a follow-up to my prev message....
i did a
kextload -t /S/L/E/WirelessDriver.kext/
and got an interesting response!
-------
[wjllope:~] wjllope% sudo kextload -t
/System/Library/Extensions/WirelessDriver.kext/
kernel extension /System/Library/Extensions/WirelessDriver.kext/ has problem=
s:
Validation failures
{
"Kext has a kernel dependency prior to version 6.0 and
CFBundleVersion does not match executable's MODULE_VERSION" =3D true
}
Missing dependencies
{
"com.apple.iokit.IOPCCardFamily" =3D
"No valid version of this dependency can be found"
}
-------
but.....
-------
[wjllope:~] wjllope% locate IOPCCardFamily
/System/Library/Extensions/IOPCCardFamily.kext
/System/Library/Extensions/IOPCCardFamily.kext/Contents
