I don't have a problem with the sound, it the lan that's a issue

I have a evga x58 757 sli le, have followed these instructions to the t and no ethernet. I've been reading and reading and am very confused as to what to do.

Right now I think that I need a new dsdt.aml with the lan setup...but have no read clue how to do that. I've got "dsdt patcher" and have run it, which generates the dsdt.dsl file, but now what? the iasl link in the guide no longer works.

I have a feeling that the dsdt.aml that comes with this guide doesn't work on this particular 757 sli le mb, but does on the other version of the board.

And now it seems I'm wrong...got this to work! This hackintosh rules! Everything is working great. gtx 260, mb, ethernet. Haven't tried sound yet, but I bet it works.

used this: http://www.kexts.com/view/117-realtekr1000sl.kext_32-64k_____new_update_!!.html kext and kext helper to install. I don't I had been installing the kext but not rebuilding the cache. Thanks so much for this guide, I would never, ever have been able to do this without this guide. Now, onto final cut!

has anyone tried chameleon rc4?

Supposedly using it I can get rid of platform and restart kexts. Don't really know what I'm doing all that much... :)

i'm not getting cpu temp reads or memory processes listed in istat, is anyone else seeing this?

I was looking for a stat app like that...I don't see CPU temp, only HD temp, but I do see processes if I click on the "mem" in the menubar to get the dropdown.

I have moved to AsereBLN's patched chameleon rc4 which can be found here:

http://www.efixusers.com/showthread.php?t=644

used 1.9 and the binary with the theme in it. All I had to to was copy that the new boot to /boot.

Then removed platforuuid.kext and the restart kext. rebuilt cache. Removed all memory settings from smbios.plist. Restarted. Everthing came back OK, except the platform uuid changed. That because the "Platform UUID under OS X is the System-ID hashed with SHA-1. If you boot in verbose mode, Chameleon prints out which UUID is being used (UUID from SMBIOS Table 1, SMUUID from smbios.plist, or the default builtin, which is static)." (Quote from the above thread.) I don't mind b/c this is a brand new box, but it might eff up itunes and time machine a little bit.

This lets me:
- remove a couple of kexts (platformuuid and restart)
- remove memory information from smbios.plist
- have the cpu reported properly. my i7 920 was reported as unknown before, and now it is a quad core intel zeon, which for some silly reason was bothering me.

so far so good.

Are you using the smbios from this thread or did you make your own?

I was using a slightly different set of kexts until a few days ago and I got the cpu temps in istat so I am going to try to figure out which one was giving me that

I'm using the one from this thread, but I have removed all the memory associated keys.

The only problem I'm having is the computer won't turn off after shutdown. Restart works fine, and the OS shuts down all right, but the power doesn't go off.

I think it has to do with this:

but I haven't edited a dsdt.aml yet, so I don't know enough yet to actually make the edit. More reading required...sigh.
