    Great thanks.

    I created a new Info.plist with the content you gave me.

    I just wanted to move that now to the IOSerialFamily.kext file but was told that this cannot be modified.

    What now - THANKS again, you are the first one knowing what I am looking for for the last 10hours!!

    I managed to copy that file now.



    After a restart I get the message that the file was not installed correctly and can´t be used.



    What did I do wrong?

    You maybe need to set the permissions on it correctly. It should be:



    Owner: System - Read and Write

    Group: wheel - Read Only

    Others: Read Only



    If it still doesn't work, you can get Pacifist and try extracting that extension from the installer disc.
