Original Atheros AR5006EG from a Macbook. No go under SL

magare · August 10, 2010

Hi,

I just got this card from ebay. It is apple branded AR50006. Tried to install it in my Acer Aspire but it does not work. I run SL 10.6.4. I gets recognized by Linux as the above model.

Anybody have any experience with this card and SL?

I don't need to re-brand it as it is an Apple product, right?

Should have OTB support with IO80211Family.kext, but no no.

Any help - greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

Anybody?

riws · August 12, 2010

Try to load the driver manually

magare · August 12, 2010

Tried that already but get

ath_dev_attach[3673]: unable to attach hardware; HAL status 3

ath_attach[3886] : ath_dev_attach Failed

start [/sourceCache/AirPortDriverAtheros9380/AirPortDriverAtheros9380-423.9.9/src/common/lmac/ath_dev/darwin/AtherosController.cpp:1189] load failed

why is it trying to load 9380-423.9.9 ??

Not sure.

riws · August 12, 2010

Tried with both Atheros Kext?

Are you in 32bit Mode?

magare · August 12, 2010

Tried /System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AirPortAtheros21.kext

and

/System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AirPortAtheros.kext

No go in 64 bit.

Trying 32 bit now ....

Stil No Go.

32 bit even worse as it doesn't give me any messages.

Does it need to be in 32b mode?

Any ideas?

What card shell I buy that will work 100% under SL?

Cheers!

riws · August 12, 2010

AirPortAtheros.kext is for 32bit only

AirPortAtheros21.kext are for both 32bit and 64bit

Whats the ID of this Airport card?

magare · August 12, 2010

OK. Did now that.

The id is 168c:001c

it is apple branded, bought from the Net.

Recognized and working OK in Win and Linux.

So far, tried a few other IO811..... kexts, no good.

Thanks for helping :-)

Post kextstat and dmesg after you load the kext manually.

Yep. Put the ID in both places.

I have to boot into 64bit as LAN no good in 32bit.

Cheers....trying without the kext soon...

riws · August 12, 2010

In 32bit it tries to load both kext'es, cause both have this ID.

magare · August 12, 2010

Tried without AirPortAtheros21.kext and without AirPortAtheros.kext still no good.

???

Do you think I can load in 64bit, or shall I boot into 32 again and try removing the kext?

riws · August 12, 2010

Try without AirPortAtheros21.kex in 32bit

magare · August 12, 2010

Tried both ways 64 without AirPortAtheros.kext and 32 without AirPortAtheros21.kext, still no go.

It has been 3 days since I install this card in, but no luck.

Should probably buy apple BCM94321MC ?

riws · August 12, 2010

Try with this Kext in 32bit.

Is Wifi turned on?

magare · August 12, 2010

No luck with PCIFix either.

I DO have a switch button on my laptop, but with this card its always on (at least in Win and Linux). I did not tamper the 20th pin thought. It's possible the switch button does not turn the card on, although it is visible to the system (lspci) . (The laptop originally had an Intel 4065bgn card and the switch was usable (in Win).

I will give up for now and go to sleep.

Thanks heaps for you help !!!!

Cheers!

magare · August 12, 2010

How can you tell if the card is switched on or off?

Original Atheros AR5006EG from a Macbook. No go under SL
