I Installed EFI and used this version (<a href="http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=12933&view=findpost&p=54522 5">http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=12933&view=findpost&p=54522 5</a>) of forcedeth (forcedeth.kext not forcedeth-nock.kext) and it works like a charm! :)

Ok new problem... Ever since I installed the new kext, my VPN connection refuses to connect... Its stuck on connecting... until it times out... I enabled "verbose logging" and I get the following error message in ppp.log "PPTP didn't get outgoing_call_reply (got message : 768)" anyone know what this means? I have disabled the firewall so I know it can't be the ports...

Funny thing is it was working with the default kext which came with Rev 1 install (albeit I had to use it with cpus=1).

Can someone send me the original forcedeth-d.kext that comes with Rev. 1 install. I have deleted my backups. I want to try that out (with cpus=1) and see if I can get it working again...

Thanx

PS: The only thing I have changed is installed EFI and the new forcedeth kext.

Chagani here is the orginial forcedeth-d kext from the Zeph 10.5.1 DVD. Enjoy.

Problem solved..
Using nforce lan with EFIv8, does not make my hacintosh (ups.. now as a mac) to freeze again after enabling cpus=2 and downloading files...
Cool...
So no need to have skge.kext which was very difficult to enabled on my leo..

Thanx damnesiac! :D Will try now...

Chagani 02-17-2008 02:24 AM

Yep... It was the newer kext... The one from damnesiac worked!! I have VPN again... Yay! Ok, now back to fixing the freezing issue... Since I have EFI installed now will see if that will fix the issue when I enable both cores...

If this works I will feel silly... I should have tried this at the beginning! :)

Chagani 02-17-2008 02:50 AM

It didn't work without EFI and it doesn't work with EFI... Atleast I don't feel silly... :) Sigh... I guess I will wait for Zeph's latest version after my last effort... boboblack... Can you send me your forcedeth kext? I'd really like to try this...
