Many Install Problems on Dell D820(wireless,network,PCCard...)

Hi all,

 

After reading a lot of forums threads, testing a lot, still have some problems with my hardware:

Dell Latitude D820 intelcore duo t2300 (1.6ghz), graphics IntelGMA950, 2Go RAM.

I'm on 10.4.8 kernel 8.8.1 with fresh install with JAS DVD 10.4.6 DVD and upgrade with EgWan patch 10.4.8 (Daemon's kernel SSE3). After many tests, I used this way in order to see my GMA950 correctly set with QE/CI out of the box.

 

My problems are :

 

- No network at all : i have a Broadcom netExtreme gigabit 57xx (device id 1600) as internal and Dell trueMobile 1390 (Broadcom device id 4311) as wireless. After fixing en0>en1 problem, my wireless is correctly seen as airport device but i'm not able to configure it (airport assistant don't connect to the card and no network is seen) My WLAN works well as another laptop under XP correctly connect to it at the same time. And my internal lan don't see anything too ; i've modified corresponding kexts to add my id device but no luck ! My device is seen in the OS but nor DHCP nor ping give any result ...

 

- No PCCARD : i would like to test another solution to have some network since i have an old 3com lan pccard and a wireless pccard (Connectland i think). But i can't get pccard to work since the only drivers i found are for TexasInstruments Cardbus and mine is a "02micro" or something like that.

 

If anyone has a solution to one or more of my problems, i will be very grateful !

 

Thanks a lot !
