Foxic Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Hi, I have a build using an EX58-UD5 and 10.7.2. I have a strange issue involving chameleon 2.1 and sleep. When booting, if I leave chameleon to timeout and auto-select my OS X drive: Auto-sleep doesn't shut the fans dow and you can't wake it. The screen just stays black. Manual sleep and wake work fine If I interrupt the boot process to stop the timeout, then press enter: Auto sleep works and will wake up fine Manual sleep and wake work fine If I put the computer to sleep for a few minutes then wake it, all is ok. If I leave it overnight, often I will wake the computer and the display will not wake. Sometimes, once the display has gone to sleep (without the pc going to sleep) the screen will refuse to wake. So I tried booting with darkwake=no at chameleon. The computer now wakes every time and auto sleep has begun to work, the screen goes to sleep after 30 mins and the computer sleeps after an hour, as per energy saver preferences. So, I added darkwake=no to the kernel flags section in my org.chameleon.boot.plist. Rebooted and not I have my sleep issues again and again auto sleep refuses to work. I ran kext utility (it prints out your boot flags at the top) and darkwake=no appears in the list. I rebooted again and at chameleon entered darkwake=no, now everything works again. If I open kext utility, under boot flags it now says darkwake=no darkwake=no. So unless I stop the boot process, sleep doesn't behave properly. Can anyone think of a reason for this or could it be a problem with chameleon? I have npci=0x2000 under kernel flags too, and this seems to work ok, I don't think I can boot with out it, so it just seems to be an issue with darkwake. Thanks, and happy new year.

Hello, put this code in your terminal and look the pocess that prevent auto sleep: pmset -g assertions Osmar:~ osmardallas$ pmset -g assertions 24/10/11 09:51:54 BRST Assertion status system-wide: ChargeInhibit 0 PreventUserIdleDisplaySleep 0 PreventUserIdleSystemSleep 1 NoRealPowerSources_debug 0 CPUBoundAssertion 0 EnableIdleSleep 1 PreventSystemSleep 0 DisableInflow 0 DisableLowPowerBatteryWarnings 0 ExternalMedia 0 Listed by owning process: ( these two process prevent sleep ) pid 223: [0x0000012c000000df] PreventUserIdleSystemSleep named: "Nameless (via IOPMAssertionCreate)" pid 134: [0x0000012c00000086] PreventUserIdleSystemSleep named: "com.apple.audio.'AppleHDAEngineOutput:1B,2,1,3:3'.noidlesleep" Good Luck!!!!

Foxic Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 Right this gets weirder, please re-read my original post.

Foxic Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 Ok, it seems the problem was my org.chameleon.Boot.plist. I opened it up and noticed it was in alphabetical order, it would be very unlikely that I consciously did that. I remember seeing a post about corrupt boot.plists that were automatically put in alphabetical order, so I moved a few things around and re-saved it a few times and not the problem has gone. 1 existing thing that's bothering me is I have my Timeout set to 1 but it takes 5 seconds, the countdown bar moves down in chunks, 1 every second. If I set it to 2 it takes 10 seconds If I set it to 0 or 0.5 it forces the partition menu to display Is there any way I can speed this up?
