ThinkPad X60 and sleep, broken, but expected behaviour if it wasn't?

[adrian.c]

I've installed JaS 10.4.8 SSE3 w/PPF1 & PPF2 plus the JaS 10.4.9 combo update.

 

Also running the powermanagement.bundle and Ralink USB wifi dongle drivers.

 

If I select sleep or shut the lid, the notebook goes to sleep properly, no problem. However, when I try to wake it up, it goes through the normal BIOS initialization procedure and then on the next screen where it would usually ask for a power-on password (which I've disabled) prints Error 192: Embedded Security Hardware Tamper Detected and quits.

 

I know sleep is a hard thing to get working, but under windows, when waking from sleep, the display reinitializes and the desktop comes back without having the BIOS screen come up.

 

Is this expected behaviour under OSX because of the difference in BIOS vs EFI, or this just busted sleep behaviour that might be fixed in the future?

 

I've also tried setting hibernatemode to 1 (suspend-to-disk), which also seems to write state and shut off, but upon power-on, OSX just boots up as normal, ignoring the fact that there was saved hibernation state.

The Dell's I use do exactly the same, but it's cured by changing power saving mode from S3 to S1 in bios.

 

It's also a common problem with thinkpads (i'm using a T60), but they don't seem to have any simular setting in bios
