Sound is working. I did a fresh install on another drive, copied over my settings manually, and then used carbon copy cloner to get it all back on my original disk.

Spotlight KP

Hi,

(i thought my installation went well, but now i have the following problem. Every time i boot my computer, Spotlight is trying to index my harddrive and my hackintosh gets a KP and i have to reboot...booting....Spotlight trying to index...KP...reboot...etc. Someone has a fix for me?)

O.K. it's not (only) a Spotlight problem. I stopped running spotlight and deleted the index. (hostconfig SPOTLIGHT=-NO- and mdutil -i off /, mdutil -E /) Now i get every few minutes a KP...Grrrr. Any suggestions?

Another point is that i can't suspend, i have to shutdown the computer every time. Smartsleep didn't help.


HW: G31M-ES2L, E5200, 4GB RAM
SW: see install-instructions (except installing Chameleon RC1 manually), SnowLeopard 10.6.1

I'm a bit confused about the PleaseSleep appliation... I don't have PleaseSleep and my sleep seems to work fine, as in my computer turns itself off in, say 20 minutes. It turns on my fast after this, thus I assume it went to sleep. Am I missing something here?

P.S I have the same board as sk1nhd33t.

I have everything as in the first post and automatic sleep works for me without PleaseSleep as well. 32 and 64 bit both.

Only difference is I don't have a bonjour fix. Weird thing though, if you set Display and Computer to sleep after, say 2 minutes of inactivity, display will sleep at that time but it takes a couple of minutes after that before computer sleeps too.

1 sata drive, apple pro usb keyboard, 7300gt, firewire pci, picopsu.


OK, tested a bit more and it seems to just work now and again :-)

Don't upgrade your bios, I upgraded to F10 and now my ethernet does not work, even with the ethernetbuiltin put in the boot.plist

Edit: Help, Everything worked fine with the Beta F9 Bios, but now ethernet does not work even when I downgrade to F9 (final) bios. Im going to try the F8 bios, but does anyone know if theres any solution?

I see this too. It's almost like the sleep timer for computer starts after the Display goes to sleep. So say if you have 2 minutes set for sleep for both Display and Computer, Computer will go to sleep after 4 minutes. This is just a theory, not totally positive on this.

looking into buying the board, but i'm not really sure if 5.1 multichannel audio is working?!

Installation on G31M-ES2L with geforce 7300 GS - success

Hi,
Using a bought copy of the upgrade disk I managed to use your tutorial to upgrade a working ideneb install to snow leopard! Thank you SO MUCH, you are the greatest!!

Some things:
1. adding EFI means adding a long list of digits to the com.apple.Boot.plist and it is based on your graphics card. I used "EFIStudio" , entered my EFI in the file (which you later copy from the USB to the HD in /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist)
2. the UUID of my computer (you can find it in "apple->about this mac->more info->hardware under "hardware UUID") was already in the plist when I opened it, which brings us to:

3. I did not do exactly as written here. this tutorial is for a new install and I upgraded a current install, somehow it worked (maybe because I was based on ideneb to begin with?), after installing from USB I booted from the USB again but chose the HD I upgraded. the OS started ok (no video :-( ) but could not install chameleon for some reason. I didn't get it installing until now.. but I can boot from the HD now (after copying all of the Extra/ and boot files and changing as written in first post) and now the OS works.. so I don't know what was that chameleon failed to install all about.

Anyway, thank you so much for the howto, I really admire all you people taking the time to make this possible!!

Thanks - I will try this audio trick on a fresh install again tonight.

Or can I do it on my existing install, I think i added several kexts to get it work, where is the path to remove them?

What are these paths? "get rid of all other sound kexts that u have added, from both /E/E and /S/L/E"

1. I found the the link to the voodoohda file and pane.

Thanks!
