Hi all,
I have two NKE's... one for 10.3 and one for 10.4, and both of them
load with no complaints when doing a "sudo kextload -t" on their
respective systems.
After copying them into "/System/Library/Extensions", the driver
doesn't get picked up and loaded at boot time.
/var/log/system.log shows no complaints at all (it'd be useful if
it did... should that be a feature request for Radar?)
The system does not automatically load network kernel extensions. If
there is a driver that matches hardware according to IOKits matching
rules, IOKit will load it automatically. Since this is a network
kernel extension and not an IOKit driver, it must be loaded manually.
If you need to load at startup, you can use a startup script. If you
need to be loaded only while some application is running, the
application can use kextload to load the kext.
