I had another question. Were you able to change your LCD screen resolution to 1366x768?

Re: X220 Hackintosh (lion) on MBR partition dual boot Windows 7
Could you post a copy of your Keymap4Macbook preferences? I can't figure out how to map the Ampersand key correctly in order to install sleepwatcher.

Re: X220 Hackintosh (lion) on MBR partition dual boot Windows 7
I used a generic trackpoint kext that fixed the trackpoint problem. I had not downloaded the brightness slider and that was my only problem. Your dsdt fixes worked flawlessly.
