Installed iwi3945 from post 2923. No kernel panics whatsoever. But, as Gundam, my network selector doesn't seem to work. It shows 00:00:00.... as my MAC Address.

 

These are my logs. Thanks for your efforts jalavoui and the rest of the guys here.

all previous logs you've been posting are wrong - seems to old for the changes i've made

maybe i've upload the wrong file

try this one and look at system.log before posting to check if there are any changes in the driver

 

if you see this in log:

 

- Card state received: HW:Off SW:On (this happens when you press the switcher / fn+F2)

- RFKILL status: = 0x1 rfkill2 0x1

or other value with rfkill2=0x1

 

means that the card is off

you'll have to reboot from windows with the card powered on into mac os to test the driver

 

if you get a panic:

boot with -s

take a picture and post it here

 

in this version you should see a line in log like this:

 

ipw_bg_alive_start

 

i haven't see this in previous logs you've posted so i guess i've upload the wrong file

iwi3945.dmg

i installed (upgraded) using the file you just now attached and rebooted. Good news is that i don't see the RFKILL status in any form. However, i do not show any IPW_bg_alive_start either. In looking at the log from earlier today, showed the rfkill status. I'll update with logs in a few mins hopefully.

Installed for PROSet/Wireless 3945a/b/g from http://code.google.com/p/iwidarwin/

 

When i rebooted it crashed (press shut down button etc) then i rebooted it again ... the osx went through fine.

 

However it crashes all the time when im booting up ... im using Uphuck 10.4.9 v1.4i

 

Anyway when i clicked on the network icon within system prefs i got "PCI Ethernet Slot pci8086, 4222" is installed. It appears in the dropdown list but not as a green (or red or amber) icon as detected. When i select "PCI Ethernet Slot pci8086, 4222" option I get all the tabbed options like TCP/IP, PPPoE, AppleTalk, Proxies and Ethernet. When I click on Ethernet .. I do get an id etc with configure set to auto. When I click on safari there's no internet etc.

 

Not sure if all this is working or not! But that's what happened on my machine.

 

BTW is the one on http://code.google.com/p/iwidarwin the same attachment download on jalavoui post #2928?

Its official, i don't know which direction i have to move the slider to know if it is on or off. to the left is a wireless icon, but to the right is a light. i would imagine it is to the left towards the icon but i have no way of telling because the logs look identical when i reboot in either direction. i guess i'll have to reinstall vista but i can't find my dvd!

RFKILL base status: 0x1 rfkill2 0x0

 

in the latest dmg you uploaded I got something in network selector when pressing 2 for a network list "The card is disabled. Try to enable the card with the softwareand /or hardware switch."

 

how would I reboot into windows if I'm just running OS X as a primary OS? Should I install boot camp in this case?

The logs of the uploaded version from post #2933, with comments included in system.txt and a capture of Network Selector window after trying to find wireless networks (assuming that wireless card is working - unfortunately not yet!) :P

 

same problem of mine here..

 

so close..

iwi2100/3945

finally figure out why the drivers aren't sending packets

this could make them to start working

please test option (1) from networkselector a few times so i can check it

Eddi

well, i tried the last iwi3945 with these results.

 

1. Also, when I pressed (1) two times I got a Kernel Panic.

2. I tried booting from windows, making sure that my wireless is on, but I still see that rfkill2 thing on the system log.

3. When I start network selector and type (2) I get a message saying that mi wireless is off, I turned on with option (1). Now I get the usual say hello to the world message.

 

I ended up posting the logs anyway, hope it helps. Thanks for your work jalavoui.

 

Cheers

iwi2100/3945

could use faster logs

this version fixes the mbuf allocation bug from last release

if you get a kernel panic post the picture

 

if there's not enought people to test it i'll just abandon this project

 

thank you all

iwi2100.dmg

logs from iwi3945 attached above, no panic this time, only rebooting from OSX, with you wish I can take a after windows reboot logs...

Here is the logs jalavoui.

I also attached dmesg output when I first kextload the driver.

Hi !

 

I could help you to debug the software and develop it but, how I can obtain/create the log files ?

 

I've installed the latest iwi3945 driver on my laptop (HP Pavillon dv5245ea) but it still not working. The interface was detected in the network manager (pci8086,4222) but I can't setup it.

 

Network manager doesn't work (mac adress at 0) but I haven't kernels panic and, the iwi3945.kext seems to load successfuly.

 

ifconfig command returns that the wireless card is up but, the mac adress is always at 0. Note that if I try "ifconfig en3 up" or "ifconfig en3 down" (en3 is my wireless card), the card seems to up / down. I Think there is a problem when the driver try to obtain the mac adress of the card.
