Asus K50IN

[man_of_the_oak]

I would recommend removing a link to Tony-the-thief's tutorial regarding dual-boot. It's a piece of shit as almost everything on his website...

If I have some time I may create a better tutorial but there isn't much to care about.

Simply install Mac OS X (partition the hdd including a FAT partition for Windows - later to be reformated to NTFS using Windows installer) - only remember not to add/remove any partitions using Windows installer - otherwise your partition table may get damaged! After that - install Chameleon using boot0hfs method and that's it - fully working dual boot setup is here (got it on my Asus too).

+ to that user who wants to install the system on MBR paritition table - I'd rather repartition the whole drive. MBR installs aren't the best ones, I've heard of some problems sometimes + in case of Asus, you can use your Windows serial number to activate the system without need of using recovery partition. Only get a clean (not pre-activated like some shit on torrents...) ISO of your version of Windows (or edit some files to get multi-version edition), install it and activate using your previous serial number. It's completely legal (if you have a license you can get the system from anywhere) and works - you only need to use phone activation, otherwise it won't. Good luck!

Hye there,
i followed all the steps to edit dsdt, but the sleep still don't work. when i click sleep. the screen went off but the power LED still on and when i press any key, nothing happen until i need to long press the power button to turn off my laptop.

The second most crucial problem is, i can't connect to my college Wifi. it using the Wpa2 enterprise. Every time i try to connect it end up with Self Assigned IP. Anybody every experienced this before?

Thankz!

Did you use my kexts?

Regarding Wifi - atm I know that the DSDT fix is incorrect but I need some people who would offer some time for testing purposes.

@flip360

Thanks!
Well, I'm fine although VERY VERY busy these days - started my IT education at the University and (un)fortunately it's one of the best here, so I have a lot of work and I mean A LOT :P So please keep that in mind when I reply slowly

So how can I connect to wifi network? My 10.6.8 up and running now but no wifi and therefore it's useless

There would be two/three possible solutions:
1. swap the wifi card with another one (Broadcom chipset that works OOTB) i have the Dell1490
2. try and connect to a WPA2Personal, works here
3. try the AtherosFix.kext for the AR8925

Ok I installed a kext from kexts.com and wifi is working now. Just waiting for tomorrow to connect to my University's network. Hope it'll work cause the network is WPA2 Enterprise. Now I've 10.6.8 with audio, wifi, DSDT repaired and compiled in /Extra. But close the lid cause the system to hang. And sometime the system panic at boot. Turn it off and turn on again fixed. Another problem is although system recognized and installed software from my 3G USB stick, it just keep saying no signal from mobile network while I can connect with Windows 7.

Thinking about Lion and will try to figure how to install it on my K40IN.

Check the LID fix in the DSDT, mine is working properly, Lion is still buggy and not working as good as 10.6.8 on our notebooks, hope man_of_the_oak updates us in the meantime. As for the Windows side, sorry, cannot help you there

Cheers

Here is a screen of my verboss just before the screen turns black
