jalavoui Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 Geneman, you have a hardware conflict problem you can try to change the info,plist - remove all other values and leave only 0x42208086 i f this don't work: google for compatible devices id and replace 0x42208086 wih other values iwi3945 fix for power_table iwi3945.dmg Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/130/#findComment-486572 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geneman Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 sigh...I am about to give up. I can't find any conflict. Though, now System Profiler sayes there are no PCI-cards installed. I am almost sure that before the reinstall I had cards there. Frustrating to know to almost be there an have a fulle functional system, but taking hours to this last step....but okay. MacOS is worth it. Jalavoui, to be sure, I have to google the ID to see what device is conflicting?

Geneman Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 you need to find a value that work for your card - it's not easy to find but google might helptry to search for other thing than pcixxxx,xxxx -> mac os support other values for the pcimatch there are several ways to identify your hardware in the info.plist file -> try to google and you might find a fix for instance you can add IOPCIPrimaryMatch and IOPCISecondaryMatch to the info.plist if this helps to detect your hardware Hi Jalavoui, thank you for your answers. I checked the developer docs of Apple and found more info about IOPCIPrimaryMatch and IOPCISecondaryMatch, I checked the information in Windows about the card and any values I can find. Non of the values give a match. No subsystems, vendorid's, I even tried masking. No results. I have the idea something else is going on. Maybe it's the firmware of the card. When I check ioreg I see there is an actual match on PCI8086,2440, this should be iwi2200 isn't it? I also tried to manually set the ethernet card in /Library/Preferences/NetworkPreferences and fix en0 with pci8086,2440 and the iwi2200 driver, though MacOS resets these values at startup, so also no solution. I am running out of options. Is there a chance my card is not supported even though it should? thanks.

lusp00ky Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Hi, my card is not being detected at all.. I tried many versions of the driver found here, but with no success. Everytime I tried a new version, I removed the old kext, restarted, installed the new ones and restarted again. I dunno if my Acer laptop turn on the wireless card on boot, and I can't do that by using a switch, because it's a "slide" switch with a led, I have to slide to turning on and off. I tried turning it on on Windows and rebooted, but that didn't work either. Btw, I'm using mac.nub 10.4.10 with 8.10.1 kernel. Note: Acer laptops with Intel 3945abg wireless cards are very popular here in Brazil. ioreg.txt system.txt dmesg.txt Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/130/#findComment-487306 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jalavoui Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 iwi3945 cmd timeouts fix geneman, you know that the info.plist works better if you only add one entry at a time if you have 0x42208086, 0xaaa,bbbb it will search for 2 matchs better to try only one value i don't see any other solution for this problem have you tried mac os 10.5? can you explain better what happen when you try pci8086,2440? it's also possible that the card is plugged on a pci slot that mac os have no driver acess - this is a problem with pci/pci-express devices you can try to attach the card to other slots if you have any available iwi3945.dmg Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/130/#findComment-487516 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaaspad Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Hi Jalavoui, I've been trying to follow this discussion, unfortunately I've never actually used a Mac in my life until today when I installed the osx86 version of Leopard (10.5 I think it is) on my Thinkpad X60 tablet, installation went easy and all seems to be working except the 3945 (and some hibernation/sleep stuff which is much less important). The only OS I really know is Linux and I have no problem running iwl3945 as well as ipw3945 and ipwraw kernel modules on my laptop. Could you please explain what a kext is (I'm thinking its a kernel module) and how I would install it and modprobe it. Also how do I use the dmg's you are posting and do they work in Leopard ? If not if you can give me some source and a little direction I could try to compile something myself....
