Hi Guys. After setting up my Z77 based desktop with Mavericks (which works great as such), I'm having a little bit of trouble setting up Mavericks on my M6600. Here's the situation:
Hardware: Dell M6600 with
- i7 2720M quad core CPU
- 16GB RAM
- 1920x1080 17" display
- Onboard (HD3000 right?) + Nvidia Quadro 3000M graphics (with Optimus...sigh)
- Rest is fairly standard.
The BIOS settings are typical, with AHCI enabled and Optimus disabled (which makes the Nvidia Quadro primary)
I created the Unibeast USB with "Laptop Support", and I can get the Mavericks installer to boot and show up on the laptop display with only "GraphicsEnabler=Yes". The install goes smoothly, and in Multibeast, I use a DSDT free setup with the following settings:
- A definition of "Macbook Pro 8,1"
- Patched AppleIntelCPUManagement
- 3rd party SATA
- The latest AppleIntele1000 driver
- PS/2 keyboard/trackpad/mouse
- Other typical settings, with GraphicsEnabler=Yes
Post install it boots from the local HDD just fine (the HDD is configured for a GPT partition), with GraphicsEnabler = Yes, and the onboard display works at native resolution with hardware aceleration using the Quadro 3000M. The keyboard, network, USB, display, Bluetooth all work. The trackpad and sound are currently not working, but I'm sure I just have to find the right kexts for that.
The CPU power management is working as such with the Patched AICPM as I can see the CPU switching between x8 and higher multipliers.
The big problem is that sleep is not working, and if that doesn't work, it's a big issue of course. When the system tries to go to sleep, the display goes dark, but the system stays on, and won't even wake up. I have to do a hard reset to get it back.
Any pointers on getting sleep to work? I've tried reading till I'm blue in the face with various methods, but I must be missing something obvious.
Help?
