T410 Maveriks Expresscard not full working

Hello everybody.

 Have just arrived to this forum because have installed Mavericks on my Lenovo T410 with Intelhd graphics folowing this tutorial:

https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/5798-install-osx-on-lenovo-thinkpad-t410s/

 

 I tried with Mountain Lion but didn´t work (maybe the  Extra don´t know), but Mavericks works fine.

 

 I have this card for FW800 that´s fully working on windows,

http://www.startech.com/eu/es/Tarjetas-perifericos/FireWire/Tarjeta-ExpressCard-FireWire-800-1394B-de-2-Puertos~EC1394B2

When I plugged hot or even before restarting (tried both) can see it on the top bar, but it doesn´t detect devices from the FW800.

 On system hardware I can see the main Fw400 firewire integrated one (Ricoch chipset) that doesn´t work well on windows. Couln´t try it on Mavericks because my device is FW800, so need to buy a cable, but maybe a waste of money, since isn´t fast enouth on windows I doubt will work well on Mavericks.

 

  Any suggestion that I could make Maverkiks "see" the FW ports of the Expresscard?, the card is detected and I even can shutdown it from the top bar, but the Fw800 ports are not detected, so I guess it must be added manually maybe?

 Thanks in advance.

 Any suggestion will be wellcome.

 Solved!!,

 I installed Mavericks 10.9.1 that seems have some kext problems with expresscard on some 2010 models (even on mac).

 So I found this thread:

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5478545?start=30&tstart=0

 

 Page 3, last post, nasachusetts  user put this link  that´s an intaller/unistaller that solves it.

 Seems that it was solved on Mavericks 10.9.2 (but I didn´t tried it yet).

 For now I´m having now full working the two FW800 of my expresscard on my Lenovo T410, intel hd graphics and Mavericks 10.9.1 with this installer driver.

 Hope it helps.
