jalavoui Posted March 20, 2007 Author Share Posted March 20, 2007 for your pleasure i am uploading two files: good work i've added your gmail to iwidarwin site you can enter and put source/bin files there you've admin access on iwidarwin (be carefull if using svn) iwi2100/2200/3945 can someone try to add code to moseschrist app to allow the card to be powered on/off? all cards that don't have a wireless button will need this to power the card on/off if I load it manually then I have the attached kextload error message. i see ieee80211_network_reset in your log i think i forgot to write this function... this is easy to fix (just take it from iwi2200) i think that other problems will show up in rev 231 can you use xcode and try to build it?

moseschrist Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 jalavoui: turn the power on and off, it is a great idea ! i'll get right on it ! just tell me which functino turn the card on and off... and it will be done Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/53/#findComment-328315 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalavoui Posted March 20, 2007 Author Share Posted March 20, 2007 moseschrist if you like you should write a wiki page on iwidarwin about you app it can be usefull for future referense you can use the "issues" to assign/require new tasks to the project. if you're trying to use svn - try to do some upload/commit in the "tags" folder before final commiting to "trunk" i've made lots of mistakes in svn - it's tricky sometimes Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/53/#findComment-328325 Share on other sites More sharing options...
moseschrist Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 ok, i'll try that once i get the card kickstart functioning. about the wiki, i will put it on when the app will have some kind of user interface (even textual) can you give some hints about the startup process of the card ?

Pablo(2) Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 FlipHDK, Jalaoui, moseschrist and Fullout, I am having problems installing the iwi3945.kext extension on my laptop and am hoping that you can help me out. In reading through this forum I see that several members have been successful in getting the driver to load so there must be something that I am doing incorrectly. The files that I am installing are the latest ones posted on this forum. 1) apple80211.framework - there is no version but the file size is 5,448,097 bytes 2) io80211family.kext - version 1.1.2 copyright apple 2005, file size is 3,757,421 bytes 3) iwi3945.kext - version copyright joel thomas 2005, the file size is 887,542 bytes. The iwi3945.dmg file was posted on this forum on March 11. I used pacifist (2.0.1) to extract iwi3945.kext. The following steps are the procedures I used as root (sudo -s): 1) + cp -R /system/library/privateframeworks/Apple80211.framework /system/library/privateframeworks/backup + rm -R /system/library/privateframeworks/Apple80211.framework + cp -R /users/paul/desktop/io802insanelymacfiles/Apple80211.framework /system/library/privateframeworks 2) + cp -R /system/library/extensions/IO80211Family.kext /system/library/extensions/backup + rm -R /system/library/extensions/IO80211Family.kext + cp -R /users/paul/desktop/io802insanelymacfiles/IO80211Family.kext /system/library/extensions 3) + chown -R root:wheel /system/library/extensions/ IO80211Family.kext + chown -R 755 /system/library/extensions/IO80211Family.kext + rm /system/library/extensions.* rm: /system/library/extensions.*: No such file or directory + kextcache -k /system/library/extensions 4) + cp -R /users/paul/desktop/io802insanelymacfiles/iwi3945.kext /system/library/extensions 5) + chown -R root:wheel /system/library/extensions/iwi3945.kext + chown -R 755 /system/library/extensions/iwi3945.kext + rm /system/library/extensions.kextcache + kextcache -k /system/library/extensions 6) Restart 7) The the OS starts and I get 2 dialogue boxes reporting that the io80211family.kext cannot be loaded. The same for iwi3945.kext 8) I then ran the following: root# kextload -t /system/library/extensions/io80211family.kext kernel extension /system/library/extensions/io80211family.kext has problems: Authentication failures: { "File owner/permissions are incorrect" = ( "/system/library/extensions/io80211family.kext" "/system/library/extensions/io80211family.kext/Contents/Info.plist" "/system/library/extensions/io80211family.kext/Contents" "/system/library/extensions/io80211family.kext/Contents/MacOS/IO80211Family" "/system/library/extensions/io80211family.kext/Contents/MacOS" ) } 9) I then ran the follwoing: root# kextload -t /system/library/extensions/iwi3945.kext kernel extension /system/library/extensions/iwi3945.kext has problems: Authentication failures: { "File owner/permissions are incorrect" = ( "/system/library/extensions/iwi3945.kext" "/system/library/extensions/iwi3945.kext/Contents/Info.plist" "/system/library/extensions/iwi3945.kext/Contents" "/system/library/extensions/iwi3945.kext/Contents/MacOS/iwi3945" "/system/library/extensions/iwi3945.kext/Contents/MacOS" ) } Missing dependencies: { "com.apple.iokit.IO80211Family" = "No valid version of this dependency can be found" } 10) I then removed the iei3945.kext file and then ran the following: + rm '/system/library/extensions.*' rm: /system/library/extensions.*: No such file or directory + kextcache -k /system/library/extensions 11) Restart 12) No error messages. At this point I am stuck and hope that you can provide some guidance. My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A105-S4364 with: a) 2GB Ram T5500 Intel Core 2 Duo processor c) 160GBb hard disk d) Intel PROSet 3945ABGg Network Connection (Windows XP device ID: PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4222&SUBSYS_10480806&REV_02\4&2803E7C1&0&00E2) e) Jas Mac OS X 10.4.6 upgraded to version 10.4.7 via Jas Mac OS X update. Kernal Simthex 8.8.1 f) In addition, my laptop dual boots to Mac OS x 10.4.8 and Windows XP Media Center. Thanks for any guidance you might be able to give me.

