reed187 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Hi folks, I'm using a P4P800-X Mainboard with Onboard Network (Realtek 8139) I installed the new 10.4.8 and it works absolutely stable. Good Work JaS!! But other than on version 10.4.6 the network doesn't work any more. Are there any recommondations how to make it work? As well I am using a NVidia 6200. The MacVidia-Driver 1.0.8 worked with the Version 10.4.6 but not with 10.4.8 Thanks in advance Reed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reed187 Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 Hi again, basicly all problems fixed. The Network I could fix by copying the AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext from the 10.4.6 to the 10.4.8. For my video card I could use the Titan driver. It's just amazing how things work now. Thanks to all developers for their great work. If there is a patch coming out for multi-monitor support for FX6200 I'll be happiest man alive.

ceynox Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Maybe a stupid question, but since i don't own a JaS 10.4.6 DVD, can you pm me the kext (RTL8139)??? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rammjet Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Download Pacifist from Charlessoft. In OSX, insert your installer DVD and let it mount on the Desktop. In Pacifist, File menu -> Open: DVD -> /System/Installation/Packages/Essentials.pkg In Essentials, click the arrows as follows: System -> Library -> Extensions Find the IONetworkingFamily.kext and select it. (The Ethernet kext is included in the IONetworking kext) In the Pacifist toolbar, select: Install Delete the files: /System/Library/Extensions.mkext and /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache Repair permissions (in Disk Utility) for good measure. Reboot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jan_187 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Tnx Rammjet, very good description. However, I dont have the old DVD anymore, so I hope someone can upload that file somewhere. If not, Ill just re-download it no problem. Tnx again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 However, I dont have the old DVD anymore This works for any install DVD except the first JaS 10.4.8 install DVD. If you have the new "reseed" 10.4.8 JaS install DVD, it will work. The install DVD installs the old files first and then when the 10.4.8 Combo update kicks in, they get replaced. Following the instructions above extracts the older kext. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jan_187 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Okay cool. Tnx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceynox Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Thnx for the help, and i did manage to get the IONetworkingkext to install, but when i boot in verbose mode - with the older kext! (hotiso 10.4.6) - it "can't allocate/can't define dependencies" and some more errors... I read http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...&hl=realtek which obviously is my problem... In that topic they are talking about a SS3.pkg from the JaS 10.4.7 dvd, and that solution seems to work fine... but since i don't own that dvd, maybe someone can pm me the right kext file? In the same topic there is also suggested that changing the device id... but how do i do that? Another thing is that i can't understand that JaS didn't fix this error, of course i think he did a fantastic job, and i am very thankful for that, but it's unfortunate he didn't catch this error since so much onboard nic's are using a realtek chip... EDIT: Now also tried to get IONETWORKING.KEXT from the Goatsce... DVD, again no luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jan_187 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Once we get a working total solution we should somehow make an installer that easyly fixes this. Theres many users with this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceynox Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Well, as i read in another topic, installing a 10.4.6 with everything working and then upgrading with the JaS DVD works... i'm gonna check it now... hope it'll work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jan_187 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Well, that wouldnt really be a solution imho Must have an easier quicker way for sure.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jan_187 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Okay, the solution to this is getting the AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext from 10.4.6 dvd and putting that in the /System/Library/Extensions folder. Then do in terminal: cd /System/Library/Extensions sudo chown -R root:wheel AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext sudo chmod -R 755 AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext Then delete the extensions.mkext and extensions.kextcache in /System/Library and reboot. It should work from then on. It did for me. Where to get the the file? It's yb4ja3 on tinyurl. Edit: It did not work with the RTL1xxx_1.02 driver posted on these forums and not with the way rammjet described for me, it did work with the way I described in this post, I hope it can help more people. Cleaner way of doing this Okay, a way to do this that is probably cleaner is replacing the kext in the IONetworkingFamily instead of just throwing it in the extensionsfolder. Put the AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext on your desktop and open the terminal. Do the following commands (case sensitive): cd /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/ sudo rm -R ./AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext sudo cp -R /Users/YOUR_USERNAME_HERE/Desktop/AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext ./ sudo chown -R root:wheel ./AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext sudo chmod -R 755 ./AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext Then delete the extensions.mkext and extensions.kextcache in /System/Library and reboot.

PascalW Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 What I was wondering, the people who get it working do you have an onboard 8139 chip or an pci network card with 8139 chip? That might be the difference, cause whatever I do It just doesn't work. No matter which kext I use. I've got an onboard NIC chip btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gio on the mic Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 same problem as PascalW. onboard 8139 NOT working with the kext from 10.4.6. AppleRTL8139.kext gives dependency errors Any idea is welcome... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostagain Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 My system, ASUS M2V-TVM, with AMD 64 and on-board NIC Realtek RTL8139/810x worked with the 10.4.3 for X86 - Patched but does not work with the 10.4.8 install. Will try Jan_187's solution and report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostagain Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Well.....I tried Jan_187's method several times but couldn't get it to work. Tried re-installing the 10.4.3 version that I knew had network working with the Realtek 8139 .kext. and then re-installing 10.4.8 as an upgrade. Didn't work at all. Then got the idea of re-installing 10.4.3, copying the IONetworkingFamily.kext to a data drive, re-installing 10.4.8 as an upgrade, then after re-starting, I copied the IONetworkingFamily.kext to the /System/Library/Extensions folder, fixed permissions and re-started. Voila! I have networking. A little long winded method of fixing it but WTH, it worked. Now on to getting my video display to work in more than 1024x768.

weirdlookinguy Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Hey, noob here. I installed 10.4.8 but I really don't want to torrent another DVD just for this one file.

Kapitan Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I answer to this, because i have JaS 10.4.8 and a problem with the 8139 package. The problem is it cannot find dependencies i think, infact in the Info.plist it asks the 1.4.8 version of IONetworking. Any solution? P.S.: If you want i post the exact problem (but right now i have a kernel panic because i changed that 1.4.8 in a 1.5.0 ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
