No worries, great to hear from the man behind the write up, you are a life saver!

Say, I am currently restoring from a time machine backup. I can't for some reason get Atheros E2200 to show as Ethernet under Network. In fact, I can't add Ethernet at all after several attempts to kext the ethernet port with V2.2. Then again, I am a noob. I just need this to access the Apple Store.

Also, were you able to shut down your machine? Mine just reboots.... boo!

Everything else works like a charm, safe for the occasional boot hickup, where I just restart the laptop and after one or two attempts it will boot fine. I can live with that really :)

Reset your network card detection by deleting NetworkInterfaces.plist and preferences.plist from /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration

it will redetect your network cards and should/might/maybe work.

Also, the shutdown issue has plagued my machines frequently. I think it is fixable but i haven't gotten around to researching fixes because it has been low priority.

I just realized this is pretty off-topic, start a new thread if you have anything else you want to mention I'll try to respond there.
 
Roger that, thanks a mil! Will open a thread called "Alienware R3 13 Ethernet Issues" in case I can't solve it. Thanks for your time am patience :)
 
Would it be ok to get in touch with you through PM? I can't PM you yet as I am a noob on this forum :)

Has anyone here gotten the GeForce 1060 working? I've got 530 graphics just fine, and the nVidia web drivers are loading, but it's showing me that no devices are detected in the Nvidia Preferences. Any clues? :)

Discrete card in dual-GPU switched/routed configuration (such as Nvidia Optimus) not supported.
