if you have build it post the logs here

 

I build it on my D630, didn't get any errors, few warnings

didn't see the .dmg file so i copied the kext produced (Debug mode) to my /System/Library/Extension.

I got kernel panic so i removed it.

Is it the good way to install it ?

Didn't looked at the log sorry, but I can make an other try.

Try Kext Helper in the Applications folder to install the kext

hey , hi,

 

ive had sucess in installation of leopard via iatkos disk,, every thin was gud runnin ok,

i had installed an Nvinject Vedio Driver and other sound drivers,

so like after a day or 2, the system suddenly started responding slowly, actually very slow,

since then i did a complete reinstallations couple of times, but in vain, the system remained slow.

 

 

and now after installation of Nvinject of same version i get an Kernel Panic,

 

the mac drive isnt visible in Macdrive 7 in windows. i just get an partition which i cant acess. ( it was working for earlier install).

 

and how to uninstall an Particular Driver like ( nvinject) if we get Kernel Panic?

PLEASE!

Everybody who keeps asking when the driver will be ready: I'm shure the bright developers will let you know when the drivers are finished.

 

The productive thing for you is not to post those questions here, but to donate to the project so that we take away such hurdles from the developers.

 

Info on what drivers are stable etc (Including donation details) is easily found on the project homepage: http://code.google.com/p/iwidarwin/

 

/BE

 

PS: Jalavoui, maybe some more details on what you need the donations for would in crease them?

Hello ,

one KP is left on the driver in ieee80211_if_add :

	}*/

//FIXME: Kernel Panic herre !
//list_add(&sdata->list, &local->sub_if_list);
if (new_dev)
	*new_dev = ndev;

. This week and the next I have examination , so I will not work on the driver a lot.

 

But I can help you during those two weeks .

 

Bye.

TNW, how do you debug this ?

Maybe I could help (not used to low level coding but...) but I hope you don't have to reboot every time you want to test a modification...

So I wanted to know what is your developpement environement, do you use an emulator with kaliway on it ?

Thanks for answers... If you have time :)

Hello.

 

I devellop the driver with Xcode . and I debug it with address given in the KP and IDA pro over crossover.

For instance:

 

KP on 0x21fa23de

Driver load on 0x21f97000

 

To find the bad instruction open the binarie in the "Content" directory of the kext with IDA and jump to:

0x21fa23de - 0x21f97000 - 0x1000(size of the kernel) = 0xa3de

 

Bye

Hi guys, been out of the country and away from the project, but was neat to look through and catch up on everything. Re: 2200, I haven't had time yet to upgrade to Leopard, so if someone can build the latest Intel 2200 code jalavoui has released for 10.4 & 10.5, I'd be happy to test 10.4 first and post my logs / report if there's any difference on the Tx issue, and then can upgrade to 10.5 and do the same. Let me know.

 

Many thanks.

I just wanted to say that I have gotten IWI2200 working on Kalyway 10.5.1. :blink: Steps:

  1. Install using installer from Google code site
  2. Reboot.
  3. If you get an error when you reboot saying "iwi2200.kext was improperly installed and could not be loaded" or something like that, it might be a permissions problem;Go the terminal and enter the following commands:
     
     cd /System/Library/Extensions
 sudo chown -R  root:wheel iwi2200.kext


     
    This should allow the module to be loaded. You can test it by entering
     

      sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/iwi2200.kext


     
    If it doesn't load, look at the output, and figure it out I guess.

  4. Start nsGUI and go to the icon right near the clock (little blue wavy things) and click Set Power On from the menu.
  5. Wait a couple of seconds, and then go to the nsGUI menu and select your network from the list.
  6. Try to visit a web page! For me, I had go into System Preferences>Network and create an Ethernet adapter and set it to DHCP before it started working.

That's the basic idea. If you can't figure it out, try applying more brainpower to the problem. If you still can't figure it out, you can PM or something I guess.

(For French boarders only : TNW je te dis un gros M... pour tes exams :()

 

 

I have finally decided to install MacOSX 10.5 (x86) on my Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo U9200 Laptop (Intel 3945 ABGN) .. so i'm interested in testing the beta drivers ... i will try to find a good place to download Xcode and read/check sources codes and try to get it working.

 

Keep up the good work coders ! The community is growing up ! ;)
