This may come as great disappointment to some, however because I can only test on a MacBookPro (2011) I can not support other platforms fully and this unfortunately means development for the MacBookAir is not possible.
This being said, maybe some code fix will magically fix the MacBookAirs, and if anyone wants the Insomnia code I will email them said code if they have a MacBookAir and are happy to debug it for me.
However as a last resort, if some people are willing to get together to fund raise $800AUD to buy a MacBookAir I will fill in the rest so I can have the hardware to debug on etc.
On a good note, development has continued for InsomniaX 2.1 however implementation of some features have me concerned as trying to make some things simpler may have made it even more confusing… But I do have a new version coming

After the long years of waiting, I give you a final update to InsomniaX.
Some may regard this release as a backwards step but in many ways its a step forward, as the original version had many work arounds added for various reasons as well as other bloat that was no longer maintained. But in this version I aimed to build only for OSX Lion which also means its only built for the latest Macs (anything with an Intel 64bit processor).
Whilst limited testing has been conducted, please once again use at your own risk and support may not be provided due …

Alright ALRIGHT!!! I’ve come out of retirement for a bit and built the Insomnia_r6.kext file for 64bit machines!
This kext is only for 10.6 and Intel 32/64bit, it has been tested on a MacBookPro 15″ i7 QC 2.0Ghz and that is all. SO PLEASE PROCEED WITH CAUTION!!!
If enough support / donations are received I may look into recompiling all of InsomniaX but no promises.
Download
Installation:
Quit InsomniaX
Delete ~/Library/Application Support/InsomniaX/
Open the contents of InsomniaX.app (Right Click > Show Contents)
Goto Contents / Resources
Delete Insomnia_r6.kext
Download and extract the new Insomnia_r6.kext
Copy the new Insomnia_r6.kext into /Applications/InsomniaX.app/Contents/Resources/
Open InsomniaX
See how it goes!
