@jermudgeonPippoX0, I saw on http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.7.0/… ↗ that you had an edited DSDT for the Optiplex 760. I have audio working (partly) and LAN, but haven't tested sleep yet, in 10.7.1. Can you post that DSDT somewhere? Thanks, jermudgeon
I have used a DSDT created with DSDT Autopatcher, but since i have verified i didn't need it, i deleted. (all works good without it)
For audio i used VoodooHDA.kex 2.5.3 - 64bit
i haven't tested sleep yet, so i don't kown if it works or not ...

Qe/ci doesn't work with gma x4500 video card.
If needed you can change video card with someone working …

@pippox0i installed Mac OS X Lion 10.7 Developer Preview 2 on my Dell Optiplex 760 Audio : VoodooHDA.kext ok PippoX0
I use the sound AD1984.pkg. Sound is working but the microphone is not working. Tested: VoodooHDA 2.7.1 & VoodooHDA 2.7.2 but kernel panic.
Which driver works with microphone?
