Thanks for the offer of assist, FatShenanigans!
As some of you know, last weekend I threw down a grand and got myself an Asus G60Vx "Republic of Gamers" laptop - C2D P8400, 4Gb RAM, GTX 360M 1Gb, 16" screen, etc. I bought this with the expectation of getting all the important bits working, with the exception of the WiFi (Intel 5100). Just for the record, I bought this for the price-to-power ratio, not because I'm a rabid gamer. I'm delving into Mac/iPhone/iPad coding, actually.
Anyway.
So far, so good. I've been editing the DSDT for a week now, and its fairly stable. VoodooHDA still occasionally crashes at startup (was very frequent until I nuked AppleHDA.kext), but everything else is good.
What is NOT good, is that sleep doesn't work. Well, it does sleep, it just doesn't wake up! The power button works fine, USB devices are all recognized as internal, ditto with SATA.
At the moment, closing the lid merely shuts off the screen. The machine is still active... I've commented out that particular hack for the time being, so it's merely a glorified screen saver.
Anyway. If I activate sleep (whether via the apple menu or the powerbutton menu), the computer spins down as expected. If I then press the power button or any button on the keyboard, the lights come on, I hear the DVD drive activating... then nothing. No reaction from anything. Pressing the power button followed by S or R does nothing.
That's the priority. Beyond that, any assistance regarding speedstep (which I don't understand at all yet, but realize the importance of), proper power management, and injecting ALC663 (using VoodooHDA) or the ethernet (EthernetBuiltin, AsereBLN booter) would be much appreciated.
Plus, although it works fine with regards to QE/CI, I've a suspicion my gfx entry (VGA) is wrong, as this is a laptop with a panel, VGA and HDMI out, not a desktop with two DVI outs. Help in that area would be great, too.
Attached are the original DSDT, my current, commented DSDT, a system profiler export, and a saved ioreg from ioregistryexplorer.
If you need anything else, shout.
