I have tried Intel pro iwi3945 on T60(leopard) failed(iAs../Jas)

I tried these two leopard version both

the file I downloaded is release at 4/17(http://

iwidarwin.googlecode.com/files/iwi3945r748.dmg)

scratch my previous post, after 5 mins after rebooting again got a kp. Unfortunetly logs did not work so I guess I'm no help.

I feel really stupid asking this but I have to...

 

Whats the reason I get this when I try and load a kext...

 

kextload: extension /System/Library/Extensions/iwi3945.kext is not authentic (check ownership and permissions ; run with -t for details)

 

I loaded the 755 kext fine doing the same thing I always do...

 

chown -R root:wheel iwi3945.kext

chmod -R a+rx,u+w iwi3945.kext

kextload iwi3945.kext

 

Either there is something wrong or I'm missing something thats really small and obvious. Please help. lol

Hey, I run these:

 

sudo chown -R root:wheel iwi3945.kext

sudo chmod -R 755 iwi3945.kext

sudo kextload -t iwi3945.kext

 

 

works every time.

He's my logs ... it loaded no problems... I ran network selector and turned the card on and told it to scan about 1 min later it kp'd.

about development

if you understand a bit how this code work please help

i take to much time posting 10 release to get 1 conclusion

if you need help discussing code/functions i'm here to help

 

iwi3945 rel 760

you can help by trying making this work

check for this functions:

//iwl_scan((struct iwl3945_priv*)get_my_priv());

ieee80211_sta_start_scan(dev, NULL, 0);

in this release they're called in networkselector code - try other ways to make this work

the driver need to call (search) SCAN_SEND_PROBE to associate to a network

use networkselector to start a scan -> check if you get scan results

[mlazy]

More logs from 758:

 

Cold Boot with everyhing set to load=hard freeze (with logs!)

 

758_cold_boot.txt

 

reboot with -x then manual load= runs fine, get a bunch of interesting errors.

 

758_xbootmanualload.txt

He's my logs ... it loaded no problems... I ran network selector and turned the card on and told it to scan about 1 min later it kp'd.

 

this is a good example on how to NOT do things

maybe you get a kp when the driver was trying to send a probe request

but i'm not there to see

you need to try to check where the panic fires up

either by booting with -x, -s

and posting a picture or quoting log lines so i can try to fix it

 

about offering $,cards,etc

as you all know i don't have the hardware to use any of the iwi cards

i'd like to get a laptop with a 3945/4965 card

that is very far from happen - so i just keep going write code until i make this driver work

don't worry i'm here to stay

[jalavoui]

just remebered:

can you try to press the wireless switch to turn the card on/off

check what happens in system.log

[mlazy]

Jalavoui,

 

I was down during your last msg. But, check thi out!!!

jalavoui... could you briefly describe what's the process for starting - scanning - grabbing the network names and associating?

[mlazy]

Jalavoui,

 

Here are the physical switch on/off results while booted with -x:

[jalavoui]

mlazy,

this is because i add a iosleep to ieee80211_open()

can you check this functions and try a few combinations of iosleep

looks like it can make the driver more/less stable

also try to enable the scan at the end of ieee80211_open() - maybe this is better tham using networkselector to scan (or not)

if you find a way to make the driver more stable doing this you'll save me posting 10 releases for trying to figure out

 

i'll come back later to check for results

 

anyone can try this - it's quite easy to test and will save me lot's of time

[mlazy]

Jalavoui,

 

It seems pretty stable at the moment, and even completes a scan for me. (with errors of course)

 

760_manual_load.txt

 

Others, please test!

[Doctadre]

Alright boys, de doc is in, er out, just got off my shift. Going to start combing this thread, for how to's on helpin yall out with the latest version. At 7pm I got something I need to do, but I'll be back at 9pm

[pere]

Booted with -x, logged in as root, manual load, then turn off the card with the external button, freeze, could get log.

 

Booted again, load again, but this time the card seemed to work worst, manually unload, freeze, no logs.

 

The first time, the card just scanned one ap (besides me there is alot).

 

Edit: R.760

root_manual_load.rtf

[jalavoui]

iwi3945 rel 672

add ieee80211_init_scan() - look for this is code to check

maybe it's a goodd idea to call this function on the networkselector call

[Gahca]

I know its late but heres my log for 760.

760log.rtf

[Doctadre]

Alright, I downloaded the 760 kext and network selector. Still trying to figger out what to do with network selector. I did boot in -x, didnt get any kp's or a freeze, but I got into a loop sequence. Any pointers? Just trying to feel my way around this deal. Good logs?

 

I'll be on the laptop studyin the cases for tomorrow, on the constant refresh

Hello mlazy, what do I do with that network selector? Going to try 762 now
