Sorry, I'm a noob at this, please instruct me on how do I configure en1 in system preferences and I'll try again.

aleluia

a good log

reboot and check if can make it load without errors on first log lines

if you can do it them call networkselector and try to scan

open console -> system.log first before press scan (only once)

looks like networselector panics when closed -> leave it opened

 

is anyone trying this in mac os x 10.4?

might work much better there

 

i feel very tempted to change code

better wait for more logs

 

please post the .dmg or iwi3945.kext and networkselector for others to test

 

one important question:

in os x 10.5 when you boot with -s does iwi3945 auto loads?

this is the expected behaviour in os x 10.4

 

i'll come tomorrow

thanks everyone for helping

[SuperInsanity]

what errors do you get when pressing build in xcode?

 

 

Here's the Xcode build errrors. Plus the logs from my system, I was able to grab them just before the freeze-up.

 

Still no .dmg being built.

ok ... more logs after a few reboots ... the main problem is that the system freezes qhuick and is hard to gt those log files

Hey Jalavoui, I'm getting these errors in xcode when i compile or build the kext file. Running xcode 3 on 10.5.2 for 2200 driver.

 

Didn't get a chance to see if it worked at school but if i can build it i'll test tomorrow. All day i'll be there. So when i build it should create a .dmg file for install correct? And i can use it to install the driver right?

 

Thanks

 

k weird now i'm just getting these errors. Don't remember the other errors i had. Thanks

one important question:

Doesnt look like it, no output on screen atleast

 

booted with the kext enabled now, logs and kext attatched (738). (got kp a few times on login screen)

tried scan with network selector too..

 

got tons of startup spam, debug stuff !

 

i hope this helps

Logs Revision 738

 

[Wayfarer247]

Hey Guys, I have been doing some research into the 3945 Wireless card, thinking of trying to get Jalavoui a Laptop with one in it . Is there any difference between the 3945 minicard and what we are working on right now? I don't think there would be much of a difference, but I wanted to make sure. I am seeing how cheap a laptop I can get/make and still have the card in it.

 

Or perhaps a Desktop? Some cheap Desktop with a slot for a Network card? Ideas?

[mlazy]

Hey all,

 

I finally got Jalavoui's build 738 into a .pkg file. Please test the version below for him and post the logs. Once I figure out the .dmg trick, I'll post that too.

 

This installer places 2 files:

 

iwi3945.kext in /System/Library/Exetnsions

and

networkselector in /Applications

 

As always, we are not responsible for anything that happens to your machine etc...... test at your own risk. (I feel better now)

 

to remove this stuff:

 

boot in single user mode with -s

when it's ready, type "/sbin/mount -uw /" (press enter)

then type "cd /System/Library/Extensions" (press enter)

then type "rm -R iwi3945.kext"

then type "reboot" (press enter)

 

good luck!

 

 

 

Update: .dmg file available at:

 

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

[mtheory]

Thanks! I installed i, and reboot went fine.

 

However, still, nothing new shows up in network config.

When I open networkSelector, it gives me a "Could not get ID for kernel control.2 logout" message.

Here are my logs from using the .pkg installer. I had to boot -s and desktop would freeze soon after I took the logs.

Hello, i installed the latest svn from iwidarwin and what program do i use to launch network selector on iatkos 10.5.2 install? like what app i tried terminal and it says illegal operation?

Here's my System.log Installed new build 738 DMG file, hard locked when running Network Selector Scan. Rebooted then hard lock as soon as desktop appeared. As far as I can tell, iwi3945 does not auto load with -s boot.

Hi,

 

Sorry to spam the thread with maybe unusefull informations, but... The latest Lunix kernel release (2.6.24) features a port of the linux iwi3945 driver from the old Linux wifi stack to the new mac80211-based one.

 

I think I remember the OS X driver model was closer from a mac80211 model than anything else, so it may help to look at the Linux code again... Plus some code may have been cleaned. Anyone ?

Hi all, and thanks for the hard work done for helping the community.

 

I just join the osx86 community, just install the Kalyway 10.5.2, everything works great, except network and WiFi card. In fact, i have, like all the others, the Intel 3945 ABG ...

 

So i want to help debugging it by posting logs.

 

I just install the iwi3945v738.dmg, my laptop has rebooted normally.

 

I then go to Application to run the newtorkSelector app, but i got this error: "Could not get ID for kernel control. 2"

 

Any solution Jalavoui ? How can i do for logging the results in my Laptop ?

 

Thanks for all !

[jalavoui]

this was inspired by the good code from iwi2200 - i also change it for iwi2200 in svn

 

iwi3945 rel 741

iwi2200 loading way

ready for testing

 

i'll come back later to read logs and answer yor questions

[salimbo]

Hi Jalavoui,

 

I update my lapotop to the rel 741, and I obtain the following error when I run the networkSelector:

 

Unhandled transform (1) for ioctl group = 78 (N), number = 3, length = 100

Illegal instruction

logout

 

If you need logs, please tell me how i can obtain them on the lapotop.

rev 741:

Driver shows KP after load. Here's the kp picture in single user mode. It shows many lines like these before the kp:

check_firstup

check_firstup

 

Then it gives the KP...

 

When I load it in Mac OS X 10.5.2 itself, I was quick enough to open networkselector, but when I tried to make a scan, the BSOD appeared. (I could turn the card on and off).

I'll see if I can grab the system.log

[jalavoui]

i'll fix all iwidarwin xcode proj - looks like having permissions bugs

and update to the svn tree

 

ok done for all - get it from iwidarwin svn tree

remember:

to build the .dmg in xcode, before you press build

use finder to delete the old .dmg file in the main folder

 

that panic can be because of bad en1 configuration

remove iwi3945.kext

reboot

goto sys prefs -> network

delete en1 interface

reboot

install iwi3945.kext

load it with kextload

goto sys prefs->net

press apply to add the new inteface

try a few reboot to check for kp

 

this code works in mac os x 10.4

can someone try in on os x 10.4? read some post back to learn howto setup xcode

[salimbo]

Ok ! I'll waiting for your changes ...

[rubinho93]

I'm not quick enough to catch the system.log... I'll wait for it too

I tried it, but when I do that, for some reason, the WiFi card is left en2... I don't know why, and then I tried it one more time by deleting every ethernet card in my configuration, but it's still en2.
