Bonjour is Apples network protocol used in a wide variety of software and devices. One test is to see if you can access itunes library on the computer with ethernet on another one and vv.
If you just use internet and microsoft file sharing then you probably don't need it.

I dont use bonjour, so I wouldn't know. I dont have any EFI strings either except for my Dual GTX 260's, its just works after deleting the kext and using kext utility to repair permissions.

Are you sure you need that kext for Leopard? Try removing it and see.

I don't think he still has Leopard... Do you?

I removed leopard, sorry folks!

Glad it works for you.

On my GA EX58-UD5 (which has the RTL8111D), I have no ethernet without the RealtekR1000.kext.

x986123, probably you are running it out of kext cache. Can you go through Apple -> About This Mac -> More Info -> Software::Extensions and see if there is RealtekR1000 loaded?

x986123 09-08-2009 12:01 AM

It is not loaded, and not in the location you said. (After removing it, I also rebuilt the Extensions.mkext.

Also, here is a screenshot of my ethernet section.
