Sleep Nightmares! DSDT Help please?

[kludgedean]

Thanks for checking out this thread, i'm hoping it'll attract some people that are familiar with messing with DSDT, as i've tried (for MONTHS) to nail this laptop in every aspect!. I've currently got

 

CPU both cores (worked OOB)

GeForce 8600M (GraphicsEnabler=yes, but also injection and EFI strings works but disallows sleep)

USB (Full speed)

Wifi (Dell 1390 card I've replaced the original with, detected as a native card)

Audio (Sigmatel STAC chipset with a recent VoodooHDA version)

Firewire (Pretty sure this is still working, it did when i tested it last using a Focusrite Sapphire audio interface)

 

everything working fine, apart from the dreaded sleep!.

 

 

Here is what I have in my /E/E/

 

AppleACPIPS2Nub (1.0.0d1 (show package contents info.plist)

ApplePS2Controller (version 2.0.0 Snow Leopard Pre-release)

OSXRestart (OSX Restart Solution 1.3)

SleepEnabler

VoodooBattery

VoodooHDA

 

I've tried various kexts, and kernel independant kexts (pmVersion=20), including installing in /S/L/E/ and also /E/E/

 

USB detected as USB Built-in (important so i've read ( http://apocolipse.com/?p=14 ) )

 

Also tried turning off any wifi etc from BIOS level, and still no joy. Only thing i can see, that stands out, that may be the problem, is the Serial-ATA (in system profiler) says Intel ICH8-M ACHI ?

 

Pretty much decided I may have to delve into the world of DSDT editing!

If anyone has any other suggestions, i'd be intrigued to try, I'm pretty much spent in ideas as to resolve this sleep issue (damned perfectionists!)

 

Footnotes: Made sure that NullCPUManagement is NOT running when trying to utilize SleepEnabler, and pmVersion=20 set, also tried removing AppleHPET too without success in sleeping

 

If needed later I can provide DSDT.aml and DSDT.dsl if needed
