Hey Guys and gals,

 

Just new to this read up alot on how to do this but running into a few snags, 10.4.6/10.4.7 installed no issues with internet connection at all, if I use the 10.4.8 install Jas I get no internet at all and under peferences/network it's self assigning a 169 as my ip, entering manually didn't help can't figure it out... so I put 10.4.7 back on knowing my nic works fine and I have connection, so I tried to update to 10.4.8 and same issue again...I am also trying to read on how to get my sound/video card to work properly but I just can't figure it out.

 

My system is

 

Asus P5Dl2 Rev 2

Pentium D 3.4 Oc'd to 4ghz

Ocz Gold Xtc ddr2 667mhz oc'd to 783mhz

Realtek Hd Audio *onboard of course*

Ati X850XT 256ram Pci-e....

 

Everything sytem wise runs great just sound/video and only nic in 10.48 that won't work!

 

Thanks Guys!!

 

Doug

You need to replace ionetworking kext with one from 104.7 or earlier. This is known problem.

JaS:

"the 10.4.3 ionetworking kext is on every iso,just mount it and use pacifist to open the osinstall.mpkg,then do a find for ionetworking , take the one out of the patches not from essentials.pkg"

 

You can take the same way one from 10.4.7 install directly from pacifist

Thanks for the response guys, now with being totally new to this, I have both dvd's here... 10.4.7 and 10.4.8... what is this "PACIFIST" you talk of? Since I know this is a known issue and resolved easy... what's my option for X850XT to get it working clost to 100% as possible and sound?

 

Btw, this isn't dmg file, it's the full dvd so I wouldn't thing I would have to mount anything would I? I found this Pacifist 2.0.1 I think...

 

Thanks again guys for takin it easy on me, normally as a noob they get slammed for not using searh but I did this but just don't understand how to use certain commands and such yet to get stuff done!

 

THanks

OK so I've reinstalled 10.4.7 completely since i Know the nic works fine that way, what benefit is it to upgrade to 10.4.8 since I personally don't see it and with being a noob prob won't ever lol, so now my next battle is getting my sound to work and video card,

 

AUdio is Hd Audio look slike 882 according to device manager by realtek, is there patches to just download to get this to work and Ati X850XT?

 

Thanks...

I've tried to replace kexts in 10.4.8 with old ones and every time I make a change I get a kernel panic with the latest EXP V6. What am I doing wrong? I've only tried the IOPCIFamily.kext and the IO8211Family.kext

 

Will it be safe to install the old IONetworking kext, or will I probably run into the same problem? I have an SSE2 system.
