I'm still trying to get it to boot without safe mode so I'll try this script when I get the chance and let everyone know it works. Again this is due to power management of Mac OSX versus Windows. In order for this to work on the Ativ, you had to put the system to sleep and wake it up again, then the stylus would function properly. After installing this tweak on the Ativ, Mac OSX works almost flawlessly, stylus and all. I suggest you back up your system with something like CCC if you try this because it may not work correctly. We figured out that it was a USB power issue (there must be something in the boot logic in windows to power on this internal USB port that doesn't exist in Linux or Mac OSX) and a user named sfinktah (from Tonymacx86) created a script to install some custom kext and keep power to the digitzer. Then it would lose all calibration and when you would check the tablet settings, it would say 'no supported tablet found'. The digitizer would be detected but was not calibrated and after installing the Bamboo drivers it would work correctly until you rebooted. So we had a similar problem with the Samsung Ativ 700t. I had thought about giving Mavericks a try too, but I figured it is all worthless until we figure out a way to get the Wacom drivers working. I also had another weird issue, I could plug in a USB mouse and it would work, but I wouldn't be able to see a cursor. Otherwise, there is no point in continuing to try this. The only thing I can think of is trying to get ahold of a member of the Linux Wacom Project peeps and see if they have any way to work around it. I believe the reason why is because the digitizer for the Companion is connected via a special USB port, and not an HDMI port like the Hybrid or a 13HD is. I tried both Companion and 13HD drivers, neither of them worked and gave me the same input. (Besides the InjectEDID)Īs for the Pen Calibration/working, I was as stumped as you officeninja. Inject the 3 kexts that he provides within that zip and you should be able to boot up without any args. If you followed the Surface Pro instructions, you should have downloaded the zip that came with that guys tutorial. in order to get it to work without safe mode, you need to add three kexts to your extra folder, or in the Extensions folder itself. I as well had it working using Clover/OSX 10.8.5. This would make an awesome Modbook Pro like device. I think if we can identify what battery it is and get started on finding the right kext we can get this rolling. Here's a few highlights: Series 7/C210 motherboard, HDA-Intel (sound), Toshiba SSD, Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2230 (rev c4)Īssuming we can open up the tablet, we could replace the wireless chip with a Hackintosh compatable one. I ran a live Ubuntu installation to run a system profiler and I'm attaching the result. I installed the Cintiq Companion software from Wacom but it stated in the settings 'no tablet found' so the system is not seeing it as a wacom tablet, but some kind of generic mouse. Bluetooth seemed to be working, but wifi would not work (probably never will, it's a Intel chip). The battery was not recognized, GPU wasn't working and the pen was recognized but wasn't calibrated. I was able to install it using the same method as you would the Surface Pro but I could not get it to boot without safe mode. Chimera won't be able to boot this type of motherboard, Clover bootloader is the only one that will be seen as bootable. Just like the Surface Pro, it is going to be tough to get anything to work (I don't like working with UEFI only mobo).
