It's about a week that I'm searching for a solution to let my USB works!! ...but I haven't found anything yet...

 

This is my HW:

 

MOtherBoard:

Processor DualCore AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2200 MHz (11 x 200) 4200+

Chipset nVIDIA nForce 6100-430, AMD Hammer

 

video:

Radeon X1300 Series (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM)

 

Network NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller

 

 

Controller USB1 nVIDIA MCP61 - OHCI USB 1.1 Controller

Controller USB2 nVIDIA MCP61 - EHCI USB 2.0 Controller

 

I found in this topic the drivers (it should be the right one!). I downloaded this one PCGenUSBEHCI-2.7.0.zip (I have Osx 10.4.9 Uphuck 1.4a)

 

Now I don't know how to install them... I readed the installation.txt but (i don't know anything about osx and the terminal!) I didn't understand how to install the ".kext"!!

 

Could someone explain (in a very simple way - i'm stupid!! ;) ) how to do to install them?!??!

 

Tank's so mutch (and sorry for my english!!)

:D

Hi, the standard procedure I use to install kext is:

 

-"sudo -s"

-enter root password

-"sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/file.kext"

-"sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/file.kext"

-"sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/file.kext"

 

I don't know if you're using this same method, but I know that if you don't change the permissions of your kext with chmod and chown as I described, you'll end up with an error message.

As I said in my last post, you have to do these commands:

 

-"sudo -s"

-enter root password

-"sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/file.kext"

-"sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/file.kext"

 

before you do the kextload, otherwise it doesn't work
