What do you think of a nice Folder Icon when the Backup Clover is done? 

some one propose a different style of folder? 

 

Or folder blue like Origin Big Sur ?

 

Its look like this

Hi. I am still learning about DSDT.
So, I'm sorry if I misunderstood or got it wrong.

DSDT.aml in "EFI I7-9750H \ EFI \ CLOVER \ ACPI \ patched" looks different from dortania's Coffeelake, but does it perform the same function?

https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/config.plist/coffee-lake.html#acpi

I'm sorry if the my idea is wrong.

My patched DSDT has the SSDT in it so I don’t need to use and SSDT’s. Power management was working but when I get home I’ll boot and check ioreg. SMCLightSensor is used to dim screen when I unplug power. Without it it doesn’t dim and been working fine. Nothing in my config has changed since reverting back to clover except updating clover versions and kexts.

My vote is for blue icon.

Finally, Apple So imac14.2 support. I can boot without switching to imacpro1.1. Now it works great.

New update for many versions of apple mac OS 11.1 (20C5048l).

if I understand what you're asking for, you're referring to the double icon in Clover's GUI at boot. Just add name assigned to big sur in
config.plist --> GUI --> Hide Volumes
for example I called it BUG-SUR, added to the hide list and now I only have one entry

 

Thanks  I don't talk about hidden entry. Since Big Sur 11.0.1 Release and on Big Sur 11.1 Beta, the icon os_bigsur is showing as os_mac

Most of the problems I think. Icon will be in the main system. It is not thought to exist in the preboot system. To not display icons correctly As long as we are still booting the preboot system. Icon will not display properly.

Clover take icon based on version number. If it is wrong then it is a bug.

Not related but DataHubDxe.efi is not needed anymore, I think. Anyone can confirm ?

 

DataHubDxe is used for HWSensors project and some other applications and methods.

But yes, you can live without this.

@PG7 @MICKHAEL and other who did the same : fixing kext loading problem by putting some kext in plugins directory of other kext must be a temporary solution. We can fix that in Clover, I'm sure, even if we hard code for the time being.

Please, do not share over the internet your modified kext, because if you do, we'll start to have problem with people getting kexts without knowing there is unrelated plugins. So again do not share zip of these kext. Instead, let's fix that. The problem is that I asked more than one time to send us the needed order and I got response like "I put them in plugins so that's fine".

Sorry to be ranting here, but NO, that's not fine as a solution. It's fine as a workaround. Please, people who got this problem : open an issue on github, let's fix this and go back to original version of your kexts.

 

Why am I saying this : Do you realize how much time is taken by trying to help people ? All this time is less development time. And if we start having kext with random plugins inside, I'll have a lot of people sending me their debug.log... So please...

@Slice the problem of icons exists since Big Sur 11.0.1 Release, and remains with Big Sur 11.1 Beta. Screenshot attached.

Apple brought back support for iMac14,2?

I think it should be right. Because from beta 11.0 to 11.1.20C5048 K. Can not access the installer. It says Mac-27ADBB7B4CEE8E61 is not supported, turn it off immediately. Up to 11.1.20C5048l successfully reached the installation page.
You said it should be right or not.

Your problem is most likely caused by the video card is not compatible or not.

 

You need to correct it on your own or have @ MaLd0n .. do it. Which is beyond my capabilities

edit..Which works like my air port Add it by yourself Because it is an external card

I fake the code myself, for example "pci168c, 2b" I fake it as "pci168c, 2a" works with external kext.

@naiclub, @iCanaro. Someone shared with me the attached kext that if loaded solves the Big Sur issue with the ASMedia 2142 based USB 3.1 controller. It was tested in a X299 build and in mine and it worked in the sense that the USB 3.1 drive I connect is recognized. Thanks a lot to all for the efforts and time spent trying to help me with this.  Credit to @apfelnico

I see it's a specific injector for ASmedia 2142, if it solved, great, very good

@naiclub, I would love to but I’m aware of the limitations I have in the SSD and enclosure I’m using which are SATA based. Later on I would buy something better, but at least now I can make system backups in Big Sur in the way I was in Catalina.

@iCanaro. Thanks a lot for your previous feedback. I tested it booting Big Sur through both Clover and OpenCore with success.

clover r5126

 

I come here to post two problems that I encounter and can be solved (at least I think)

 

- I use an Atheros ar9285 Wifi and then I got the kext here

 

- I tested it a lot and I even managed to get it to work, but it is incomprehensible to know why it works one hour and then it may not work!

 

- I tested with OpenCore and with FUnciona all the time! and that's until I can get it to work on Clover

 

- did some tests and my result is the order of loading the kext by Clover
if we manage to apply a correct order the Wifi works Normal with Clover

 

- I have the same problem with a touchpad kext for ALPS ps2 pro Dell
in OpenCore it loads and works normal, in Clover it happens the same as with the Wifi kext (in previous versions of macOS it works without problems)

 

- I got a debug and a preboot where everything is working with Clover and another where NAO works
for me the order of loading the kext is the problem

 

- I leave the debugs for you to analyze and certainly advise me the indicated way to do it

 

- I tried to install the kext with Chris Droplet in L / E but it doesn't work

 

 since already Thanks to all and good weekend

preboot-funciona o touchpad com a boa kext.log

debug-funciona o touchpad com a boa kext.log

debug-Atheros+touchpad OK.log

preboot-Atheros+touchpad OK.log

 

 

Good Morning

- as suggested by Jieff I hid the post where the kext resolution was so as not to share that method and then we can help in the most correct way by Clover

- here are already these debug and preboot to be able to analyze where the problem of not always working could be

- in case you need something else just tell me what and how to recover because I am weak in the terminal!

- I'm sorry I divulged the method we found but I'm with you to do it in the simplest way

thanks

I already hid the comment where I had the kext sharing as well as the steps and I am 100% in agreement with you

I'll be here to help you
