Full Version: Driver for nForce4 LAN
My computer doesnt freeze, it just seem to mess up my USB drivers so neither my Keyboard or Mouse will work :S
Hi all
Very new to this so please be gentle
Basically I have a Nforce controller which I have seen in Everest on Vista (number of which however I can't find). However in OS X (Kalyway 10.5.2) I am not seeing this in System Preferences Network. I am trying to connect by PPPoE and nothing appears in the Ethernet drop box.
All is well in Vista and this as far as I know is the only problem which I seem to have within OS X. Everything else seems to have worked extremely well (sound works, resolution fine, speed to my knowledge similar to actual Macs albeit a little yet mainly unnoticeable)
My specs are below:
Acer Aspire E360 - N873
AMD Athlon 64 3500+
240 GB HDD (Vista on 200GB drive, OS X on 40GB drive)
2GB RAM
GeForce FX6600 256MB
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Cheers

EDIT:
Reinstalled the OS and checked the forcedeth box as a installable addon. I can set up Ethernet now however it still isn't connecting to the router. The router is connected to another PC running Win XP, would any sharing need to be done or could I just connect to the router somehow? I have set up a manual IP, the WINS is setup, tried DCHP but still nothing. The router is Zyxel
I have also checked in Network Utility. Packets are being sent, a small amount is received and the link is shown as 100mbps so I would guess it has picked up something. Could it be the router and not the Mac OS itself.
Thanks in advance for help. Have been trying google all day and had no luck.

I recommend loading it and unloading it manually with the command (in Terminal):
kextload -v <path to forcedeth.kext>
Before that, you should (in a separate Terminal window), type "tail -f /var/log/system.log", so that you can get the debugging output from the kernel. If necessary, unload it later by:
kextunload <path to forcedeth.kext>
Load it and tell me all the messages from forcedeth. It looks something like this for me (this is how it should work):
forcedeth: Initializing.
forcedeth: Probing.
Starting.
forcedeth: PCI subsystem 0x1043:0x8141 opened.
forcedeth: Mapped from 0xD2100000 of length 4096.
forcedeth: Allocated 3072 bytes of contiguous memory for DMA: rx at 0x34d22000, tx at 0x34d22400, wired at 0x2902e000.
forcedeth: Found nForce4 LAN with MAC: 00:15:F2:50:EF:C6.
forcedeth: Found PHY 0x3080:0x000c at address 9.
com_triton_forcedeth: Ethernet address 00:15:f2:50:ef:c6
forcedeth: Enabling
forcedeth: Network link down.
forcedeth: Link speed now 100Mbps, code 0x10064.
This should all appear in quick succession, though a second or two is needed before the last link is displayed and the network is established.
What I'm specifically curious about is whether forcedeth ever gets to the "enabling" part.
EDIT: I've changed the driver a little so it's slightly more verbose, also I removed an tx/rx control flag that wasn't supposed to be there.

Hello Im new at this. I just got os x leopard running on my computer WOooHOoooo! But I had no networking. So I tried version 3 and 2 of the driver posted and when i tried version 3 I got to step 9 and when i entered the command a window apeared saying "A new network interface has been detected" 
then everything froze . Whats wrong? I tryed it like 5 different times and the same thing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yea same here. I tried to unplug and plug it in, but no dice, tell me if either of you got a fix.
I have a M2N too, i don't find a driver that could be working.... It freezes after Terminal....
Thank you, i have a problem too with my usb port...
I'm using Kalyway 10.5.2 ! What version will be better for my motherboard ? Zephyroth ?

Hi.
MCP-67 is partially working.
pciid: 0x054c10de
I have a dsl router and a modem. The driver always detects plugging/unplugging of the cable. I always get a self assigned ip. When I'm connecting to the modem I can make a pppoe connection to the internet!
My guess is that the driver doesn't detect wether the cable is straight or crossover. I guess I'll make a crossover cable to try and confirm this thought.
I hope this information helps fixing the driver for mcp-67 users. if you need any more information pm me.

