Any IOPCIFamily's around that further enumerates bus?

[Zaxboi]

Hey there, have an HP C500 laptop. Had Leopard running on it great with everything

working. Have just installed LeoHazard 10.6.2 and with some additional hunting

around for a 27A2 PCI ID laptop GMA950 kext for Snow Leopard, and a working

IONetworkingFamily to get the RTL8139 up and going properly, Conexant sound going

via VooDoo and arch=i386, we're all good EXCEPT for the onboard Broadcom WiFi.

Now in Leopard I had to use a special IOPCIFamily to enumerate the bus "more

completely" otherwise it wouldn't see the Broadcom PCIe card. Same issue here with

Snow Leopard, everything but the Broadcom is being enumerated/brought online

but the Broadcom WiFi (just a PCI ID 4311 ordinary deal). I tried the IOPCIFamily

from Leopard I had but like most every kext I've tried from Leopard, kextload complains

with "malformed macho-o binary 0xfeedface"... What is the deal with that anyway, no Leopard

kext binaries work? Anyway, is there either a way to get that IOPCIFamily kext going

or does anyone know of any "super" IOPCIFamily's for Snow Leopard I might try

to make this happen? Any help appreciated, thanks!

a "super" IOPCIFamily's for Snow Leopard exists already. Here

also a "super" Search engine exists. Try using it next time.

Well as it turns out, that link points to a version that already seems

bundled in with LeoHazard's 10.6.1-10.6.2 distribution (I did a 'sum'

on the binaries to verify).

 

I also followed the thread from this link and tried the v2.6.2 version

mentioned at the bottom, system boots just fine with it but no joy,

PCIe on that unit still not enumerated properly so WiFi unavailable

unlike the IOPCIFamily I had for Leopard which brought it to life.

 

Could it be a power management issue and perhaps linked as well

to IOACPIFamily?
