Hi everyone!

I'm using 10.4.9 by Uphuk on my Acer TM 2410. I used IOPCCardFamily.kext.ene.cb1410.barbie.zip

and get this:

 

XXX-computer:~ root# dmesg | grep PC

AppleIntelPIIXPATA: Secondary PCI IDE channel is disabled

IOPCCardBridge::checkBridgeBusIDs invalid sub/cardbus/pci settings of 0x0

Got boot device = IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/PATA@1F,1/AppleIntelPIIXATARoot/PRID@0/AppleIntelPIIXPATA/ATADeviceNub@0/IOATABlockStorageDriver/IOATABlockStorageDevice/IOBlockStorageDriver/ST9120822A Media/IOFDiskPartitionScheme/Untitled 4@4

 

Any ideas? PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone!

...snif...

and get this:

IOPCCardBridge::checkBridgeBusIDs invalid sub/cardbus/pci settings of 0x0

seems like it happens due to other kext doesn get along with the pccard kext, have you try to use

IOPCIFamily.kext from 10.4.5 or maybe other glitchman's kext (except for the IOPCCardFamily.kext) ?

 

good luck!

Hi, dear Barbie.

First of all, thanks for your reply. But, unfortunately, all this kext doesnt work. I'd like to ask you - What kind of MacOS X you're using (by whom)? And also I have Acer TM 2410. Maybe you can give your working kext? Will be very grateful to you.

 

P.S. Sorry for my English.

Success!

ENE CB1410 Working i Leopard!

 

iATKOS v1.0i with PC_EFI v8

SpeedStep kernel, dual core working!

Acer TravelMate 6292 (Identified as Mac Pro)

 

After searcing the forums, and a lot of trial and error I finally got it working using kernel extensions from 10.4.8 (JaS), and editing IOPCCardFamily.kext.

 

Extensions replaced: AppleACPIPlatform, AppleAPIC, IOACPIFamily, IOPCIFamily, and IOPCCardFamily.

 

Unless your lspci output matches the one below, you will have to modify IOPCCardFamily for your system.

Check out this post for instructions how to...

 

Sometimes I get this failure during boot:

IOPCCard info:   Intel PCIC probe: 
IOPCCard notice:   Bad bridge mapping at 0xf0407000! 
IOPCCardBridge::start failed 

,but 95% of the time it´s working like a charm.

 

Hardware info (Linux command: lspci -nn -vvv):

0a:01.0 CardBus bridge [0607]: ENE Technology Inc CB1410 Cardbus Controller [1524:1410] (rev 01)

Note: Attached IOPCCardFamily is modified for this exact controller (memory, I/O and PCI ID).

Note2: Replacing these extensions also gave me back the battery icon on my laptop :|

My PCMCI Picoh R5C475 didn't work in 10.4.6 with the same message

IOPCCardBridge::checkBridgeBusIDs invalid sub/cardbus/pci settings of 0x0

...

until I replace IOPCIFamily.kext from v2.0 to v1.7!

Now my PCMCI works :D

Nice to know that people are getting somewhere with this :thumbsup_anim:

 

I upgraded my laptop at the new year, and to my surprise - it has an ExpressCard slot rather than cardbus/PCMCIA :D (Great, another hurdle to get over! :P)

 

I still have the Acer, but my partner uses that now so.. :dance_24:

Hey folks,

 

You might want to have a look at Chun-Nans work in this thread:http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=81036

He's just added ENE devices - if you could try it and let us know if it works, that would be great.

Please post any replies in that thread.

 

Cheers,

EqUaTe

 

 

Thanks, now my ene cardbus is working!!!! Thank you Chun-Nans!
