Tony,

 

This would be awesome. Tony, let us know as soon as you can. Side note - Do you think going for the P55A-UD3 would be risky? Better to go for the P55 and then add SATA 3 / USB 3 later via a card?

 

Herb

 

Space-man007- that's great! I'm gonna take a look at it now- how did you do it? ;)

OMFG, I finally figured this {censored} out!!!

 

goldenaustin - When you said to Google Chameleon RC 3, I thought, WTF, I'll try a different version again. RC3 has large disk support - I think this is what did it! I can now boot off of my 1TB drive. I think I'm going to keep it in there and use it as my main drive and use the 1.5TB drive as a time machine backup.

 

Here's what I did:

 

Formatted my 1TB HD to have an 800GB partition for OSX (200GB for Windows).

 

Restored the OSX partition in Disk Utility using my working installation of SL as the source.

 

Installed Chameleon RC 3 (the instructions are in the Read Me file, but they leave out one step - you have to type "cd " then drag the i386 folder to the space, then hit enter. As well, for copying the boot file, where is says "sudo cp boot /" you need to put your info after that /. So for Tony's example, you'd write sudo cp boot /Volumes/Snow Leopard/. I'm sure a lot of people here know these steps, but some of us who are new to this might not).

 

Restarted - Boot worked perfectly!

 

Thanks so much to everyone here for their time and effort helping me out with this! I really appreciate it!

 

 

EDIT: I've just got two issues now:

 

1) My Geekbench score has dropped from 9000 to 6800 booting off my 1TB drive (the 9000 was off of my 100GB 5400 RPM drive installed with Tony's method). Any solutions to this?

EDIT: Problem solved! I reinstalled PC EFI, then only installed the boot0 file from RC 3. Awesome!!!

 

2) xBench is showing that my OpenGL score is lower on my MSI GTX 260 than my MBP's ATI x1600, which seems a bit odd to me.

 

3) Sleep doesn't work. Has anyone else been able to get it to work on a UD2 board?

 

That's good news, Joe! Always a great feeling to get passed the nagging road blocks.

YOU ARE A GOD! I can report it is working for me on a GA-P55-UD5 w/ an i7. I'm reading the _WAK code right now to see why. Nice job!!!

 

This code is different from mine after _WAK- testing now after i post this. Also did the DSDTSE sleep (works for some boards) fix.

 

    Method (_WAK, 1, NotSerialized)
   {
       Store (0xFF, DBG1)
       If (LEqual (Arg0, 0x03))
       {
           Store (0x8F, SCP)
       }

 

;)

Tony,

 

Not sure what you mean. Just different? Does it work for you?

To richx64, osxchat and anyone else with the ALC889a I've just got sound working on my GA P55 UD5. I've been messing around with it quite a bit and I'm pretty sure this is what did it. Download the AZALIA Audio Kext from http://www.kexts.com/view/156-azalia_audio.html and run the package. After reboot I had sound working. I am not sure if it maybe some combination of things because I have previously added the voodooHDA and the other HDAenabler and other kexts and nothing worked up until this AZALIA Kext.

Tony, has you checked all box by Energy Saver?

I dont know. I have a Core i5. The issues with after sleep restart has gone by checking the last box

in the Energy Saver by me.

To richx64, osxchat and anyone else with the ALC889a I've just got sound working on my GA P55 UD5. I've been messing around with it quite a bit and I'm pretty sure this is what did it. Download the AZALIA Audio Kext from http://www.kexts.com/view/156-azalia_audio.html and run the package. After reboot I had sound working. I am not sure if it maybe some combination of things because I have previously added the voodooHDA and the other HDAenabler and other kexts and nothing worked up until this AZALIA Kext.

 

Didn't work for me. Can you tell me exactly which kexts you installed and where? Thanks

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=192518

 

This is a DSDT from a GA-EP35-DS3L Motherboard- there has been a lot of work done on these boards. Glad it works, but the examples provided there should be applied to your own DSDT. I'll continue to test.

First I followed TonyMac's method in his installing snow leopard guide

  1. Open tonymacx86-snowleopard.
  2. Drag AppleHDA.kext from System – Library – Extensions into Kext Helper b7.
  3. Type your password and click EASY INSTALL.
  4. Close Kext Helper b7.
  5. Open Snow Leopard drive.
  6. Drag /Extra/Extensions folder onto Kext Utility application.
  7. Drag /System/Library/Extensions folder onto Kext Utility application.
  8. Open Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility
  9. Highlight Snow Leopard in the left column.
  10. Click Repair Permissions.
  11. Restart computer.

But that didn't work. I then installed voodooHDA through either Kext Helper b7 and Kext Utility or most likely both. That was all last week and then today I installed it. One thing I think is worth mentioning, have you checked in BIOS that your AZALIA is enabled? I'm a bit lost with where Kexts go or how to remove them so thats all i can tell you off the top of my head. I can give you more info if you like but try to give me some brief steps on what you want me to give you.

Hmm. I tried all that, no luck.

 

Ok I went back and used the DSDT files from Treky though he said his CPU was different. I was using the one from tonymacx86. Since I made the change and am using his files, AUDIO NOW WORKS! W00T!!!