Hi,
I have the same mobo(EVGA 790i Ultra SLI) and installed Leo4All v3, checked forcedeth-v upon install and NforceTest.
Network worked for me when I first plugged in the cable into my first nvidia eth controller(I was using the other one at the time from windows). However, after rebooting into Windows and enabling the same controller in Windows, I have been unable to get anything but "Self-assigned IP address" for my netcard in Leopard 10.5.2. I have read it might be a DHCP server issue. I've reset my router quite a few times, disabled manual IP/MAC address mathcing and such but no luck. I annoys me that it once worked and then stopped working.
What drivers did you install when you installed Leo4All v3? What ACPIPlatform vers and such? I will try to reinstall.
Help
.Thanks.

Yeah, well, looks like I'll answer myself. Got it to work but with some sacrifices.
One: cpus=1. Damn it.
Two: I mustn't use the controller I use in Leopard in Windows or the DHCP in Leopard will get screwed up.
That's all I've got so far. Kudos to planetbeing. Wish there was like a team or smth doing some dev on this driver. I guess I might start hacking myself now that I was able to download Xcode without kernel panics and install it. I wrote some drivers for Linux and a rather broken firewall driver for Windows. If only I had more free time and NO job
(!I guess I could always plugin my ol' cheapo Realtek.

@planetbeing:
Hi, great work. If we would trace all the drivers method and have people with 2 cores send us their system log after a crash couldn't we track the problem?
Also, we all assumed it's a synchronization problem but maybe it's something else having to do with the kernel's scheduler or architecture?
In the Linux kernel for example, that became preemptive starting with 2.4 you have to protect data access with spin locks or things like that in irq handlers or syscalls handlers and things like that. That is functions that you know will be called at an unpredictable time. Of course you have to protect the same data if you access it from somewhere else as well. So, what do you say, can we track down and fix this 2 cores-kernel-panic problem?
And...Is there a book like "Linux Device Drivers" but for the Darwin kernel?
P.S.
At some point somebody posted a version that he said was very safe. I tried that as well and my Leopard froze just as well.If he was right and he did protect the data against all possible sync issues than maybe it is something else.

I am running into the same exact problem. I have my valid MAC address however my IP is bogus (a 169). I have tried using both eth ports, disabling one at a time, and putting a manual address in and nothing has worked for me.

OK. Try this:
Disable in windows(and probably any other OS) the controller you will use for Mac OS X.
Convince your router if you have one to release all DHCP addresses, that is to clear it's DHCP allocation table. Add two entries in the manual DHCP allocation table for your two nvidia eth controllers. You could try a ipconfig /release as admin in windows to release assigned addresses. If this doesn't work reset your router.
After you are done with all this, unplug your computer for a while and boot in Mac OS X. After it has booted, plug in the cable in thge controller you want to use for Mac OS X(for me it was the first one because the second controller never detected the cable as plugged in - e.g. the controller with the lowest MAC address).
If you ask me, the forcedeth thing is too much of a hustle, I am thinking of plugging in my old Realtek controller any day now. Or even buying a new one. I just don't like packing things around my videocard and my PICe slots. I am also thinking of doing SLI in the future and things might get really crowded in there.
There's probably some bug in the IP broadcast code in conjunction of an already assigned DHCP address.
It's really weird.
Hope this helps.

Hi,

I used forcedeth 0.3c from planetbeing (but it froze my computer when i launched the driver (both forcedeth & forcedeth-nockd)
Now i melt the two driver and my connection work (without the cpus=1 flag)
Just unzip the attachement on desktop and it works fine, launch the Internet, internet 2 & internet 3 scripts.

Your solution worked for me kinda. I have to run the 3 scripts everytime i boot my computer and then i have to manualy put in my mac address, IP, Router IP, ect. and then it still says no cable pluged in but it works. So for it to work i have to do that everytime i reboot.
any ideas? Thanks.
I'm still trying...

I've got a FSB 1066 nForce 570 SLI motherboard with a NVIDIA nForce Network Controller,
this fix SHOULD work for that right?
if not, any other patches that will work?

Hi could someone tell me or point/link me somewhere where i can get drivers to get LAN working for my chipset its a nForce 570 sli
my mobo is Asus M2N SLI Deluxe
AMD 5600+
2/gb corsair DDR2 800
I have vista running on the other harddrive. im using IDE for Leo.
using Kalyway 10.5.2
everythign is fine except the LAN and USB ports at the back.
also if someone can tell me how to get the F8 bootloader, because i had it with zeph's version but not kalyway. is there a way to get it back?
please help thanks!

