ttyseven Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I am currently going insane about my wireless card (Atheros 5005g, MiniPCI) I installed 10.4.5 IO80211Family.knext and succeeded the driver to load, telling me adding 1 personality to kernel and stuff, but there is no Interface created. I did an "kextcache -k", removed cache files manually and rebooted over and over again, but nothing. I also tried the warm reset trick from windows to OS X. So I checked for "/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/" and looked for "NetworkingInterfaces.plist" but uuppss, nothing in there?! I examined the preferences.plist file and could not find anything about the driver. The strange thing is, if I do an "kextstat" the Module is shown. If I do an "IOreg -l" I can't find any info on it... any Tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttyseven Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 A small update: - I tried with airport on console -> "getInterfaceWithName" Error - dmesg shows: start [/pathtoblablablabla/AtherosController.cpp:391] loaded unsucessfully Ok seems to be broken somehow, any suggestions?

Rammjet Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Have you verified that your vendor and device id combination are in the info.plist? According to Google, vendor=168c device=001a You can verify this by going to Windows -> Device Manager. Find the wireless device. Get Properties. Click the Details tab Look at the file specified here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=194045 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
