Heat problem when plugged in

[kampred]

Hi, I'm grateful to you all guys with this hackintosh thing. Cool!

 

I am running 10.4.10 (koolkal, intel combo update).

 

I have no complain up until now, some works, some don't, will be fixed sooner or later I believe.

 

The only problem I concern with is the heat, fan doesn't work when using AC adapter, but no problem when running on batteries. Well it always display battery icon even when it using AC adapter, so there must be something with the power management control. Tried some methods, didn't try them all since they keep sending to my back up files. Any of you guys have the same problem?

 

Info will be appreciated.

 

O btw, I don't know if I'm doing the right thing or not:

Whenever I had a crash with some patch, I didn't go to the terminal prior booting (cause I'm a dumb with text based command), so I just go to my XP, then to my osx86 disk, then copy the whole back up folder, paste them on the osx86 system. Restart. Presto, back to where I wanna be. For me it's easier than facing the command lines in black screen :-)

Lenovo 3000 G400

Dual Core 1.73s - Both doing their job

RAM 1Ghz - read 200Mhz, does it matter?

Intel Chipset 943 GML - Well, the machine is running.

Graphic 950 GMA - 64 Mb Flawless

Hardisk Sata 120Gb - no problem

Broadcom 4311 - Working, the softkey too, using it everyday for interneting ad hoc to the other XP lappy

Realtek High Definition Audio (ALC861VD) using AppleAzaliaAudio.kext

Sound out - Loud and clear

Sound in - hmm, not needed yet anyway

Bluetooth Dongle - Happy with it

Motorola Modem - err, never needed it since last year

Ethernet - nobody to hook up with.

as easy as plug out and in briefly the ac adaptor.

 

as for the sleep and wake fix in that posting, it doesn't work, i thought it was because my temperature reading application, but it wasn't. can't figure out why. and it kills my airport anyway. still hope there is a solution for the sleep function.

 

cheers

same problem and fix with my lappy -- howeverm I found that I couldn't primarily run leopard because if I booted up with no AC connected then the fan wouldn't run I'd have to plug in and unplug to activated the fan.

Anyone know if there is a kext that emulates the plugging in and unplugging of the cord, or even something that disallows leopard access to the fans so that the mobo has to control it?
