yukon 88e8050 ethernet chipset not working

[Gtellabs]

I have been messing with this for the better part of 3 days and its come to this asking in the forums I have searched found similar issues as other were having and tried there fixes but I still get no Ethernet

 

my motherboard is an Intel "d915gse"

 

its got built-in audio and ethernet model marval yukon 88e8050 .

 

I have tried editing the IONetworkingFamily.kext and add the correct hardware id's "which are "4361, 11AB" in the plugins yukon, and yukon2 kext's

 

repaired permissions all that good stuff to no avail I have tried multiple tuts on getting the lan working but it just wont work

 

anyone else have expericance with this chipset?

 

I have heard of others doing exactly what im doing and it seems to work for them I know i selected the right kext when I installed for the yukon chipset so im kinda lost not to mention im a real noob trying to learn his way please help if you can?

 

I also "had" issues with the audio but I did manage to fix that so my sound works now yay! this is the only thing not working correctly now !!.

(solved) I ended up figuring it out on my own.

 

after changing literally everything in the plist files in the ionetworkingfamily.kext to read 88e8050 and the proper hardware id's which are "0x43611AB" I finally managed to get the network working I still had to play around in the networking panels just literally "playing" around and I noticed that it now had an entry called en0 I think well played a bit more making changes and noticed the connection "led" on my router lit up and after changing a few more settings and doing a reboot the light began to blink !!! hells yes I now have a fully working install of leopard. from which I'm making this post! as far as I can tell the only "issue" I'm having is the display resolution which is stuck at 1024x768 but thats next on the fix list.
