So here's the deal. I installed 10.6.3 on my Toshiba M115-S3154 today.

Ive got a GMA950 27a2 Graphics card with vanilla kexts and the efi boot string

I installed sleepenabler.kext to my /Extra/Extensions/ Folder, and I rebooted

I then proceeded to test out its ability to sleep.

It went to sleep just fine, and then when I closed the lid and opened it up again, it woke up, but the screen was black/sleeping. I tried hitting random keys, plugging in a monitor, etc to try and wake the display up. I resorted to doing a force shutdown, and when I tried to boot it back up again, I got a grayed out screen of what I was doing, and there was a little progress bar at the bottom. The bar filled up, and then it restarted.

How do I "wake" it back up?

So When OS X Sleeps, It takes the contents of your RAM, and dumps it into a file called "sleepimage" located in /Private/var/vm/ incase of power loss, so when you turn it back on, it restores that image back onto your ram. So I'm assuming because im running a hackintosh, and not a legit mac, the whole dumping of the ram didnt work out so well, so it would do that loading bar thing, and restart because it couldn't do it properly. Long story short, all I had to do was delete the "sleepimage" file
