jalavoui · July 3, 2007

here are the latest results with the actual 2100 driver.

if the driver dont panic, try option (1) of networkselector to turn the card on.

boot with -s and post the picture if you get a kernel panic.

what is this error about? when i restart my computer

boot with -s

type sh /etc/rc

tytpe ifconfig to see if en0/1 as the same mac address as show in the sceeen log

post the iwi logs here (download the script from iwidarwin site)

if you get a panic post the picture

Hi All!

I recently got Mac OS X working on my HP dv6375us after giving up several months ago on my main computer.

After evaluating what was not working, the only thing left to fix is the Wireless Intel 3945abg MiniPCI.

So I guess I'll help with the research here and post my logs.

Mac OS X 86 (10.4.10)

Kernel 8.10.1

iwidarwin3945 Rev. 475

Intel 3945abg via MiniPCI.

Hope this helps, and let me know if I can help in anything.

Rickyroko

EDIT: BTW, My machine has a wireless kill switch interuptor (Left Off, Right On). Running SSE3.

Special Thanks to jalavoui for all your/his hard work!

if the driver dont panic, try option (1) of networkselector to turn the card on.
boot with -s and post the picture if you get a kernel panic.

Hey jalavoui, my Notebook is a thinkpad R40. When the system is starting, the LED for the wireless is flashing. In windows it's like searching for a network. But when i'm starting the networkselector or the connection settings the system is freezing with the screen like toxics picture.

ragbuy · July 6, 2007

sorry if I'm going to ask this... how to boot with -s ???

thanks

JustJoe · July 6, 2007

hold down F8 while booting.

select your Mac boot drive. Don't press enter.

The bottom line will let you type in boot options.

type -s and press enter.

tada.

JustJoe · July 6, 2007

To all the new guys: Welcome.

Intel ProWireless cards are not recognized as Airport, and likely never will be.

Drivers are still in development, as is an awesome GUI.

networkSelector only works for some cards.

Encryption is not implemented yet.

Take a look at this site. It has an FAQ and all kinds of info.

When you need to post logs, unzip and use this utility and post the text files here as attachments.

We'll get there, just have some patience and help when you can.

auqs10 · July 7, 2007

Hi diligent people envolved to solve the Intel Pro WireLess 3945 a/b/g problem under osx.

Many thanks to Jalavoui and all of you contributing to these developments.

I have a Dell Inspiron 6400/E1505 with Intel Core 2 Duo T7200, but unfortunately with Intel Wireless 3945 a/b/g card, that is not working under MacOSX 10.4.10 (and didn't work with previous versions 10.4.7 to present one). The iwi3945.dmg installed is the latest one downloaded from internet. Here are the logs recorded with the command posted by JustJoe (THANKS).

Launching the Network Selector the options 1 (turn card on), 2 (network list) and 3 (switch led) were executed but no result (not even the led, still not lighted).

Hope will help us finally to start working.

jalavoui · July 7, 2007

iwi3945

after installing the driver use networkselector option (1). don't use other options

the goal is to test what happens when the card is switched on/off

this is also for the 2100/4965 cards

there are some bugs in code - if anyone can download it from svn please help fixing it

thank you all

JustJoe,

can you remove old .dmg of iwi2200 and put the rel 475 in iwidarwin downloads? it's stable enought to be there. put it as "featured" so that it shows in the main page

SSJ4Gokou · July 7, 2007

I have an alienware NB with 1 gig Ram intel core 2 and 3945a/b/g/ wireless. I have downloaded the iwi3945 v11 and everytime that i install it it asks me to reboot i reboot but when i go to boot up in mac os x 10.4.8 i AWLAYS get a kernel panic.... Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the samething???

auqs10 · July 8, 2007

Hi Jalavoui, here are the recorded logs before applying the Network Selector option 1 (exactly after system launch), and also after applying that NS. Thanks for indications, I am just a simple user, but I can reply with my experiences on laptop usage.

I'm having a problem everytime I try to install iwi3945 I get a error:

There were errors installing the software /

Please try installing again.

Now I tried to install Safari 3 beta I get the same message so it must be something with OSX... I just patched it to 10.4.9 thats the only thing new.

moseschrist · July 9, 2007

hey guys, i just dropped by to explain why i haven't been here for so long...

we have entered the finals period here in my university, and i was swamped by assignment and my job so i havn't had time to look at the code, let alone do any work...

i'll be back hopefully next month, and and at worst case, by the end of august i'm here full power

see you soon guys...

CyberTron · July 9, 2007

Hi,

Haven't been on macos for a long time (since 10.4.4) and a lot has happened. I now have a new laptop which runs MacOSX perfectly except for the wireless part. My card is a Intel 3945 and I have downloaded the driver, and Installed it. But there it ends, nothing, I can't run the util that came with it because it spits out "could not get ID for kernel control. 2"

which if I understand correctly means that the driver hasn't loaded. although when I run kextload iwi3945.kext it says "already loaded"

any ideas?