I installed leo4allv3 on my MSI K9N Neo-F Mainboard (nForce 550 chipset) with a SATA hdd and SATA dvd driver and hat some troubles to make forcedeth work. Here are my experiences:
planetbeing's driver from the first post of this topic crashes my system. If loaded at boot time, the boot process suddenly stops and after several minutes of inactivity, it displays "disk0s2: data underrun". So I removed the forcedeth.kext from the system extensions and it boots up without network fine. However, trying to manually load forcedeth.kext from a terminal, makes osx become unusable. First it looked like it crashed, but I realized that it seems to run ok, but just disabled keyboard and mouse so that I couldn't interact anymore.
So I tried AndrewNeo's driver updated_leopard_plus_mcp61_r1.zip from page 29 of this topic - and even though under Linux, lspci says that my card is a MCP55, the MCP61 version from AndrewNeo loads fine and works.
However, I still have a problem with this driver. On power up or if rebootet from Windows XP into OSX, it doesn't get an IP address and falls back to a self-assigned IP. So I manually configured the interface and expected it to work, but it didn't. Running tcpdump on en0 shows that the interface receives packets from other computers on the LAN and also sents out packets - but those packets don't arrive. If I ping the router of my net, OSX keeps sending out ARP requests to find out the router's mac.
It looks like the driver sents out packets, but the card drops them instead of sending them. None of the tips on this forum helped, like turing off power after using windows, using ipconfig /release and reboot into OSX or even reset the DHCP server... I finally found out, that it works, if I boot Linux and reboot into OSX.
I assume that there's something wrong with the card initialization of this kext. The packet sending seems to only work if the Linux driver has correctly initialized the card before.
Update: It crashes on large downloads and even on some websites with larger images sometimes. cpus=1 seems to work around it.

I was using the 0.3 leopard version perfectly on a PATA drive, but I just installed to my SATA RAID and I've found that as soon as it's loaded, it causes a hard lock. No kernel panic debug text, nothing. /var/log/system.log doesn't show anything unusual. It's almost as if my USB ports stopped working, but nothing else on the screen is updated either. Again, the EXACT same driver works flawlessly on an identical installation, the only difference being that one OS is installed on a PATA disk, the other on a SATA RAID (created in Disk Utility).
Anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
EDIT: forcedeth.kext does still cause a hard lock only on the RAID, but forcedeth-nock.kext seems to work okay. What's the difference? Searching this thread and google doesn't tell me.

and then, it desables the my network card and I have to restart the computer again to have activity led blinking again.
Almost everything on my nb is running ok.. just USB drives and the Network aren't... please, someone, help me!!!!!

Me again.
Seems that forcedeth-nock.kext is causing hardlocks now, as is forcedeth.kext, on my SATA RAID. No clue what made it decide to suddenly stop playing nice with my nForce4 SATA disks. I'm not gonna deal with it anymore for a while, as I just spent about 5 hours pulling my hair out trying to figure out what I messed up, not even realizing it was forcedeth again.
EDIT:
Removed my little venting rant because apparently what was causing crashes after booting WAS the AppleNForceATA.kext (the one from MeDevil in the sticky) I was using for my SATA, but forcedeth does still hang the system on boot.
So it's two seperate problems that happened to manifest themselves at the same time. Both happen with or without the other kext present, so I don't think they're conflicting with each other.
EDIT2 (and hopefully last for a while):
After much testing this evening, I believe I've found the answer to both my problems (forcedeth and AppleNForceATA). I'm using 4GB of RAM. I had read that AMD users should limit it to 2GB by adding memmax=2048 to com.apple.boot.plist, and I did, but somewhere along the line I forgot I had removed it without putting it back on. Everything seems to be stable now and no crashes even if I try to stress the system as much as I can. Multiple reboots, hash checks during large installers and file transfers, etc. It is a pain to be limited to half my RAM, sure, but I was planning on getting a new machine in a few months anyway, so I'll live. Sorry for complaining when it was a known issue caused by my own forgetfulness.

just installed...but both of my ethernets say not connected...any ideas? did a restart...also did a shutdown, unplug for 30 seconds for the MAC...still no luck...
I've followed everything here, but I can't get the Hackintosh to turn on the LAN devices. It says they're there, and says no cable connected, but looking at the back of the machine, it isn't lighting anything up, and the port on my router is dark.
EDIT: Forgot.
It's an eVGA 680i board, 122-CK-NF68-A1

