Works great on Yosemite!?

?

If you got intermittent problems connecting to network with Lnx2Mac's driver, replace it with this one.

Technical question unrelated to your driver but related to networking, I am trying to get a Z10PE-D8 WS board to upgrade from SL to ML, did you ever encounter this error whilst coding these drivers, and can you point me to where the problem might be ?

 

AppleKCS::waitForIBF timed out! (repeats a few times)

AppleKCS::IPMISendCommand retries on command 0x1 failed (this repeats to a count of 0x5)

 

Once the command count reaches 0x6 the system reboots

 

Any ideas ?
