Hello,
My system is a Dell D830.
After a lot of tinkering around, I managed to install Snow Leopard on it. Please see my
guide.
I did a few DSDT mods to get some basic fixes.
Now, the system sleeps (S3 suspend to ram) but does not deep sleep (S5 suspend to disk), shutdown or reboot. I am using OpenHaltRestart.kext and SleepEnabler.kext. The latter made it possible to even suspend.
I am including my dsdt.dsl (which includes my fixes, by the way).
I see tantalizing references to the sleep button, SBTN, etc., but I have not found any systematic documentation for the code (btw. I am comfortable with coding as I do plenty of numerical coding in my work).
Can anyone take a look and let me know what I need to do to fix my poweroff and hibernate problem ?
The DSDT repository does not contain a fixed DSDT for my laptop.
PS: Microsoft's ASL compiler should be outlawed.
