ragnagard Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Hi everyone here! I just get this beautiful OS installed a few days on this laptop... still looking for solutions to my minor hardware problems. (Yes usually called newbie or noob lol) First i give model & description of this pc(compare if you got something similar or equal ): Packard Bell Easy Note V 5609 series Intel dual core 1'66ghz Intel GMA945G chipset Intel ¿Realtek? HD audio (trying to get it working, just no sound lol) Intel GMA945G 128mb Video Card Intel PRO 10/100 VE Ethernet Intel Wireless 3945 ( still waiting for a solution or driver) To get the Intel 10/100 PRO VE NIC ethernet card i did: 1) Start Terminal 2) sudo -s 3) cd /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns <enter> 4) nano AppleIntel8254XEthernet.kext/Contents/Info.plist <enter> 5) under <key>IOPCIMATCH</key> Change the content to <string>0x10928086&0x0000ffff</string> Next things to do: (borrowed from this man: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=180550 ) You brought my NIC to life man. 6) nano AppleIntel8255x.kext/Contents/Info.plist <enter> 7) Under <key>IOPCIMatch</key> Add <string>0x10928086 0x10518086 0x27DC8086</string> 8) kextload AppleIntel8255x.kext <enter> 9) rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache <enter> 10) kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions <enter> 11) reboot 12) Enter into the System Preferences, configure the integrated ethernet and... get some fun with it Note: this could be useless for you... this looks like a try&get an error lol.... its only matter of changing the IOPCMATH acording to yours (see it in windows or linux). This is explained better than i could tell it, at other topics of this forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
