Zaxboi Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Quick question... Have iATKOS v1.0i going on my ACER 3680 using the non-EFI kernel. Despite setting the sleep and display off params to NEVER in the "Power Save" system settings, the unit STILL insists on going into a sleep mode after a certain duration of time and what's worse is that it can't recover from it (powers button brings the power back but no display or any other kind of activity occurs). Likely the ACPI isn't completely compatible and that's fine but why if I set the Power Save timeouts to NEVER does it STILL insist on going to sleep?

asstastic Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Did you turn sleep off for both battery and power adapter modes? I have an aspire running with EFI and I haven't run into the problem yet. I use display sleep but it hasn't given me any problems so I haven't bothered to turn it off.

I have an aspire running with EFI and I haven't run into the problem yet. I use display sleep but it hasn't given me any problems so I haven't bothered to turn it off. Of course and of course I am running on the A/C adapter. I am running the non-EFI kernel (unfortunately- but I can't get the damned Cardbus adapter to work under the EFI kernel and this is the only way I can get any WiFi going on the unit as Leopard refuses to play with any of the mini-PCIe cards I have tried).

I managed to get mini-PCIe WiFi working with a Broadcom 4311 I ordered from eBay. Were any of your cards known to be OS X compatible?
