I have just done a fresh install of OS X. I just updated to 10.5.5 and installed Superhai's EHCISleepEnabler. I can't sleep. I know this is not a hardware issue since between fresh installs I installed Vista to test sleep. Vista sleeps/hibernates successfully. This must be an OS X issue. Is anyone going to post the information I asked for?

 

I cannot get sleep to work on 10.5.5 either (iDeneb 1.3) whereas on 10.5.4 (iDeneb 1.1) it worked fine. Well, it broke USB drives..

Hello All,

 

I come to the news...

 

From what i've done for installing my Xps 1530 hackintosh, i'm still having some problems that i really want to solve.

 

So i want to know if some of you had resolved following issues on Xps 1530 :

 

- Sound was installed from the last Sonotone package and works after the sleep trick.

- trackpad/internal keyboard/external mouse, jumps very often and i can see some logs that prooves it : kernel ApplePS2Mouse: Unexpected data from PS/2 controller.

- shutdown does not work. every thing looks stopped but the blue light from the front is powered. I know that there is, yet, no way to restart but i thought shutdown was working with the right AppleHDA kext. Apparently not...

 

Also, if some of you are good Developpers, here is a project you can help for giving us the way to use our internal network adapter : http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...pid=921433&

 

Thanks in advance for your answers.

 

Regards,

Josh.

Hi Overshoot,

I too have an XPS 1530.

 

Video: works with QE/CI using NVinject in S/L/E directory (8600m GT 256Mb) If i use EFI strings i lose QE/CI

Sound: works with AppleHDA in /S/L/E from Macgirl (I know she has an xps 1330 but apperently it is the same) Only one headphone jack works. Mic not tested yet

 

These 2 kext above are the only one placed in/S/L/E.

All the other kext (Superhai's, dsmos ApplePS2 etc..) are placed in the hidden EFI partition using Munky method.

Trying to be as vanilla as possible!!!

 

Shutdown: Same thing as you (Many people think is related to NVinject. If i move NVinject to the EFI partition i lose QE/CI)

Sleep: Works flawlessly

Trackpad: does jump only slightly when i come back from sleep but it starts working good in 1-2 minutes

WIFI: perfect (changed adapter)

 

If someone else has a solution for the remaining issues i am all ears.

So I had my first go at hackintoshing my M1330 (1.5GHz T5250 C2D) with iDeneb v1.3, and the bootloader hung early on at the IOACPI stage. From searching around I don't seem to be alone and there doesn't seem to be any solution yet (other than going to an older version).

 

Just posting it up here for anyone else struggling, hoping to find a solution soon!

I am on a m1330 trying to get sleep working. I have installed EHCISleepEnabler from superhai's site and edited IOUSBFamily.kext as stated in the readme but I am still getting this at boot.

I recently installed via boot132 and Chameleon on Hard Drive method (Here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=128274) which worked well.

 

I had been using iAtkos but wanted a more vanilla sys. I have finally gotten everything working again on the new boot132 method disc but I can't seem to get sleep working.

 

For some reason, I remember having to delete a kext when I successfully got it working on the iAtkos install but I cannot remember what I did. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

edit: sorry forgot to mention I am on 10.5.5

 

 

when trying to kextload the two kexts

bash-3.2# kextload /System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBFamily.kext/

kextload: loaded version 3.1.5 of module com.apple.iokit.IOUSBFamily differs from requested version 3.0.82

kextload: a different version of /System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBFamily.kext/, or of one of its dependencies, is already loaded

bash-3.2# kextload /System/Library/Extensions/EHCISleepEnabler.kext

kextload: cannot resolve dependencies for kernel extension /System/Library/Extensions/EHCISleepEnabler.kext

error loading extension /System/Library/Extensions/EHCISleepEnabler.kext

hi again all

 

i've been trying over and over to get my sound running with iatkos 2.0i - i used the PostInstaller - but instead of making it work, it made things worse - now i get an error message every time i boot.

 

also, i've discovered that reboot and shut down don't work, neither does sleep, that's why i've decided to go with a clean install of os x.

 

since the first time i did it i was in total darkness with the subject, i went along with whatever worked for me. but now i want to install the most well adjusted build that can work for my system - dell inspiron 1720, geforce 8600 gt - 256mb.

 

I would be eternally in debt to you if you could point me towards the best version and kernel, etc, that i can install on my laptop so that the basic functions will work: graphic, sound, wireless, lan, shut down, reboot, battery meter. And please try to be specific because, as i said, i stink at finding things on my own and the taste i've had of os x left me with wanting more :)

 

thanks again guys

Deleting ConfigData as detailed in post 15 of the thread: ( http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=837502 ) by hdas took care of the reboot problem in AppleHDA.kext on a XPS M1530. Now sound works consistently even after a reboot or shutdown. (Note: Clean reboot and shutdown still doesn't work, have a NV 8600 GT). Have Int. Speaker, Headphone jack and Mic jack working. Haven't tried to get internal mic working.

