Hello again, OpenDarwin is now running on the laptop, however it did not detect the "wired" network interface. It's a Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit chip (BCM5705). I looked at the HCL and it doesn't list it either way, working or non-working. After some poking around, I did notice that there's a driver for BCM5701 (AppleBCM5701Ethernet.kext), but apparently the binary is for PPC only. However the AppleGMACEthernet binary appears to support both PPC and x86. Is this some kind of a universal network driver, like the good old NE driver in Linux? Anything I can do to force recognition of my network card? TIA. - Slav
