2. Every time I boot and set Power to ON the nsGUI hangs. I can't kill the process at all. If I log out and log back in again and set Power ON then it often works.

yep same here.

[psedog]

Unhandled transform (1) for ioctl group = 78 (N), number = 3, length = 100
Illegal instruction
logout

I get this same exact error.

I've been watching this thread for about a month. I realize that the 3945 is not going to be up and running for a while. I have tried a few of the .dmg's with no success, so I ebay'd a 2915 for less than $20

I got the same screen like Roal2488...

Jalavoui:
I got a KP(grey screen of death) when i mounted the kext with the kexhelper application, but i coulndt get any logs. of course i get the same KP whle trying to boot normally. will try with -v to see what happens.
then i booted with -s and loaded the driver manually with the kextload command and got the screen i posted. How do i make it crash booting with -s? the thing is that the screen freezes there and still after 15min it was still like that.

I've posted some markers and recompiled it. It crashes right here:

void ieee80211_sta_work(struct work_struct *work)
{
IM_HERE_NOW();
struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata = (struct ieee80211_sub_if_data*)work->data;//check this
// container_of(work, struct ieee80211_sub_if_data, u.sta.work);
struct net_device *dev = sdata->dev;
---->>>>> HERE struct ieee80211_local *local = (struct ieee80211_local*)wdev_priv(dev->ieee80211_ptr);
struct ieee80211_if_sta *ifsta;
struct sk_buff *skb;

Hope this helps

[revolt_team]

i added the IOLog("1\n");
to the static int ieee80211_open(struct net_device *dev) function and re-compile it whit xcode under leo 10.5.1

then i bot whit -s
the i load the kext whit kextload


but ...
but ...

but the driver frezees and i dont give me the kernel panic
there some pics ...



of a couple of try's

very nice kp catch
i'll try to fix it

iwi3945 rel 670
if you have xcode maybe you can fix this - try some IOLog() if get a kp

Well, I used printf(), since IOLog doesn't produce any messages to console

[jalavoui]

iwi3945 rel 671

fixed code for thread alloc
this version should be more stable

Is there any update on the 4965AGN driver for Leopard?

If there is anything I can do to help, just let me know! Once i get the driver for my WiFi card, i can finally switch to using OSX as my primary OS!

[imwithalwood]

I'm sorry I cannot find the new release! I wanna help! Also if the kext makes a Kp what do I do? Boot with -x?

[Roal2488]

I'm getting the same screen as before i think

jalavoui, using iwi3945 rel 671 I get KP immediately (Kalyway 10.5.2).

I added the following markers in the code:

CODE

static int ieee80211_open(struct net_device *dev)
{
    printf("CAH: 1\n");
    IM_HERE_NOW();    
    printf("CAH: 2\n");
    
    struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata, *nsdata;
    printf("CAH: 3\n");
    struct ieee80211_local *local = (ieee80211_local*)wdev_priv(dev->ieee80211_ptr);
    printf("CAH: 4\n");
    struct ieee80211_if_init_conf conf;
    printf("CAH: 5\n");
    int res;
    printf("CAH: 6\n");

    sdata = (struct ieee80211_sub_if_data*)IEEE80211_DEV_TO_SUB_IF(dev);
    printf("CAH: 7\n");
    //read_lock(&local->sub_if_lock);
    list_for_each_entry(nsdata, &local->sub_if_list, list) {
        printf("CAH: 7a\n");
        struct net_device *ndev = nsdata->dev;

        printf("CAH: 7b\n");
        if (ndev != dev && ndev != local->mdev /*&& netif_running(ndev)*/ &&
            compare_ether_addr(dev->dev_addr, ndev->dev_addr) == 0 &&
            !identical_mac_addr_allowed(sdata->type, nsdata->type)) {
            //read_unlock(&local->sub_if_lock);
            printf("CAH: 7c\n");
            return -1;//-ENOTUNIQ;
        }
        printf("CAH: 7d\n");
    }
    //read_unlock(&local->sub_if_lock);

    printf("CAH: 8\n");

The last marker I see on the console (the line before the KP) is 'CAH: 7' so I think the line 'list_for_each_entry(nsdata, &local->sub_if_list, list)' is giving me the KP.

P.S I don't have a digital camera here to take a photo of the KP screen.

I'm sorry I cannot find the new release! I wanna help! Also if the kext makes a Kp what do I do? Boot with -x?
