Patched DSDT for HP xw4600

Hi all,

Here is a patched DSDT.aml for a HP xw4600. Fixes USB, should fix sleep and some other issues.

I can't claim this as my work though, I found a site where someone in Finland got this machine working and he was nice enough to share

Have this working on my old HP..

Note on HP hardware for this machine:
Enable VT in the BIOS (its under Security for some reason)
Enable AHCI
Must use PS/2 keyboard and tab through installation until you can get multibeast installed with User DSDT.aml on the desktop. (then USB works more reliably)
Audio works with newest VoodooHDA
LAN not working, use PCI or PCI-Express NIC. LAN working with BCM5722D.kext
Has no onboard video, using Quadro FX 380 fully supported

I hope this helps someone else!

DSDT work with snowleopard?

DSDT works well with Lion 10.7.4 but I still have some issues, which hopefully somone could solve.

1. USB do not always work as exspected, two port are shutdown at the start. As you do not know which ones are not working after start you have to switch the connected parts as you need them.
2. shortly after shutdown the system restarts. I dont know why.
3. I do know if harddrive access is optimal since the system profiler show an unknown ahci controller.

Thanks for any answers or solutions. Probably the dsdt could further be optimized.

Have you find a solution?
