display sleep not working on inspiron 1525 with snow leopard 10.6.2

[pyrates]

I just installed a new copy of snow leopard 10.6.2 using Hazard's Snow Leopard 10.6.2 dvd booting from a usb thumb drive. I can't seem to get the display to sleep. This is needed as the X3100 kext has a bug where it puts the display to sleep, hence I can't ever get it booted with the X3100 kext's loaded. Here are the steps I took:

 

1. Installed with these options:

 

Mac OS X Update:

 

Mac OS X 10.6.1 Update

Mac OS X 10.6.2 Update Combo

 

Boot Loaders:

 

Chameleon RC3 PCEFI 10.5

 

Laptop:

 

AppleACPIBatteryManager

VoodooBattery

VoodooMonitor

VoodooPower

VoodooPS2Trackpad

 

System Support:

 

AHCI SATA Fix Extra/Extensions

LegacyAppleRTC

IOATAFamily Fix

SMBIOSResolver

QuickTime 7

 

2. Boot with the option -v arch=i386 -s

3. Created a /backup1062 directory and copied the X3100 kext's then removed them.

# mkdir -p /backup1062

# cp -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelGMAX3100* /backup1062/

# rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelGMAX3100*

# sync

# reboot

4. Booted into Snow Leopard and then opened up the boot partition and went into DSDT Patcher and ran that with new hpet and install set to the boot partition and OS type is darwin/os x.

5. Before I reboot I must remove the LegacyAppleRTC.kext

# sudo cp -rf /System/Library/Extensions/LegacyAppleRTC.kext /backup1062/

# sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/LegacyAppleRTC.kext

6. Reboot

7. Upon reboot you are now booting into 64-bit mode, if it fails try again. This crashes once in a while.

8. Go to expose and spaces and enable the bottom left corner to sleep the display.

9. Once that's done, drag the mouse cursor down to that corner and notice how it doesn't work.

 

Anyone know how to get it to work?
