Intel Wireless 2100, 2200bg, 2915bg, 3945abg, 4965agn, IWIDarwin drivers for mac os x 10.4 and 10.5 *under development* Options

[Hillin]

My dev id is also 4222.

[YeoYo]

Ok Ive been watching for awhile, waiting for 4965 to get into play. Missed a few days of checking. Now your onto it. Can someone if possible PM me and explain to me how to test this? I will help out the whole way through.

[jalavoui]

Jalavoui,
i was going over iwi3945.cpp, it and found this:
{
const char * model = "3945 ABG";
/*if ((fPCIDevice->configRead16(kIOPCIConfigDeviceID) == 0x4223) ||
(fPCIDevice->configRead16(kIOPCIConfigDeviceID) == 0x4224))
{
model = "2915 ABG";
};*/

I know its a multiline comment, but shouldn't 0x4222 be included as well?
If not, sorry to bother with my comments...

this is just to id the card to mac os x.
the driver detects the card with the ids of info.plist file

[Doctadre]

Mine is 4222 as well

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4222&SUBSYS_135B103C&REV_02
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4222&SUBSYS_135B103C
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4222&CC_028000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4222&CC_0280

To be clear, 4223 and 4224 is the ID for 2195 cards, according to the commented code.

If you guys don't know how to code, don't waste your time looking at it.

[Ruud]

as you can see, the code is between /* and */ this means it is commented out en therefor doenst work

[hypnotic]

Thank you Miguel Madrid.
I will keep that good instruction in case someone asks here again.

iwi3945 rel 828
Still stuck on restart (fail to init correctly 20% then got wrong logs), The 80% inits correctly, but get frozen, the more far line i have seen is talking about GEOX...

Manual load log and kext

EDIT: I have been thinking why my card is different from others for a while... i have read about on linux the card fail to wake up cause its on deep sleep sometimes, and maybe you have add a code to make it awake, could be intel has solve that problem on my revision and that code make it freeze?. Just a thinking.

[jalavoui]

pere,
if i can figure out waht's wrong with your card i'll have the driver ready

i hope the cards like this:
iwi3945 rel 830
iwi4965 rel 831

check if you get first log lines in system.log

Kazzi.... we know is commented, but as far as we know, there are two ID for the 3945 card...

4222 and 4227.... and that could be one of the reasons the card is not initializated correctly....

Sorry for not knowing more about coding... we are trying to make our best to help...

By the way....

I don't get any error loading the kext if I shutdown and power on the laptop instead of just reboot it... (as pere is doing from the beging).

My logs from 4965- rev 827. Can't post more up to date ones because I can't build the Kext, Xcode gives me errors. I did this with my network cable unplugged, but with a reboot. During one of the reboots I got a Kernel Panic after logging in, hasn't happened again though.
