maroder Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 DO NOT TRY THIS! It broke (panic) my install with both mine and Stellarola's. Returned to 10.5.6 and all is good again. Ok, Thanks for the Info. There must be a way to get the stupid sleep to work again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brbo Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Here's the 10.5.5 kext to temporarily "fix" sleep. -Stell IOUSBFamily.kext.zip didn't work for me (didn't break anything, didn't fix anything). used 10.5.5 IOUSBFamily.kext and waking up from sleep still resulted in reboot. i tried the 10.5.5 kext with pc_efi_v9/dsdt.aml/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext and with chameleon 1.0.11/no dsdt.aml/no AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext... so if sleep works for some by reverting back to 10.5.5 IOUSBFamily.kext, i guess there has to be some other variable that the rest of us are missing.

dabla Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Unfortunately I no longer have my 10.5.5 kext I still have a backup of that kext, so if you want to try I can send it to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crencom Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I too am having the same issue. GA EP43 DS3L board w/ q6600. I did a little testing of my own. I reinstalled the retail dvd as normal, applied the basic kexts - decrypt etc. - and updated w/ combo 10.5.6. All updated fine. I then tried to sleep w/oout having added the efi strings for sound, video and ethernet. Nothing happens, the screen stays on no sleep. I then added efi for video - it sleeps, but awakens w/ reboot. So the implementation of the efi strings has something to do w/ it. Also, if I boot in safe mode sleep works. So a kext or efi is being loaded on normal boot that conflicts w/ sleep. My input so far.

MacManX Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 I can't speak for crencom but I have a 9600 GT in my system. I tried safe mode and sleep works there for me, although I haven't tried without EFI strings yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacManX Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 Aha! I'm at work again but I'll certainly give that box a go when I get home. Sounds like it'll do the trick Thanks to everyone who's been working on this issue. If it works for me then I'll update the first post so that people can find the solution quickly.

aschar1 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 ,and sleep works Many, many thanks Jan Bird. You made my day (GA EP 35DS4) I tried many different solutions (including dsdt patching) and different install methods. What a difference a simple checkbox can make. Hope the others without this option will find a solution very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crencom Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 "You wouldn't happen to have an nvidia graphics card would you?" -Stell Of course I do. 8800gts 320mb - Yes the above worked for me as well. I can't for the life of me figure out why it works. It's almost as if Apple made that button do the opposite just to mess w/ us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMF Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Check box worked for me. Gigabyte P35-DQ6. Symptom with 10.5.6 was shutdown instead of sleep and this fixed it. (Sleep was working fine with 10.5.5) SMF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
