Sviat Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I have an Nforce 500 chipset on my M2N-E SLIIt has an "nVIDIA nForce4 SLI (CK8-04) - LAN Controller (PHY: Attansic PHY) PCI" But forcedeth doesn't work here is my log: Edit: I tried nockd now same problem i also find that the other terminal has log so here is that log See it can't vind PHY Just look for "forcedeth_Fix_PHYError.zip" It should be somewhere on this forum as well.

selfdestruct Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I've tried every forcedeth.kext file that i could find on this forum and am still not getting a connection. When i check my Network settings my ethernet card is "there" but it states that a cable is unplugged. I use a Router to give out IPs via DHCP. Heres my system specs: ASUS M2N-E nForce 570 Ultra MCP The entire info on my board can be found here http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&...amp;modelmenu=2 Here is a log taken from when i tried to use forcedeth.

colorhazer Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 ok, my network adapter is NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller. mobo name: Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 (2 PCI, 3 PCI-E x1, 2 PCI-E x16, 4 DDR2 DIMM, Audio, Gigabit LAN, IEEE-1394) mobo chipset: nVIDIA nForce 570 SLI, AMD Hammer at first, i had only FireWire and "Built-in..Port something.." in the Network Settings now that i installed this driver for nforce4 LAN i got Ethernet, but still, it shows that it's unplugged and my modem thingy has only 2 lights instead of 3 (when i'm on xp), so it's not working. i tried to unplug the cable for 30 secs but that didn't work either. is there any way i can get osx to recognize my networking controller? :/ here's a screenshot from the terminal log: http://xs126.xs.to/xs126/08140/terminallog603.jpg and network settings: http://xs126.xs.to/xs126/08140/settings709.jpg thanks edit: i copied iNoob's nForcEthernetDriver.kext from (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=89475&st=0) into my extensions folder, rebooted my pc and now the modem has his 3 lights, but it's still unrecognized, it says that it's unplugged in the network settings. also now when i boot into osx i get this: http://xs226.xs.to/xs226/08140/forcedetherror390.jpg edit2: internet is working now after using this driver (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=73317), but when i try to download something osx freezes completely. cpus=1 is working though..

Unkwntech Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I just tried to get the driver installed with no luck, nothing is showing in the log other then the lines showing the commands that I am running. dmseg also did not show anything out of the ordinary. The motherboard is the Asus M2NPV-VM with the nForce4 chipset. I am trying this in 10.5.2 if there is any additional information that I can provide let me know.

JuanSNM Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Hi all, I have a MCP61 chipset, with 0x03EF LAN on it. The problem was that I could not get connection since the MAC address detected appeared backwards. So I downloaded MEdevils forcedeth.zip, installed forcedeth-nock.kext and works. Now, I get the usual KP on heavy loads, is it possible to mr Chutenhh to add this mod to your more stable driver? I tried using the ifconfig command with no luck, I think i did it right, should the changed MAC address update in Network config window? becouse mine doesn`t. Thanks for your effort!

DrewHeyn Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Hi all, would love some help with my problem - I feel I'm almost there to getting the nForce4 on-board ethernet to work with leopard (ABIT KN9 motherboard). I've tried forcedeth.kext (as well as forcedeth-d, forcedeth-nock etc) and the best I get to is the line "Network link down".

AndrewNeo Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 First I'd really like to thank both planetbeing and MeDevil for posting their code. I have an MCP61 (0x03EF) and couldn't get forcedeth to work (backwards MAC address.) As soon as I found MeDevil's release, I saw planetbeing released one for 10.5, minus MeDevil's changes. So, I took it upon myself to merge the two and release it! I'm currently running 10.5 on a MCP61 chipset with the forcedeth-nockd.kext extension installed. It worked right away, something I was very happy to see after having to use Internet Connection Sharing over Firewire from a Windows machine just to get online. This was compiled under 10.5, and I don't know what I'm doing when it comes to programming for OS X, let alone kernel-level drivers, so I tried to be as careful as possible. YMMV. Good luck with it! EDIT: I had noticed the forcedeth-nock.kext problem as noted below. I reuploaded the zip with a fixed nock, but I haven't tested the change yet. Hopefully it should work. updated_leopard_plus_mcp61.zip updated_leopard_plus_mcp61_r1.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ante Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Thanks Andrew! Your compile did the trick for me-- I'm online now with Forcedeth-nock.kext from your release (see specs below). I will point out that the plist for forcedeth-nock is indeed broken as mentioned here. I just added the line suggested, installed the kext and away we go (with no systemlog spam from the nockd version). Many thanks to all I have a completely functioning Hackintosh (118 Xbench too-- not too shabby all things considered) Ante ==== Leopard 10.5.2 (Zephyroth Rev. 2) on: Gigabyte GA-M61SME-S2 --Realtek ALC883 (ALC Inject/3 port) --Realtek 8201/MCP61/0x03EF (forcedeth-nock) AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ (ToH 9.2.0 Kernel, SSE3) MSI NX 8600GT CI+QE (NVInject 2.0/256mb) 2GB DDR800 OCZ (listed as 400mhz in system profiler?)

planetbeing Posted April 24, 2008 Author Share Posted April 24, 2008 For anyone checking the tail end of this huge thread, I made some changes and updated the top post. MeDevil and chuttenh: I really appreciate you guys contributing to this (though the others here probably appreciate it more)! Although I wish you guys would've PM'ed me because I spent some time tracking down and fixing the same exact bug that chuttenh found, not knowing that he already did! Also, sorry for the plist brokenness. I don't usually use the no checksumming versions. I fixed that too. The canonical version should be pretty decent again now.

planetbeing Posted April 24, 2008 Author Share Posted April 24, 2008 As I've noted, the changes do not increase compatibility. Problems like that probably have to do with having to set a timer to manually check for link state change. That probably isn't too hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

planetbeing Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 wait, really? ok now im confused too... now im going to have to to some checking... Ok this is the thread i got my driver from http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=89475 the 2nd one posted. I was freezing on downloads, but after rebooting with cpus=1 im having no problems at all under Leo4Allv3 sorry for the confusion, and thanks for your help. Thanks! After reading their code, it looks like there are only cosmetic changes from the current version of what I have, at least from what I can see. They use constants for the buffer sizes and so on. Except for one difference: In my program, I forget to initialize the nicTx variable to 0 and they did not. Looking at your log, that's why the driver fired off a packet before the link was even up. That might be the issue. I'll fix the problem. Would you mind trying out the driver (I'll upload it later) to see if that was what the issue was?
