2200bg freeze up after 30minutes! i dont know how to fix this anyone can anyone help me? it freezed while i was download 2gb file by bittorent and keep do this every thirty minute and i have to turn off my computer and comeback please helP!~!!!!!

 

I thik you cant download anything bigger than 300mbs+ because of the memory leek bug.

 

If its fixed then i dont know whats the problem.

 

I tried to download a demo and couldnt because it was 400mb , os X froze.

 

Laters..

iwi2100

 

since last version as all the code needed to make the driver work, now is time to find where the driver crashes.

boot with -s option, then type

cd /System/Library/Extensions

kextload iwi2100.kext

 

send me a picture,log of what happens so i can fix and make the driver work - it's about time

i still haven't find a way to fix the mem leak bug - it's killing me

 

iwi3945

need to write missing rx functions

 

 

all iwi drivers

 

please check you system.log file before sending - checkm if the file as all the log from drive start - end

otherwise i don't understand the logs

 

 

ciper,

i like you idea about the options stuff - can you try to write some code for that?

 

where's moses? he's the guy who started networkselector

 

about the mem leek bug

 

who can explain me this?

 

Macx86:~ root# netstat -m

599 mbufs in use:

595 mbufs allocated to data

3 mbufs allocated to socket names and addresses

1 mbufs allocated to Appletalk data blocks

238/544 mbuf clusters in use

0/16 mbuf 4KB clusters in use

1301 Kbytes allocated to network (48% in use)

0 requests for memory denied

0 requests for memory delayed

0 calls to protocol drain routines

I wish you luck with this one. This is the only thing that frustrates me about the driver. I use FrostWire client and larger downloads are interupted about every 30 min, just as uridongsan. The computer locks up renedering it unusable until restart.

 

Otherwise, the driver is excellent :)

i ve asked some people about Macx86:~ root# netstat -m

595 mbufs allocated to data

1 mbufs allocated to Appletalk data blocks

and they had no clue even some of them were pretty good at linux commandlines and had knolowdege in computing.. i will ask more people and i hope you can solve the problem

Do I still need the:

Apple80211.framework and IO80211Family.kext from 10.4.7

frameowrk for iwi3945?

No, the 10.4.8 and the 10.4.9 work aswell, i don't know about the previous versions tho...

I don't even know if it's still included :unsure:

Do you mean the LED is not working automatically when connected? Right now the only time the LED works is when you manually tell it to through the NetworkSelector menu.

 

The wired adapter should be able to live along side the wireless. I have a broadcom 57xx wired nic working fine with my 2915abg installed. If you really want to change the wireless to EN1 (or whatever) you could start at step 11 of this procedure http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=44114

 

If you purchase a USB/PCMCIA wireless card that uses a non intel chipset you shouldnt have any incompatibility issues. I have tried a PCMCIA card on my laptop and afterwards the 2915 still worked.

 

Ill add something about this to the FAQ just for you :tomato:

 

Thanks for the info :) What I meant for the LED is that I'm not able to switch it on/off through the menu (as you describe here), although after having used the software for a few days now, I've noticed that it works somewhat sporadically. Every once in a while I can switch it on, but as soon as I connect to a network the LED goes back out, and it will not come back on after connecting. I've tried enabling it after connecting, before connecting, and before turning the card on (although that seems kind of silly) and have had these same results regardless.

 

I know it's not really important, and it really doesn't bother me personally. I just figure that somewhere along the lines in later stages of development people will be asking about this, and figured maybe someone else has had the same problem.

 

Other than that, the driver has been working wonderfully. I've stayed connected to my home wireless with this for hours at a time without issue.

iwi3945 rev 337

added mising code for rx

the driver as all the code needed to work

i hope with some debuging and small fixes it will finally work

 

 

iwi2100 rev 338

find a bug in netstats - hope this fixes kernel panic

i ve asked some people about Macx86:~ root# netstat -m

599 mbufs in use:

595 mbufs allocated to data

3 mbufs allocated to socket names and addresses

1 mbufs allocated to Appletalk data blocks

238/544 mbuf clusters in use

0/16 mbuf 4KB clusters in use

1301 Kbytes allocated to network (48% in use)

0 requests for memory denied

0 requests for memory delayed

0 calls to protocol drain routines

 

when the driver freezes you get

 

xxx/8192 mbuf clusters in use

 

where xxx is a number near 8192

 

i think other network drivers should also have this bug - just need to ask to the right person

I pressed the button some times and it didn't change.

 

ok -i 'll try something diferrent in code and upload a new version

 

hmmm

 

you have in you log

 

iwi3945: getState = 1e

 

this means something is disabling the device

 

try rebooting from windows with the card powered on into mac os x

 

i have a hack in RxQueueIntr() to try to skip the radio problem - i'll need to see more logs before change the code

-x-

 

I did that, in fact, I always do that, reboot with the power on.

any other thing that I can try here?

Hi Jalavoui...

 

Same Same here... I tried to switch the button - bu nothing happened.

When I check the Network Interface - all the 3: Firewire; Ethernet and the PCI {censored} - are black (not grey) (maybe it's working?)

but there is no way to configure it somehow...

I hope it's help somehow...

post system.log from the driver start loading/end so i can understand the problem

 

 

thanks xhemp, deadmobile

 

 

can someone try to add networkselector to iwi3945? if the turn radio on/off worked for this card it will help a lot

 

rev 339

http://code.google.com/p/iwidarwin/

 

let me know if it works

Here are the log >> rev 337

iwi3945 rev 339:

 

After I installed it, I restart and when the system log in - the login window - it's freese after 1 sec.

Maybe there is something that crushing it? a Wireless sign?

Dunno...
