Snow Leopard on a m1730

Hello,

 

I'm really close to completing a good installation of snow leopard on my Dell m1730. Here are the specifications on my laptop:

 

Intel Core 2 Duo Extreme x9000

9800m gt's in SLi

4 gig's of ram

BCM5751 ethernet

Dell 2100 wifi

 

I can get most of the things I need to work (ethernet and video) up to a usable point.

 

The only things that I would like are the ability to sleep, wake, shutdown and restart. Wifi would be nice as well, but not completely necessary. All of this works in 32 bit mode. When I try to get the 64 bit mode, nothing works... not a big deal, but any hints on this?

 

My main question, is there a standard way of enabling sleep, wake, shutdown and restart other than using kext's? If you're going to tell me to use the DSDT.aml method, is there a way to tell if the system is actually loading the DSDT.aml correctly? I've tried and still can't seem to get anything working.

 

Any other hints would be great!

 

Thanks!
