I have OSX 10.4.8 up and running on a Giabyte GA-965P-S3 Motherboard. I have searched and read this forum for hours looking for a way to get my onboard network card working. It is a Marvel Yukon 88E8056. (lots of instructions for DS3 motherboards which I can't use unless I can edit the info.plist file)

I have tried to use the terminal to do the folowing:

sudo nano /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon.kext/Info.plist

search for "8053" (no quotes) and replace with "8056" (no quotes)

Then search for "4362" (no quotes) and replace with "4364"

 

It does not open the file. my sreen shows a blank teminal with control keys on the bottom and a block in the middle that says "new file".

I tried to browse to ......info.plist and as far as I can get is to IONetworkFamily.kext. I don't know how to open IONetworkFamily.kext to even look at it.

 

Can anyone help me get this thing working?? Tell me how to see the Info.plist file from the terminal?? Tell me how to tell if the Info.plist file even exists??

 

Thanks,

Roger

The directory is wrong, it's supposed to be

/System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon.kext/Contents/Info.plist

 

You will then be able to access the AppleYukon.kext info and modify it to make your ethernet working.

 

I have started a HOWTO on this motherboard. Check it out.
