BTW....Anyone get sleep working on this board???

Nice airwalk, appreciated. Has anyone figured out how to sleep this thing? I hate having to restart so much.

airwalk:
regarding the audio dsdt fix you posted, I get the following error when I try to convert back to asl:
Was the DTGP section already in your dsdt file or did you add that in? I don't have a DTGP method in my file.

yes you need to add code for DTGP you can find the complete document at this link here

download the file "How_to_patch_DSDT_with_LAN_and_HDEF_functions_inc luding_LegacyHDA.zip"

follow the steps in that doc but you have to use the code from my post for codec id and layout ID. everything else is the same.

For our board codec and layout ID:

"codec-id",
Buffer (0x04)
{
0x89, 0x08, 0xEC, 0x10
},

"layout-id",
/**** Is ResourceTemplate, but EndTag not at buffer end ****/ Buffer (0x04)
{
0x79, 0x03, 0x00, 0x00
},

and use the appleHDA in my post reboot and your should be good to go.

BTW I didnt do the LAN Part of the patch you can try if you want.

Thanks bud, I will give that a try, although I do prefer using the 64-bit kernel. Let me know if you find a sleep solution and I will do the same.

Ok i have a question does my leopard install have to be on a GUID partition in order for me to install SL on a new HD?

What partition scheme were you planning on using alternatively?

Something to note about the sleep function: I am pretty sure my computer never makes it all the way to sleep. My fans stay on and my ipod will continue charging even though my display is off. When I sleep my macbook my ipod stops charging (potential usb issue?). I thought that the problem was getting my computer to wake back up, but I don't think its sleeping to begin with.

I try to install SL in a blank 2.5" HD that i have inside my desktop yesterday from Leopard running on a partition on another hard drive that contains my data and the OS only. All went pretty good until l had to figure out my Video card EFI string because I don't know how to get it from my Radeon 4850. I copied another string from someone else and continued the process and boot but i am stuck in the apple logo with the wheel under. It just stays turning. Could someone please help me, I really don't know anything about programming or terminal but after doing research about the 4850 2 methods to get the EFI im still confused.

i am using the 4870, no efi or kext needed anymore thanks to pc efi boot file from netkas (netkas.org, you will learn a lot).

boot with the -v flag for verbose mode (in your /extra/com.apple.boot.plist or at the boot prompt) so that you can see where you are getting stuck and post the result here.

prior to the built-in fix for the 48x0 cards from netkas i was using the evoenabler.kext which was working well. I think you can find that on netkas' site as well.
