  1. Looks promising, thanks again! I´ll give it a go tomorrow. Edit: No dice, as too many dependencies are lost, it seems. The needed files are here apparently: https://github.com/mbuesch/b43-tools However its way above my head to re-brand my WLAN card without a step by step guide for dummies. Again, the DW 1510 is working as a WLAN card from a third party manufacturer so far. Thanks for caring!
  2. Comrades, I´m afraid the whole process is broken. GNU/Linux repos are known for its frequent changes - hence all the compat patches. I tried with ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso but noway. Maybe someone is willing and able to create a tarball with all the old stuff... Here is where I got stuck: Guess I´ll have to use the BCM4322 as it is for now. I was only 5.20 $ (plus shipping) from China, so what.
  3. Thanks Hervé. So you would suggest to try a Ubuntu GNU/Linux flavor from 2013 or 2014? I´ll look around for one then, the archive you pointed to is fine, but it does not seem to cover the x86 iso´s or am I missing something? Lets hope the dependencies are not dead altogether.
  4. Hi all, I could need a bit help on the above WLAN card. This is not a Lenovo issue, but as I´m on a T420, HD3000, 10.11.3 I thought it might fit here. I´m aware of the guide here: http://www.osxlatitude.com/rebranding-broadcom-802-11abgn-cards-as-airport-extreme/#respond Sadly some dependencies have gone dead it seems, so I´m getting nowhere. Could you please update the how-to or guide me through the procedure in another way? The B43-FWcutter is in the Ubuntu repository btw. It would like the BCM4322 to use all channels 1-13 and to be recognized as Airport Extreme. Thanks!
  5. Thanks for sharing! Made my old WL-138G V2 work with 10.8.1. Chipset is BCM4318, just for the records. Installed with Kext Utility and repaired permissions with Conti´s myFix.
  6. Ah, I forgot. 1920x1200 is the highest resolution available in Chameleon and the display´s native res. Might set it lower, just liked it better that way. Edit: I found by coincidence, that the known package from OSX86.Türk is installing 10.8.2 flawlessly on my old rig. Though I would have liked to know where I went astray, it does not matter much any more. Thanks for your help and care everybody!
  7. After some tries with Champlist: GrahpicsEnabler=no: PC starts until the point where Aqua should load and shuts down. vbios: An error message shows up telling that vbios could not load, then it runs to the point where Aqua should load and shuts down. (I saw this ROM file: http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/index.php?page=1&architecture=NVIDIA&manufacturer=Asus&model=8800+GT&interface=&memSize=256 But I don´t know how to call it correctly from the Boot.plist or whether it might be of any use.) Chameleon 2.1 is from Conti´s myHack 3.2, the build number escapes me right now. What would be the name of such NV framebuffer in 10.8.1? I did not see anything like that in S/L/E. Thanks for caring!
  8. This is my boot.plist for 10.8: NVDAN50Hal is in S/L/E, my PCI root is zero, I checked that. I also tried not to use kernel cache with 10.8.2. Its an old board, and I´m lucky its running 10.8.1 at all. Still I wonder whats going on...
  9. Thanks iMick, I followed your proposals and installed your pkg on my Backup. However I had to boot with -f again to have a usable GUI in 10.8.1. (I wish I knew whats wrong with my kernel_cache.) Upgrading to 10.8.2 showed the well known black screen with white patches again - no matter whether kernel_cache was used or not. Re-installing the pkg on 10.8.2 did not help either. Thank you for your suggestions, anyway!
  10. Thanks for your time! I did some simple edits with my T60 notebooks in 10.6, but the kext from 10.8 retail looks unfamiliar to me and I don´t know how to proceed.

I´m using the one I pointed to above with my harddisk too. (sorry for cluttering the forum with such noob stuff, threads seem to be more sophisticated here, usually) If a helpful soul would volunteer to edit the needed kexts for me, I would be eager to try those with my backup volume. Happy fourth advent!
  11. Hi folks, thanks for this great forum! I am runnig 10.8.1 with this mobo: http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/ConRoe1333-DVIH/ and this graphics: http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/NVIDIA_Series/EN8800GTHTDP256M/ To get going at all I made a thumb drive with myHack and added these kexts as I could not get into the installer otherwise: NVDAN50Hal from DP4: http://www.osx86.net/10-8-mountain-lion/17287-not-work-qe-ci-mountain-lion-gm-nvidia-geforce-8400-gs-512mb-help.html#post114286 IOPCIFamily: http://www.osx86.net/downloads.php?do=file&id=2965 The Hack is running but gives me a garbled screen, if not booted with -f. There is no error message if I boot with -v (not -f), just Aqua not loading but a grey scattered screen. This is how my E/E looks like: A related problem seems to be the 10.8.2 combo update. The screen looks like this and -f does not help: I wonder whether someone could point me to a fix for the graphics? I am still using NVDAN50Hal from DP4 and all other kexts from 10.8.1. With the NVDAN50Hal from 10.8 the system just hangs at "DSMOS has arrived" I am using a iMac8.1 SMBios right now, but that does not seem to matter, MacPro 3,1 does just the same. OpenGL seems to work fine with 10.8.1. You may have noticed I posted this in a German forum too - hope you don´t mind. I didn't get far. Many thanks!
  12. Im aware of the fact that this post is dead in the water a long time... Still for completeness´s sake, non working Preview indicates that QE/CI is not running - which is strange, as a GMA950 is among the easier fixes. Assuming the OP is running 10.6 due to the core solo or duo netbook, this should fix the issue: http://www.osx86.net/downloads.php?do=file&id=2417 (Install with Kext Wizard as usual and repair permissions afterwards.)
