This worked for me:
Updated to 10.6.2 but did not restart
I removed sleepenabler.kext from /Extra/Extensions (also placed LegacyALC883.kext in there)
Placed new netkas sleepenabler.kext into /Extra/Extensions
Then i deletedExtensions.mkext from /Extra
Ran Kext Utility from here
Rebooted and everything cool.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

I followed your instructions and did an upgrade to 10.6.2. It seemed to go OK until the machine rebooted. The iHack screen appears, it all looks OK until I get to the where the login screen should be.

A black screen appears with a mouse cursor. The mouse cursor works, I can move it around, but it's still a black screen. If I press the interrupt button on my PC the correct screen momentarily appears (all the Finder windows and icons etc) and then the machine reboots.If I leave the machine overnight then press the space button all the Apple desktop appears. It doesn't appear after only 15 minutes though.

My card is a Asus badged Nividia 9600GT with 512MB RAM. It worked well under 10.6.1.

Any suggestions at all?

Thanks
Rob.

Just to add to the notes...

The sleepenabler file at netkas.org doesn't seem to be there after the server crash. I got it from http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...owtopic=196466

In Terminal I cd'd to /Extra/Extensions and did a sudo rm -r -f on SleepEnabler and ran the kext update tool.

In System Update, I did not find a way to install without a reboot??? so I installed and rebooted (reboot to Desktop, and About this Mac reports 10.6.2)

I copied the new sleepenabler into E/E and ran kext util.

But no sound... I went in to the Sound panel and re-selected Internal speakers (I have speakers connected to the green jack on the back) and all is well.

Then applied the 3 new Java/iTunes/something-else updates and rebooted again.

This time however I got a KP, it looks like with (the ISleepEnabler

So I rebooted to the USB installer stick and ran Terminal (from the Utilities menu) removed SleepEnabler and Extensions.mkext (no sudo needed, guess the installer disc runs as root) and then restarted.

I had no sound and no sound options.. so I ran the kext util again... and rebooted again.

So I'm at 10.6.2 with sound, but I guess no sleep for now.

EDIT: I installed fakeSMC 2.5 and re-installed the new sleepenabler. Then ran kext util and rebooted. iStat widget (and iStat menus) now reports temperatures. Sleep is instantaneous and more importantly seems to work too (altho I have all the key info not found junk in dmesg)

Sorry everyone another thing just popped up.

Using this guide as a finishing step the Please Sleep kext is loaded onto the system. My question is: Do you have to have the Please Sleep kext and the program loaded in order for the sleep function to work correctly?

Thanks

Steve

it's safe to update from 10.6.0 to 10.6.2 provided that you remove sleepenabler first before updating and replace it with a newer version of sleepenabler after (get the kext from netkas).

PleaseSleep is a fix for "automatic sleep", even without this app "manual" sleep works just fine. Note that 'the_accidental' from here and insanelymac has a working automatic sleep on his ES2L F10 bios but even after copying his bios settings to the dot or a new install, it's still wont work on me.. weird e.

also a much better alternative is a script called "RIP" from here, both works on my machine but i prefer RIP since it doesn't involve an ugly menubar icon.

i believe i already posted it a few pages back but i'll save you the trouble in looking for it..

here is a PDF came from weeksauce12 from his old 10.5.7 leopard tutorial (Slytherine).: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3168149/BIOS_Settings_ES2L.pdf

Thanks so much, i guess my fault was the boot order because that was the only difference. Whatsoever, now it works like charm! Thanks again.

I have the same setup - about the only thing I did slightly unusual was to plug in the SATA drive into SATA1 instead of 0. Anyway BIOS-wise I set the SATA to Auto. Everything works fine

Hmmm I would think the issue is with the ide drive. I purposely purchased a SATA DVD drive for this build. At $20 it was cheap enough. I have 3 drives in my system; 1 for OSX, 1 for Win 7, and 1 to image the OSX drive so I can make changes without always having to start from scratch.

I think the issue with the drives is that the bios searches for the SATA and IDE drives on the same channel (at least that my take from reading the POST message) and perhaps there are IRQ issues with this in OSX.

Drive config:
SATA 0 - OSX
SATA 1 - Win7
SATA 2 - OSX image backup
SATA 3 - DVD drive

Awesome. Thanks for the info sk1nhdd33t

Will patch up accordingly and let everyone know how it goes (if anyone cares).

Does somebody have problems while using an usb keyboard and mouse?

I'm not sure how to describe the behaviour, but it's fairly annoying me. If I type fast or using any kind of multiple-key-shortcut serveral keystrokes get lost. It's not repeatable by typing the same, but it's defently not the users fault
Same story while using the mouse. From time to time a click event gets lost.

I've searched the forums and some people had the same problems but no one since snow leopard. According to some solution tips i've disabled usb legacy in the bios, without any change. (changed USB ports as well)

Not sure if it's a problem of my machine or settings...

thank you in advance!
