Right, this seams to be the best forum to ask people a stupid question!!

 

 

I have a hp dv6680ea laptop and i had massive problems install osx, but these have nearly all been resolved by changing dist packages.

I am now using Kalyway 10.5.5 and all is now working. except the usual problem with the intel 3495abg card not working.

 

I have changed this to a different pci-e card and the chip set is supported RALINK card.

 

But now after changing the cards over, the same thing happends, I install drivers and still card does not show up on osx!

 

I have even formatted the drive and reinstalled the dist and still nothing. Its like there is no card in the machine!

 

Am I just missing something being that I am new to the mac sceen? Is there a setting somewhere in the software that turns on the software to allow the mac to look for the wifi card???

 

I have looked in system pref's - network - and there is only eathernet, firewire and bluetooth there and if I try to add a device, it only lets me choose any of the three above??

 

Please dont shoot me down in flames here, I am just trying to learn!

 

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help
