re:4965
little background:

I'm using tortoiseSVN to sync to a folder on my windows partition. I then reboot into OSX and copy the files to a folder on my desktop.


I'm able to build the kext however when I go to load it I'm getting unresolved symbols and it wont load. I tried using kextload and also via reboot. Anyone else experiencing this on the latest build?

Sorry about not having any logs, but I'm still trying to work out how to bounce back and forth and transfer data. Not having ANY network in OSX makes it a little difficult to move log files around.

[mprewitt]

Ok,
downloaded 3945 rev 996, compiled and built with all the warnings, added a sudo to the shell scripts so it wouldn't error out..
And this is the relevant part of my log.. It seems to be thinking the machine is in 'deep sleep' mode so doesn't wake up.

I've installed the iwi2200.kext with all the instructions. Everything works until I get to "getting ip address", and nothing more.

I've searched a lot and I found some solutions like going to System Preferences, but I'm not really understanding how do we exactly do.

Thanks guys.

Which iwi2200 are you using, the 10.4 (Tiger) or 10.5 (Leo) version?

[myself108]

sorry about not being around for testing... now working full time in an ag chemical and seed retailer, but will test after work


here is my log for the 4965 r996

log seems short... don't know why... left to run for over an hour no kp:)

revert the code back to revision 803..

r803, iwi2200-osx10.5, as far as I know
install scripts, nsGUI.app, networkSelector, and the kext are all linked in the pkg [basically, it should work]
You just have to select the revision on the SVN. (It's a bit hard to do in XCode, though, so I still use svnX)

bah, exams tomorrow :/

Here's the log 4965 rev 996 right after I installed the kext.

The log kept rolling and would not stop increasing in size. I haven't tried networkSelector though because I don't know how that works. Whenver I tried an option it just returned me with another select option screen, and if I type in something weird the program loops forever and there are some weird things appear in the log (saying that trying to turn the network card off if i had selected 1, and scan -disabled! if i selected 2 and they kept repeating). If someone can give me a hint on how to use networkSelector to initiate a scan that would be great.

Sorry about my noobness ^^;;

How do I get in hands off theese ?


try first with kextload

iwi3945 rel 997
iwi4965 rel 998

I also wants to test...

[Sophitia]

rev 998 4965
no KP. I got the log when it's still small. Restarted still no KP.
haven't tried networkSelector yet as I don't know how to.
@sheringham: check http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=71779 . It took me a while to struggle with it though hopefully you won't be as bad ^^;;

No auth for me. But the driver is definitely more stable. After seeing such errors in the past was a near immediate KP

post edit: are those functions already there, or you need to implement those functions still?

auth work
if this don't work try to hack search in xcode for "authenticate stabssid="
to make the driver auth/assoc
it's easier to hack if you have the card
can't help more until someone fix this
thanks for helping
