Problems Lion on Asus Rampage III Extreme

[lucke77]

I've installed Lion 10.7.1 on RIIIE.

Works:

Sound - AppleHDA (ALC889) binary patched

Videos - (2 Asus GTX 470 in SLI) EFI inject. SLI is supported by Lion??

Network OK, only if... after waking up the LED on the router's LAN network from green to yellow, 1GB to 100MB, the only way to restore it is to reboot.

DVDR: PlextorPX880SA, Works but sometimes, (only without inserted DVD/CD) seems to turn on the burner and makes "funny noises ..." but it works. Maybe not 100% compatible ...?

Unresolved issues:

My ICH10 is seen as ICH8, The two pairs of disks in raid0 are seen as external. How to fix?

Sleep, do not go to sleep, or better, after a couple of seconds wakes up alone.

I run: grep Wake / var / log / kernel.log

Mac-Pro-to-Luke: Luke ~ $ grep Wake / var / log / kernel.log
Dec 5 02:53:51 Mac-Pro-of-Luke kernel [0]: Wake reason: EHC2
Dec 5 03:19:32 Mac-Pro-of-Luke kernel [0]: Wake reason: EHC2
Dec 5 03:20:55 Mac-Pro-of-Luke kernel [0]: Wake reason: EHC2

Then I followed this guide: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=155345&view=findpost&p=1533492

My unmodified EHC2 in DSDT:

Device (EHC2)
           {
               Name (_ADR, 0x001A0007)
               Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
               {
                   Store (Package (0x07)
                       {
                           "AAPL,current-available", 
                           0x05DC, 
                           "AAPL,current-extra", 
                           0x04B0, 
                           "AAPL,current-in-sleep", 
                           0x09C4, 
                           Buffer (One)
                           {
                               0x00
                           }
                       }, Local0)
                   DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
                   Return (Local0)
               }

               Method (_PRW, 0, NotSerialized)
               {
                   Return (GPRW (0x0D, 0x04))
               }
           }

 

I deleted the PSW method, but nothing. Try this? :

If the system goes to sleep and wakes immediately, look for "Wake reason" in kernel log and edit method _PSW or remove _PRW from that device in DSDT.

I take this discussion after several months because I could not fix the sleep. I updated to 10.7.3 and I can no longer issue the command: grep Wake / var / log / kernel.log.

The problem of lan as explained in my first post, continues to be ...

Ideas, Hint ...

[Cassio]

Command must be

grep Wake /var/log/kernel.log

without all those spaces.

[lucke77]

@Cassio, After command:

 

Last login: Tue Mar  6 23:32:09 on console
Mac-Pro-di-L:~ l$ grep Wake /var/log/kernel.log
Binary file /var/log/kernel.log matches
Mac-Pro-di-L:~ l$ 

 

???Hint???

[Cassio]

Open file with text editor and search for Wake.

Anyway, I guess it will be still the EHC2 which is causing the wake, so remove _PRW from it.

[lucke77]

Ok Cassio Thx, I Solved removing _PRW method.

...the problem now are two:

LAN, this is the message of console after wake:

kernel: Intel82566MM info: Link is Up 100 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: None

from 100Mbps to 1000Mbps

Auto Sleep not go...

[lucke77]

For Auto sleep i solved with a your old post:

[Cassio]

Try AppleIntelE1000e

http://sourceforge.net/projects/osx86drivers/

[lucke77]

I deleted: Intel82566MM.kext from IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/Plugins

I installed: AppleIntelE1000e.kext, Lion boot ok and lan is ok but now won't sleep...

system wake immediatly but the screen remains black...

this version of AppleIntelE1000e.kext are: 1.9.5, try an old version... or is a DSDT problem...?

[Cassio]

If sleep works with the other kext, it's probably a kext problem.
