“Thanks a lot. In the disk utility I got: /PCI0@0/EUSB@1D,7 And in the DSDT file, at Device(EUSB) I don't have a lot of things. Just { Name (_ADR, 0x001D0007) } nothing else. Any idea what else I can add to make it working in that case ? You…”

“When I try to compile my dsdt.dsl I get one error: 4644: DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0)) Error 4067 - ^ Object is not accessible from this scope (DTGP) Nevermind I found where is the error and fix it! How about the sound? Is i…”

“I planed to use AppleHDA with DSDT.aml fix.This is my original DSDT.aml Try this legacy kext for ALC662 (Snow Leopard):- media fire.com/?kmnykkqmy5m Make sure AppleHDA.kext in /System/Library/Extensions/ folder is original kext. Remember to…”

“… can you tell me what modification should I apply to this code to disable sleep for a device in usb2 ? … Do you mean you want to disable USB2 capability to wake a sleeping system, don't you? If in "Device (USB2)" entry it have _PSW (Power …”

“So does Asus use AMW0, or do you need to add that code from AMW0. A WMID kext would be useful as many PC vendors use that interface. uninc's DSDT was hideously intertwined with WMID. Looks like I still need to go through WMI and ACPI docume…”

“Where you put this code? I searched in my DSDT for Method (_Q3F, 0, NotSerialized) , But didn't find it.I have a laptop with Bluetooth, where to put this code? It is hardware & BIOS specific. You may have different query method. I'm afraid,…”

“I'm successfully compiled AMW0.kext for SL but got kernel panic while initializing some MethodTerm at boot. Since AMW0.kext project is not finished, I think I'm going to try ACPI4ASUS.kext instead. If ACPI4ASUS.kext developed to works with …”

“Do you remember, not a long time a go, I'm pursuing to enable bluetooth in Mac OS X? I'm still unable to get the bluetooth button working but I'm able to make the bluetooth device working via DSDT hacking. I'm still however unable to trigge…”

“I have not tried, but I will. I was just wondering if what it did (Once working) depended on the setting in Sys Prefs. I.e. whether it just sleeps, or if it gives you the shutdown/etc options. Once it working it will always shows you the op…”

“So the powerbutton fix, will make my power button do either sleep or shutdown/logout/resatart prompt? It depends on the setting in System Prefs is what you guys are saying? (Once enabled through dsdt) My power button currently does nothing!…”

“1) I actually need it 2) If it is working or not 3) it is dangerous, or when is it dangerous? … 1) You don't need it unless you need it. If everything is working properly, so you don't need it. DSDT override just for PC that have problem wi…”

“uman, Just got a reply from Superhai. Its look like Superhai will not continue AMW0 project. Is there anybody interested continuing his project? :'( Other topic… Sleep:- I found out that by deleting entry for EHCI devices in Acer Aspire 942…”

“I've put this on hold with yesterday's news that Apple is including SD card slots on the new macbooks. I'd like to see what they have done before proceeding. I only heard new iPhone is coming soon… iPhone 3G S . ^_^”

“I'm using the two? kexts that I found in iPC. I didn't really pay much attention to what they do. The artifacts are minor enough that I haven't bothered to track them down. I may try the DSDT approach, since I want to get better at DSDT mod…”

“Umm. The source of the AMW0 kext. Thanks. You can download the AMW0.kext & source code here:- supe rhai.com/xdarwin.html So, you're working on driver for SD card reader. That is interesting. Is there any chances that Texas Instrument SD car…”

“You can ignore the _INI code. That's just setting the OS version so that other methods can test it and do different logic. All you need to do is ensure that in the Device(ANW0) there isn't any Windows-specific logic going on. That way the d…”

“Sorry for late reply. I did not get any notification when somebody post a reply. You're right. This is what I found in my dsdt.dsl file:- Also this:- I have trying several days looking on how to solve the issue with DSDT modification but no…”

