running0nempty77 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I get the dim screen too on my dv6835. On both my 10.5 and 10.6 installs, can't get the battery to show up either. I was thinking there might be something to do with the smbios? cuz my 10.5 uses the Macbook and the 10.6 shows up as MacPro. I did use leopard cache cleaner on my 10.5 drive and that worked for a couple of reboots, but as soon as I booted 10.6 it dims again. I thought it was something w/my video (Intel GMAX3100) which i can't get to work properly either.

userx Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Try this out. Worked for me. Remove VoodooBattery.kext. Install AppleACPIBatteryManager.kext with Kext Helper, and then fix permissions with Kext Utility. http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=513eb86...2db6fb9a8902bda Credit goes to ~Eureka. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=114105 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/182451-battery-and-dim-issues/#findComment-1241225 Share on other sites More sharing options...
