Hey,

 

 

i testet with system Pw . I apply Sleep, Laptop go to sleep , but the Desktop is showing ( freeze ) . No Wake up , nothing, No Wlan no Ethernet. I thinking about a D520 Bios flash. The best way i think, a modified a08 dsdt.aml. I dont know ^^..... Im despair !

 

 

Edit : I testet again, now Wakeup works , but a lot of grafikBugs ^^hmpf !

Have you done the sleep steps from wiki...?

[schustah]

- using EDP 1.7

 

- n Preferences Panel > Security > General check

 

check:

 

* Use secure virtual memory

 

Now open up a Terminal, and run:

 

sudo pmset hibernatemode 0

 

sudo touch /var/vm/sleepimage

 

sudo rm /var/vm/sleepimage

 

 

Systempasswort is aktiv !

Model / Bios A01 A03 A05 A06 A09 A10 A13 A15 A17

 

D520 OK

 

 

edp 1.7 dont work under d520 A08 . Wlan, Lan and Sleep all crap ! 3 Ways to Fix. Mod dsdt.aml for A08 , Downgrade a08 to a05 or Bios Flash. right, wrong ??????

 

sry for my english

[Bronxteck]

Sleep works great on my D520.

 

Using EDP 1.7 with the DSDT.aml from BIOS A05 (supposedly. works great for me)

 

 

Sleep commands from wiki gave me sleep. (Any way to mod that white password screen?! That would be cool!) SleepEnabler gave me hibernate. (Edit) I'm finding that if I set a hot-corner to sleep the display and use InsomniaX to prevent sleep on lid close and sleep the display before I shut my lid, moving the trackpad will automatically wake the display back up.

 

BCM44xx works great in Snow Leopard for me. (LAN) And my WLAN works great after applying a few patches.

 

Losing tap-click on the trackpad after waking up from sleep is the only downside. I have to go into the trackpad prefpane and uncheck and recheck it for it to work again. Not deal breaking. More of a minor annoyance.
