Ben Eyre, I would not recommend pc card, because it leads to another problem of pc card drivers.
USB is a good solution. Might be good also mini pci thing.

I'm not promising anything but i downloaded tuxxx's work and i am now taking a look on it.  I hope i can continue this project.




EDIT: It doesn't look too hard.... if i could just squeze this project in my tight program...

POST FOR MORAL SUPPORT! Godspeed!

[psykr]

How is the Kismet reverse-engineered Apple80211.h header used to replace the code that tuxx started?

[dlbogdan]

I'm sooo sleepy.... done close to nothing so far, but i have to catch up with the project. I'm going to bed!

I would really like to see this working. As a base for a 3945abg driver, it would be brilliant.
10.4.4 and 10.4.5 seem to have IO80211Family.kext in them.

So, who's currently working on this driver?

Any progress?

I'm not sure if this is above my level, but is there a way that I could help?
Are the sources on http://sourceforge.n...rojects/iwi2200 up-to-date? I'll have a look anyway

[Urbz]

dunno if it helps...
i just recieved my dell trumobile 1450: i'l let you all know my success.

[update]

well my  F****** ugly dv4000 only F****** accepts smaller mini-pci card. this piece of crap intel thing tht's in it is actually SHORTER than the dell trumobile. It doesn't fit. It hooks up, but it doesn't fit. So now im F****** stuck.

sry for the swearing, im mad out of my mind. F****** HP.

hi,

nice to see people picking up on this...

i am unable to get 10.4.3 or higher to boot on my banias Pentium M due to broken PAE so i cant really help develop on that platform.. i installed 10.4.1 again today and i still am interrested in getting this to work...

dlbogdan: if you need some help understanding what has been done so far you can pm me and maybe we can meetup in chat or something

btw i would reckomend reading freebsds iwi driver over linuxs ipw, you'll see ive done alot of cutting and pasting from that code.

greets,
tuxx

woops - wrong thread. Sorry  

[antonio giorlando]

Get it working!! lol
Would be really nice

[tendrils]

I'm a programmer, I want this to work, can someone point me towards some sort of documentation, I'll do all I can.

[_-=RP=-_]

Not sure. But as much as I know there's the sf-project for the darwin driver: http://sourceforge.n...rojects/iwi2200

And the offical Linux driver from Intel: http://sourceforge.n...rojects/ipw2200

[nsmith40]

Hey everyone, that's awesome to see there are some people working on this project!  Does anyone know if the Intel 2100 card might work with a modified version of this driver, assuming the 2200 driver becomes functional?

[Urbz]

hey tendrills,

the documentation is (i think) non-existent.
We have a tuxx-made driver, everything can be found in the first post.

hope you can get it working...i'm really discouraged...

oh and RP, that page is by tuxx, who created the beta driver in the first post. It's this topic's sourceforge site.

[Year of the Hex]

Does anyone have the compiled driver? I'd like to mess around with it.

[yehweh]

Bump

Bizzzump

iStumbler Release 96 is out... supports Intel... perhaps a collabortation with the creator who better understands the Airport driver
