Chilibird Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Hey all, I finally got OS X running on my hardware using the guide at lifehacker for a Gigabyte UD3P board. All in all, seems to be working great... sleep/shutdown works, even (Not counting weird graphical glitches when waking up from sleep). Only one complaint... Network Configuration doesn't seem to see that my ethernet card, a Trendnet TEG-PCITXR / Realtek 8169 (Whichever name you perfer) is even there. I have two ethernet options in network config for my two onboard ethernet ports, but nothing for my card... System Profiler does seem to see the card as an 'ethernet card', however. Plugging the ethernet cord into the card doesn't establish any connection. Am I just messing up something basic, or does a driver exist for the card that would make the OS 'see' the card for a connection? Thanks! -CB Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/203980-realtektrendnet-ethernet-card/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
midian Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 which "OS X" are you running? leopard? snow leopard? which version? Im running Snow Leopard 10.6 atm ( trying to update today ) and my Realtek kexts wont work on x64 so i removed them to install the 64bit kexts but they dint work. So maybe, if your running on x64, the kexts just dont work and you can join me searching the RealtekR1000.kext for SL =) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/203980-realtektrendnet-ethernet-card/#findComment-1369835 Share on other sites More sharing options...
