did you bother trying what the person who replied to your post wrote?

 

The error you got means the permission on the .kext are incorrect. To be incorrect you need to have it already installed in the first place, no need for anybody to send it to you

I did the same thing but its not working.

If you installed the Universal 10.4.4 DVD with the 10.4.5 update, then you got the same issue as I did. I actually solved it doing this instead:

 

The issue can be fixed by loading up terminal and typing:

 

cd /System/Library/Extensions

sudo find nameofkext.kext -type d -exec /bin/chmod 0755 {} \;

sudo find nameofkext.kext -type f -exec /bin/chmod 0644 {} \;

 

Try it and let me know. Which DVD install disk are you using?
