pyrates Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 +1 from me for this development and probably +100 more from all the people at espressoreport.com why need this just as badly. Please, please help. Also, slice, you can post there that you are looking for someone to help you develop the driver because some people there might be interested. Try posting it under the Inspiron 1525 tutorial and the 10.5.6 update as they get the most views. I don't get why espressoreport.com doesn't just say to use the iPC 10.5.6 dvd release instead of starting off using kalyway 10.5.2. It worked for me. But I too do want this driver working.

Slice Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 That does not work with the 8808040 ethernet chipset. That's why it isn't working. I know. I need an advice from a smart man what is mean to correct the mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrates Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I know. I need an advice from a smart man what is mean to correct the mistake. I just told you, there is NO driver for 88E8040. Until someone makes one, your ethernet port will not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It worked for me. But I too do want this driver working. Because when the blog was created, the latest version was 10.5.4, hence no ipc 10.5.6. Besides, it is much more stable if you upgrade then starting off with an already unstable install Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jymboche Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 The someone is me.I attached the driver with my patches. Not working yet. Continue research. Hey slice. Its been almost a month since you have written anything. Any new development for the 88e8040 driver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsalac Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 @jymboche: YOu can follow the development of the driver in this topic: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...135637&st=0 There are at least downloadable kernel extensions,which don't work (yet). It's more probable that Slice will post the final working solution/kext there. Adam btw: +1 Slice, i'm waiting for this driver ,too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Dman Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Well I think it maybe supported in Snow Leopard here's the the part of the plist: <key>Yukon-88E804Z</key> <dict> <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key> <string>com.apple.iokit.AppleYukon2</string> <key>EnableLowPwr</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>IOClass</key> <string>yukon2osx</string> <key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key> <string>0x435411ab</string> <key>IOProviderClass</key> <string>IOPCIDevice</string> <key>MACNumber</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>Model</key> <string>Yukon Gigabit Adapter 88E804Z Singleport Copper SA</string> That's from AppleYukon2.kext from Snow Leopard 10A261.

Neonkoala Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Well I think it maybe supported in Snow Leopard here's the the part of the plist: <key>Yukon-88E804Z</key> <dict> <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key> <string>com.apple.iokit.AppleYukon2</string> <key>EnableLowPwr</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>IOClass</key> <string>yukon2osx</string> <key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key> <string>0x435411ab</string> <key>IOProviderClass</key> <string>IOPCIDevice</string> <key>MACNumber</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>Model</key> <string>Yukon Gigabit Adapter 88E804Z Singleport Copper SA</string> That's from AppleYukon2.kext from Snow Leopard 10A261. As a3Dman says it is supported in Snow Leopard, althought I haven't got to a desktop that doesn't crash to test it but AppleYukon2 displays an active en0 link when I boot with activity on the port. Currently it isn't reading my MAC address correctly though as it goes to 00:11:22:33:44:55. I have also tried the kexts under Leopard but they won't load, I don't think any Snow Leopard kexts will. Wait until Snow Leopard Grand Master for support. I'll report back if I find any more information after discovering this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neonkoala Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hmm, what's this... Works perfectly except for incorrectly detected MAC address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
