Hello,
well it's been quite a piece of work but i got the most important things working on my new Vostro. i'm quite aware that it has the nvidia Optimus technology integrated and i will most likely never be able to make use of the nvidia gpu itself, but it does not really matter since hardware accelaration is fully working on the Intel HD Graphics 3000.
i was successful in getting full cpu speed using SpeedStepper and i am scoring ~9200, which should be the best result possible.
i am not generating P-States themselves and i assume that they're picked up from the native SSDTs themselves. the last thing that is bothering me is the high power consumption while running osx. it is running with a full charge about 2 hours on osx. on the other hand it runs about 3 to 4 hours on windows. i tried a lot that i found while researching this matter but the SSDTs seem to differ rather much (just as the DSDTs do from the earlier ones in the family), so they aren't really applicable. i guess that the high consumption is related to problems regarding the C-States (i suppose if the nvidia gpu isn't correctly handled with it could waste a bit of power, too..).
Specs:
Chipset: Intel Mobile HM67 Express
CPU: Intel Core i7 2670QM 4x2,2 GHz
GPU: Intel HD Graphics 3000 / NVIDIA Geforce GT 525M (Optimus, thus not usable)
RAM: 6 GB DDR3 SDRAM 1337 MHz
Setup:
- OSX 10.7.1
- Custom DSDT
- Chimera 1.7
- Generating C-States
- Not generating P-States
- Patched AppleIntelCPUPowermanagement
- VoodooBattery, VoodooPS2Controller, VoodooSDHC, FakeSMC with MacBookPro 8,2 definition
if anyone could give me a hint on how to proceed on this matter it would be greatly appreciated
