WaldMeister Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 (edited) ok, I'm almost there, the only thing preventing me from connecting is that I can't turn my airport on. I replaced all the files from the AirportExtremeUpdate, with the ones from the 10.4.8 Intel Update. Did I mis something, or it normal that the card can't be turned on?

patatester Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 (edited) jalavoui thats good news. I will test this driver as soon as i get back home tonight and also check the attachInterface, resetDevice and that line you said to uncomment if everything was stable. And yes it SEEMS like the firmware is loading, i will confirm tonight. This line doesnt look too good to me, it is in FlipHDK's dmesg iwi3945: uCode file size 0 too small Anyway to determine for sure if the firmware is loading? Let me know and, it seems like there a 5second loop which prints out the mac address in /var/log/system.log . never stops to iterate it seems... i think top priority to be able to further debug the driver is to associate the mac to the interface Edited March 2, 2007 by patatester Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/39/#findComment-315034 Share on other sites More sharing options...

patatester Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 (edited) Ok, done some xcoding, got the mac address loaded on my machine correctly, same as in linux ! jalavoui, change the ifnet_setlladdress or whatever that was, i commented that then in ::start(), i uncommented the line ipw_sw_reset and ipw_nic_up. ipw_nic_up is the one which loads the eprom and associates the mac address if im not mistaking. Therefore the airport menu shows the correct mac address for the device. Now the problem is im still running under 10.4.8, due to my lazyness to downgrade to 10.4.7, and my desire to make this work under 10.4.8 if possible. As for SVN, ive never used before, but i think i could manage after some wiki exploration. So heres the kext for everyone who wants to test. Post your results!
