Realtek 8139 Ethernet drivers ?

[sanric]

Hi everybody,

on iAtkosV7 the drivers for Realtek 8139 Ethernet controller don't work.
When it comes to see if a network is installed the System Profiler tells me there's no network available.
Is there a driver somewhere else ? How can I install it?


Many thanks to all of you.

I've tried installing the kext you kindly suggested me but it seems to me it's form Snow Leopard and I've installed iAtkosV7 (which is Leopard).
When I install it, it seems the IONetworkingFamily.kext cannot be loaded because it "cannot resolve depenencies".
What can I do?
I've tried repairing permissions but no success.
Thanks a lot to all of you.

My 8139 worked fine without any additional kexts on Leopard.

It worked on Snow too, but Internet was slow without kext I posted above.

Is 8139 PCI or integrated on your computer?

Have you installed motherboard chipset driver?

The ethernet controller is on-board.
I think I didn't install any motherboard kext , mainly because after the installation everyhting went okay.
But, just in case, my chipset is Intel i945G/GZ.
Have I to download something?

Thanks.

Thanks a lot for the effort but nothing to do.
If I try to boot as verbose, it tells me that ionetworkingfamily isn't able to resolve it's dependencies.
Is there a command like modprobe for osx ?
How can I check if a kexts recognizes a device?
