Installing the 3COM 3C940 Gigabit Ethernet under OSX
Finally! Our friend managed to activate the 3COM 3C940 Gigabit Ethernet under OSX thanks to a port of the linux skge driver. The port was done by m.musashi and you can get it here . Just extract the archive and use the instructions to copy the kext to the Extensions folder. Add your device/vendor id under the IOPCIPrimaryMatch tag (for him it was 0x170010B7). If that's not your vendor/device id then you need to look them up. Easiest way is to use the Linux utility lspci and lspci -n should show you the device and vendor id. Be careful as it shows you first the vendor then the device id and you need to input first the device and then vendor id. Good luck!