After a lot of trying . I got my lan to work with focredeth-nockd.kext. I am using a asrock mob (K8NF6G-VSTA). The only problem I have is if i reboot. I have go over the whole process with regards to loading the kext. is there away I can save it so i wont have to do that every time i reboot.
Thanks
Thanks
hi
when i load the kext my computer says a new network interface has been detected then it freezes. it looks like everything load right. i have os x 10.5.2 does anyone have any ideas thanks

I was getting that when i used the forcedeth . it stopped when i used the forcedeth-nockd
Im posting this from safari I used the mcp61_r1 nock file. I have to boot with cpus=1 to download without crash

I can't get this driver to work. As soon as I enter the last line into terminal I get the message that a network device has been detected and then my mouse and keyboard stiop responding. OSX does not crash. I had my iPod connected on one try and unplugged it after the freeze up and I was prompted on screen that the device was disconnected without safely ejecting it so the OS was still running.
Any ideas anyone?

I have the same problem,help please...
There is a problem with the code that is wrapped around obtaining the MAC address, some information should be defined statically and it isn't and this also contributes to the messed up variable pointers and extending a variable beyond it's initial size without reallocation is nothing shy of sloppy programming.
Also of importance is the IRQ management, why is the driver managing the IRQ and not the Kernel/OS as it should be?
There are several versions of this driver floating around and each has it's own little quirks, a public current source where people can contribute patches would help make a better driver as issues are found and corrected but this also requires time of the author (or an assignee) to manage the project in an environment where users don't clutter the threads with mundane crap like "it don't work for me, please help!!!".

I've found that using the marvell yukon (skge) driver is more stable than the nvidia/nforce4 lan driver
Hi,
I've been using forcekext drivers ever since and it is working fine with my MSI K9N Neo-F motherboard. However, there is a problem with this driver and I'm pretty much sure everyone experience this problem. I'm in a dual boot system - Windows XP and Leopard (Leo4allv3). If I'm planning to boot to my MacOSX, I have to unplug the power cord and wait for 30 secs and plug it back then boot to OSX in order for the nforce Ethernet to work. (This scenario will happen when I'm in windows then soft restarted - then booted to OSX -- it also happens when from Windows then turn off [shutdown]).
I was just wondering if this problem is still experienced today? Is there a work around or probably an alternative driver that we can use?
Thanks in advanced!

Hello guys, I have a problem with my nforce lan. I installed OS X using iDeneb 10.5.4 n it comes with forcedeth kext. I selected it, installed everything properly, n everything works fine, but for the ethernet. I have some screenshots here. Can anybody tell me wat i need to do or wat might be wrong with my system? I tried getting forcedeth -v variant but i cant find it anywhere online. I have it on leo4all disc, but i dont know how to extract it of the disc. Please help.
I decided to do wat u have instructed to do in post #1 with the kext u attached in post #34. I still get the same issue as my post above. Here are the logs of wat appeared on the terminal. Im sorry but I dont know the right terms for them, so Im just gonna call the logs Tail and Bash, im sure u know the difference
here is the Bash, where i type all the codes
and here is the Tail, where the log is
I apologize if they are very lengthy. I just include everything dat appeared in the terminal. Please help me Planetbeing, help me figure out why i have the problem above.
Thank you very much.
here is the Bash, where i type all the codes

I apologize if they are very lengthy. I just include everything dat appeared in the terminal. Please help me Planetbeing, help me figure out why i have the problem above.
Thank you very much.
I'm also getting the freezing after the kextload issue. I'm using 10.5.4 and my dev ID is 0269. Anyone found a fix for this issue yet?
Edit: chuttenh's kext works okay for me and I don't get a kernel panic, per se, but the network link does go down after alot of bandwidth traffic goes through.

I have tried both forcedeth and forcedeth-V from leo4allv3
I get no response or freeze when loading .3 version, -V version does nothing that I can see
I do get the network hardware found dialog then freeze.

