Have Aspire 3620 with ENE Cardbus 1410 too

[snam11]

same problem here... acer travelmate 8215wlhi.
o2micro controller has pcmcia bus and firewire shared. (this notebook has 1 standard pcmcia slot and 1 express card)
so no firewire and pcmcia working.
has some1 a working kext to use at least pcmcia bus (maybe disabling firewire)?

bump!

by the way, i noticed i didn't include a screenshot. i get 3 build errors, something to do with a timer not being defined. has anyone compiled the iopccardfamily before?

I have been trying the same, but my programming skills are too much lacking in order to be of any real use.
Would be nice to get that pcmcia working as 'native' airport with Linksys cards would be in store.

I was lucky enough to get my 2200 Wifi working with the Wifi driver though.

I ended up using USB and abandon cardbus... too bad

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!!!!!!!!!

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.

i have the same problem with my acer 3623, everything working out of the box except for that pcmcia slot, so no connect card

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.

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

until I replace IOPCIFamily.kext from v2.0 to v1.7!
Now my PCMCI works

Nice to know that people are getting somewhere with this

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

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

Hey folks,

You might want to have a look at Chun-Nans work in this thread:http://forum.insanel...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,
