well, at last it worked, had to take away the kext of geforce... whatever was the name (i dont have internet access on mac, an too lazy to restart for looking the exact name).

easy install, and a couple of problems fixed looking here and there. (infinite loop at starting up, no boot config, and nvidia geforce kernel panic).

my specs:

amd x2 4600 (windsor core) overclocked 10% (asus ai overclock)
2 GB
2 ata 80 HDD
1 ata 300 GB
1 dvd rw lg ata
2 sata 500GB
nvidia 8500 GT 512
mother board asus m2n4 sli (nforce 4) i think.
integrated audio.
avermedia tv 210(no drivers, and no intention to look for them).

DLINK dwl-g510 rev c2 (chipset rt 61 or thats what google told me).

things that doesnt work:

lan (nforce).
wireless (g510 rev c2).
geforce.

i managed to install reason and my midi keyboard (an cme uf5 by usb) , and it works flawless. (1 sec latency), its even better that asio in windows. marvellous.

but the real problem i have is :

how i can get to work the wireless card.
i dont have idea how mac works, i try to put some kexts, i found in the net, but the plist that one forum said to change en0 to en 1 an 0 to 1 isnt is in the mac harddrive.

so, anyone can help me with the steps i have to do to get it working?

i say it, because im beginning to get boring in restart after restart. (i dont have printer so, pen, write down (some times i save the pages on hdd), reboot, try, failure, reboot, look, etc)
I guess thats whats called recursive .... :-)

well, keep going for version 2.

thxs in advance.

tracktion works and usb midisport. i cant get nvidia gforce 8500gt to work, i tried to the nvidia easyinstall in the wiki, but it installs and then does nothing. when i restart i get the same resolution, and no chances to change it.

1)use efistudio http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=30406, work for me as a charm
2)nvkush.kext (google it)

Ihave geforce8500gt 512 -in efistudio use string for geforce8600gt

This thing really saved me

P.S.
You have to delete nvinject.kext!

pci rt61/rt25xx still doesn't work with osx86!
u should try to buy an usb adapter (20-30 eur) -for me it solved the problem.

if u find a kext for rt61 please post it
