My machine originally came with Leopard which I thought ran flawlessly but ever since I upgraded to SL, I've had a lot of little problems creep up. I don't know if they're update related or simply SL at fault but it takes a while to put to sleep, a good 1-2 minutes before my machine goes into full hibernation and if that wasn't bad enough, when I wake it up, I lose my optical drive which means if I want to use it, I'll have to reboot. Not a problem since I don't use it that often but I also lose the ability to open up Disk Utility because it hangs trying to access the ATA channel the optical drive resides on.
Found a neat little program called Sleep Please which solves the insomnia problem my machine seems to have as it knocks it out instantly but still have the optical issue.
Is anyone having such problems? These problems are related to my 3,1 Mac Pro but everything works fine on my MBP. So frustrating.
This is a fresh install:
