glemley8 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I was able to install Mountain Lion on my D630, and everything seems to be working well except for the wifi, which it doesn't recognize. I tried replacing the kext given in this thread with no luck. Any suggestions? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDubU Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I think it depends upon which WiFi card you have. Mine is a DW1490 which works perfectly under Mountain Lion without any kexts beyond what EDP adds. http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=biz&cs=RC1246070&sku=JC977&baynote_bnrank=0&baynote_irrank=1&~ck=dellSearch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glemley8 Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 I bought a Dell DW1390 wifi card for $3 shipped on eBay, and it worked right off the bat when booted. Here is a list of things remaining to fix: Some key mappings are incorrect (e.g. tilde key outputs an odd S-like symbol) Battery indicator says 20:00 hours when charged, and doesn't deplete when my d-bay battery drains Boot and shutdown is extremely slow! If anyone has input for these, let me know. Thanks for the help so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted October 5, 2012 Administrators Share Posted October 5, 2012 Re: keyboard mapping: - download and install DoubleCommand. Then, in System Preferences, setup the DoubleCommand pref pane as follows: . check 'Command Key acts as Option Key' . check 'Option Key acts as Command Key' . check 'PC style Home and End keys' . click on 'Activate' + 'User' + 'System' buttons - download Ukelele and copy the appropriate Logitech keyboard mappings to /Library/KeyboardLayouts What EDP kexts/options did you install?
