```
Offset    Original  Patched
0000ABF5  72        EB
0000AC2D  01        04
```
Disabled devices
- WWAN (no module)
- Trackpoint (can be enabled when using VoodooPS2Controller.kext)
Untested devices
- SD card reader
- Fingerprint scanner
- Thunderbolt 3 (USB type-c works)
Firmware Revisions

(Important) You need to generate a proper config.plist with unique serial numbers:
- Run ./tools/gen.sh (macOS) or tools\gen.bat (Windows) to generate config.plist.
- Add -f or --force flag to forcibly regenerate config.plist with new serial numbers.
All SSDT hotpatches are located at EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/dsl. You can update the compiled .aml binaries by running update.sh (macOS) or update.bat (Windows).
The SSDT-KBD.aml is tuned for ApplePS2SmartTouchPad.kext. If you want to switch to VoodooPS2Controller.kext, use SSDT-KBD.aml in backup folder instead.
