Rampage II Gene Snow Leopard: Can't Restart After Sleep

jdc1001 · #1 10-01-2009, 07:43 PM

I've got 10.6.1 up and running pretty well on this board. Great performance, and it seems largely compatible. Everything seems to be working with the exception of a strange interaction between sleep and restart. The system will shutdown / restart fine unless it gets put into S3 sleep (sleep works fine otherwise). After sleep, shutdown and restart will both fail with the system just hanging until I hit the power button. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Here's my config:

General

Chameleon 2 RC 3
PC EFI 10.3
Fake SMC V2
Using IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector.kext to avoid the orange drive icons
Installed by restoring an SL disk image to a thumb drive, installing Chameleon, etc.

Contents of /EFI/Extra/Extensions:

AD2000b.kext
OpenHaltRestart.kext
Disabler.kext
PlatformUUID.kext
IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector.kext
fakesmc.kext

Patched DSDT with the following (attached):

Remove processor aliases
The KiNG's fix for the IRQ conflict causing slow SATA performance
Added an HDEF section

Its a common issue, i have it too since the first releases of Leopard, but just with the restart, shutdown works fine... found no solution yet

ASUS P5K-E wifi

maybe OpenHaltRestart?

Yup, I've seen a few other posts with people having the same issue. Is it specific to Asus boards? It didn't seem to happen when I was running a GA-G31M-E2SL.

This happens on my Dell Mini 10v as well, so it's not just asus boards.

I've tried it both with and without O/H/R and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

http://www.mydellmini.com/forum/gene...esolved-3.html Should work for you too.

Interesting. I tried changing my USB configuration to legacy off, legacy on or auto, and it still didn't make restarts work after sleep. Thanks anyway...

Hi there,

It's great to see someone else using OS X on the GENE. I'm using your DSDT (above) with the same motherboard, only in Leopard 10.5.7, and I still haven't managed to get sound working. Could you perhaps link the kext you're using? Or do you have any other insights?

Sure, the kext I use for audio is AD2000b.kext (attached). More info is available in this thread. If you're using my DSDT, you won't need the HDAEnabler.kext, just install AD2000b.kext in /System/Library/Extensions/ with something like Kext Utility. (mine is loading fine off of my EFI partition's /Extra/Extensions).

If you end up building your own DSDT, add an HDEF section similar to what's in mine like so:

Code:

Device (HDEF)
            {
                Name (_ADR, 0x001B0000)
                Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
                {
                    Store (Package (0x04)
                        {
                            "layout-id", 
                            Buffer (0x04)
                            {
                                0x0C, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00
                            }, 

                            "PinConfigurations", 
                            Buffer (Zero) {}

                        }, Local0)
                    DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
                    Return (Local0)
                }
            }

This is what makes using HDAEnabler.kext unnecessary. More info in this thread if you're interested.

Question - Are you having the same problem with not being able to restart or shutdown after sleep that I am?
