Hey!

 

I have a sucessful install of Snow Leo on my Aspire One which works beautifully, even the GPU works just fine.

My netbook is a Acer Aspire One D250.

The other day I ordered a DW1490 off of ebay. I have put it in the mini PCIE port at the bottom of the machine.

OSX sees it, but I just cant turn it on.

How do I turn it on?

I have tried the switch on the front of my machine.

I have even tried turning it on by pressing the

icon in the top bar and it just does nothing.

I have tried that en0 up thing too.

What do I do to enable it?

It works under both Kubuntu and Windows (I have it tripple booted).

Thanks!

turn of quickboot or fast boot in bios.

or tape pin 20.

maybe have to rebrand the card too. but issue with no power is pin 20 or quickboot in bios.

 

or likely the smbios.plist is using wrong model or missing info.

 

one last thing in dsdt.aml it has Device (PCI0) .. under it should have _UID not _ADR

You = God (Thanks for replying, I was begging to think I would have to give up).

Right, Il give it a try and get back to you.

I have removed the non working card out to stop the machine from getting confused between the both. I have taped pin 20. Still nothing. I shal try quick boot! Thanks :)
