Hello All,

I have a (almost) completely working 10.6.1 install, but unfortunately I'm having trouble getting my computer to sleep and wake properly.

Here are my stats:

ga-965p-ds3 rev 2.0
8800gts 640mb
usb keyboard and mouse

currently running in 64 bit mode with the following kexts loaded from /efi/extra unless otherwise noted:
fakesmc
ioahciblockstorageinjector
ionetworkingfamily
nullcpupowermanagement
openhaltrestart
sleepenabler (in s/l/e)

I've patched DSDT with CMOS Reset fix, EHCI/USB Built-in Fix, GTP Method, WAK fix, but this hasn't cured my inability to sleep my computer. I've also attached a text file of my DSDT for viewing.

When hitting the menu option for sleep, my display turns off, hard drives go to sleep, but the fans and whatnot stay on. Moving the mouse, hitting keys on the keyboard, using the power button, etc. does nothing to wake the machine. I have to manually force the computer to shut off.

Does anyone have any solutions to enabling sleep on this 965p-ds3? It worked great in 10.5.7 and 8...

Also, does anyone know the specifics for DSDT patching on this motherboard for the alc888 sound?

Thanks for any help that you may be able to offer!

Thought I'd give an update on some other things that I've tried

I've read up on pmset and tried changing my hibernate mode to 3, as it was set to 0. Neither mode allowed sleep to function.

Also, my bios setting is it to mode 3 (suspend to ram)

Anyone have any ideas? Solutions that you found to be functional?

Hello deviantosx,
i had the same problem with a P5B-VM DO and i was able to solve it. Compare your dsdt with another
created in Windows or Linux. I found two main differences. At least I don't use a patched dsdt, because
the RTC (RTC0) entry for length was correct (CMOS reset bug). In detail:

Creating dsdt in Windows :
(Install and) Start Lavalys Everest, right click the status bar, chose "ACPI Tool" and click "Save DSDT".

Creating dsdt in Linux:
Boot Ubuntu Live CD, open Terminal and enter:


Decompile the dsdt and compare it with the patched one. My main differences:

Original Windows/Linux RTC/RTC0 entry:



DSDT Patcher RTC/RTC0 entry:



Original Windows/Linux HPET entry:



DSDT Patcher HPET entry:



I didn't test wether the RTC or HPET entry is responsible, nor why they are necessary ... I have to check.

Thanks for your reply and help! However, this fix did not enable my computer to wake from sleep. My HPET already contained the IRQ lines, and adding the new line to the RTC did not fix anything. Also, I tried patching the dsdt for my power button to see if it could wake my computer to sleep. after checking the checkbox for "Allow power button to put computer to sleep," the power button would indeed put the computer to sleep. Unfortunately, it would not wake the computer up. It seems as though there is some kind of an error happening where my computer sleeps just fine... but can't be woken up for some reason...

Any other ideas or suggestions?

Should/could I try using vanilla Appleintelcpupowermanagement? I'm not worried about temps as much because I have a great cpu cooler... When I do try to use the vanilla kext without any disabler or nullcpupowermanagement, I get a "no hpets available" kernel panic. Any way to fix this?

Also, perhaps disabler.kext is not actually running on my computer right now? It doesn't show up in System Profiler/Extensions even though I have it installed correctly...

Here is a terminal readout of my boot log:

I finally got sleep to work successfully on my pc using Innerz's DSDT from this thread:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...p;#entry1251906

Already contains necessary DSDT injections for Lan, GFX (though you need to edit for your particular card), ALC888 Sound, Sleep, CMOS Fix, etc.

So Excited!!!

The only remaining problem is that my computer must be woken up with the power button, rather than just moving the mouse or hitting the keyboard. Anyone know how to fix this?

Final Update:

Can now wake from USB keyboard or mouse. Just had to edit USB listings in DSDT.

Change this:

Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
{
0x03,
One

To this:

Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
{
0x03,
0x03


Do this for all USB listings, and you'll be golden!

Hi. I'm running 10.6.2. on the same motherboard but mine is revision 1.0. How did you get your sound to work (5.1)? My sound chip is an ALC883. Thanks in advance. Gbu.

Bro may I know what other KEXTs are you using? I have the same 965P DS3 Board as you. Now I have a major Problem. I've come to the point of post installation. I now can boot from my harddisk and not from the usb. Then I transfered the remaining KEXTS from the link u gave. And My whole system got kp. Now I cant do anything to go back. Wad should I do?

I have 965P DS3 rev 2.0
