The Vostro 3550 patch has nothing about video in it.


If it's an Intel HD you can try this http://Olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=391#p3570

but you will also need the proper kexts.

To apply the patch you need to know the video device adress (and then perhaps you must translate it into a sequence of numbers and letters). If I run maldons "run me"-tool, it creates an ioreg.txt-file along with some other files. But I couldn't find the video device-adress in there after opening it with a text editor.

After applying the DualLink patch I get full video resolution now with stock kexts. I didn't even have to install Chimera instead of Chameleon 2 r1394. Great improvement, thanks for the support!

I applied IRQs, RTC and DTGP from the Notebook SandyBridge folder and then DualLink. I can't adjust brightness even after applying the FN Keys patch from the Notebook SandyBridge folder but it's ok as ist is so I don't care.


The next big project is native power management.


Oldnapalm wrote at insanelymac:

"...If power management doesn't work (need NullCPUPowerManagement) you may need patches LPC (if AppleLPC isn't loaded) and HPET (if you have "No HPET(s) available" kernel panic).


For USB problems there are EHCI, UHCI, ICH9 USB sleep, EHCI sleep/ownership.


Sleep problems are usually related to power management and USB…."


An HPET KP didn't happen yet. So I would perhaps try LPC first and see what happens. Then if needed the USB related patches. Can they be applied just alternatively or in different combinations? Would you recommend a certain strategy?

The Vostro 3550 patch includes the needed patches, so if you apply it + DualLink should be enough.


For PM you probably need

I hate to say it but I lost again against the terminal when trying to apply the speedstepper patch for AICPUPM. I downloaded the version 1.2 for Lion 10.7.0 & 10.7.1 (10.7.1 is installed). I copied the file speed_stepper_lion_gm to the desktop. Started terminal, typed

sudo (space).

dragged the file speed_stepper_lion_gm to the terminal

typed space

dragged the file AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext to the terminal


That resulted in the line:

ottos-Mac-Pro:Desktop ottokatz$ sudo ./Users/ottokatz/Desktop/speed_stepper_lion_gm /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext


After typing enter and entering my password terminal said:


command not found.


The terminal and me, a sad story.

Actually you have to drag AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement, not AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext.

The speedstepper patch worked without the dot. I dragged S/L/E on Kext Utility 2.3.2 instead of rebuilding kextcache with a terminal command (don't know the command).


I copied the dsdt.aml with maldons vostro 3550 script plus DualLink patch to the extra-folder (4 lines had to be deleted to get rid of the errors as oldnapalm told me).


I removed NullCPUPowerManagement.kext from the extra-folder and dragged Extra/Extensions-x on Kext Utility.


On first boot resolution was at 1024x768, after some reboots with -v and repairing permissions full resolution is back.


But if I touch the touchpad any windows that I did not open pop up like crazy and perform a little pogo dance.


If I send the Vostro to sleep screen goes black and fans stop spinning. That didn't happen before the speed stepper patch. If I wake it up by pressing the power button screen comes back but keyboard and usb mouse don't work so that I have to shut it down the hard way.


Maybe kextcache was not rebuilded by Kext Utility?

Which hibernatemode are you using? (check with pmset -g in terminal)


If it's not 0 try

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0

 

You can remove /var/vm/sleepimage.

Hibernatemode was: 3.

I didn´t know the terminal command for deleting the sleepimage. I guess "remove /var/vm/sleepimage", will try.

After setting Hibernatemode to 0 and rebooting the trackpad acted normal.

I could send the Vostro to sleep but after trying to wake it up by pressing the power button it wouldn't respond to the keyboard, trackpad and USB mouse.


I'm not sure but I think while booting the Vostro in verbose mode I read something like "LPC not loaded" - but the lines pass way so fast...

Try to enable UseKernelCache (move all kexts to /S/L/E first).

I moved the kexts in E/E to S/L/E, dragged S/L/E on Kext Utility, edited the boot.plist with


UseKernelCache

Yes


removed these lines


npci

0x2000


-I didn't know what they would do-


and rebooted. That ended up in a KP.


After adding


npci

0x2000


again the system loaded with full video resolution and the trackpad acted normal.

Then I sent the Vostro to sleep and tried to wake it up. USB mouse, trackpad and keyboard didn't respond, so I had to pull the plug.


On next reboot the trackpad again makes windows pop up like nuts if I touch it.


I still have the speedstepped AICPUPM in S/L/E.


I found this in the kernel log:

Try VoodooPS2 instead of ApplePS2Controller.


About the wake issue I'm out of ideas. Have you tried the individual DSDT patches instead of the Vostro 3550 one?


Edit: did you patch AppleRTC for the "CMOS reset after sleep" issue? http://Olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=280


You can also try the darkwake kernel flag

This is the kernel log after first boot today. I see just sound related errors (the sound chip isn't supported by Apple HDA), no USB errors, if I'm not wrong.

I thought I saw something about smb yesterday, not sure abaut that.

Yesterday also everything was fine including touchpad till I sent the Vostro to sleep.

If that happens again I go perhaps back to the point where the trouble started - when I removed NullCPUPowerManagement.kext from the extra folder. SleepEnabler (if there is one for Lion) and Voodoopwermini could be alternative.

Surprise, surprise, this time the Vostro woke up almost without problems. Screen came back, spinning beach ball for some seconds, touchpad worked, only the USB mouse acted a little strange for about a minute - if I pulled down a menu it was not possible to select an item - but after a short time this little problem faded away.

Just the fan is spinning most of the time although the machine is idle.

Which devices do you have connected to USB ports? Do you have an USB hub?

Just a mouse usually. Sometimes an apple USB keyboard, if the internal keyboard doesn't work.


After next sleep and wake USB mouse, touchpad and keyboard didn't respond.

When I inserted an USB stick, the windows pogodance started again when touching the touchpad.


So it works sometimes but usually it doesn't.


Maybe I'm better of with SleepEnabler and Voodoopowermini.
