jalavoui - it's very hard to reesteblish my network connections after unplug, I waste an hour to setup all my network stuff back...

 

get KP with rel 995 and freezes, and timeouts

Yep, no matter the card starts with or without errors, always these are the last lines for me:

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.

edit-

I tried this again and have attached the full log from restart to desktop.

syslog.txt

[@irBOrNE]

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:)

 

Edit: here are two better logs... the one has several reboots with the best log in it

iwi4965.kext.zip

system.txt

system1.txt

[Lofn]

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 :/

calculus = ew

iwi2200_build803.pkg.zip

[Sophitia]

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 ^^;;

Connection with Static IP OK!!

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 ^^;;

[jalavoui]

post the full log

search for ieee80211_sta_config_auth in logs

[Sophitia]

Here is the new log. I found 1 in there.

r998 4965

Excuse my noobness ^^;;

system.log.txt

[Doctadre]

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?

systemlog997.txt

[jalavoui]

the driver needs all this functions:

that is the mac address of my network:)

Here is the log

P.S no KP after several reboot. Driver seems fine

system.log.txt

[Doctadre]

Still the same errors, although some different activity going on as it looks to start something, but fails due to the errors. Hope some other 3945 testers can try this out

 

iwi3945rel999 give it a try post your logs

systemlog999.txt

iwi3945rel999.kext.zip

[jalavoui]

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

[Larry R]

iwi4965 v100

 

I've made progress on getting log files off my machine now. I'm running into issues trying to get the module to even load.

in reading the install/testing guide as well as some other messages about testing I found what I believe to be the solution, but I dont know where/how to get the file in question.

First from the logs:

larryroberts$ sudo kextload -t iwi4965.kext

 

Password:

 

kernel extension iwi4965.kext has problems:

 

Missing dependencies:

 

{

 

"com.apple.iokit.IO80211Family" =

 

"A valid compatible version of this dependency cannot be found"

 

}

 

 

 

 

I read a couple threads about people replacing some kext with the original, but I dont know for sure which kext, or for that matter where to get the original. Would love to be able to help out more, but right now I'm still in noob mode.

 

Anyone care to share a little more insight?

[sheringham]

Well did install the rel 999 for iwi3945 , but still not seem in the Mac info. ( under network)

See the log file. ( not sure if its the right one, BUT I hope it hope it can be to some use.

system.log.zip

[Drakulix]

I have a question. When the driver is finished would it be an AirPort Driver? So will I need no extra Program like a real AirPort Card??

Sorry for my bad English..

 

Drakulix

[Sophitia]

r1002 4965

No more auth found. I let it run a bit more (the log is big now) and did a search but still no auth.

no KP. Gonna reboot now, if KP i ll post.

@sherringham: Can you open Network then press + (add) and check if there's an extra Ethernet available? (If you have Ethernet working already then there should be 2 Ethernet, otherwise there would be only 1). The new extra Ethernet is the one installed by the iwi kext. I had the same problem but then I found out that if I add that extra ethernet as a network there will be an extra ethernet with my 4965 Mac address under Mac Info.

@Drakulix: Read the google code website FAQ more carefully. No it will not be an airport, it will show up as an Ethernet network and you need an appropriate networkSelector to go with it.

 

P.S. How can you make such a small log? Mine's always so big >.< I dont know when to stop logging sorry >.<

What we should try in this line Jalavoui?

Could you give me a example?
