10.6.3 on T60 1951CTO

#1 Post by afcn007 » Sun Apr 18, 2010 11:31 am

Most of the hardware works, problem it is graphic card, with GMA950 27a2, it only supports the external monitor to display, which keeps the laptop's lcd black, I have read someone have fixed this using dsdt which I do not know how and what the code to change, anyone who know how to do this dsdt?

Thank you. The GMA950 EFI fix the problem.

Other problem I am facing is I put VoodooHDA 0.2.6 under Extra/Extensions and sound is not working, and my wifi is atheros 5424, and it is not working.

The sound problem is fixed by the Kext Helper, use Kext Helper b7 to install the voodooHDA 0.26 and install VOODOOHDA prefpane.

Only problem is wifi doesn't work, card is Atheros 5424.

Have a look here for Atheros Legacy kext ... Edit the plist and modify the id with this one, and put it in /Extra/Extensions/

id:

Code: Select all

<string>pci168c,1014</string>
Repair Permission and rebuild kext cache (... or just simply run pfix !)

Reboot ...

For trackpad and trackpoint use VoodooPS2 linked in the last post here: http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=86059

That fixed the problem, but I need to use kext helper to install the voodoops2 and ultranav drv.

Only right now the sleep does not work. Seems it relates to the voodoops2.

Download pfix and run in once, it will generate proper kext caches for you.

What is your sleep problem? If you cannon wake up, than it's audio related problem, most probably VoodooHDA related. If your screen is not shutting off, that it's video driver problem. VoodooPS2 cannot break sleep.

Actually it does on my X60t ... and so does VoodooHDA ... But sleep is a very tricky issue : I guess every config has its own sleep issues depending on the hardware and the software solution used to make it work ...

I have upgrade from 10.6.4 to 10.6.6, I found when reboot, it stop at the Atheros5424 driver, and a cpu panic, if I disable the wifi in bios, I can boot successfully with 10.6.6 all works well except the wifi, any ideas?

Wifi support (Atheros) changed during 10.6.5 update. Check here to see what we did to recover wifi : http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.ph ... &start=194
