I had a similar problem (not the same). My mistake was the I had the fake buffer kext also loaded.
Maybe you can try putting in the -v (verbose) flag in the /Extra/com.apple.boot.plist and see what happens?

Coming out of sleep takes a different path though so maybe you should ask netkas the question. He is the real guru. He may have a way of tracing the problem.

The other thing I noted in my issues were that sleep problems were created when the system was going to sleep. I would see some errors in the log then. I would see nothing bad on waking up.

Thanks for the reply! lspci shows I do have an ethernet controller

Attansic Technology Corp. Unknown Device [1969:1063] (rev c0)

So I'm guessing I have a newer version of the mobo, if this isn't a realtek thing. I saw some people posting around about Attansic 1062 and 1026, but haven't found anything about 1063. I will keep looking.

One more thing. I can not set my resolution either. I edited com.apple.Bood.plist, but no luck. I am stuck at a weird resolution for now. Anyone know a way to force a resolution?

EDIT::: Using OSx86 Tools' Boot editor, it shows that I am running 1920x1080x32, but that is not the case. it's weirdly stretched and not right.

Also, I have Rev 2.0. That would probably be causing some of my issues, yes?

anyone have some instructions to dual boot chamelion and windows7 on the same drive ? ive spent days following different instructions, and reinstalling windows7/leopard, i think ill just ask here.

oh everything else in the first post works, i just need to figure out how to dual boot off 1 hard drive.

The latest version of ubuntu will not only mult-boot but also detect the different OS installs for you I have a posting about it earlier.

You have to change the grub.cfg for hackintosh as I point out in that reply since grub2 assumes it is a real mac.

thanks for the reply, i actually read your post, before i posted this, i was gonna go that route, if i couldnt find anyway to make chameleon work.

The person with the best answer to the question (brfransen)
I would suggest not fighting the battle but winning the war.

Display: I had a similar problem with display when I used aVGA monitor as the only monitor. I could not set the resolution. When I used a DVI monitor by itself or with another vga it worked but I had to use the display setting in the system preferences to set the VGA resolution. No idea what was going on there.

Also, use the OSX86Tools to set the graphics card feature. Maybe that will help you. It did not help me though.

I've been using -v to try trace my random wake issues.

I've tracked a possible cause - the GFX card not waking up properly. To that end, i've removed the EFI string for my GFX card and got it working via a DSDT patch instead, which means I can send a wake notification to it on an acpi wake, which should fix it if it is indeed the error. It'll be a few days before I've used it enough to see if it's a fix or not though.

I am trying this new method, but can not get the installer to fully load. i get no kp, but all i get is a blank screen. i am wondering if this is to do with my video card? i am following your directions exactly, but nothing. i have a nvidia 9400gt video card, this should be supported by the graphicsenabler, correct? any help is appreciated...

Anybody tried adding an additional Ethernet NIC card? I added a Realtek 8139D which should run natively in OSX but for some reason, it does not show up in Snow.

Could this be caused by the DSDT patch that included the ethernet fix? My built-in ethernet works. Just wondering why the PCI NIC is not being detected.

Anyone has a clue?

I had a similar problem: I built another hackintosh in about 20 minutes today and I had already done a linux dd of my drive to a new drive. So booting was easy but system profiler did not show the network card. So I went to system preferences->network and it started by prompting me with a message about a new card being detected and that I should enable it.

Try it ... it might work.
