I was able to get Sleep and restart working with a combination of EvoReboot along with the EHCI and USB DSDT Fix. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...&#entry1247462

I also applied some changes to the lid function in DSDT. Shutdown however is still not working properly.

Please make sure to backup your DSDT before applying mine.

Thank you aschar for straightening out my compile errors.

Much Thanx to chadp1a for finding a solution for sound !! I musta been lookin for a month THANK YOUUU ! Im running a 6831 with the myhack usb installer (its the best one ive found so far) when i updated to 10.6.2 using standalone and plugged in HDMI the screen would freeze so i used the 10.6.1 NVDANV50Hal.kext and NVDAResman.kext to get it workin again !! here they are if anyone needs em.http://www.megaupload.com/?d=8EVX9G3K

REkLiSS Do you have any issues with shutdown?

When I choose shutdown the machine executes Halt but the lights and fans keep on running. I've let the machine sit overnight in this state and it gets fairly warm so I'm guessing other things are left powered.

I've tried, Openhaltrestart, Evoreboot, and removing AppleHDA.kext (some suggested it caused shutdown issues.) None of which seemed to allow for a proper 'Soft Off' state.

It seems like S5 is not being initiated by the OS or it's somehow getting messed up in translation in the DSDT maybe?

Anyone have a suggestion?

Do you have GraphicsEnabler=yes in you boot plist? If so this is causing the problem. Only deal is I don't know why. If I set it to No laptop will shutdown properly. I have tried using another injection method such as nvinject etc.. but I do not get transparency in the menu bar.

Gateway P6860FX Laptop
8800M GTS 512mb

Took me a little while to finish this I had some family issues. Anyways here it is my P-6831/6860FX Snow Leo 10.6.2 Hackint0sh guide (Aside from eSATA, Intel Wifi, internal mic and proper shutdown these are not currently working):

* To start I used Conti's Myhack USB installer on a 16GB flash drive from a restored dmg image of 10.6 using disk utility, this is by far the most current, and thorough method that I have used. It allows for an all-digital install which virtually eliminates the possibility of burn errors or faulty media. It also uses the latest Chameleon (RC3). Heres the link-
http://osx86.sojugarden.com
here are the options I chose in myhack:
* com.apple.Boot.plist
* GraphicsEnabler - Adds GraphicsEnabler = Y to com.apple.Boot.plist for Full QE/CI Support
* AHCIPortinjector.kext
* AppleIntelPIIXATA.kext & IOATAFamily.kext
* PS2Controller
* FakeSMC.kext
* JMicronATA.kext
* LegacyAppleRTC.kext
* NullCPUPowerManagement.kext
* OpenHaltRestart.kext
* PlatformUUID.kext
* Sleepenabler.kext

* Installed ATools_Snow.pkg extracted From the SnowOsx leopard Universal v3.6 (10.6.2) distro from dan1234. It has a ton of useful utilities and kexts . You can probably find ATools pkg if you do a bit of googling but i already had the distro. You can find the iso here-
http://www.mechodownload.com/forum/m...ree-Hosts.html

* I used this guide along with the standalone combo update to upgrade to 10.6.2-
http://prasys.co.cc/2009/11/tutorial-upgrading-to-osx-10-6-2/

*** I deleted Sleepenabler.kext (after update but before boot-up from another computer running windows 7 with Macdrive 8)
* For sound (FINALLY!) I used Gilgamesh's and chadp1a's recompiled DSDT along with chadp1a's AppleHDA.kext found here- http://www.infinitemac.com/attachmen...7&d=1260141640 and here http://www.mediafire.com/?twheytziwho

* To enable HDMI without screen freezing i used NVDANV50Hal.kext & NVDAResman.kext from 10.6.1 found here-
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=8EVX9G3K

* To fix the memory read error in system profiler i used SMBIOSResolver.kext found in ATools

* I used EvOSpeedStep.kext, EvOreboot.kext and VoodooBattery.kext all from ATools

* This is a semi-fix/workaround i used for the webcam
install CamTwist 2.1 found here- http://allocinit.com/images/b/b6/CamTwist-2.1.dmg
Launch the Program
In preferences > video devices force the resolution to 320x240 on the "USB 2.0 camera"
In the box Step 1: Choose a video source, double click "Webcam"
Select nothing else, at least for now (unless you want effects)
Keep the program open, and relaunch Skype (for example) in skypes preferences > video
Instead of choosing "USB 2.0 camera" as the camera (can't, because it is in use by CamTwist) - choose "CamTwist"

*****Ok thats my install. If anyone has any ideas, questions, or possible solutions to eSATA, IntelWifi, internal mic and proper shutdown, please post them. I'm looking forward to hearing everyones feedback.

Great post!

Hi everyone,

I use to be a avid helper / poster over at Insanelymac, but the scene over there has slowed down to a screeching halt.

First let me say thank you so much for this thread. I had one of the launch Gateway 6xxx line (when they were p-171fx) and through 10.5 i got everything working except two things: No surprise shutdown and camera.

The reason I am posting is I am humbly asking if someone could please help me converting my appleHDA from 10.5 to 10.6. Back in the day I had Taruga (applehda patcher creator) create a HDA for my chipset because of how rarely used it was on boards. I've read the tutorial on here but keep screwing up the hex work. I have a fully working DSDT with only 1 warning INC cmos fix and all the fixings.

So far on my gateway I have everything back up and running except shutdown, audio, and camera. Someone already posted about the CamTwist fix. BTW, the problem with the cameras in these laptops are the fact that OSX can't regulate the correct MP setting and therefore that's why you get it to turn on, but a black screen.

I understand this is asking a huge favor from someone and hoping that somenoe could help me out. I would be more than willing to donate for your time for a working HDA. I truly thank you guys for your time reading this and thanks again for all your help with everything on this forum.

Sincerely,

Tony

Post your specs here and I'll see if I can help you.

Thank you so much ... I booted up in Fedora 10 (12 had bad check sum) and run codec0 and 1. 0 as you can see didn't come up but 1 did. I also have my 10.5 apple hda working and my dsdt if you need it. Couple things I noticed... volume buttons worked moving the volume and speaker icon up top but didn't hear any audio (didn't have anything to test with due to limited files).

Side Note: Linux can't properly shutdown the system either so appearently it's not just a mac issue
