kmand Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Is there a EDP ethernet fix for Lion on the D620 coming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted November 1, 2011 Administrators Share Posted November 1, 2011 it should work.... if not then your ethernet might have issues. i have 2 d620's one ethernet does not work because they used a bios password wipe software witch seems to have wiped the ethernets rom i think it was called asset recovery. and the other works fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawhnL5 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Ethernet doesn't work out of the box for OS X. You need to install EDP. Once EDP is installed and you have restarted, go to Network, and it should say a new Network Interface has been added to your system, called Ethernet. Now you are able to use Ethernet.

kmand Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 Of course I am running EDP 2.1. Ethernet does show up in network settings, but it says no cable is connected. However, in fact the router shows link. Also the little led's on the D620 ethernet jack light up. The one closer to the case edge stays on while the interior led blinks. Ifconfig does not show en0. I can dual boot this D620 to SL. Ethernet works fine when I boot to SL (with EDP 1.9). Ifconfig shows en0, network settings shows connected, outer led is off, inner one blinks. Any ideas? I've seen some postings about editing some config files else where, but I thought EDP 2.1 took care of it. One symptom of no ethernet is apparently that the app store won't validate (I do have wifi working). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 In EDP 2.1 the etherned kext was damaged. Please use EDP 2.2 beta. Link: http://cl.ly/2F0X0L033D271S0t3A3W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmand Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 In EDP 2.1 the etherned kext was damaged. Please use EDP 2.2 beta. Link: http://cl.ly/2F0X0L033D271S0t3A3W Yes, beta 2.2 solved the ethernet issue, thanks! It also has GMA950 brightness fix working. So the next thing I have to resolve going from SL to Lion is the sleep issue. Is anything known to work? Previously I had used the http://www.osxlatitude.com/getting-sleep-to-work-on-your-dell/ instructions on SL. Now I see EDP has a sleepenabler option. Is that a substitute for the OSX side of the manual instructions? Does either work on D620/GMA950/Lion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Of course sleep works too. You just need to set a password in BIOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmand Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Of course sleep works too. You just need to set a password in BIOS. Yes, I know about the password in BIOS. I had this working on SL. I'm just wondering if the instructions in http://www.osxlatitude.com/getting-sleep-to-work-on-your-dell/ are still necessary, or if the EDP "sleepenabler option" does all the configuration except setting the password. In addition I'm confused since https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/794-mac-os-x-lion-install-guide-for-d620/ says sleepenabler doesn't work.

Administrators Bronxteck Posted November 7, 2011 Administrators Share Posted November 7, 2011 well regarding the last link it works fine on my intel graphics... add a bios password like wiki states the terminal stuff now can be done from edp we integrated it into the sleep fix option... not to be confused with sleep enabler kext.
