I think the reboot/shutdown issue isn't isolated to just our model. I have this issue on multiple hackintoshes of varying makes and models. Someone mentioned in another post that it might be due to ML's new powernap feature. One thing I did notice is that 10.8.2 seems to improve shutdown/restart, though the problem is still there.

 

As for your sound issue, hopefully you've fixed it by now but if not, try deleting AppleHDA.kext from S/L/E and re-install VoodooHDA.kext using kext helper or kext utility.

 

DaFob,

Thanks a bunch,

Indeed 10.8.2 has improved things, but as you correctly stated, the problem is still there.

As for the sound issue, right on again, I have since fixed the issue and am now running it problem free.

Your guide and help in this thread has enabled me to run ML on my e6500

Many thanks to you and others who has made this possible.

Alright, after a week or so of using this I can post my findings.

 

1.) Everything works EXCEPT Sleep, not sure why. It won't even go to sleep for some reason that I need to look ingo.

2.) Shutdown\Restart doesn't work. It goes to a white screen, pressing the power button will take me to the login screen again.

3.) Every now and then my keyboard stops working, but only the keyboard.

 

Other than that I've had no problems. The only kext that isn't one you had is the kext for InsomniaX so I can close my screen without my laptop going to sleep, I've always found that annoying as fuck. I can't sleep even if I remove InsomniaX and it's kext. I'm fairly certain that my shutdown\restart and sleep issues are due to a DSDT issue of not being copied right or got skipped for some reason, when I get back home tomorrow I'll re-copy it (I would do it now but if anything goes wrong I have no backup method to fix it).

 

Edit:

Also, I noticed my processor is running at only 2.8 GHz rather than 2.93 GHz, any way to fix that?

Compgeke,

any luck with the reboot / shutdown issue?

I have the same problem on e6500

I aslo don't have any sound.

Thanks
