Hi kizwan--
My laptop dies if I try hibernate too on 10.5.6. As to your question, the RTC fix is needed by some, but not all BIOSes for 10.6. Are you running SL? Did you have to put the RTC fix in your DSDT?
The russian text "suggested" that with 10.6.2, that you can go back to 0x08. But it never answered that *if* you already had 0x08 as the length, whether you need to change to 0x02 in the first place.
So that's what I was trying to find out. In any case, I intend to try and I will post here when I find out.
