Apple has support in its plist for MANY Broadcom modules, most of which Apple NEVER actually used in any of its many products. There is a script which purports to add to the plist the remaining (i.e., he omitted) Broadcom IDs. I've not had to resort to that, as ALL of the Broadcom 4318 modules which I have purchased on ePrey (sic) from a Hong Kong-based seller have been one of Apple's preferred IDs. You can try the script, or you can try manually changing the plist. In any case, the plist MUST include the specific device or devices which you are attempting to attach. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
