Master Chief Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 ok so is this project still alive? would like to know the status of this project. thanks. What is it that you looking for? Edit: I think that the latest Chameleon modifications are the hot new thing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnzoFX Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Anyone have the shutdown fix code handy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridgeline Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 For shutdown you need this: OperationRegion (PMRS, SystemIO, 0x0430, 0x1) Field (PMRS, ByteAcc, NoLock, Preserve) { , 4, SLPE, 1 } and this in method PTS If (LEqual (Arg0, 0x05)) { Store (Zero, SLPE) Sleep(0x10) } /edit Address 0x430 is PMBASE+30h if someone tries to use this on something other than a Gigabyte board Was on page 49..... On a side note I was able to change to either iMac7,1 or MacPro3,1 and get a full range of speedstep working and my geekbench score is back where it should be.....

Chaca Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 What is it that you looking for? Edit: I think that the latest Chameleon modifications are the hot new thing now. Greetings Master Chief. I've been following your excellent work for a while now without questions. I have the GA-EP45-UD3L working perfectly with vanilla speedstep but I'm getting ready to upgrade my C2D E6750 with a C2Q Q8400 cpu. I'm getting ready to swap but can't find a recent DSDT speedstep section for the Q8400. Can you give me some advise on where to find a recent speedstep section for this CPU? Thanks in advance!

Chaca Hi Chaca, Shouldn't be too difficult since both CPU's have a [stock] clock speed of 2.66GHz. The most obvious change is that you are going to need four instead of two processor blocks in your DSDT. And booting with your current _PSS data won't hurt, but you will have to update it yes. I however can't help you with this, but the P-State calculator would be step one – to obtain the required values. And I presume that the Q8400 has fewer P-States, but you'll figure that out soon enough. You might also want to change your _CST object also since the Q8400 supports not only C1E but also C3E and C4E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anibalin Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Was on page 49..... On a side note I was able to change to either iMac7,1 or MacPro3,1 and get a full range of speedstep working and my geekbench score is back where it should be..... Thanks everyone Why Is it necessary to choose or an imac7,1 or a MacPro3,1 ? My box is detected as imac 8,1. Do that means speedstep is not working correctly? Apple supports only two models for that? Sorry if my question its a bit goofy. Just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridgeline Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Well in my case it was the speed step would only engage my bottom two multiplier causing the computer to not run As efficiently I added a smbios to my extras folder to inject as the imac7,1 or Macpro3,1 in order to get my full range I am guessing you do not have a smbios in your extra folder and that is why you show the chameleon default of iMac 8,1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(yes, Im using cham. withour smbios). So those two models are the supported ones to have all the speedstep range? Mileage may vary depending on which processor you have. I guess imac for core2duos and below and macpro for quads (and newer icore's). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mammoth Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Hello everyone, OK, for all intense and purposes, lets just consider me a DSDT noob. I have read many of the posts in this tread to get a general idea of what's going on, but it is a bit beyond me (put mildly). My board is a GA-EP45T-DS3R (see sig). Based on knowledge I have gained from various places I have been able to do a bit of modding to create a "working" DSDT for my machine. I would upload my .DSL and .AML files, but when ever I try I get the following error message: "Upload failed. You are not permitted to upload this type of file". I've been an InsanelyMac member for quite a long time, so I don't know why I can't upload files. There is probably a good reason I suppose. Anyway, my question is, is there a "guide" somewhere that has compiled, in one place, all the known fixes that I could use to apply to my board? BlackOSX has created some incredibly awesome guides that are so clear and easy to follow, I'm wondering if there is something similar for DSDT. My goal is to create as complete as possible of a DSDT file (of course) based on the most current BIOS for my board (F4c BETA). I don't mind doing the work, I just need to know what all I need to focus on in order to do this - a kind of "laundry" list of everything I need to change. THANK YOU ALL very much!

rents Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Hello Gigabyte users, I have a couple of questions regarding the DSDT patching, and I believe the active people in this thread can help me out (as I’m a complete noob in this field, but learning fast). If it’s a tough thing to explain, I would be really grateful for pointing me to some links where I can find the needed information. First of all, my specs are as follows: Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P35-S3G GPU: Galaxy GeForce 7600 GS (PCIe) Processor: Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5200 OS: OSX Leopard 10.5.8 - For the installation I have used Retail 10.5.4 Leopard with the boot132 method and Chameleon Extra folder; currently updated to 10.5.8; DSDT built with the GUI DSDT Patcher from ~PCWiz. Currently I have experienced a problem which suddenly came out, or I have never noticed it before (I doubt it) - my keyboard Microsoft Wireless Laser 6000 v2.0, started to type itself strange combinations, including turning the Calculator.app on. I thought it’s due to drained battery and replaced it with an ordinary PS/2 (using a PS/2 fix) for the night, until I buy some new batteries. Unfortunately, the battery wasn’t the problem and it continued with the strange input every couple of minutes, which made it completely useless. After a couple of days, I borrowed a nice DSLR camera from a friend, and for my surprise when I plugged the SD Card adapter into the USB slot it turned on for a sec, and then I got the “Your hardware was improperly turned off” or something similar. It seemed that the computer thinks that I have taken out the USB Adapter, when I actually haven’t touched it at all. Since then, I decided to read a little bit for the DSDT as I have had only taken a quick look on the thread, and I thought this could fix my problem. It actually did. I used the latest posted DSDT (for GA-EP35-DS3L) in the first post of the thread. What changed: - I have perfectly working USB ports (keyboard’s working again, memory sticks and SD adaptor working fine, too) - When I sleep the computer, It turns on with a mouse click (never happened before) - I have quite a few more spinning beach balls, especially in Safari and Photoshop CS3. Actually PS works horribly slow. I was thinking of getting my DSDT fixed properly for two reasons, - I want to get my system properly working and I’m thinking of upgrading to Snow Leopard next month. Things I want to fix in the DSDT: - Processor - GPU - Remove the lines that are not needed (or leave them if it’s not a problem) Please give me a hand on finding a way to edit the info for the Processor and GPU and also to get rid of the unneeded kexts. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geiman Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Probably the best way to do this is to simply read through the thread from page 1 and follow what everyone did. Thats what I just finished doing not long ago to overhaul my DSDT. It takes a quite some time, but its worth it. The quickest way is going to be helping yourself, and the best way is to just start reading. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeza Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 What does this code do? Can I remove it?I would be grateful for any help. Thanks Quick answer: Device Mem declares your memory resources to the OSPM. According to page 355 of ACPIspec40, this device is only required if you need to dynamically add or subtract memory while system is in use. It seems that the BIOS maps the memory appropriately on boot. How it conveys this to OSX I dont know. However, in my dsdt under device PCI0.EXPL I have a memory declaration. I have searched for info for this device but haven't been able to find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leslieking Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 @keeza thanks! I noticed that other DSDT files do not have Device (MEM). I think is safe to remove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzywasaduck2 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 iSoprano - just wanted to thank you for the dsdt.aml files you posted. Your pre-GFX card DSDT is working a dream for me. Sleep has been a major issue for me, but this has sorted it. Can't tell you how happy I am - many many thanks!!!! If I wanted to improve further to tailor to my specific board (P35C-DS3R) is there anything you would recommend? I don't use the onboard sound and have a core 2 duo cpu (as in sig) Once again.... Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
