Hello!
I have followed some of your guide and got my network to run(THANKS :-* ). It all seems to run stable at 64bit. However, I can not get the sound working.

I have installed snow loepard using Chameleon RC2 v3 and used these Kext :
AD1988b.Fix.kext
SleepEnabler.kext
fakesmc.kext
OpenHaltRestart.kext
Disabler.kext

Setup:
Asus P5K-E WIFI
E6750 @ 3.4 GHz
4GB RAM
250GB SATA HDD
GeForce 7300LE 256mb

Where do I find my "DSDT.aml" ? The replacement, just drag and drop?

Sincerely Joey (:

apologize for bad English

You need small tool named iasl to decompile and compile your DSDT.aml to DSDT.dsl and the other way around .

to get the DSDT from your system you need another script called getDSDT.sh

You can get your "starter kit" here :[ATTACH]Attachment 678[/ATTACH], just download it and put it on your Desktop

I included a copy of my DSDT.dsl ( use it only for comparison don't drag and drop on your system it will not work ! )

to get your DSDT from your system open terminal and go to to your "starter kit" aka tools directory

e.g

Code:

cd Desktop/tools/

Code:

./getDSDT.sh

you will now have a new file called dsdt.dat . you can't modify this so you have to decompile it first

Code:

./iasl -d dsdt.dat

and you should see something like this :

Code:

Intel ACPI Component Architecture

AML Disassembler version 20080926 [Oct  4 2008]

Copyright (C) 2000 - 2008 Intel Corporation

Supports ACPI Specification Revision 3.0a



Loading Acpi table from file dsdt.dat

Acpi table [DSDT] successfully installed and loaded

Pass 1 parse of [DSDT]

Pass 2 parse of [DSDT]

Parsing Deferred Opcodes (Methods/Buffers/Packages/Regions)

.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Parsing completed

Disassembly completed, written to "dsdt.dsl"

and now you can modify the newly created dsdt.dsl (you can also compare it to the one i added in the "starter kit" to see where are the differences )

just open it with a text editor and add your patches ( read about patching ad1988b here and when you finish adding, just recompile the file with this command:

Code:

./iasl -ta dsdt.dsl

if everything goes well you should see this:

Code:

Intel ACPI Component Architecture

ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20080926 [Oct  4 2008]

Copyright (C) 2000 - 2008 Intel Corporation

Supports ACPI Specification Revision 3.0a



ASL Input:  dsdt.dsl - 10047 lines, 335962 bytes, 4861 keywords

AML Output: dsdt.aml - 37950 bytes, 1074 named objects, 3787 executable opcodes



Compilation complete. 0 Errors, 0 Warnings, 0 Remarks, 47 Optimizations

and you will have a file called dsdt.aml in your directory . Just drag this file on your root volume and restart

how yooou doin' :D

anyone with asus p5k-e wifi-ap motherboard, tried time machine ?

Hi!

DSDT Time machine fix:

Insert this:

Code:

                Device (GIGE)

                {

                    Name (_ADR, Zero)

                    OperationRegion (GPIO, SystemIO, 0x0800, 0x06)

                    Field (GPIO, ByteAcc, NoLock, Preserve)

                    {

                        GO01,   8, 

                        GO02,   8, 

                        GO03,   8, 

                        GO04,   8, 

                        GO05,   8, 

                        GP9,    1

                    }



                    Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)

                    {

                        0x09, 

                        0x03

                    })

                    Method (EWOL, 1, NotSerialized)

                    {

                        If (LEqual (Arg0, One))

                        {

                            Or (GP9, One, GP9)

                        }

                        Else

                        {

                            And (GP9, Zero, GP9)

                        }



                        If (LEqual (Arg0, GP9))

                        {

                            Return (Zero)

                        }

                        Else

                        {

                            Return (One)

                        }

                    }

                }

In the next section of Device (P0P9):

Code:



           Device (P0P9)

            {

                Name (_ADR, 0x001C0005)

                Method (_PRW, 0, NotSerialized)

                {

                    Return (GPRW (0x09, 0x04))

                }



                Method (_PRT, 0, NotSerialized)

                {

                    If (PICM)

                    {

                        Return (AR09)

                    }



                    Return (PR09)

                }



                ******INSERT HERE*****



            }

Thanks to Gringo Vermelho

Many thanks all of you from this post.

I have an annoying minor problem starting from using leopard.
The Asus P5K-E wifi/ap has two eSATA ports which controlled by jmicro controller. One of the eSATA port is connected to an HDD enclosure.

I found that when the hdd enclosure is online (powered on) it will slow down the bootup time (i.e. bootup time took longer) and the hdd enclosure icon will not display on the desktop. To show it, I have to power off and on.

anybody experience this issue ?

It is for the built-in only

Kind regards,

I don't use eSATA but i remember an update of JMB controller in the latest bios. Did you use the latest bios version ?

Also your console or boot in verbose says somenthing about that?

My motherboard's bios version is 0703. Should I regenerate a new dsdt file after updating a bios ?