 

Computer Type: Laptop Dell XPS M1530

Mac OS X 10.5.5

Sound Card Vendor: Sigmatel

Sound Card Model: 9228

Vendor Id: 0x83847616

Working: Onboard Speakers / Headphones / Volume control on the laptop / Mic in jack

Internal Mic not working / not tried (Instructions available in the post linked above)

Used AppleHDA.kext from MacGirls's thread

 

Thanks macgirl and hdas.... and of course... Taruga

 

feckmunkeh.... what is the exact error message that you are getting?? I think I can help you if it has to do something with the AHCI.

Those work really great.

Internal speakers, Headphones (from first jack, switches automatically w/o need to switch sound output), Line Out (from second jack), Mic (external mic works, internal doesn't work).

 

Here is the modified version with fixed mute and mic boost.

I have been unable to get sleep working on my 1330 and cannot find any reason why. I just finished wiping my hard drive. I have decided to go back to Gentoo instead of Vista since I quite frankly can't stand Vista on this laptop. I have attached the iso that I used to install retail OS X on my 1330. I'll keep monitoring this thread for those who have questions. I'll also eventually update my tutorial thread for a retail install and 10.5.5 (I'm rather busy at the moment).

Hmm, thanks macgirl I had not seen that. I may get in touch with netkas and see if I can test his beta.

 

Eheh!

I'm happy to see that i helped a little bit the Hackintosh scene with this...

Hi everyone,

 

Problem : No wireless network recognized.

 

I have a Dell Vostro 1400. Now has dual boot iatkos v4i (10.5.4) and vista. I faced the same problem as mentioned in the original post. The built in wired Ethernet and wireless do not work. Bought myself a USB wirelesss WiFi adapter from Planex that used ZyDas1211 chipset but face some problem.

 

What I did.

 

1. I installed the kext provided by links from this thread.

2. After rebooting the system, I opened Preferences-Network and a new Ethernet adapter was found. I used DHCP with manual - add the necessary IP.

3. I started the ZyDas WLAN utility and scan for wireless access points. Unfortunately no access points are listed/recognized despite there were at least 3 around the office. It just stay empty even after leaving it running for a couple of hours. Thinking the installation was corrupted, I tried to reinstall the kext, even reinstall the OS again but to no avail.

4. Playing around, I tried using the ifconfig at terminal. It listed the loopback and "en0" for the new Ethernet. However, NO IP address is printed despite being configured using the Network Panel earlier.

5. Run the command ifconfig en0 192.168.1.101 netmask 255.255.255.0 to set the IP and press Refresh/Scan at the ZyDas WLAN utility. Wait a minute and Voila! it recognized all the wireless access points.

6. I connected to a wireless network, ping a computer - works.

7. My problem is I still cannot connect to internet since any changes I did at Network Panel DOES NOT have any effect. I need to configure the default gateway, the DNS, etc but I dont know any UNIX/Darwin command to do that. Appreciate any assistance.

 

Regards

Joe.

Hi Joe,

 

To add the default Gateway, just type :

 

#sudo route add -net 0.0.0.0 your_gateway_ip

 

To add the dns, edit the /etc/resolv.conf with "vi" as root by doing :

 

#sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf

 

and add the 2 next lines :

 

nameserver your_secondary_dns_ip

nameserver your_primary_dns_ip

 

Finished.

 

(Replace italic/underline words with the good ip address...)

 

I must say that you could use an old IONetworkingFamily kext to solve the Gui issue but that is my opinion.

 

Also, after executing those lines, you will probably need to reboot your system as Dns server are refreshed sometimes...

 

Good luck.

I just wanted to thank all the contributors to the forum.. you were all there with me last night when I battled my first OSX86 install on my Dell XPS M1530. Overall, it was a smooth ride. Still have to check a few things and get sound working, but looks great and is very snappy. The Dell Laptops Post-Installer was very helpful.

 

Main pitfall I ran into was an error I was encountering on boot (using -v) I was able to see the error, rather than just a circle with a line through it. "Still waiting for root device". To overcome this, I went into BIOS settings and changed hard drive from ACHI to SATA.

 

This evening it will be fine tuning things and making sure I can get sound working. Ran iATKOS v4.1i (10.5.4)

Hi,

 

I'm trying to install Retail Leopard onto my Dell XPS 1530 with the Boot 132 cd. It starts to load the Initrd.img and then stops halfway through the third line of dots. It flashes up something like " system conf file / preferences / systemconfiguration / com.apple.boot.plist not found

 

It flashes up really fast so this might not be 100% accurate......

 

This is strange as the boot disk works on my home machine just fine. I've tried every cd I can find on this forum and they all do the same thing. Can anyone help me please?

 

Thanks in advance......

I am back on OS X. I have decided to keep plugging along until I can get sleep to work.

 

This does not work on my machine. My internal speakers don't work. This seems to work properly on 1530s only.

Hi talisman, I'm not in at the moment but I'll get the error for you once I'm back later this evening...

 

Cheers

 

OK, the error is:

 

IOAPIC: Version 0x20 Vectors 0:23

 

Any help appreciated! (In the mean time I'm going to grab kalyway and try that too...:))
