krrr Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 well, here is the beef. this laptop of mine is IBM R40e, Celery 2ghz, 256 mb ram, and their are three ways to get network running, below is the specs of network. 1) Wireless card is D-Link DWL 630 Airplus Wifi pcmcia card. (i know i could had got dwl 122 usbwifi which works with osx86, but now too late). now this looks like best option where i can get network running cause before booting if i give boot option as platform=OSX86 then i get atheros poweroff option near system tray as you can see in screenshot. But sadly nothing active in Sys-pref>network. 2) USB-Eth dongle. below is output in fedora linux (dual booting with Osx86) ---------------------------------------------- [anshu@Fedora4 ~]$ dmesg | grep pegasus pegasus: v0.6.12 (2005/01/13), Pegasus/Pegasus II USB Ethernet driver pegasus 1-2:1.0: setup Pegasus II specific registers pegasus 1-2:1.0: eth1, ADMtek ADM8511 "Pegasus II" USB Ethernet, 00:00:4e:11:16:c6 usbcore: registered new driver pegasus ----------------------------------------------- 3) On board broadcom slot. below is output in fedora linux. --------------------------------------------- [anshu@Fedora4 ~]$ dmesg | grep BCM eth0: Tigon3 [partno(BCM95901A50) rev 3001 PHY(5705)] (PCI:33MHz:32-bit) 10/100BaseT Ethernet 00:06:1b:e0:6a:80 [anshu@Fedora4 ~]$ cat network\ card.txt Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5901 100Base-Tx internal lancard. ---------------------------------------------- Now common guys and cute gals, please help me in getting network on this . i am soon going to use stuff related to DWL 650 which i think some ppl have managed to get wifi working, but still i am waiting for nice guidance from all you people. Replies will be greatl appreciated, Anshu. a.k.a krrr.

nixblicker Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 About the USB-Ethernet! Check out this side! http://www.sustworks.com/site/news_usb_ethernet.html Looks like they have a driver but not as universal binary. But take a look yourself! Greets!

lemmego2 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 I tried and tried, the code comes in two flavors so to speak, development and deployment. Typically development code has hooks and debug info for fixing bugs turned on, often designed to aid coders by dumping text into console or similar, at the expense of larger file sizes and/or speed. I can't (yet?) get the deployment code to compile :-( only the development stuff. Still it does output a Universal kext (as reported by Get Info)! and I managed to finagle it into a Installer Package which ran ok on my PPC Mac. Have to contact the author or Peter Sichel (owner of sustworks.com) to iron out the kinks. Here is the Installer package, compressed (zipped?) with the Tiger Create Archive File menu option: USBPegasusEthernet_TigerUniversal104.zip If it fails to install, right click show package contents, open contents folder, copy Archive.pax.gz somewhere (Desktop?), unarchive that, then use Terminal with sudo to copy it to /System/Library/Extensions sudo -s (enter, you will be prompted for an admin password) cp -R ~/Desktop/USBPegasusEthernet.kext/ /System/Library/Extensions/USBPegasusEthernet.kext NOTE CAPITAL R and space between kext/ and /System verify that file is owned by root:wheel and chmod to 755 if needed cd /System/Library/Extensions ls -la chown -R root:wheel USBPegasusEthernet.kext chmod -R 755 USBPegasusEthernet.kext Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/9075-super-close-to-get-wireless-and-usb-ethernet-working-help-me/#findComment-58061 Share on other sites More sharing options...
