PCI Ethernet Slot active, Built-in Ethernet is not plugged in.

[patton]

Hi, well, I figured out my problem for a minutes. Now Ethernet works for me but then I installed viarhine driver, it recognize my ethernet card and wow I can connect me to internet.

• Built-in Ethernet is currently active and has the IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. You are connected
  to the Internet via Built-in Eithernet
  

 

But when I go to the osx Network(System preferences) for the first time the ethernet detected connected fine. But when I restarted for the first time it stopped working. Appears me this

• PCI EThernet Slot j6B2: PCI Ethernet Slot is currently active. PCI Ethernet Slot j6B2 has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the inthernet.
  
• Built-in Ethernet: This cable for Built-in Ethernet is not plugged in.
  

 

Any idea why could this be? to cause to leave it as before?

 

I am trying to get now the built-in ethernet card to work again, but I dont know how to enable it.

I tried to do this.

 

Linux:

$ lspci | grep Eth 
Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6105 [Rhine-III] (rev 86)
$ lspci -n 
1106:3106 (rev 86)

 

vendor:1106

device:3106

Mac Ox86:

Edit this file, searching the string tag and I add 0x11063106

# cd /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext/Contents/
# chmod 644 Info.plist
$ nano Info.plist
<string>0x813910ec 0x13001186 0x12111113 0x11063106</string>
# rm /System/Library/Extensions.mkext 
# rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache
$ sudo mv ViaRhine.kext /System/Library/Extensions/.
$ sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/ViaRhine.kext
$ sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/ViaRhine.kext
$ sudo -s diskutil repairpermissions /
# kextload /System/Library/Extensions/kext.kext

Ethernet works fine for me in Linux, physical connections OK. I think so, I'm having trouble connecting to the internet using OS X. , What is going on? How Can I troubleshoot this problem?

drivers problem? :pirate2:

 

Thanks a lot!
