Hello...

 

Have 10.9 installed using Bronya's rc7 kernel...  

 

Phenom 1100T w/ ATI 6990

 

I am having a difficult time getting my ethernet working...  I have an ASUS Crosshair IV Formula MB using the Marvell Yukon 8059 for ethernet...

 

I have found where the port seems to be supported - http://olarila.com/kexts/ - AppleYukon2 v. 3.2.3b1

 

Download not working on that entry - and, not sure how to proceed...

 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Something just isn't right with this setup I have...  Crosshair IV Formula / Phenom X6 1100T...  my LAN is recognized using your IONetworkingFamily.kext...  I also tried editing /IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/Plugins/AppleYukon2.kext/Contents/Info.plist changing the 8056 section to correspond with my 8059 ID => 0x438111ab

 

The LAN is showing up in networking - but, it says "ethernet cable unplugged"...

 

I have tried multiple things - adding a new "location" - removing the interface - rebooting - then adding back in...  I have tried other patches - SKGE.kext - I have tried removed npci=0x3000 - I have tried npci=0x2000, etc...

 

I have purchased (2) additional PCI and PCIe NIC cards...

 

I have the newest firmware for the MB...  (rev 3029)

 

All come back to "ethernet cable unplugged"...

 

Linux has no issues with the NIC card and Windows has no issues with the NIC card...  OSX just does not recognize that the cable actually is plugged in and does indeed work...  heh...

 

Any further suggestions before I breakdown and upgrade my box...?