 

I ran geekbench and am still getting over 6600 (2000MHz RAM = 200x14) so I don't think there's much/any of a performance drop from using those files on an i5.

 

I think that's the last hurtle. Maybe sleep too, but I never use it so...

 

Oh, wait. I still need to get About This Mac fixed...

 

Would someone who is running 10.6.2 please do the following:

Go into system > library > core services > loginwindow > show pakage contents (right click) > contents > Resources > English.lproj > AboutThisMac.strings

 

Zip AboutThisMac.strings and post it so I can download it? Apparently if you run osx86tools or aboutthismac.app it deletes this file, so I don't have a base to work from.

 

Thanks.

hey thanks. but i just tried AppleAzalia and AppleHDA (separately in System Extensions) with LegacyHDA and VoodooHDA (seperately in Extra Extensions) and with tonymacx86's dsdt and treky's dsdt's (what do i need dsdt.dsl for?) and i still cant get the audio working! i made sure Azalia is enabled in BIOS and used Kext Helper and Kext Utility.

 

the closest ive got is AppleHDA and LegacyHDA which shows available devices in sys profiler. i guess im just confused about what i do with the dsdt? do i use tony's or treky's? and what is dsdt.dsl for?

Hi there, with this DSDT file + netkas sleepenabler is sleep working on a Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3. :rolleyes:

Sry for my bad English, Im German.

dsdt.aml.zip

 

Fantastic! Sleep almost works for me now; UHCI ports all show as built-in now, and I can sleep my system no prob. Problem is, I get the classic system powers up with no USB and display not coming back on. Maybe it has something to do with my ATI Sapphire 4870HD; I have not added anything to my DSDT in regards to that (yet).

 

As well, I have sound working 100% for the ACL888 by using my own modified AppleHDA and HDAEnabler. I would like to patch my DSDT. Anyone have their's patched? Anyway, I am including my DSDT for you good folk to have a look at. It includes HPET fix so no more NullCPUPM.kext! Might be useful to some, maybe someone can help with my wake issues. Enjoy. :P

Sweet, thanks much! And thanks again for your audio help as it's now working.

 

i guess im just confused about what i do with the dsdt? do i use tony's or treky's? and what is dsdt.dsl for?

 

When I was using tony's it didn't work. When I used treky's it did. I put his dsdt.dsl in the location where it's at in his zip.

Tried it again- I can confirm that it works on UD2! I see that you took the file from this thread:

 

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=192518

 

This is a DSDT from a GA-EP35-DS3L Motherboard- there has been a lot of work done on these boards. Glad it works, but the examples provided there should be applied to your own DSDT. I'll continue to test.

Thanks for sharing the Masterchief modifications thread Space-man007, that's the way to go !

But I also confirm that we have quite some work to adapt the DSDT from this great thread.

 

One example in the first line of Space-man007 dsdt is the number of cpus: it is ok for i5 because i5 does not have hyperthreading, but for i7, it does not fit because my ssdt sees 8 cpus ...

 

Also, check the speedstep settings from this thread:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=181631

 

What I suggest (and what I just started to do as well) is to edit step by step only single features at a time.

Also, to get the correct SSDT cpu info, I just used DSDTSE 1.3.6 and extracted the SSDT table then adapted its content to my dsdt and incorporated it.

Now I should have all the exact speedstep info corresponding to my CPU.

 

Also, Space-man007; I believe you should check your UCHI modification i.e: the pci IDs and make sure they correspond to yours: for that to work 100%, you should check what lspci returns to you and set these IDs instead of the core2duo based MB adresses in the MasterChief example.

If some of you are not familiar with lspci, just grab the EvoToolX which is a GUI app that will grab the info for you ...

 

I'll report asap as well but it will take me some time to figure out what is really relevant for my GA-P55-UD3R mobo.

 

Great team work guys!

rekurser... just tried to send you a message to see if you use AIM to maybe talk a bit but it says you have messaging turned off. your setup is identical to what i'm looking to build (either a ud3r or a ud4p)... just trying to sort through all of this.

 

glad to see that people are still working to make forward progress with things. wish i could be of assistance but at this point not so much. will continue following the progress here though!

I'd like to extract my hardware specific DSDT file to try and implement some of the changes in the last few pages of this thread but if I remove tonymac's DSDT file, set the BIOS, and attempt to boot the system only goes as far as loading kernel and kext's and then hangs on the light blue screen. It never reaches the desktop.

 

Do you have any suggestions? What am I doing wrong?

dsdt.aml.zip

Sleepenabler is dont need.

 

It worked on my P55-UD2 too! Thanks!

There's no HDEF patch though and, as I'm using Tony's method for sound, I had to replace the HDEF section with the one from Tony's DSDT.

Usb ports are now recognized as built-in and "unknown SATA" as Intel SATA2.

I've tested hibernatemode 1, but it didn't wake up (Restart didn't work either), so I've changed it back to 0.

Now Sleep from Apple menu works perfect and Sleep from Energy Saver settings turns off monitor and disks (fans are still working). I think that's the default for the new iMacs, but I'm not sure.

Thanks again.
