Hey tony!! Thank you very much! I already did a Hack with a MSI GD65,
and everything great! i did my donation too :):):)
And now I began with this mini mac pro, and it's great!! But:
I 'm happy just starting with iboot, and the os is on HD.
Everything works fine and SNLeoparg works really OK, audio and
lan, everyting.
I conneted BY HDMI to get more resolution, but only 1024....
Any Idea? I Used DTST, and nothing...
I don't need Lion... WHat should I do?
Thanks in advance..

I built a similar machine (same mainboard) and I can't get sleep to work.

What I did/tried so far:
Took the SSD (with Lion installed) from my MBP, booted Lion with rBoot.
Used MultiBeast UserDSDT with the DSDT-GA-H67N-USB3-B3-F7-HDMI.aml from the database.
Installed the CustoMac Mini Tuneup Kit.

When I initiate Sleep, only the screen goes black, hard disks and fans keep spinning. I can't wake it up again (neither with one time, nor with two times pressing the power button).

What now?


Model Identifier: Macmini5,1
Intel Core i5-2500K
Gigabyte GA-H67N-USB3-B3 F7
2x4 GB Ram
OCZ Vertex 2 (1st generation, firmware updated to current version) as boot drive.
Two more SATA hard disks, no optical drive.
No graphics card beside the HD3000.


EDIT: I don't really need sleep, I want hibernate / suspend to disk. But I guess there is no way to get it working without sleep working.

Use standard settings in system settings @ power saving

Except for the two timers everything is set to default there. But how could that possibly help?

I experienced (also on original Mac's) that ALL has set to default (also timers!).
Else it is sometimes very strange if the machine doesn't sleep....
 
I just reset all energy saving settings (including the timers) to default. Didn't help.

I was stuck at 1024 until I was able to boot from HD. Seems the iboot won't load the appropriate drivers for hi-res.
