laptop 10.5.2 leopard 9.2 kernel no sleep

[rschultz101]

had sleep working with 10.5.1 , and battery meter,...

after 10.5.2 and 9.2 kernel , no battery meter, and no sleep,

have not done , the graphics update, since my gma950 works,

and heard, some of the x3100 are even worse,...

 

so how do we get the battery meter and sleep back ?

oh, 9.2 was vanilla,...

 

note: looks like my previous powermanagment bundle is still in place,..

 

so what do I do now ?

I lost sleeping and wakening too in my machine.

 

Sleep and wake depends on kernel.

 

Fortunately, in root (/) there is old 9.1 kernel left. (tohkernel)

I use full updated (minus graphics) 10.5.2 system

with 9.1 kernel. It works well.

 

Usb automount is broken, but it depends on 10.5.2, not

older 9.1 kernel.

 

Now my machine sleeps and wakes well again.

 

-.-

 

Nasty and ugly way to replace the kernel:

 

Put the new kernel on the desktop. Rename the file to " mach_kernel "

Open terminal and type the following:

 

sudo -s

cp -R ~/desktop/mach_kernel /mach_kernel

diskutil repairPermissions /

exit

 

reboot your machine

 

-.-

 

Or... boot machine with the installing dvd

In terminal:

 

cd /Volumes/Yours'BootDisk

ls -la

 

Old or new kernel should be in root level now.

New kernel: Colloquy ; irc.osx86.hu ; #10.5

(= program, irc server, irc room)

 

cp mach_kernel mach_kernel_bak (copy working kernel in save and in new name)

cp -f mach_toh mach_kernel     (copy kernel name "mach_toh" over working kernel mach_kernel)

 

(working kernel name is "mach_kernel" and this name is

giving for it in com.apple.boot.plist file)

 

chown root:wheel mach_kernel*    (fix new workin kernel rightness)

chmod 644 mach_kernel*           (...and userlevel to right.)

 

Reboot machine.

vanilla did not work, sleep/wake,...

 

did try, without kernel update first,... did not work,

F8 vanilla cpus=1 -> did not work 9.1

that's what I used before on my laptop, for sleep/wake, and cpus=1 for saving battery,

battery meter worked too,...

 

also did an xbench, to see gma950 results, quarz 138 opengl 220 ,

for most parts the 10.5.2 9.2 gives better and smoother cpu utilisation,

have not loaded the graphics update yet, since I don't know if it will work smooth,

though, would like to, heard the graphics update has an updated framebuffer, and opengl library,

that is now SMP, aka using booth cores, more sufficiently ,...

also heard, X3100 is still a lot worse than 950, due drivers,...

 

what files to update replace, for battery meter and sleep, -> laptop ?

Battery meter => /System/Library/SystemConfiguration/PowerManagement.bundle

[rschultz101]

reinstalled powermanagment bundle

 

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=80425

 

copied applesmbios.kext and acpiplatform

 

sleep does not work,

speedstep does nothing, (9.2 kernel, 9.1 vanilla)

 

 

is there a tool to display cpu speed ?

So replacing the kernel didn't work for me either. this worked for you, tle88?
