Hi

I am using Asus p5b-deleuxe board/jas osx 10.48 resed.

I can run Sata(good performance on WD drive, sloooow on Seagate 7200.10) , Pata, sound(2ch) and onboard yukon (no jumbo frame).

The only missing working hardware is Yukon 8056 PCI-E, Realtek 8187L.

Anyone who know to make the missing hardware works?

Thanks
thedguy
This question has been asked a couple of times, there is even a thread dedicated to this board, and a tutorial on it.
http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...426&hl=asus

If your using JaS 10.4.8 your going to need the IONetworking.kext from 10.4.7, the one in 10.4.8 doesn't work right.

QUOTE
sudo nano /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworking.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon.kext/Info.plist
search for "8053" (no quotes) and replace with "8056" (no quotes)
Then search for "4362" (no quotes) and replace with "4364"
save the file, repair permissions and reboot.

Hi

I has been followed your guide, but i still can't to use the yukon 8056.

In the network preference, it don't display the 8056 yukon. It only display the 8001 yukon.

I would like to make dual ethernet port works.

Please help

To get your Yukon 88E8056 Ethernet to work, you need to add your device id to the AppleYukon.kext. Go to Terminal and type:
CODE
cd /System/Library/Extensions                                             <-- changes directory
sudo nano IONetworking.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon.kext/Info.plist   <-- edits file

  (find and change: <key>Yukon-88E8053</key>)

Hi

I did try this, but the problem is still comes as post #3.
rgb
need you guys help, please
stiffy
download this:
http://rapidshare.com/files/3117240/gigaby...3-4pack.1.2.dmg
open it w/ pacifist, right-click the Yukon pkg to install the pre-patched kext. after installation, do info.plist modification following post #4.

good luck!
OhWessTen
Thanks everyone...this worked for me in trying to get the Ethernet working on my Gigabyte 965P-DS4, which also has the Yukon Marvell 8056 (as a built in).

Just one thing though, the file I had to edit was

/System/Library/Extensions/IONetworking.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon.kext/Contents/Info.plist
fizzistuff
will this also work for 88E8055 ? unsure.gif
me@home
Sorry to say, I had no luck...tried it for 5-6 times with different IONetworkingFamily.kext

it's no problem to change the numbers from 8053 to 8056 and 62... to 64... then repair chmod/chown,permissions...
some IONetworkingFamily.kext have Yukon 1 and Youkon2 inside...yukon 2 is 11b or so and the yukon 1 shows 7 in info,
however only the Yukon 1 plug in has the 8053 so I did only corrected this one.

Has anyone a working LAN with intel 865 motherboard (using Yukon 8056) ?
Do I need to "replace" another file, too ?
theacolyte
This worked for me.

A couple things to clarify the instructions above for anyone new to this:

1) IONetworking.kext = IONetworkingFamily.kext -- I spent a lot of time trying to figure out where IONetworking.kext went only to realize it's also IONetworkingFamily.kext

2) After I rebooted, the card showed up under networking, but it said the cable was disconnected. My router also reflected that. After trying to figure out if I had a bad cable, I did this:

a) open a terminal window
c) sudo -s
cool.gif ifconfig en1 down
d) ifconfig en1 up

HTH,

I'd also like to know this, because yesterday I tried to install OS X on my new laptop (Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pro V3545) and my network and sound didn't work (haven't tried wireless yet, but I think it doesn't work either).

EDIT: It works for 88E8055 too. Now I just need to get WiFi and Sound working and I'll be happy. biggrin.gif

any help for the 88E1116?

I know what you are doing with the first key, and the first string, but the second one where, you change some seemingly irrelevant hex "<string>0x436211AB</string>" I have no idea what that is, or how to find out what that would be on mine. Any help?

You're missing a few things in the path and targeting a nonexistent kext. A few seconds examining the extensions directory also helps.

everything worked on 10.4.8 biggrin.gif ......then upgraded to 10.4.10 (uphuck, pascalw), now my network is wacked wacko.gif . I can surf the web, see one of my m$ computers, but not the other, and both m$ computers cannot see my Hack.

Been stuck on this for three days and I am going nuts. I also did the apple security update for 10.4.10.

checked the /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon.kext/Contents/Info.plist.....looks fine

when I go to fix an alias for the Network shares I get the network "greyed"out. If I get info on a network share the "fetching" just keeps spinning around.

