Almost There: Two Small Problems To Fix

[Esc]

Successfully built my first hack a couple of days ago. I need help with two remaining issues:

1) I can't get sleep to work. I installed with the DSDT for my motherboard - GA-Z68-UD3H-B3 (F3 BIOS). I saw the thread for the Sleep Enabler kexts but I thought that the new DSDTs were already patched for sleep. Does anyone else with a Gigabyte motherboard and recent DSDT have sleep working and if so what did you do to enable it?

2) My system profile shows my computer as a 'MacPro 3.1' my Boot ROM Version reads: MultiBeast.tonymacx86.com. While I appreciate all the fine work and help from the MultiBeast install, I would like to have something more Mac-like here.

Any suggestions welcome.

sleep enabler kext is probably your best bet.

In multibeast under custom you can make your computer think its a different kind of mac.

Thanks for the feedback. I have partial energy saving features. My screensaver works and when I resume my ethernet takes a few seconds to reconnect. It reconnects on it's own, so I think I'm getting S1 even though my bios is set for S3. My fans don't shut down though.

My system profile shows MacPro 3.1 and I think that's correct for an i5 2500k. I just want to clean everything up before I update to Lion.

Sound is working but my 'mic' input is dead. I have a Sans Amp PSI pre amp feeding my guitar into the mic input. This isn't picking anything up right now. I wonder if I need different sound drivers. :?

To change your boot ROM version, you can use a free tool called Lizard (Google darwin86 lizard) and once you have that, go to "smbios" options, and you can change both the "MacPro 3,1" and the "Multibeast.tonymacx86.com" to default.
