phandrew Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 I read many articles on yukon 88e8038 but I noticed nearly all of them is for the 10.4.x versions. I am wondering if there is a solution for an iPC 10.5.6. Anything would help!

PigBenis Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Well i cant say i do anything constructive as im new to this (first install was on saturday) so i just try a few things with the disk and when all fails, reinstall. The only few problems i have (upon install) are the ethernet, partial wireless works and sound, but that was easily fixed. Ethernet though, that's putting a fight against me.

phandrew Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 Big {censored} I FOUND THE SOLUTION! Step 1) Locate the AppleYukon.kext file and replace Yukon-88E8053 to Yukon-88E8038 > replace 0x43xxllab to 0x4325llab > replace Yukon gigabit adapter 88eXXXX to yukon gigabit adapter 88e8038 Step 2) Get kext helper b7 (dl it somewhere) and put the AppleYukon file into it! and press easy install! Wait a few minutes and there should be some message box that pops up. Step 3) Thats basically it!

PigBenis Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Awesome, imma give it a shot when i get home; Where do you locate the kext in the drive? Or should i extract it from the install disc. EDIT: Ok so yes, i found out how to access the kext's, just one thing; it's 435211ab. I had 2 numbers mixed up and never got it right, as soon as i checked on my lappy (windows), noticed it, switched it back and voila, internet works. Thanks for the tips!
