I have Lenovo z580 with nvidia gt 635m, is possible to install it with the nvidia fully operational? >.<

Does your laptop have nvidia only or both nvidia and intel?
 

As far as your question, you should read here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/laptop-compatibility/106791-laptop-compatibility.html

Also,

Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)

System: manufacturer/model
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
System: HP ProBook 4540s
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.

Lenovo z580 OSX 10.8.3: i5 3210m, 16gb, SSD 250gb, Intel HD 4000/GT 635m, BDRW, AR5B95 from amazon

My report:

Well, everything is fine, my battery stats are not showing (I dont care), my usb 3.0 are not working at 2.0 they are only working for mouse/keyboards, bluetooth/sd reader are not working, my trackpad are not clickable (I dont care either) and if I start a "restart" I get a kernelpanic at the boot, but if I shutdown then powerup boot's fine

No bright control and sleep are bugged idk why yet, but I think its not too hard too fix it

btw, no optimus support, no gt 635m :(

Battery status: http://www.tonymacx86.com/mavericks-laptop-support/116102-how-patch-dsdt-working-battery-status.html

my usb 3.0 are not working at 2.0 they are only working for mouse/keyboards,

Install GenericUSBXHCI.kext.

bluetooth


Some BT info here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/network/104850-guide-airport-pcie-half-mini-v2.html

/sd reader are not working,

Typical. If it is a Jmicron you might find drivers, otherwise VoodooSDHC.kext, but probably won't work (kext needs work).

my trackpad are not clickable (I dont care either)

What trackpad is in your laptop?

and if I start a "restart" I get a kernelpanic at the boot,

What is the KP?

No bright control

HD3000/HD4000 Brightness Fix:
DSDT Patches from here: https://github.com/RehabMan/Laptop-DSDT-Patch

Apply:
"Rename GFX0 to IGPU"
"Brightness Fix (HD3000/HD4000)"
- rename patch must be done first and to all DSDT/SSDT that contain references to GFX0 that you're including in your final SSDT set
- Brightness patch must be done to the DSDT or SSDT that contains the definition for Device GFX0 (search for 'Device (GFX0)'
- Place DSDT and SSDT (if necessary) into a place where the bootloader will load them. For Clover, EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched (DSDT.aml, SSDT-x.aml where 'x' is a number). For Chameleon, /Extra/ssdt.aml, /Exra/ssdt-1.aml, /Extra/ssdt-2.aml, etc.

Install: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-ACPI-Backlight

and sleep are bugged idk why yet

Native PM is a pre-req. See: http://www.tonymacx86.com/mavericks...nagement-sandy-bridge-ivy-bridge-laptops.html

btw, no optimus support, no gt 635m :(

Of course.
