really good project, I'm with you man !!!!

 

would be really good if wifi work (since my ethernet card doesn't work :s)

[banane]

jalavoui is my gleam of hope

[rathalos]

banane, what system u using and what are the kext u used??? i get a kernel panic when i did the same thing as u, which was scan and attempt to associate.... a big headache....

[kinwah.lai]

why we are not putting the iwi2200.kext in the IO80211Family.kext like broadcom and artheros?

[banane]

its jas 10.4.7 patched to 10.4.8 sse2

default kernel

[rathalos]

default kernel as in the 8.4.1 kernel? or is it semthex's 8.8.1 kernel?

[l3opard]

Thanks so much guys for working on this...I have two dell 6000 and both of them have 2200BG...wireless PRO..so i really can't wait to get a working version of the driver...then my laptop will be actually portable

[eLMafUDd]

Thank you guys for working on this. I have a 3945 and am available for testing if any of you guys need me.

[demenion]

I check this thread like 8 times daily

 

Have a 3945 as well..

 

thanks for all the work!

[banane]

jalavoui, where are tho?

[rathalos]

i think jalavoui posts once every like 2 days or so.... lets give him some time to work things out....

 

patience people.... patience.....

[jacksont123]

I wish he made daily status updates

[ufulu]

Although I fixed my wireless Problem with a Belkin USB Wifi I would really like to see my onboard intel 2200 fire up!

 

 

Take the time you need! Just take the time

[mifki]

You guys know the rules, dont spam threads up with junk like "where is he, omg why isnt he here, i can test if u want." Leave the Developers alone. So dont post unless u have debugging information or something useful to say.

[jalavoui]

I'm done with the firmware work. I'm currently using ipw-fw-3.0! it's much more stable than old 2.3v. i've made a small utility wich can be used to split the firmware file in 3 parts. the linux upload routine works just fine now.

 

this could be very usefull for other drivers (like 3945). i'll submit the code soon

 

i'll upload the iwi2200.kext v4 with the new firmware and source code.

 

 

 

 

[xkazu]

 

you seem to be using the 10.4.8 IO80211Family.kext / Apple80211.framework. they don't work with iwi2200.kext. start from the mac os x intel upgrade 10.4.5 and go to 10.4.7 only.

 

at this point the driver is stucked at the ipw_scan() routine. the linux source goes to deep and i'm having trouble in finding a way to retrieve the scan results and do the ipw_associate().

 

if you have new ideas please help. i'll submit the source code soon

 

 

 

[rathalos]

 

you have the Intel Pro Wireless 2200BG just like me. the iwi2200.kext should work without changing any of the parameters. do you do the IO80211Family.kext / Apple80211.framework upgrade from 10.4.5 to 10.4.8?

the bug could also be because of the ASUS WL-167G USB Wireless Adaptor?

 

 

 

[kinwah.lai]

 

can you post a script to do the loading of iwi2200.kext?

it should also remove the Extensions.kextcache and Extensions.mkext cause of parameters changing

 

 

[banane]

 

thanks for your log. the IWI_HDR_TYPE_FRAME isn't working yet (hard to port from linux)

do you have way to check if any of the networks:

 

Jan 7 11:11:43 banane kernel[0]: Network '<hidden> (b4:8f:77:02:00:00)' excluded because of storming (0ms since last assoc attempt).

Jan 7 11:11:43 banane kernel[0]: Network '<hidden> (d0:8a:77:02:e0:8a)' excluded due to capability mismatch.

 

exists or are valid networks?

i'm using the 10.4.8 kernel semthex. can you try the iwi2200.kext in 10.4.8?

[banane]

yes, these are valid, existing wifi nets. one of them is an airport extrem base station actually (d0:8a:77:02:e0:8a)

the logs from above have been created on 10.4.8.

i can do a script too

thanks for your support, looking forward to hearing from you soon

This is the iwi2200.kext v4 with the ipw2200-fw-3.0 firmware translated with hex2string.

 

The source code no longer depends on the ieee80211 linux library (the functions go to

deep into the linux kernel and i'll only use some of them when needed).

 

The splitfw is a utility for those who need to port other linux intel drivers firmware.

iwi2200_source.zip

iwi2200_v4.kext.zip

[jacksont123]

Is this actually able to connect to the internet, or does it just detect the networks? I am not able to try this yet for I have Intel Wireless 3945a/b/g Edited January 9, 2007 by jacksont123

[wvheeswijk]

does it matter if you have set your Mac language to something else than english...cause I use dutch...and when I enter the terminal en type things like"sudo chmod -R 755 iwi2200.kext" it says no file excists....

[wvheeswijk]

by the way...jalavoui. could you mail me/ or post...a tutorial...thanks

[mifki]

FInally, i have hte source, now i am comparing between wha javaloui has and what i already ahve. Thanks for the source, gonna be a long night ahead :censored2:

just loaded up version 4 of your iwi2200.kext on 10.4.8 aka 8.4.1 (=! semthex)

wvheeswijk, it doesnt matter what language you have set.

just follow these steps to try this port:
