First, I'm not sure where this is supposed to go, so feel free to move as necessary.

 

I managed a mostly successful install of Snow Leopard using iATKOS v7 on a DX58SO motherboard using a Gforce 9800 GTX+ card. I'm currently quad-booting with it, but that's a whole 'nother animal.

 

When I installed software updates, I was greeted with a kernel panic saying that SleepEnabler.kext was outdated. I removed it through my iATKOS install and was able to boot into Snow Leopard again, but I have to leave sleep disabled until I can find an up to date version of SleepEnabler.kext.

 

I found one linked here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=196466

 

I attempted to use OSX Tools to install the .kext, but the .kext entry is greyed out, no matter where I put it. My account appears to have read and write permissions on the file.

 

Any ideas on either:

 

a. Finding another up to date SleepEnabler.kext file.

 

b. Somehow making OSX Tools able to access the .kext file.

 

c. Where OSX Tools puts .kext files.

or

d. Another method of placing the .kext file.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated. =)

Confirmation that this method and these files work. Sleeps with (mostly) no problems on my current config. Doesn't seem to want to sleep with an iPod attached, but other than that, works fine.

 

Thank you everyone for all your hard work to get these machines functioning. Please keep up the good work.

Hello,

I'm not able to start a new thread so...

I have a Vostro 1310, and installed OSX retail with empire EFI in MBR 3. Partition. I'v got installed with this guide: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=215768

Everything works for me just sleep is a Problem.

My Notebook goes to Standby fine, and it wakes up fine, but after wakeup i'm not able to do anything cause the filer-rights are wrong. restart does not work, it does not start. i've got to boot again with empire efi an the retail disc to repair permissions of my snowleo-Partition. what's that. what goes wrong...

Thankyou for any Help and sorry for my bad english
