So I got a dell from the school at which I work and since I'm not much on windows I followed this tutorial:
http://forum.osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/6118-osx-mavericks-install-on-dell-latitude-e6400/
And got it running mac OS 10.9.5. The tutorial doesn't cover doing anything about Power Management thus the laptop runs a bit hot, short on battery life, and doesn't resume from sleep (it actually doesn't go completely to sleep when you close the lid).
I got everything else working (even the Wifi though thats not perfect) thus this is the last thing I need to fix to get this to be a completely viable portable.
I was wondering what I'd have to do in order to actually fix the power management (I'm figuring a DSDT), and if installing things like a DSDT and SMBIOS are even possible from this part of the install.
