that worked nicely. thanks muchno! the kextstat command seems to list the last drivers you loaded at the bottom of the list, which helps. i only know enough unix to be thoroughly dangerous, but if i could have remembered how to do a (?reverse?) grep or logical /not/ on 'apple.com' which suppressed those lines, i would have had less than a half dozen entries to deal with. [g]

i'm not sure i got everything cleaned out, but at least the mac/chirp dropdown box only lists the working driver.

I think the way to remove kexts is as follows:

1. In terminal navigate to /System/Library/Extensions/
2. Issue: sudo kextunload nameofkext.kext
3. Issue: sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/nameofkext.kext

You'll be asked for an admin password when you use sudo.

If you want you can reboot - it shouldn't be necessary.

hi folks:

[snip] so i much appreciate all the help and tips and info you guys gave me and i have no idea why i couldn't get anything to work until now. now i have some more hours of research ahead of me to figure out how to uninstall the other pl2303 drivers that are loaded and not working. it can't be good to have 3 drivers loaded into kext all for the same thing.
