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

[jalavoui]

iwi2200
to start building for 10.5 i'll need someone with

10.5.x version
xcode
change iwi2200.h debug level to full debug - to do this change code to
#define IWI_DEBUG_FULL_MODE
change in Info.plist p_disable from 0 to 1
build the driver
post the logs - see iwidarwin on howto make "good" logs
if the driver gives a kp post the picture

Tried to install the 2200 Stable and lastest from SVN but won't get OS X to boot again. It detects the wireless adapter and then crashes.

That doesn't help anything.


Either provide logs or don't post? :S

In an effort to do my very small part, here are the requested log files. I get kernel panic every time I install the 3945 driver from SVN. Not much to post a screen shot of, just the standard message "you must restart your computer..." in 4 languages.

 ioreg.txt ( 18.35K ) Number of downloads: 144

How can i save my boot to a log? I can post the panic info via taking a picture if the panic info is any help

Not at all.

It's just useless to post "Hi this doesnt work, that's all" without providing any material to show why it didn't work.
The person below your post is a perfect example, posting logs and detailed information.

Just saying "2200 from SVN doesnt boot OSX" is useless, the developers can't do anything with that.

How do I create log's to help development of the drivers?

open Terminal
% sudo -s
% cd ~/Desktop
% dmesg > dmesg.txt
% cat /var/log/system.log > system.txt
% ioreg -w 0 > ioreg.txt

Now you have 3 log files; dmesg.txt, system.txt and ioreg.txt you can find them on the desktop

Haha im retarded for not seeing that, Thank you.

He probably doesn't have the technical knowledge to provide a log, pretty self explanitory
He did say that he got a kernal panic, though; I see that as significant effort from a n00b

;D

[antaholics]

or, maybe he's too lazy =P

*patiently waits for 4965 driver for Leopard*

*impatiently waits for USB wireless dongle with Zydas chipset to arrive*

[jalavoui]

my last post is meant for iwi2200 only...
the "good" way to make logs can be found at http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=71779
this link exists in iwidarwin site

other drivers will have to wait for further development.

iwi2100 - i don't know if anyone uses this card anymore
iwi2915/2200 - i'll try to help porting it to mac os x 10.5
iwi3945/4965 - this project can be done using symuc's code. with the right code structure it's possible to make a project with code for both drivers instead of having 2 separated projects (intel as done this)

i'd like to thank people who have made donations to iwidarwin
maybe i manage to get a new laptop and start writting 10.5 code

[Injerto]

dear jalavoui: which is the best way to get the 3945abg working with leopard?

I'm really interested in supporting the project but I still get kernel panic with the kext..

I use it, or would if it worked, but am not really savy enough to help with testing.

[Lytener]

i'm interested in helping with the debug info for iwi2915 for Leopard 10.5. Not sure what I really need to do on the scripting mentioned. Let me knwo thanks.

[James M]

Hey all.

I also need a Leo iwi2200 driver! The one in Tiger worked great but I have just upgraded to Leo and no Internet! *sob*. How long do you guys think to wait?

James,

[streilu]

I've a panic too with the 3945abg driver on leopard, when i'm at home i'll post some logs...

[arob92]

jala.....i would really like airport support on i2200.....i think that would be amazing!! So i can finally get rid of my wifi usb dongle .....i would help you on testing it but im kind of a noob....if u think u can give me simple instructions on what to do, i will help you

iwi2200 leo version

this was made on a imac g3...
i can only post source code at this time - i need a pc to work
i've changed a few thing for making the driver work on mac os x 10.5
can someone with leo and xcode post a build of this version in this thread?
this version will build in xcode against current version of mac os x - this means that if you have 10.5.1 and build it might fail to work for 10.5.0. post which version of mac os you used for making the build
i need logs to make this driver work
