That's too bad, I'm not sure then.

 

[Dewitts]

TA-DA! For anyone who does want this feature then i've found this.
Simple on/off click the icon in the menu bar and it does what it says in the tin!
There's also a switch in system preferences for it to automatically load on boot and whether you want it to sleep when the lid closes or not

 

[blueking]

Glad you got that!

 

[Dewitts]

I've now got a problem, due to windows not showing up on chimera i've had to repair the install which means it's overwritten chimera.
I've tried iBoot but it just runs in a restart loop and rBoot loads up with a black screen.
I've tried pointing it at the the org.chameleon.boot.plist in extra but it then boots with a grey screen.
Anyone know how I can boot in?
I did think of downloading the rBoot file, adding the graphics id to the boot.plist but I can't put it back into the .iso then ready for burning.

 

[blueking]

Have you used rBoot-LE? It allows it to function.

 

[Dewitts]

yes rBoot just boots up with a black screen.
I can hear skype start up and I can press the power button and enter to make it shut down so it's merely the fact the graphics device id is missing from the rBoot boot.plist

 

[blueking]

Ah right. You can boot with -s which opens a terminal.

Then you mount the hard drive with

/sbin/mount -uw /
then you can either copy an edited plist over, or using nano, edit the file.

 

[nikstar]

Are you trying to boot on battery power?
Just to be sure that is not due to low brightness.

This sounds similar too a problem I ran into when trying InsomniaT. I got out of it by plugging in a monitor in Hdmi AND one in VGA, then pressing fn f4 after it was done booting. Disabled the InsomniaT and then it worked Ok.
