ran22 Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Hi Guys and Macgirl!!!!! Is it working now on intel leopard or still the ppc version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebH Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 I've tried on my hackintosh, no success. I install the package, and reboot, and it doesn't find the card. I've run the apps it installs, and the apps can't see the card either. When I run Osx86tools, though, it can see and identify the card, but I can't get OS X to accept it. Anyone else tried this? -C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrouds Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Not working for me either...I'm RMAing the card. BOO to ralink for misleading me on their website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boypeter999 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Same for me System profiler doesn't even see a PCI device as being there so it's no wonder it won't work Anyone got further than this? BTW I installed the card in Vista (had to go to their website and download new drivers - would have been interesting if I didn't also have a wired connection! Their installation instructions are wrong too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macgirl Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 RT61 still PPC Only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Kicker Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 The RT61 is PPC only; the date on the kext shows up as Nov 2007 so as far as I can see, there's no updated RT61 driver yet. It's a real pain in the arse for me as iwi2200 is buggy as hell and it's stopping me switching to OS X on my Latitude D610. After a brief struggle getting PCMCIA to work, the least I expected was poor driver support as the open source stuff on Linux works quite nicely.

z11111 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 something very, VERY strange... I have this card in my dual-boot iPC 10.5.6 / Windows XP Pro SP2 setup. I don't have the drivers installed on Windows XP SP2, nor did I do ANYTHING in terms of installing kexts for 10.5.6, but the card works in osx86 this is on an old Pentium 4.

LatinMcG Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 strange indeed. is it Rt2561 on the chip ? i suspect its the pci bus isnt being seen properly through the bridge. i added it to dsdt under HUb0 in my g41m-es2l and it shows up in profiler now but still no worky.