Hi all,
New here, thought I'd give the Hack a shot, I DL'd an image and after much f&$&ing about got it to work, I was dead surprised (and pleased)
However, I too have a DS3 with the Yukon 88E8056 ethernet card. I'm using Leo 9a581 and when I try locate the Yukon file I cant find it, only the Yukon2 file, which I tried editing anyway (as per the guides) with no luck. DO I need to CREATE a Yukon file then edit that? Is Leo different from Tiger in this respect?

Hope all is hanging well for Y'all :-)

Hi rammjet,
I followed your howto and unfortunately it has not worked out for me...

I followed your instructions to the letter, and upon rebooting I was confronted with the following messages:

'System extension cannot be used ' the system extension /System/library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext' was installed improperly and cannot be used...'


This message was followed by others that were identical aprt from the associated extension that had failed.. these were

/System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamiley.kext/Contents/Plugins/AppleBCM5701Ethernet.kext

/System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamiley.kext/Contents/Plugins/AppleRTL8169Ethernet.kext

and

/System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamiley.kext/Contents/Plugins/AppleYukon2.kext

I had previously edited 'AppleBCM5701Ethernet.kext' adn added the Yukon 88E8056 card ID and vendor details, as seen in another post...

Any ideas onwhy this has not worked and I have these error messages would be much appreciated...

Thanks
Danskiman

Danskiman,

Did you get this fixed? If not try the following:

sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/
sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/
rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions.mkext

reboot

Hope this helps.

Hi mac-n-cheeze,

no I havent got it to work...

I have tried several things to no-avail...
I have downloaded a bundle from 'irc.osx86.hu' #radeon topic, and overwritten the extensions folder with the files contained within.

But on rebooting, OSX informs me that 'NATIT' was not installed correctly....and cant be used..

Under NEtworks my ethernet card status reads connected but I cannot connect to the net through any browser..

i may try the apple yukon workaround with vendor ID and device details with your added instructions to see what i get...

this is really frustrating, because aprt from this and my ATI 2900xt not working, OS X rocks...

a definitive 'howto' for the 8056 marvell yukon is needed, me thinks!
cheers

Im running a flat-image of osx Leopard on an Asus Pk5-e board with the 88E8056 Marvel Yukon ethernet card. Im sure this will work on any board with the card on it so this is how I got mine to work.

Find and Download the "gigabyte_ds3-4pack.1.2", then in Terminal, type:

cd /System/Library/Extensions <-- changes directory
sudo nano IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon2.kext/Plugins/Info.plist <-- edits file
(find and change: <string>0x9E001148</string>) <-- there will be many
(find and change: <string>0x21001148</string>) <-- again, there will be many
(to: <string>0x436411AB</string>)

(press Control-O) <-- saves changes
(press Enter) <-- accepts saving to existing file
(press Control-X) <-- exits nano

sudo chown -R root:wheel IONetworkingFamily.kext <-- repairs permissions
cd /System/Library <-- changes directories
sudo rm -rf Extensions.mkext Extensions.kextcache <-- rebuilds kextcache on reboot
exit <-- saves it all

*Now Reboot your system. When Leopard starts back up, go into your "System Preferences" and into your "Network". In there go to your "Ethernet" icon on the left hand side and change your settings to "DHCP" (mostly if your on a router, if your directly on a cable modem or DSL modem it can be different, pretty self explanatory though) then watch it reconnect. And WALAH!!! I was surprised too. I nearly keeled over in excitement.

--Thanks to all those MILLIONS of posts that help gather together all this information.

I tried changing the numbers as per previous post and per one of the other previous ones,and upon rebooting I didn't get network with my Abit IP35-E yukon ..56 adapter

(find and change: <string>0x436211AB</string>)

Hi Guys. I followed all the directions, specially entry #4 and entered the code correctly in the Terminal window. I also downloaded gigabyte_ds3-4pack.1.2 and installed the Yukon adapter's package by itself. I booted and still not working.

Is there something else that I can try. Been trying to fix this for 2 days now, driving me nuts.

Please help!

Thanks.

Hi lla,

I have a IP35 and i have the exact same problem. With Leo4all V3 and Kalyway the 8056 works great, but with EFI i cannot seem to get it to work yet. If I find i solution i'll let you know, but i only started yesterday with this stuff, so i am still in learning-mode smile.gif

Ok for me the solution was to boot with -x -v flags, enable the interface in System Preferences and then reboot again. Lan is working for me now smile.gif

Thank you very much .

unload the lan card and the driver . And rebuild the driver , using edit Info.plist .
then Boot into -x (safemode) and can kill the problem.

In case anyone has the same "Ethernet Cable Unplugged" message in the network system preferences

I used following command.

open a terminal window

It was originally suggested as

c) sudo -s
