I did a HF7C install, and never worried about the EFI....but not sure if it was still there from before. I have audio, and everything works. The only thing I wish worked better was the battery notification. When my battery is almost dead it locks up with a whole bunch of text on the screen, like during bootup. So it takes a hard reset to Barryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10159357018682384745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20321704937345143.post-74847409386351208252010-11-24T09:42:00.830+08:002010-11-24T09:42:00.830+08:00@Alex

But then it's pretty good as a hackintosh, although during the remaining time I had with it, I could only get it updated to 10.6.2 anything higher and there were kinks here and there. DSDT I suppose but then I didn't have the patience nor the time to figure it out.

My girlfriend is talking about buying me an HP1000 for Christmas (so I can make it into a Hackintosh).<br /><br />Your guide will be invaluable! However, just off the top I've noticed you say you've abandoned your netbook recently?<br /><br />Is there a different or higher performance netbook you'd recommend?

It puts that in there automatically as part of the package so you have:<br /><br />FakeSMC.kext (w/ temperature monitoring feature) and VoodooHDA.kext in /S/L/E.<br /><br />The rest is in EFI's /Extra folder; notably "LegacyAGPM.kext" along with a new DSDT.aml LeMaurien19https://www.blogger.com/profile/09390684935475138809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20321704937345143.post-277882269109076652010-11-20T23:21:49.909+08:002010-11-20T23:21:49.909+08:00I did notice playing a game last night that I thou...I did notice playing a game last night that I thought it ran faster with HF7c vs HF6 on battery...which shouldn't happen if the driver is different.

...The HP Mini 311 is a really weird machine then...<br /><br />I hate that it's unpredictable and that user experience is a mixed bag all in all.<br /><br />@Barry<br />Yes, it's because Ghraphics chip power management was introduced in HF7. Ion was not managed properly before and it was firing on full throttle regardless of usage, thus sucking batt juice at a steady max pace.LeMaurien19https://www.blogger.com/profile/09390684935475138809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20321704937345143.post-44077370761634687962010-11-20T17:59:34.426+08:002010-11-20T17:59:34.426+08:00oh yeah i forgot, i've gone with a root instal...oh yeah i forgot, i've gone with a root install ever since. no efi kung fu for me. my reason: recovery is much much simpler, and if all else fails and there's no apple bootdisk available, i could just plug my hard drive to a windows machine running mac drive and delete/paste kexts,edit plists or delete dastardly dsdts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20321704937345143.post-23942203640883392010-11-20T17:49:35.196+08:002010-11-20T17:49:35.196+08:00keep a copy fakesmc.kext in S/L/E.
