Hello all - Anybody know if the Beta Firewire card drivers will continue to work in Yosemite? They work fine in 10.9.5
---Thanks
---Thanks
Further conversation confirms it. Trim Enabler disabled the part of OS X 10.10 that kills the driver. This is only working on my machine... don't upgrade yet.
RedBus believes he has found the problem, and something that works for real with 10.10 should get released fairly soon. Do nothing til you hear from him.
Likewise. So far, it all runs fine, but RedBus advised that it's okay to run this way "for the time being." I am guessing that letting your software run wild and unsigned could cause kernel trouble down the road, or would allow you to install things you shouldn't. There should be a fully operational version real soon.
For a fairly coherent explanation of kext signing, why it needs to be defeated and stay that way to use Trim on 3rd party SSDs, and what thar means for security, check this:

Running in dev mode isn't unstable or dangerous... You just have to be careful that you only install drivers you totally trust.
As a life long, mouse-hating TrackBall-luvin' ball-twiddlin' fool, I greatly empathize with your success.
