ok i'm running mountain lion 10.8.2 on my
hp pavilion dv6 6154nr
intel i5 @ 2.30ghz
intel hd 3000 and amd radeon 6490m(disabled the amd)
insydeh20 bios f.1b
i've managed to get bluetooth,trackpad(with 2 finger scrolling),usb 2.0 and 3.0 working

but i'm stuck trying to get brightness control,audio,3 and 4 finger gestures, sleep mode(it does not sleep even when i close the lid) to work. I also read that ill have to change my wifi card for it to work, i have intel centrino wireless card. And my battery runs down super fast
im much of a newbie so i don't know much about dsdt and ssdt patches and theres no dsdt available for my laptop model. Is there anyway to fix these problems?
someone please help me.
