you guys have made over Lion and now Mountain Lion. I'm actually planning to move-on to Mountain Lion on the …”

“I'm glad that we have WIFI right out of the box now! But I have a small question for the curious ... do you guys think that it's possible to upgrade the CPU for these K50IN based computers? I'm having the X5DIN, with a P7450 and I want to u…”

“you have an updated version of the sound kext which works after coming back from sleep (it does on mine), the appleps2controller from this thread works also (no sleep issues) and about the keyboard, sorry mate i cannot help you there... do …”

“I'm happy that most of us are getting their K50IN-based notebook to Hack. I'm having 2 issues though, especially about the ApplePS2Controller from Rus(drake). Since I don't know russian and there is Buhgalter who made it available to us. My…”

“I have also just installed 10.6.3, and the 32-bit mode is broken in the graphics part. It works just fine if I disable graphics (not providing any driver whatsoever), but as soon as I put NVEnabler in, then it does not work anylonger. The t…”

“Using 32-bit here. One thing I notice: in 32-bit mode, if you get really jumpy mouse, you just shutdown the computer, and start the Mac right-away. After booting Windows and then restart to go to Hack, it will have the strange mouse behavio…”

“yes, thanks to Buhgalter and the russian crew i used the ApplePS2Controller rus modified and i have a working trackpad after waking from sleep Thanks and Cheers What's up flip360. Could you share your Extra folder with us? I never got sleep…”

“bump, anyone/ Here is how you get the better looking Apple logo at the boot phase. Look at your /Extra/com.apple.boot.plist file. Find a line with Kernel Flags Remove the -v that you see there. That actually means, verbose boot, which shows…”

“Good evening, I had followed the letter of the tutorial, but I always sound that sleet, what to do? Find in this thread the file AsusK50IN.kext and the HDAEnabler.kext . Put them in your /Extra/Extensions/ folder. Then use pfix or Kext Util…”

“For a really long time since I have been using my HackBook, I was not able to run in 32-bit mode, because my system will hang. With the new updated BIOS 221, I am having some luck with the system, because it boots and works, even if I don't…”

“I just noticed an updated BIOS on the ASUS site: it is version 221. I updated mine, and tested whether my Hack would run or not without the DSDT that we've all been playing around in here. To my surprise, it worked fine, and actually run a …”

“Have anyone solution to fix this problem... I don't use NullCPUPowerManagement kext. Are you having a K50IN or X5DIN like mine? If so, then why don't you just try the patched DSDT that are posted in here? Usually, you just get the DSDT from…”

“Now if I can just fix the boot problem I will be finally satisfied for now. What boot problem would that be?”

“OK, so, I played with the DSDT files, and merged the difference. I have manually added all the changes that drade has done on his. That includes mostly everything, except the section in the TMR . Audio: working without HDAEnabler, but still…”

“I also don't get any Keyboard/Touchpad with the patched DSDTs with Audio, Video and HPET (and SMBus). So, I reverted to the older one that I have used. I tried to see the difference between mine and the patched one, but it is too numerous, …”

“I keep having some strange issue with the DVD drive on my system. Sometimes the drive is good, but sometimes, it is not responding properly. I eject the drive from the tray icons, but it takes some long while before it gets open. But the wo…”

“i am without patched DSDT and coolbook is working properly, changing freq, voltage and temperature accordingly Well, it works well when it wants to work, and it really is crazy when it's not working. I mean, it is very very random ... somet…”

“Also, who has Sleep and Deep Sleep fully working? I'm interested to know who ... And last, who has got full DSDT vanilla SpeedStep?”

