What should i do with IOPCIFamily-113.patch ???

Its the diff to fix certain issues.

Download source code from Apple. Install Xcode, Apply the IOPCIFamily-113.patch.

 

I you dont know the included file, you're better off downloading the BIN patched from page 1

Hi Guys

 

I have an Aspire 5739g with an Atheros Ar8131, I'm trying to make it work.

but I have this error:

 

localhost kernel[0]: [AttansicL1eEthernet] Error: Couldn't map io regs

localhost kernel[0]: [AttansicL1eEthernet] Error: Couldn't probe adapter

 

I hace tried the patch but Snow doesn't boot

 

What could I do?

 

Thanks

@quitenew, @Dragon Master, @rals2007

Page 1 links back to this one. The sourcecode patch is there only for reference. You don't need it. But some guru, some day, may want to look at the sourcecode instead of spending countless hours wondering what the hell I (or more exactly Chun-nan) fixed.

@Dragon Master

There's no need to add your device id (which one, btw?) anywhere (where, btw?).

@buoo

There is a strong possibily that this hack does not work for you; you should know that, as a hackint0sher. Then again, it is very likely that there's a conflict somewhere; especially if you hacked the bejesus out of your installation. Either way, you should be more verbose if you want to be helped.

In 10.6.x I keep on getting

IOPCCard info: Mac OS X PCMCIA Card Services 3.3.0
IOPCCard info: options: [pci] [cardbus] [pnp]
IOPCCard info: Intel ISA/PCI/CardBus PCIC probe:
IOPCCard notice: Bad bridge mapping at 0xd2100000!
IOPCCard info: no bridges found.
IOPCCardBridge::start failed

even with dborca's PCIFamily, and any other PCIFamily.kext and PCCardFamily kext (Chun-Nan etc.). Tried all possible combos to now avail.

 

In Leo I was only able to get PCMCIA by replacing AppleACPIPlatform.kext, AppleAPIC.kext and IOACPIFamily.kext with the ones from 10.5.5 (or modded ones, I am not sure). Kernel Panic if I apply those in Snow. For Snow there are no modded versions of these kexts from what I know. The ones from kexts.com which claim compatibility with Snow also --> kp -- :(

 

Also tried all sorts of Chameleon bootloaders hoping one would fix the PCI bridge mapping.

 

If anybody has ideas or even better, solutions, please post.

 

Thanks,

Bugs

Is there something special to do besides copying the .kext in S/L/E and repairing the permissions ?

I installed it that way and it gave me a kernel panic, even in safe boot mode !

 

I'm using iatkos s3v2 on an Acer Aspire 7730ZG.

 

Thanks !

Through the black art of reverse engineering, I present you Chun-Nan's IOPCIFamily.kext v113.

Quick question. How do I know if this is really working on my Snow Leopard 64? I'm trying to narrow down my ethernet problem to my PCI driver or ethernet card (BCM57780 14e4:1692) driver.

 

kextstat shows that IOPCIFamily.kext is running. I dont think I see any errors in my console. Are there any I should specifically look for?

I've tried this kext on a tx1000 HP laptop, (to enable ExpressCard PCIe video card), but it just "reboots" before going into the GUI

 

It does detect the external video card, but reboots,... and it does the same thing (reboots) without the card (using internal only)

 

How to debug this?

 

Linux and Win7 detects it fine.

 

Running 10.6.5

ive had stop at [PCI configuration begin] turns out the Device (PCI) had _ADR had to change to _UID.
Thanks for sharing! Is that on your GA-G31M-ES2L rev:1.x, or another computer's DSDT?
