Post-Install Mavericks Dell 15R 7510

FYI: Dell does not make trackpads.

Sorry for the confusion . I thought that trackpad = touchpad...

Either you had Synaptics or you have ALPS and found the bpedman branch of my driver with ALPS support.

I think I found the ALPS. There was a RehabmanMerge folder in it and I installed the kext from there.

What WiFi do you have? Use DPCIManager->PCI List to find out. Unless you have supported hardware, you'll need to replace it.

This is the info shown in PCI List related to WiFi:
8086, 0887, 8086, 4462, Intel Corporation, Centrino Wireless-N 2230

Thanks.

You are correct about trackpad vs. touchpad. They are different terms for the same thing. But Dell does not make them, no matter what you call them.

I think I found the ALPS. There was a RehabmanMerge folder in it and I installed the kext from there.

That's what I figured (Dell uses ALPS trackpads usually...)

It is not supported. You'll need to replace it. See: http://www.tonymacx86.com/network/104850-guide-airport-pcie-half-mini-v2.html

I solved the WiFi problem by buying a wireless adaptor EDIMAX EW-7811UN. This works with Mac OS. Thanks.