“Anyone having some strange USB behavior sometimes? When one or more device at boot-time, the console will display something similar to this: "could not get device to turn off after 100 ms"; it's not really that, but something similar. It's …”

“I have started a new thread on patching the DSDT to have full vanilla SpeedStep . CoolBook doesn't work properly for me ... so I started the thread for any inputs on how to fix it: Vanilla SpeedStep in Asus X5DIN/K50IN notebooks”

“My trackpad has stopped working. I reinstalled the VoodooPS2 kext, no go. Possibly stopped working after getting sound installed. Any idea what happened here? Also, make sure that you're using PC EFI v10.5. When using bare Chameleon RC3, I …”

“Oddly, I just noticed, my mac is listed as a Mac Pro, and in system preferences, I have separate options for keyboard and mouse instead of the usual "keyboard & mouse setting" found on macbooks That is very strange ... I recommend you use t…”

“Okay guys, Snow Leopard is running after many tries :-d. I have only 1 question... That Extra folder, where I must place that kexts etc.? I'm totally new with OS X, so... Well, I don't know how you have installed it, but normally, if you ge…”

“Woooowwww! Thanks a lot guys, the sound is now working Big milestone ... huge thanks Clubber_77 , I really appreciate your help man. Now, I'm on to patching the Wifi so that it will be always on. I don't like to use the USB Wifi that I boug…”

“It works fine for me... I have another variants... but I can attach them only tommorow I guess there are lots of variants of the Asus K50IN. Mine is a bit different in some parts, yours is also that way, as well as for flip360. For RGGG, he…”

“My bigger screen is 1600x900, but the pictures are not very clear. It seems that the resolution of the main screen (1366x768) is a bit stretched to fit in the bigger screen, and it doesn't look good at all. I found the solution for this, an…”

“I think that should be possible. You have an option NodesToPatch in the VoodooHDA, which helps you to modify the nodes. I have been looking for documentations about that, but it seems that Slice among other guys are only talking Russian abo…”

“@flip360: I have finished reinstalling my Hack. To my surprise, I didn't need NV Enabler too, the Chameleon's GraphicsEnabler option made the graphics work. I now also get dual monitor. It doesn't look right yet, but I think I'll find a sol…”

“As for the HPET, I think I have already been using a DSDT patch about that. So, I should not require that kext. It's just that the AppleHDA and the ALC662 kext has messed-up my Hack, and I can't get back to a previous state anylonger.”

“Well, I haven't been before, but since I have been messing-up with that AppleHDA, then my system is no longer stable. Actually, I'm nearly giving up on this, because of too many things not working. 1. Sound, which is very important is not w…”

“You would need to get a codec dump from your audio hardware to fix the outputs mapped to the wrong ports. Also you could try using this modded version of VoodooHDA (http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=355) by Slice that lets…”

“I think my Hard Disk is sleeping, and that have never been a cause of kernel panic as far as I know. Actually, it has never paniced, unless I loaded VoodooHDA , unloaded it, and then reloaded it.”

“I've been seeing some patching to the VoodooHDA kext. If you notice, it has NodesToPatch in the Info.plist. But I just can't find anywhere the rules that is used there. In some russian threads, with translation, I can understand some of the…”

“Weird! I have been playing with the ALC622.kext that RGGG has posted. I have not used the DSDT directly, because that would, as flip360 already experienced, cause a KP. I have instead taken the HDEF part that I see in that DSDT, and replace…”

“I have patched also my DSDT, and I'm getting a partial information in the System Profiler about the audio. It properly says the relevant info: speaker and microphone. I use HDAEnabler, but it has some assertion errors when booting. I cannot…”

“Me too, I'm using NVEnabler 64. Now, I'm always running in 32-bit mode, because one of the drivers that I use is only 32-bit mode.”

“I just patched the AirPortAtheros21.kext and I'm getting the same issue as flip360. I guess Apple should fix this driver on the next release. I'm going to stay with the wire for now.”

“Yes ... I did just that, and got 10.6.2. It is recommended from the IRC chat that you use a Combo update instead of the built-in updater on the Apple menu.”

“Mine is just different from yours in CPU, because it is a P7450. But it seems that a lot of things are different, because I have to use DSDT for it to boot, otherwise I get a KP.”

“Just a question: what kind of USB audio do you use? I have a Behringer Master Keyboard, model UMX61. It came with a little device that I can connect to my PC, and then it will be recognized as a sound card on both Windows and Mac. It has RC…”
