So with the new codec dump, is the mute working? If so can you please share the codec dump.

THanks a lot.

 

Unfortunately - not.

Only SPDIF out added (which is useless for me anyway).

[jaysonz]

hey if you want mute and other things to work for 9200 . here the kext for it

 

 

use kext helper to install it .

Thanks, mate!

This is funny, but even we have identical laptops - they behave differently.

I mean - with your kexts i GOT mute, but my right headphones channel disappeared.

 

With my old kexts - both channels are OK, but no mute.

 

And in both cases - internal speaker still audible, even when i plug headphones in. And line-in/mic-in still not working (always works internal mic).

 

This is, of course, not the thread, where to discuss sound problems but i really appreciate you for your help.

Somebody have this kext (BCM5787M) : http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=903347 working but with hardcoded mac, this works fine but with some routers others not.

You're THE MAN!!!

An hour ago got my BCM5752 (pci14e4,1600) working like a charm: MAC's - OK, DHCP's - OK, 100M/1000M - OK!!!

 

For those, desperate Dell Latitude D620 owners, or who esle, by the chance, owns this card - attached 100% working kext.

NB! Place this kext to /System/Library/Extensions AND to the "/System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/Plugins" folder

Do not forget to DELETE existing kext, and "chown/chmod/repare perms" of course!

 

I'm so happy, 'coz at workplace we don't have WiFi, and at last i can use MY OWN laptop instead this terrible monster, i have here...

 

(sorry for my english)

 

Marvellous ! Now the Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit BCM5752, of ven id 14e4 and dev id 1600, is fully supported in my HP Compaq dx7200.

 

Thanks for the attachment.

Here it is the magic kext for you!!! You can use DHCP or Manual IP configuration with MAC Address Assigned.

 

P.S.

Thanks a lot to this wonderful forum and all people involved

Thank you to all involved in getting the 5752 (0x1600) working!

 

Any progress with the 5754 (0x167a)?

 

I've got a Dell Precision 390 that uses that onboard NIC, and I'm happy to help with any testing/development if necessary... I just don't know where to begin starting from scratch.

Tim here it is mine modded for you, try it and let me know if it's ok

 

Put it in /System/Library/Extensions, remember to repair permissions... as always but you know it. Do you know it? lol

Hi,

I've got a dell studio with a Broadcom NetLink BCM5784M Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4 : 1698], do you think one of the patch could make it work ?

Thanks very much

I've made it for you try and give feedback if it's ok.

[Boombeng]

Thank you,

I installed it with kexthelper but i didn't have the time to repair permission, the system freezes with a grey screen, may be i shouldn't use Kexthelper ?

[FlyingSaucer]

Press F8 at start and put -v -s check the file system and mount it, repair permissions manually with chmod and chown remove kextcache and restart if it fails, you are not lucky remove the kext and you will be fine but without ETHERNET I'm sorry.

[Boombeng]

I'll do that this evening, but as a good noob it will take me time...

Thank you again , i'll tell you if it's OK as soon as possible

[Boombeng]

It was impossible to reboot in any mode, so i repaired permissions with the instal dvd disk utility but it didn't make it work to reboot... I wonder if the problem can come from conflict with another broadcom patch i did install (BCM 43xx) to run airport

I have a Dell d610 that I have for the most part working . My wireless will work but only if my router is un-secured.

 

I need a Broadcom NetLink BCM57XX Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4 : 1677]

 

Does anyone know of a working one ?

 

I tried the driver by Eternal Empty and is crashed my system.

 

Thanks in Advance.

First, I feel sorry about my kext crashed your system.

 

for 1677, before you use it, you perhaps want to modify the info.split array lines first, it is possible to to make it work by just few small changes or you may event don't need to do any changes ...

 

but you need to add your 1677 into the array list first. by using pure TEXTEDITOR only.

 

crash is very likely that the system has found the hardware by the ID is not existed for the system to register, that is why ..

 

anyway ..good luck, if I have 1677 with me now .I will do one for you to test, sadly ..I don't have one with me .

Hardcoding the MacAddress require the rewrite of the GetHardwareAddress function, the other kext for 5787m unluckly don't work on my pc, so i can't try, but here is my mod:

 

0002E90E: 55 89 E5 8B│55 08 8B 4D│0C B8 BA 00│00 00 90 90

0002E91E: 88 01 B8 AD│00 00 00 90│90 88 41 01│B8 F0 00 00

0002E94E: 90 88 41 05│31 C0 C9 C3│90 90 90 90│90 90 90 90

 

if someone want to try,he has just to open the kext with an hexeditor then replace the bytes at the 2e90e hex

with these, values in bold are the macaddress

 

this is the asm code, if someone want to see how it works

Thanks for the update. I hope I did not offend you, It was not your fault, just the driver from your update caused my system to crash ( not boot up). I just re-installed the os and I am fine again. I did happen to have an old driver that I did not think would work and I installed it and it did. so I know have a 100% working OSX Dell D610. I will post my kext files in a new Posting along with the steps I took to get the video, cdrom, wireless, lan working.

 

Jeff

[EternalEmpty]

No, not at all, I can live with that .. haha

 

 

as I don't expect the kext can do all the job as what god can.

 

BUT, I DO FEEL good to know that you have all the parts working ...

 

 

 

ps.( god can be helpless sometimes too...um ..most of time ..um ..when the time you need him the most... ya ..so ...he only need you when you have time to go to church on sunday and donate your pocket money or 1/10 or 1/6? of your total income ... .. haha )

Can somebody help me install the necessary drivers for Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabith Ethernet?? Model: BCM5750A1... Please help me. I read on the first page of this post that there are some drivers for my network card (thinhead's post).. But the link in the post is dead... Please help me.. THANKS IN ADVANCE

Hi GeniusAction

 

Do you help me ?

 

My card in machine is broadcom 5755 (chipset: intel 5400) 14e4, 167B.

Do you make a kext for this?

 

I suffer for a long time with this.

[anomaly]

No love for BCM5755 yet? I've tried using and editing a few of the AppleBCM kexts without any luck (on a D630).

Can any of these patches apply for the Dell D420? I am running 10.5.5 on d420 and the only problems I have left to fix are sound, screen wake from sleep and built in ethernet.

 

Thanks
