i'm using clover. i don't know how, but now i can login to AppStore even i don't have ethernet as a built in. en0 is set to airport

my ethernet is detected on th PCI section:

Qualcomm Atheros AR8151 v2.0 Gigabit Ethernet:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/to...lcomm-atheros-ar816x-ar817x-and-killer-e220x/

and now, here's another problem
after installing tons of app now a i cannot shut down my system, it gives reboot
and here's what i got from console:

If the problem is caused by something you installed, uninstall it or start over...
 
I don't think thats the right solution for my 8151 ethernet. Now the info says no driver installed. When i use atherosL1cEthernet, the info says driver installed. But i cannot set it to built in

Maybe not. You should be able to set it to built-in (with the other working driver), but you may have to reset your network interfaces. Make sure you have EthernetBuiltIn=Yes.

To do that, go into SysPrefs->Network and remove all interfaces, Apply, then remove /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist. Reboot, then add all your network interfaces back, starting with Ethernet.

Otherwise, there is always NullEthernet: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Null-Ethernet

Thanks! It works now. I thought EthetnetBuiltIn=Yes only works with chameleon

EthernetBuiltIn is for Chameleon and Chimera.

Clover does it automatically. If you're using Clover, please update your profile.

Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)

System: manufacturer/model + bootloader(Clover/Chameleon/Chimera)
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
System: HP ProBook 4540s (Clover)
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.

Okay, my profile is updated.
Yes, i'm using clover, but my ethernet not detected as built in without EthernetBuiltIn=Yes. Any suggestion?

"EthernetBuiltIn" is not a flag recognized by Clover. It sounds to me like you're actually using Chameleon or Chimera.

nevermind, now i suddenly can make it built in without EthernetBuiltIn :D

now i want to make brightness slider work, what i've done is:
- installed your acpibacklight.kext, now the brightness slider shows up but not working
- editing DSDT: added OperationRegion, added PNLF, added _DSM method on GFX0, added some code on _wak, gave name to LCD on DD02 inside GFX0

and what i got is:
- Fn+up/down for brightness (already works OOB before, since the first time booting to OSX with your VoodooPS2Controller)
- the brightness level is restored to the last position of the slider after reboot

the problem is:
- Fn+up/down shows OSD and slides the brightness slider to the right, but not to left (the brightness actually decrease, though)
- Fn+down cannot reach "zero" point
- brightness slider not working at all
- how to enable auto dim after some period of inactivity?
- how to enable auto dim on battery?

please help, thanks :)

HD3000/HD4000 Brightness Fix:
DSDT Patches from here: https://github.com/RehabMan/Laptop-DSDT-Patch

Apply:
"Rename GFX0 to IGPU"
"Brightness Fix (HD3000/HD4000)"
- rename patch must be done first and to all DSDT/SSDT that contain references to GFX0 that you're including in your final SSDT set
- Brightness patch must be done to the DSDT or SSDT that contains the definition for Device GFX0 (search for 'Device (GFX0)'
- Place DSDT and SSDT (if necessary) into a place where the bootloader will load them. For Clover, EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched (DSDT.aml, SSDT-x.aml where 'x' is a number). For Chameleon, /Extra/ssdt.aml, /Exra/ssdt-1.aml, /Extra/ssdt-2.aml, etc.

Install: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-ACPI-Backlight

i've revert my DSDT back. renamed GFX0 to IGPU, applied brightness fix HD3000/4000, and the slider still not working.
anyway, my graphic card is the 1st gen intel HD, not HD3000/4000
