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

[Megnus]

Do you first install the drivers, and then get the logs? Or just post log of your spesific system?

Can I give help someway? I have Dell XPS M1710

This is absolutely great. Everyday i checked this thread to see an update on the progress for the 345. Can't wait to see my wirelesscard working on OS X. Keep going the good work.

[EgoDeath]

Ok, i couldn't wait. (3945)

here are my Logs.
i had a random Kernel panic on my 3rd reboot, so i just rebooted again and all was fine.
i dont see this card showing up anywhere though (does it not load for me?)
Meh, i could care less, what with elite coderz on the case
Cheers

Don't worry. This is just trying to start properly the card and testing if you receive some beacons. It's not going to be recognized by any other sw.

But it's a huge step. ;D

sorry to ask this question i know you guys work hard and that's amazing . but what do you guys mean when you say the test worked or it was good . does it mean that your getting connection? or it just means that the driver is being installed good ?

also i use linux ubuntu gustygibbon . and on their forume there is a standard easy install file that makes the 3945 work . is it possible to look at how the file is built? i think it's different i'm not sure about these things . just trying. thank you for your hard work guys and hopefully soon it runs right.

Hi Jalavoui, I have changed my Intel 3945 a/b/g wireless card with a Dell 1500 draft N (NJ449, rev A01).
So, I have a spare wireless card and I wish to donate it to the group working for driver development.
Please mail to me and I will send it to the one interested.
Wish you success.

It just means that it's "installing" or initializing properly. It does get some beacons, but a lot of code to negotiate a connection is left.

Hello all,

I tired making logs as per: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=71779

But when I did -s at bootloader and got to the screen, I was unable to do the next command "sh /etc/rc"

And when I decided to try the command printer for kicks, it said I didnt have permission to write.

I checked my os x partition and I couldn't find folders /etc/ in the root either...

Am i missing something?

Thanks!

I think you're doing what I was at first. If you're testing using the latest from tnw (the folder "START TEST") then you don't test the same way as the previous one (or I don't think you do). Run the command in the folder and answer yes through all questions in the terminal. Once it is done you can simply run the get logs command without running in single user mode.

Correct me if I'm wrong guys?

Thanks for your reply!

But sorry, I am not able to follow what your instructions are. What is the folder "start test"? Where should I run the command or when? When the OS is booted up and running or in single user mode? I am a little lost. Could you rephrase/clarify?

Thank you!

He means that you need to download the file of TNW on page 16. To download the file click on this link: Download here
In there is a .command file wich you can run when your leopard machine is turned on normally, that loads the driver.
Then you can do "sudo dmesg" to get te log. Copy the lines out of the terminal in a text document and post them.

jalavoui:

Do you have access to a 4965 card? If not, I have an Intel 4965AGN Wireless card here that i'm not using (HP Part# 441086-001), and would gladly donate it to the project if it could be of use.

[zeclubbeur]

I post my dmesg log. The driver loads but, it mac adress is at ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff.

There are many people offering their cards for the project. I have to thank all the people that's cooperating with this, it's a solution we all need and want.


Greetz!!

[jalavoui]

i'd like to thanks people offering iwi cards to the project
i only have a imac g3 to work - can't use this cards on it
i'm planning to get a laptop with a pci-express port but this will take some time and depends on the donations get so far.

i'll keep this project alive no matter what - so don't worry i'm here to stay

maybe TNW, Symuc can use those cards?

[TNW]

Hello guys,

First Time i thank you for your work and all the time you give for OSX86.

I have an Intel WIFI 4965 in my Lapto and i am giving up to search for an Driver to get this card working.
Now i want to buy an external Wireless adapter. Can i use every Adapter wich is compatible for MAC OS X,
or do i need a special Adapter for iATKOS v1.0i ?

Thank you

Thank you

You can use any adapter that's compatible with mac os x, the most common are zydas based ones.

By the way, you'll have to wait some time to get a fully working driver for your wireless card.

See ya!
