  1. Hi there, for my first post on this forum, i might come with a glimps of a solution for the D520. First i've got a hand on a D520 a few month ago and tried with the tools you provide on osx Latitude but i never got the ethernet working. The only thing i had was the APIPA address meaning the ethernet didn't get any address from the dhcp server. Typing it in manual didn't work either. Today after trying to install lion, i went back to SL cause i wasn't able to make it work. I booted and installed SL from a usb key made with MODUSB(from : http://blog.nawcom.com/) that helped me install SL on a EEEPC. i installed 10.6.7 update and the "legacy_kernel-Mac_OS_X_10.6.6.tgz" provided by MarcoMC for the installation for the EEEPC(http://www.marcomc.com/index.php/2011/03/how-to-install-or-update-mac-os-x-snow-leopard-10-6-7-on-the-asus-1005ha-netbook/) and above this i installed edp 1.9. The trick is that when i boot from the usb key with modusb on it the ethernet card gets the dhcp address quit fine. BUT if i boot from the HDD with SL alone it still gives me the APIPA address. So there's something it dont understand. Maybe is there some driver loading with the modusb that doesn't with cameleon (V2.0-rc5 r726). It is the first time i get the network ok and as it was luck and i'm not an expert with (for now ) i share this with you hoping you'll be able to find some kind of solution maybe. For info, i changed the cpu for a T7200 and run with 2go of RAM (and i didn't used the limitation of DMA memory to get it working) Hope this will help some of you that still own this notebook ! If anyone need more infos i didn't think about, again i'm kinda new to Mac, go ahead, i'll try to provide it. Bye all.
