put the *.kext file on your desktop and use pcwiz's tool (kext installer button) and install it on osx partition and reboot.

Just installed on Lenovo X200 (Centrino 2) and finally works!

I work it on kext helper 0.7

Unzip and open Intel82566MM folder
copy the Intel82566.kext folder to kext helper 0.7

easy install

then a new ethernet is detected! As simple as that!

Flatfoot listem me.....download the last version of the kext in this link http://techresearchinfo.blogspot.com/  ..this is the dingguijin forum...download the package in the first post...the first link!!!!unzip
you will find many files but you only take the Intel82566MM.kext

1° - open the terminal and digit kextstat - enter...
to catch your system information: the version of com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily - com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily - com.apple.kpi.bsd - com.apple.kpi.iokit - com.apple.kpi.libkern - com.apple.kpi.mach.

2° - now open and scroll the Intel82566MM.kext /content/info.plist you'll see this:

       <key>OSBundleLibraries</key>
        <dict>
                <key>com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily</key>
                <string>1.6.0</string>
                <key>com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily</key>
                <string>2.4.1</string>
                <key>com.apple.kpi.bsd</key>
                <string>9.3.0</string>
                <key>com.apple.kpi.iokit</key>
                <string>9.3.0</string>
                <key>com.apple.kpi.libkern</key>
                <string>9.3.0</string>
                <key>com.apple.kpi.mach</key>
                <string>9.3.0</string>
        </dict>
.................change  your system information in the same voice..and save.

istall the Intel82566MM.kext in ....../system/library/extensions ....and you're done!

I am running a dell xps 410 with the ideneb 1.3.

I have the intel 82566dc - 2 and followed the instructions.

I changed the version numbrs in the file and my device id is listed and installed it with the kext installer but my ethernet does not seem to be detected still.

Any ideas?

I tried the latest and still no go.

LSPCI recognizes the card, but nothing shows in apple system profiler or in the network settings under network prefs.

Is there something else I need to do to make it active?  Is there another driver I need to install or some other setting I need to enable to make it become detected and operate?

Thanks,
Brian

I installed with kext helper and after a minute a pop up said it found a new network interface then the onbard Intel lan was working nice work!

[bmw000]

I gave up.

I went to bestbuy and got a new 10/100 pci nic from dynex (DX-E102) which has the realtek 8139 chipset.  Installed it and it works right out of the box with no special drivers or hacking. It cost me $17.99 plus tax.

Now I need to figure out how to change the screen resoluton as it is stuck at 1024x768.

Also need to try the sound drivers from another thread.

I may end up just buying a new cheap video card (fanless) and sound card, just to get it all going good.  All this integrated hardware seems just to incompatible.  I guess that's what I get for getting a dell.

[BlackCH]

It works on a 82562GT and 10.5.5 (editing the plist)!
Thanxs!

HP/Compaq 2710p Tablet - Success!

With latest release off your blog, installed with OSX86Tools and then all maintenance scripts run and a reboot, the driver came up great. Listed at 10Mb/sec only, but at least I get better speed than wifi only now Thanks a lot!

Help please. I followed the instructions and keep getting an error when placing the file into the extensions folder. The error reads, "The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/Intel82566MM.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update."

Anyone know whats wrong? I am using Jas OSx86 10.5.4 and I have an Intel 82566DC-2 Lan.

Try to make sure you have untar/unzip the package.

cd Intel82566MM.kext and Check is there a directory named "Content"?
