Okey boys. I have to be totally honest. I have not tried it that much yet. :blink: But before I bang my thick skull against the wall for some hours I thought I ask if any one have gotten the Intel® 82575EB Dual-port Gigabit Ethernet Controller to work in OSX Leo or any other OSX? :P The motherboard I have is:

Any hint or tips is warmly welcome.

 

Thanks guys and have a nice weekend! :D

Mkay.... Been playing with this a bit now. Seems like it's not possible to modify the AppleIntel8225x kext. I added my 82575EB controller to it. Tested quite a few combos, for example:

 

<string>0x10A78086 0x10928086 0x10518086 0x10508086 0x10298086 0x10308086&0xfff0ffff 0x12098086 0x12278086 0x12288086 0x12298086 0x24498086 0x24598086 0x245d8086 0x10608086&0xfff0ffff</string>

 

Where 0x10A78086 is my controller. Also tried to add it as 0x10A78086&0xfff0ffff but none of them work. Seems like that specific driver checks the controllers eeprom. So in dmesg i get errors like:

 

i82557eeprom: checksum 0 incorrect
Intel82557: couldn't allocate eeprom object
i82557eeprom: checksum 0 incorrect
Intel82557: couldn't allocate eeprom object

 

Sad {censored}. =/ Is there some way to compile drivers on OSX from the intel provided source?
