Hi,

Dont want to sound like a spammer or anything, but i was wondering who here actually uses the following programs/kexts:

  • SleepLess (Shareware)
  • Insomnia (The Individual Kext)
  • InsomniaX (The GUI)

Also if anyone does use it please help bust the myth of the "dangers of clamshell mode" https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/313799/

PS. If you have any reviews/comments on the applications please post as i would like to see what people think *I dont care if you call InsomniaX bad as long as you give reasons:p*
 
I use InsomaniaX for a few days. And i use it when i watch movies or listen to music from my macbook with the lid closed. Havent had any problem with my macbook temperature.

The only thing with the program is that it doesent start up when the macbook reboots. Then i have to restart it from finder.

I probably shouldn't hijack my own thread with support :p however there is a preference to "Load on start" in the latest versions, so if that is ticked then you should then easily be able to put InsomniaX in your startup items for you user.

If that fails then remember there is a helpdesk ;)
 
This does look suspisiously like spam to me - and attempting to support? :p :p

I run insomniaX, its good. No probs with it. Love the little blue man, seriously cool :)
