No problem :)

here's my SLE folder (note, this is from 10.9)

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3112503/Extensions.zip 

Most of the kexts I used from first post, like battery kexts, Fn keys kext, and PS2 kexts. Intel HD kexts are stock maverick kexts, except they're modified to suppport VGA display port. IONetworkingFamily is bone stock, I just use Atheros injector kext. VoodooHDA for the audio and Modified AICPUPM.kext+DSDT+SSDT for the power management (fully working sleep)

I'm using newest version of Chameleon bootloader.

I managed to run wifi and Bluetooth with native kexts by DSDT edit. I also attached my DSDT.dsl file.

Maybe someone can help me!
 
I have an ASUS NS53SV-SX336V (i3, 4gb RAM, nvidia gt540m, Intel HD3000...), I'm running on it a ML 1.8.2 with almost working:
(HD3000, Sound, Sleep, Ethernet, Touchpad, FnKeys, USB 3.0)

 

But I can't get wifi card working. I tried with all kexts in this post but when I want to load it, I get an error saying : 
"/Extra/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext - no dependecy found for com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily.".

The strange part is that I have that kext loaded (because my ethernet card is working ok).

I checked dependecies versions and all seems ok, also I added my wifi deviceId:vendorId .... and get nothing.
 
If I run lspci, it's said:
NetworkController: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 100
But if I checked it using System Information, it said:
"Atheros AR9285 802.11b/g/n Wireless Network Adapter"
 
Could someone get this card working?
 
Thanks in advanced.

Hi,

 

I'm on 10.8.2 thanks to your instructions, kexts and DSDT patches (to disable the NVIDIA GPU and such), so thank you very much. :D

Now I'm wanting to update to 10.9 Mavericks. Since your stuff apparently works for me, too, I was wondering if everything works okay for you now.

 

@Others:

Anyone experience with running 10.9 on this type of laptop?

 

Asus N53SV-SZ404V

Intel Core i7 2630QM @ 2 GHz
Intel Mobile HM65 Chipset
6 GB DDR3 RAM
Intel HD 3000 + NVIDIA GeForce GT540M (only Intel is fine)
750 GB HDD with MBR partition table (important, because of Win8 dual-boot)
Atheros Wi-Fi (don't know which model)
1920x1080 Full HD Resolution
 
10.8.2 works fine, but I'm using a lot of custom drivers (eng_matt's), so I'm hesitating to update.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Cheers,

Flitskikker

Hey guys,

 

I would like to thank everyone that has contributed information to this thread (especially eng_mat, the OP). 

 

Because of you I have a fully working Mac OSX 10.9 (Mavericks) installation going.

 

Can't get the 540M to work but that's allright.

 

I learned a lot along the way, when I started didn't even know what kext files were. Without this thread I would have been hopefully lost. 

 

For everyone that needs the Wifi drivers for Atheros AR9002wb-1ng, look here: http://www.osx86.net/files/file/1550-ar9285-ar5b195-ar9002wb-pcie-wireless-half-size/

 

Can't thank you guys enough, Mac OSX rocks!

 

@flitskikker I have an N53SV - SZ404 and 10.9 is rocking solid so you can try too I guess.

 

FYI I didn't use the Kext the OP provided but used the Intel 3000 ones that were installed with Mavericks.

 

:D

To anyone with Atheros / Wi-Fi problems; this kext package is the only thing that works for me:

http://www10.zippyshare.com/v/90505906/file.html

 

You'll need both! DeviceMergeNub will inject a Wi-Fi country code. Otherwise you won't be able to connect to networks.

 

 

@Rick Lamers: Which kexts from where did you use exactly? Are the Intel 3000 kexts untouched? Alvast bedankt! :)
