It’s been a while since I’ve looked at osx on the laptop. If you are still having bother I’ll see if I can find the driver I used and send it to you.

Hi Pat,

Unfortunately I never got the wireless working. There was a small group of people who’d claimed to get the wireless working for that card but I never managed it with their driver. Gave up in the end as I bought kit that I knew was compatible.

Many thanks for telling. I haven’t really had time in order to learn this yet however I’ve bookmarked it so I will be able to go through it afterwards.

Did you ever get the wireless to work? I’m using similar drivers as yours and I would like to know if its possible to use the wireless.

I’m afraid I don’t have anything with that hardware so I don’t have experience with it. However after a quick googling session it looks like people have got it working under snow leopard. So if your not on that version I’d suggest giving it a try.

Yes, the internal screen isn’t recognised under the nvidia driver and only external works. It works under the generic gfx driver but you don’t get the correct resolution unfortunately. The problem appears to be laptop specific as there are many reports of the card working in the HP laptop. I’ve kinda given up on finding a solution after purchasing kit to do it properly. Unfortunately it would appear the community has given up on making this work which is a shame. The frustrating thing is there are drivers for ubuntu so it should be possible. I’m just not talented enough to find out how

Once you’ve made changes to the Info.plist make sure you had ran this set of commands otherwise it won’t work.

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

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

sudo diskutil repairPermissions /

sudo kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions

Also you need to go into the system preferences, select the new Ethernet link and click apply for it to work correctly.

Also make sure it’s not the wireless that’s detected as not having any cable as I found this to be the case in my first attempt at installing the OS. Currently the wireless will only work with an unsecured network so you need to make the Yukon adapter work by following the instructions above.
