Alright so i've tried multiple methods on to get my Marvell Yukon 88E8036 ethernet adapter to work, but to no avail. I tried Killerz method shown below and i've also tried another method with changing the kext and adding some lines of code (also shown below) I'm still not able to get it to work with Jas 10.4.8 SSE2 SSE3 cd. I installed Tiger fine and the only things that don't work are ethernet, wireless (4965agn) and my audio (pretty sure it's the sigmatel 9220) I'm wondering if anyone else has any insight on this topic. I posted my Ubuntu Hardware Information screenshot below with my ethernet device as the focus.

 

Also my sysinfo is:

Sony Vaio VGN-FZ290

Intel GM965 chipset.

Intel Core2 Duo CPU T5250 @ 1.50GHz

Marvell Yukon 88E8036 Ethernet Adapter

Intel 4965agn Wireless Adapter

Sigmatel 9220 audio chip.

 

Killerz Method

 

1) Get the device id of the ethernet controller.

Go into Windows -> Device Manager.

 

Find the ethernet controller and get Properties on it.

For mine, it is

 

vendor 11AB

Device 4351

 

it might be different between machines. please check!

 

 

Click the Details tab and read the vendor id and device id. The vendor id is going to be "11AB"

 

2) In OSX, go into Terminal and edit the following file:

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

if u get an "Open with" dialog, right click the file and click "Show Package Contents"

 

Scroll down and find the following:

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>

<string>0x436211AB</string>

Replace the bold numbers with the device id you found above.

 

Save the file.

Exit the file.

 

3) Delete the following files. In Terminal, type (or copy and paste):

sudo rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.mkext

sudo rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache

 

4) Repair permissions. In Terminal, type:

diskutil repairPermissions /

 

5) Reboot

 

My device id is vendor 11AB (Same as Killerz)

and my product is 4351 (same as Killerz)

 

followed his directions. didn't work. I tried going through the Info.plist and changing the name of the device to match my 88E8036 too and that didn't do anything. Eventually I just changed my Info.plist to this and it still doesn't work. I'm wondering if someone can point me in the right direction.
