I was about to try with SnowOSX 3.6 (10.6.4) instead of 3.5 (10.6.0)... I 'll tell you what I get

Thanks for the reply, hope you can work the native speed step out. I would like to help, just let me know. BTW i solved the CPU speed issue by using a smbiosresolve.kext. Not sure whether it is the bluetooth problem or other things. The laptop sleeps and wakes up well when Wireless switch is turned off. However the machine wakes up immediately after sleep when the switch is on.

try myhack installer and use the 10.6.3 DMG. I have positive result.

I tried your DSDT, it does fix my problem with waking up immediately. However the Bluetooth and the network seems shut down, which further indicates the problem is related to the network switch in DSDT or the bios.
The brightness control is odd, i suggest you to delete it from DSDT. another thing is the USB fix in DSDT, you forgot to add the device ID.

I have an X61 running almost perfectly on 10.6.2. Everything works the way I hoped it would, except perhaps random crashes of skype every hour or so. The more annoying thing is that battery life is very short, I get at best 45 minutes to 1 hour of use out of a fully charged, 2200 mAh (smaller version) battery. In WIndows the same battery should give about 3 hours. Anyone experience something similar?

I have Thinkpad x61t with SL 10.6.4, everything works fine for me (after 1-2 sleepless nights), great work! But... after my laptop awake USB ports dies,is there any solution on that?

Hi all,
I have X61 tablet and 10.6.4 installed and more or less, everything is working except bluetooth.
I don't know why, but I can't turn on bluetooth in windows to keep it turned on for mac os x. Every time it just turns off. I have newest bios installed and there is no option such as 'keep it turned on all the time'.
Chipset is Broadcom (vendor ID: hex 0A5C) and product ID is hex 2110 (rev hex 0100).
I tried to mess with \System\Library\Extensions\IOBluetoothFamily.kext\ Contents\PlugIns\BroadcomUSBBluetoothHCIController .kext\Contents\Info.plist ut with no success.

Is there anybody who can point me out to the right direction of fixing this problem in dsdt?

Regards,
Ivan

It took several hours of trial and error, but I managed to get a fully working X61-7675 working with all hardware in 32-bit mode on 10.6.3 and 10.6.4, including a fully functioning fingerprint scanner and the MC5725 Verizon wireless card. Sleep also fully works and I managed to make some changes in the DSDT code to prevent the system from waking up immediately after going to sleep. Sleep when closing and wake when opening the lid work. The screen auto dims when idle and will dim when switching from AC to battery. CPU and drive temp works in iStats and native speed stepping is enabled. Bluetooth also wakes up from sleep, although it may take 30-45 seconds to become responsive. Make sure the wireless radio switch it turned on before booting, otherwise bluetooth may not be available unless you reboot. AD1984 audio is fully functional via an EFI string in the boot file.

These are all the drivers you will need to install. You will need to use the asereBLN bootloader, otherwise shutdown and reboot may not work properly. Remove any other drivers you already have, otherwise you will get a kernel panic.

How to update 10.6.4 update? When I almost finish it while clicking the mkg installer, I got kernel panic indicates that the version doesn't match. Any idea to solve this problem? I am running vanilla 10.6.3.

Here's an updated com.apple.Boot.plist which has all the PCI card information injected via EFI strings, so you no longer need to install the IOPCIFamily.kext. The wireless card I have setup is the Atheros 5212 802.11abg.
