Sleep working perfectly on GA-G31M-ES2L
 
Sleep now works perfectly after a small tweak on GA-G31M-ES2L(BIOS ver F10).
All that we have to do is place a copy of SleepEnabler.kext under the root of the snow leopard installation drive(/) and another copy under /Extra/Extensions. Repair the drives permission . Reboot and all is fine as a normal MAc machine.
Thanx to insanelymac community for all the articles so far. Keep it up !!

Note: No need to use PleaseSleep utility any more

That is weird. I updated mine but AutoSleep is still not working. Manual Sleep works with OR without PleaseSleep utility - just like in F8, F9, F9 beta, F10 beta BIOS. F10 final is just the same as the others.

I have both Sleepenabler in E/E and S/L/E.

Are you running 32 or 64 bit?

Did you recompiled your DSDT after BIOS update?

You have something special up your sleeve? :D

I have placed the SleepEnabler.kext in /Extra/Extension and another copy under / .I dint no recompiling stuffs for DSDT or anything. just repaired the disks and set the automatic sleep in the Energy Saver pref .Thats it. It works perfectly as my macbook unibody does.

so you dont have a DSDT? how bout the cmos reset? do you have sleepenabler or NullCPUPowermanagement kext running?

will give the F10 bios a try and test, if failed then your machine must be hiding something :p

EDIT: we are talking about automatic sleep here right? not the manual sleep from apple menu then sleep?

The link that you gave was sk1nhd33t's own guide. That guide involves using of DSDT. Did you use the attached DSDT that sk1nhd33t used? That is pretty cool you made it to work, but why can't I make mine work. Of course, I repaired permissions and rebuilt Extension.mkext (also erased /System/Library/Cache/*). I even tried kext utility just to make sure. Placed it in /E/E - /S/L/E. Repaired permission in /E/E as well.

Just like sk1nhd33t, PleaseSleep works. But I'm still hoping for the native automatic sleep.

You got one obedient mobo there! :D

@MonkeyDLuffy
Just follow the guide given in the link that i posted. U def need DSDT. I guess the mistake that u have done is u might have placed SleepEnabler.kext in /S/L/E. U need not do so. Just place the kext in /E/E and /(root) alone. Rest should work fine. Hope u have rebuilt ur Kext using the KExt utility.

DSDT help
 
I am definitely a newbie but got OS X (sort of) working on my G31M-E2SLrev 2 board.

I used the method of boot132 and using a retail install. The DSDT file I used was for rev 1. I've got everything working except NIC (which does work with this board anyway) and I can't get it to sleep or shut down.

I also couldn't find a kext for my video card GeForce 9500 GT.

I downloaded the DSDT file, do I just unzip it and put in my root directory.

I need help! Thanks
