jlaroche Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I have an IBM Thinkpad model Z61m Laptop (with Product ID #9450A36)and your instructions did not work. I entered the commands under bash, but when I rebooted I didn't get the "NETWORK DEVICES DETECTED" message and I could not get the ethernet working under the 'Networking' section under 'System Preferences'. Any help would be appreciated. Also, my CDROM and USB are not working. I would appreciate any and all help. Thanks in advance Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/114605-working-bcm57xx-driver-for-os-x/page/7/#findComment-1549147 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlaroche Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 UPDATE: I reinstalled my whole system and used iDeneb 1.5.1 (OSX 10.5.7) and I got a few more things working. So, to be specific, my CDRom, USB, Sound, Video and Mouse work. So basically I just need to get my Wireless and Wired Ethernet up. I've been looking around, but have not found anything. My Wireless card is an Intel Pro Wireless 3945ABG and my Wired Ethernet is the Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit. Anyone out there get these up and running?
