Anyone tried so far? I'll probably give it a shot tonight, but I'd be interested in hearing what I should expect.

I am running 10.5.8, Chameleon2-RC2 and voodoo2-alpha3 now. Update from 10.5.7 to 10.5.8 went without a problem. However, I looked on ketkas blog and followed his instruction for update prep. It was worth the time.

Updated to 10.5.8 with just minor problem, edited the Geforce.kext, NVDANV40Hal.kext and NVDAResman.kext for the right device id and everything is ok. A very old rig...P4 (socket 478) was able to triple boot with windows7 and ubuntu 9.04 with Chameleon 2.0-RC2, thanks to the chameleon team.
My apologies guys for posting here....

Does Sleep work with 10.5.8?

Updated to 10.5.8 with Software Update perfectly.
Only issue is sleep now forces a reboot on my system. But from reading about, sleep is a common problem.

@grako
I know you've put this bold to empahsise it, but can you confirm sleep definitely works for you on 10.5.8?
and your system specs and type of install, i.e. retail?
-
It's working fine for me also, except for GraphicsEnabler and ForceHPET.
Is GraphicsEnabler working for anyone on 10.5.8? I've got a 9600 GSO.

Thanks for your reply grako. However, sleep is now sorted in 10.5.8. by using DSDT and removing disabler.kext to let AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement run.
-
@ Blackosx
I have nearly the same MoBo as you. How did you manage to use the AppleIntelCPUPowermanagement.kext? If i try to load it, i get a kernelpanic immediately. I am using a fixed DSDT made by DSDT_Patcher. How does yours look like?

I have attached my DSDT.aml file here for you to look at. For reference I have put together a guide for building DSDT for the GA-EP45-DS3L using Koalala's ACPI Patcher on Insanely (showtopic=177497)
Hope this helps you. :)

Thanks a lot read your guide including your vanilla guide on insanely, i dont own a DS3L but i have a gigabyte board, may i know what to edit to get sleep working on 10.5.8?
Thanks ;)

@Spooky
You need to make a DSDT.aml file for you motherboard by using either Koalala's ACPI Patcher or fassl's DSDT Patcher (Search for the threads on insanely), then when you have one, add it to /Extra.
The second part to enable 10.5.8 sleep seems to be the AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext. It needs to be in your /System/Library/Extensions and left running. This normally causes a Kernel Panic, so most people would either remove it or use a Disabler.kext to disable it. A properly configured DSDT file with allow you to have this in /S/L/E without the use of a Disabler.
Hope this helps..

This will only work if your hackintosh is using an unmodified Apple kernel (AKA vanilla).
So don't try this if your system has an AMD or Pentium M/4/D CPU or any Celeron model based on those.

Hmm I noticed you guys are talking about enabling intelcpupowermanagment. I can enable this kext, but the problem is that it need AppleHPET enabled too. AppleHPET destroys USB 2.0 for me. If AppleHPET isnt enabled, I get a kernel panic. Is this the kernel panic that some people are mentioning?
-
Put AppleHPET.kext back in and try enabling the Chameleon RC2 HPET fix in com.apple.Boot.plist before rebooting.
Or patch the HPET in your DSDT. I think it does the same thing, not sure..
-
Hmm, does patching AppleHPET fix USB issues?
-
I have no idea.
But you just said that USB 2.0 breaks for you when AppleHPET.kext is loaded so obviously there's a connection.

Thanks for setting the record straight. I was talking about my setup and didn't think about others with different setups trying to follow it. :-[

Remember how powerful you are, you can kill 1000 n00b hackintosh installations with a single word!
After seeing all those threads from people who had installed Chameleon on real Macs I don't trust anyone to think for themselves anymore. ;D
-
lol.
You are absolutely right... :)
As the chinese say....
Once you pour the water out of the bucket it's hard to get it back in it.
-
Chiming in just to confirm that x.5.8 update (together with 2.0-RC2-r640) went as smooth as on my real macs. 5min job, absolutely no hassles (chameleon stuff on EFI remained untouched).
Thanks 2 the devs + everyone else putting time+efforts on this
