Jasper Levi Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Hi Guys, I have this weird problem. Any time I key in my mac user password and press enter/return, the computer pauses for a few seconds (4-5 seconds) before moving on to whatever it requested the password for. This happens everywhere - at login, when performing an administrative task, locking/unlocking System Preferences and even when running a sudo command from within Terminal. I am running macOS Sierra on a Samsung EVO 250GB SSD with Trim enabled. The rest of my config is in my footer. I'd appreciate any help with this. Thanks in advance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaLd0n Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 just test it http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_id=239357 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper Levi Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 just test it http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_id=239357 All seems to be well, apart from a few things: I use a 4k monitor at 4k. The display seems to be constricted to 1920x1080. Have you done it thru the patched DSDT? The Okrasit Performance Fix, while it gives me a high Geekbench score (screenshot attached) makes my 5820K stay between 2 GHz and my turbo limit - currently 4 GHz (screenshot attached) Okrasit's Performance Fix also makes my computer a little unstable. I have had it randomly reboot several times when using it. FCPX is even faster, racing thru Bruce X 5K in 13 seconds - probably due to the performance fix Do I need to stick to iMac 14,2 SMBIOS? If so, please explain why. Do I need Lilu and NVidiaGraphicsFixup kexts? I have run the ADGPFix app... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaLd0n Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 1- Apply HDMI in DSDT, same patch in ur old SSDT 2- if u dont use PMDrvr.kext, dont generate correct p-states, but is good 3- Try with Pike patch to avoid it in Kernel to patch Comment: MSR 0xE2 _xcpm_idle instant reboot (c) Pike R. AlphaMatchOS: 10.12Find: 20b9e200 00000f30 Replace: 20b9e200 00009090 4- U can use iMac14, iMac15, MacPro6...i prefer iMac14,2, but the same result 5- Lilu, AppleAlc and NVidiaGraphicsFixup need it 6- NVidiaGraphicsFixup, use it and u dont need patched again after all updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I set it in System Preferences before I rebooted. So I guess, all well there. 2 - Dare I try PMDrvr and see if sleep and wake work now? Let me try and get back to you on how this goes... 3 - I know for certain that my MSR 0xE2 is not locked. Do I still need the idle reboot fix? 4 - I'd prefer the iMac15,1 sysdef then. It has a Haswell processor, so the right frequency vectors should load, right? Unless PMDrvr kicks in and all is hunky-dory anyway! 5 - Fine with Lilu, although the computer does make a lot of scraping and screeching sounds booting up and coming out of sleep, which were not happening with my earlier setup. Earlier it was just two tapping sounds - one for each channel. 6 - Understood about NVidiaGraphicsFixup.kext Thanks so much for taking the time out to help me this way. I really appreciate it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaLd0n Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 1- Good 2- Need test 3- Ye, u need test 4- No, dont have native support, like Skylake, dont work with a easy way 5- It's true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper Levi Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 1- Good 2- Need test 3- Ye, u need test 4- No, dont have native support, like Skylake, dont work with a easy way 5- It's true OK, so no go with PMDrvr (I didn't have my fingers crossed anyway). I switched to iMac15,1 and all seems to be holding up. Removed the Okrasit Performance Fix, Geekbench is down by about 4400 points but not SO much... screenshot attached. FCPX still blazing fast. How it got so fast, I don't know but I'm not losing sleep over it. It used to take 73 seconds for Bruce X 5K earlier. I had this SSDT which I had created to inject my USB 2 and 3 ports (verified as fine by Rehabman) which you removed while fixing my DSDT. Can I go back to using it? Or better still, can it be patched into the DSDT? Can I also go back to using my audio kext? It let me use a vanilla AppleHDA kext and also survived all updates so far. Best was, there were no scraping noises while booting up. This sort of kills it for me. Can I go back to it, or are we now patching audio thru the DSDT? I can see this "Soundflower" device in my sound settings but I didn't put it in. Can we do away with it, or is it part of the patching? Pls see screenshot of sound settings.

Jasper Levi Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 Hey I hope I didn't upset you with all my questions. About the kexts etc. I'm just genuinely curious and eager to learn, and quite grateful for all the help... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaLd0n Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 yes, u can back to old audio, apply patches in config.plist, in DSDT have hdef with same id no idea about soundflower, i think is external audio interface Yes, use ur ssdt usb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasper Levi Posted May 19, 2017 Author Share Posted May 19, 2017 Kernel panic happening upon booting. It used to happen earlier as well, when I would use Lilu and NVidiaGraphicsFixup kexts. I think I will have to go back to the older Clover setup. If it is not too much to ask, can you send me the DSDT patches in a text file so that I can apply them one by one and see what works best? Thanks so much 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
