I've got this ASUS k53e laptop working fairly well on Lion 10.7.2. Only things I haven't tried to get working is HDMI audio, USB 3.0, keyboard shortcuts only partially work for brightness etc., SSDT [gunna try soon].
-Got Wifi working by swapping out the Intel Centrino N 1030 wifi/BT combo...
I got the audio working natively on my ASUS k53E with these patched APPLEHDA and HDAENABLER kexts. Got tired of the Voodoo solution as it resulted in too many KP's and I didn't feel like getting external sound solution.