EDIT:
The driver attached should now be fairly stable, but as with all OS X drivers, there is no guarantee of support. Complete system freezes have been known to occur with older versions and may reoccur, so avoid doing critical work on OS X. Source code is included for the sake of future generations. Here are my recommended instructions for getting it working on your computer:
1. Download the attached driver
2. Extract the contents onto the desktop
3. Open the Terminal application in the Applications/Utilities folder
4. Type "tail -f /var/log/system.log" to obtain debugging output for the first run.
5. Use the menu bar to open up a new Terminal window.
6. In this new window, type "cd ~/Desktop/forcedeth/build/Release"
7. sudo chown -R root:wheel forcedeth.kext
8. sudo chmod -R 755 forcedeth.kext
9. sudo kextload -v forcedeth.kext
10. Observe in the log window what happens. If there are no errors, and you eventually see the link going up with a proper speed, then the driver will work with your hardware. Otherwise, paste the log in this thread for help.
11. Test out the driver by browsing some websites, etc.
12. If there were any problems in steps 10 or 11, type "sudo kextunload forcedeth.kext", then repeat steps 7-11 for forcedeth-nockd.kext
13. To install the driver, type "sudo cp -R forcedeth.kext /System/Library/Extensions"
14. Lastly, update the extensions cache with "sudo kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions"

The driver attached should now be fairly stable, but as with all OS X drivers, there is no guarantee of support. Complete system freezes have been known to occur with older versions and may reoccur, so avoid doing critical work on OS X. Source code is included for the sake of future generations. Here are my recommended instructions for getting it working on your computer:
1. Download the attached driver
2. Extract the contents onto the desktop
3. Open the Terminal application in the Applications/Utilities folder
4. Type "tail -f /var/log/system.log" to obtain debugging output for the first run.
5. Use the menu bar to open up a new Terminal window.
6. In this new window, type "cd ~/Desktop/forcedeth/build/Release"
7. sudo chown -R root:wheel forcedeth.kext
8. sudo chmod -R 755 forcedeth.kext
9. sudo kextload -v forcedeth.kext
10. Observe in the log window what happens. If there are no errors, and you eventually see the link going up with a proper speed, then the driver will work with your hardware. Otherwise, paste the log in this thread for help.
11. Test out the driver by browsing some websites, etc.
12. If there were any problems in steps 10 or 11, type "sudo kextunload forcedeth.kext", then repeat steps 7-11 for forcedeth-nockd.kext
13. To install the driver, type "sudo cp -R forcedeth.kext /System/Library/Extensions"
14. Lastly, update the extensions cache with "sudo kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions"

ok, I was using forcedeth-d on my zeph 10.5.2 very nice.
I installed yesterday the 10.5.4 modbin 9.4.0 kernel (ideneb). The lan works but worse then never. I just can not navigate. TOO SLOW. Almost dead.
I tried to install the forcedeth-d again, keeps bad.
Then, I tried to install ALL the versions at the first post of this topic, and nothing changed.
Please I need some help. I dont know more what to do.

EDIT: HOLD YOUR HORSES! It seems to be working good now. But I did so many tries that I dont remember the last driver I used, there is a way to know which one is in use know? I will make some tests. Any problem I will post here!

pls someone respond to my pleawe are all waiting for it.
now, what you can do is check out this topic everyday and hopefully
you will get your driver some day
As soon as I try to load the kext, OSX freezes... Too bad...
Got an older driver version working though, but then OSX is very unstable
So now we start the waiting process...
EDIT:
chuttenh's kext works for me too, but unfortunately OSX is rather unstable right now...
When I make "intesive" use of my network card OSX freezes
Boooo...

Hey guys. Anybody got a kext for the nforce 6? Dont know if there is a kext for the new ones at all.
I think I'm going to check out my old PCs and stick the old network card into my pc. Do you think it will work?

new to this osx86 thing but have everything working except for ethernet using the lawlessppc 10.5.4. my motherboard is a ECS MCP61PM-HM. The only kext that has recognized my ethernet is the forcedeth 03 version but when i get it installed it shows the adapter has been recognized then freezes. unable to get a log due to it freezing right away. any suggestions?
an update. i tried installing the same forcedeth in safemode and then rebooted. It now recognizes my ethernet card however it shows inactive and cable unplugged. my router is assigning an ip address but the Nic is not sending hence still no internet. tried several things but the ethernet card seems like it is just going to stay crippled. If you need comp specs i'm running a HP m8300f. I also bought a netgear ga311 ethernet card and can't get that to work either. So far its a no win situation as far as internet goes.
I recommend try the forcedeth-d kext...
weird: After shutdown the pc, unplugged the energy cable... wait 5 or 10 minutes it worked OK...