“FN+F1 don't return any code.. notify SLPB 0x80 will put the system to sleep. FN+F5,FN+F6 will return between 0x20 to 0x2F = 15 steps of brightness. FN+F8 return the next display code, LCD, EXT VGA or both spanning. AC power return 0x50 Batt…”

“Kizwan, I see you've fixed your Go 7300 in the DSDT. Can you please tell me how, because I have a black screen after wake on my DVI monitor. Mon Asus F3JC sleep and wake well, but I have to turn it off because of this black screen. I have a…”

“… So right now I'm installing on a separate hard drive )which I will replace as my main one) from a MacBook Pro. After that presumably succeeds, do I just need to install Chameleon to the EFI partition, and then any kexts I need before firs…”

“I presume it has to be a bootable partition? Yes. Current drive? I don't understand why I would install Chameleon to the old drive. Are you assuming that I would copy over the Leo installation to the new drive? I don't want to do that becau…”

“… One thing that drives me crazy, though, is that the vanilla retail scene is changing so rapidly. Are you aware of a recent guide that steps through a retail SL installation? I'd like to use Chameleon RC4, and I *think* I want a hidden EFI…”

“Thanks for trying the 10.6.2. I was hip deep in the ICH7 Datasheet and ACPI Programmers draft trying to verify if the shutdown/restart and sleep fixes for ICH9/10 will work. I'm hoping to install SL this week. But my Core 2 Duo CPU arrived,…”

“My laptop dies if I try hibernate too on 10.5.6. As to your question, the RTC fix is needed by some, but not all BIOSes for 10.6. Are you running SL? Did you have to put the RTC fix in your DSDT? … I had tried 10.6.0 & 10.6.1 before. I also…”

“According to BuildSmart (see: http://netkas.org/?p=114#comment-45114), if you have a length of 0x08 and alignment of 0x01, then your manufacturer's DSDT is following the ASL spec. So you shouldn't have to make a change. … My acer aspire 942…”

“I have a similar problem, although not exactly the same, on my Samsung N130 based hackintosh running SL X.6.3. The brightness control works fine, either through the control panel or via the Fn key, but the system does not "remember" my sett…”

“If the Acer is using AMW0 for this, then you may need to disable that part. I will look in AMW0 section then. Thanks. kizwan”

“Thank you uman for the dsdt. I see you apply fix for restart/shutdown. Before applying the fix, which one do you have problem, shutdown or restart or both? I have problem with restart & currently using openhaltrestart.kext to fix the issue.…”

“Can you post your dsdt? I'm trying to enable display dimming function on my acer, not for Mac OS X but for windows. Brightness hotkey is working perfectly in both OSes but display dimming when idle or when on battery is not available. I'm t…”

“@jinnggoff Try set to "MacBook5,1" in your SMBIOS kext. Also try it with your original & modified DSDT. I have Intel Core 2 Duo T5600 with speedstep working in Mac OS X with original DSDT (aside HDEF & GFX modification). Or you can set to a…”

“This is very easy fix. Open your dsdt.dsl file & go to line #534. Change it to:- And (CTRL, 0x0C, CTRL) Go to line # 4047, move up Name (T0_0, 0x00) so that it will be at the outside of the While loop code. And bios reset everytime I restar…”

“Great to hear your installation is successful. kizwan”

“I'm getting a boot0: error (but without the usual GPT message, then the testing one). Summary: … So yes, I did the mount_hfs of the EFI partition, installed boot0 with fdisk, installed boot1h to the bootsector of the EFI partition, copied b…”

“Thanks! I'll give this a try today. One last question: Does it make sense to update the WD drive to 10.6.2 on the MBP first, and then do the Chameleon hackbook mods? It does make sense. You can update to 10.6.2 on MBP if you want to. kizwan”

“… Is it? as simple as : 1. Connect the WD to my hackbook, and install Chameleon (RC4?) on it into the EFI partition. Correct. Install Chameleon 2 RC4 from leopard. From leopard, the WD disk will be your secondary HDD, so your target disk ( …”

“@candykane Thank you for sharing that information. At least some activity here.”
