I went to the LNX2MAC site and downloaded the latest installer. It works great with my Asus P8P67LE B3 (rev.3) motherboard. It has an RLT8111e on board. I used the other option for Realtech in Multibeast during my upgrade to Lion. It had issues with losing ethernet connectivity or worse. Apple's version of the blue screen of death, the "Press and hold the power button to shut down and restart your computer" http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3742
Apple says it's related to networking. That's what made me decide to try the latest LNX2MAC rtl81xx driver. It works great. I loaded it 2 days ago and ran it overnight, no problem.

I'm using Parallels and Windows 7 in a virtual machine and everything is stable. I'm new to Mac and convinced there's no going back to the dark side. Windows is a slave on this machine.

Thanks to all involved.

With Lnx2Mac's rtl81xx driver I get network drops when transferring large amounts of data (Like a time machine backup). Or my system just hangs..
With the realtek driver I haven't got this problem, except.... with this driver I get the Apple Black screen of death (hold power key for reboot screen)

I have this problems since upgrading to Lion (10.7.1 for now). On Snow Leopard everything was great with lnx2mac's driver.

Hardware : i3-540, ga-h55n-usb3.

Lnx2Mac Its hard to know what your drivers actually work on. On your site you list the added support but never everything it works for.
I have a Vostro 200 with a RTL8110SC lan that only works if I unplug the lan for 10 seconds after boot then plug it back in. Do you know of a fix for this?

1) I get a Kernel panic when transferring large amount of data at high speed, such as streaming a 1080p video from the Hackintosh.

2) If I ever unplug the Ethernet cable, I will never get a new IP from my Airport router without rebooting.

3) How do I uninstall this package completely? I think I'll go with the Realtek kext instead.
