Etoile Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Hi, My hackintosh is running retail leopard 10.5.8. Almost everything working fine except shutdown. So I searched a couple of websites and found some tips. Most of them suggested to choose "Restart automatically after a power failure" to work shutdown properly but I can't find this option in my system. Any idea???

ddogg777 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 mine doesnt have it either, heck it doesn't even have the options tab. I just installed SL and it still doesn't sleep. I'm starting to wonder if it's my 1.5 gb/s barracuda drive that is the culprit or perhaps because I am using two optical sata dvd drives, one being a bluray drive.

sashabe Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Use this: sudo pmset autorestart 1 But it had no effect to my installation, only i've got restart instead of proper shutdown.

vilpostus Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 "Restart automatically after a power failure" It's a BIOS option.

vilpostus Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I see... Thanks for the info! Maybe it is some how related to ...PowerManagment.kext?

Beerkex'd Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 AppleLPC.kext must be loaded on your system for the 'Automatically Restart' setting to show in the Energy Saver prefs. Run LSPCI to see the device and vendor ID of your LPC device, then edit info.plist in AppleLPC.kext to include it. Or you can patch the LPC device in your DSDT with a compatible device ID using the method outlined by zhell here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=168014 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/181160-there-is-no-restart-automatically-after-a-power-failure-option-in-my-hackintosh/#findComment-1256326 Share on other sites More sharing options...
