WaldMeister Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Hi, How do i check what is preventing sleep by terminal? It has to be a process, DSDT and kexts are fine, fresh install. Had this problem before, edited DSDT until i went insane, was the Boom application Simply forgot how to check it, any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

fantomas Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 hi Try this. It might work for you. Go to Utilities in the Applications folder and open the "Terminal" app. Type "pmset -g" without the quotes and hit enter. If "sleep" has 0 next to it and the words "imposed by" ; The number next to the imposed by is the process ID causing the problem. Write that number down. Type "ps -e" and hit enter. This will list all running processes. Find the process imposing on the sleep mode and take appropriate action. more info here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaldMeister Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Yeah, missed that sorry. Closed all non default applications, even removed the dvd, i normally don't have any in the drive. Setting 0 to 1 did not work, do not even know if that would be the right command. pmset -g assertions gives nothing, perhaps i do need to look in to the dsdt again. Just don't get it, it worked before the new installation, and nothing in the kexts/dsdt has changed since then Btw, pmset -g assertions, was what i was looking for, thanks for the "push in the right direction" I'll close this topic, question has been answered. I'm an idiot, perhaps i should delete my kernel cache, damn.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
