Hey bwoolf In your bios you have to set ACPI Table to enable and it should work. Telling you cause that happened to me before and thats all I did (I have a different system but that option must be there somewhere ). Ok hope it helps
why are you using such an old distro? Darwin 9.1? thats really old, highly reccomend you use something newer like Hazard. and also forcedeth is crap you want eno's nforce ethernet ↗ driver.