jalavoui Posted March 20, 2007 Author Share Posted March 20, 2007 just tell me which functino turn the card on and off... and it will be done i'm very unsure about this in iwi2200 - check the handleinterrupt() and ipw_rf_kill() there's some code in ipw2200.cpp that check the card state. you'll have to do some research on this. not that when power goes down: the card stops scan/association when it goes on - should start scanning for iwi2100 and iwi3945 will be easier - anyone who can do this please help another usefull thing to do is: separate the network list in 2 ways: valid and invalid nets (and secure/unsecure) check ipw_bestnetwork(). i have a network that i can associate if i ignore the channel validation can you give some hints about the startup process of the card ? i've written the function sequence in previous posts. but in this case they should be: when the card goes on: call ipw_adapter_restart () when the card goes off: ipw_down() this has to do with priv->status "status" 1) apple80211.framework - there is no version but the file size is 5,448,097 bytes 2) io80211family.kext - version 1.1.2 copyright apple 2005, file size is 3,757,421 bytes iwi3945.dmg file was posted on this forum on March 11. I used pacifist (2.0.1) to extract you no longer need the apple80211 files - ignore them see the previous post of iwi3945.dmg link you only need to open it and install ps: when the card goes off: ipw_link_down() i just noticed that i can edit my #1 post can someone help me on write a decent post for it? in english - of course - Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/53/#findComment-328338 Share on other sites More sharing options...

moseschrist Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 another progress: implemented software startup. the application can now startup a shutdown card (p_disable = 1) i will now try to implement shut down to the application and publish a new version with textual menu. shutdown update: here is the thing, when the driver gets the shutdown signal, it automaticly starts up after the shutdown. anyone who knows the code has any idea about that ?

Pablo(2) Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 jalaoui, i downloaded the iwi3945.dmg (ver 230) file from the march 19 posting. i then reset all of the modified folders to their settings and then re-installed the io80211family.kext folder. i then installed the iei3945.dmg image and the install completed successfully. i restarted the OS and did not encounter any errors. before my laptop would lockup on the apple logo display. in the system preferences folder the network shows an additional "Show:" called "PCI Ethernet Slot PCI". so i am making good progress. however, i am not able to configure the port. as soon as i connect my ethernet cable and select "Built-in-Ethernet" the connection is successful. i think the dmesg.txt and system.txt files should provide some useful information to help. many thanks for the assist. have a great day! pablo(2) dmesg.txt ioreg.txt System.txt Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/53/#findComment-328457 Share on other sites More sharing options...

moseschrist Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 no, jalavoui is the man behind the drivers, for now i only work on user interfaces and such... i have to understand the code better in order to code the driver... but i will eventually, once i get this program to do what we need, i'll start working on coding the driver itself Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/53/#findComment-328852 Share on other sites More sharing options...

moseschrist Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 sorry for not uploading the updated versions, there was some kind of network error in my dorms last night, and now i'm on wireless in my university, so i can't upload due to the upload/download bug. i'll be in the dorms in a couple of hours so i'll upload the files then to the iwidarwin site. BTW, i updated the versions to your latest version. also added a menu to choose from, currently the application and driver have the capability to turn on when shut down and view all networks (seems like even hidden ones ! it doesn't show the name of the network, but they are on the list...)
