yes, it works s3 on my buddies ga-g33m-s2l, which is the same as yours.

 

You need retail install though. Use munky EFI Partition, its great.

 

Look at the tutorials and you will find the way! If you have questions then PM me after reading the tutorials. The sound kexts for retail are in the legacy applehda tutorial thread (for your alc662)

 

Its really easy and all you need to do is either go to the apple store and get the disk or you can go download it from the piratebay.

 

same motherboard

installed with ideneb v1.6 10.5.8

sleep will not working?!?

 

also got problems with lan sharing :) realtekr1000 kext 1.8.1 kext

and finder chrash in other language

 

same motherboard with 8400gs 250 mb

installed with ideneb v1.6 10.5.8

so

installed with pacifist with a retail dmg (very slow install :D there is a better way)

used combo update 10.5.8

used osx86tools with basic patches and nVidia GeForce 8400 GS OpenGL Engine [EFI]

updated from apple

used RTGmac installer (network) but works out of the box

fixed audio with Azialaudio

evrything works fine but no sleep :(???

finder works good with other language

system tested with xbench (disk test! very slow! score 30 -50)

-- http://db.xbench.com/merge.xhtml?doc2=400918 (first is ideneb 10.5.8 compared is retail)

ok this will work:

Going to 10.5.8 with this board will break a couple things.

 

1. Sleep - you can use SleepEnabler.kext.

2. Auto sleep - there is an applescript that can fix this.

3. Sound, Apple made some changes and sound won't work anymore if your using the Legacy audio kexts in /Extra/Extensions

 

I've included a zip file that contains the sleep and sound issues for 10.5.8 and a fix for Auto Sleep and Bonjour. The Sound kexts, Bonjour and auto sleep scripts will work for 10.6 (Snow Leopard) but the rest are for 10.5.8 only.

 

also fixed the slow read and write with a better kext for the ICH7

 

now sleep WORKS!!! but got 2 problems more:

GetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35.

and IONetworkFamily.kext cannot repair permissions

 

 

i also think about to buy this board.

a also found a G31M-ES2L Type. Is this the same and do all the kext for the E2L work with it?

 

What kind of Powersupply did you use - maybe someon can give me a tipp for a silent one which is no to oversized.
