austinsnyc Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 you just need to boot into single user mode using the -s flag to remove the kext you do not need -x -v -v is verbose mode for seeing why something is not loading right and -x is for safe mode it only loads needed kexts to run since your deleting the 3945.kext or what not before system load the -x is not needed again just the -s is needed.

jalavoui Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 Devoid tutorial is on 1st page - thanks disabled skb functions in your logs - check if the driver is working - if you get errors reboot and test again if you don't know howto id a error just match your log agains the linux log. use the search topic to find the linux log some of you are posting very short logs - i need to see the driver working. zip the file if it's to large iwi3945 rel 873 iwi4965 rel 874 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/84072-intel-wireless-2100-2200bg-2915bg-3945abg-4965agn/page/68/#findComment-727270 Share on other sites More sharing options...

pere Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 iwi 3945 rel 873... Since the last versions, i get always the same errors, and i cant make the card boot without them... I have try to raise the iosleep values everywhere to check whether they are timing errors, but they continue appearing. I have attached just the errors, cause my logs are the same as lastests releases. What can i try to hack to make them dissapear?.

adamisnt Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 First of all, thanks to Devoid for the tutorial. I am glad I can start contributing. I ran through the tutorial - after building iwi4965.kext and loading with kexthelper, I get the following error in system.log cannot resolve dependencies for kernel extension /System/Library/Extensions/iwi4965.kext Also, when building networkselector, it fails with 35 errors. Errors such as 'iostream: No such file or directory', 'stdlib.h: No such file or directory', etc. If somebody could help me clear these errors up, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Ruud Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 oke if your iwi4965.kext is in your extensions folder do a: kextload -t /System/Library/Extensions/iwi4965.kext.. this will tell you what kext isnt correct for iwi4965. At my install it was the IO802......kext. I have replaced it with the origional and that worked. If you used the kalyway 10.5.2 disc, you installed a modified version with atheros support and this one doesnt work with iwi driver. Devoid, maybe you can add this to your tutorial for when other people run into this problem Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/84072-intel-wireless-2100-2200bg-2915bg-3945abg-4965agn/page/68/#findComment-727434 Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamisnt Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Okay - looks like replacing IO80211Family.kext fudged up something. It re-detected my ethernet port, and now I keep getting this in system.log en1 not running check_firstup goto system preferences --> networks and press apply if you keep seeing this ieee80211_sta_work @ /Users/Adam/Desktop/root/compatibility.cpp:7672 This repeats every second or two. There was no option to press apply in Networks. Is there a way to reset the interface configuration, or another way to take care of this problem?

Gabik123 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Hey J, thanks for all the hard work. Devoid, you are my savior. I can now participate in this project! to that effect, here is my log for iwi4965 rev 874. Kext loaded no problem, computer detected new ethernet. I couldn't restart successfully though, tried 3 times, KP first time on normal boot, with -v it just gave me the blue login screen but never logged in. On -v, right before blue screen, I could see a bunch of iwi4965 flashing on the screen, but too fast to read.

jalavoui Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 more scan hacking if you get errors - reboot a few times iwi3945 rel 875 iwi4965 rel 876 mlazy, pere the iosleep hack in this release work for your cards? i'm not shure but i think if you remove it and reboot a few times you can make the driver work even that it gets inital errors at startup devoid, i think you should add this files (need to be updated with detailed linux log and use same version as iwi) to your howto this will explain howto check logs and compare against linux to see if iwi is loading ok or if a reboot or power on/off is needed i change the svn xcodeproj to default use svn system this will allow users to check what's changed in code and try some hacks/patches Archive.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/84072-intel-wireless-2100-2200bg-2915bg-3945abg-4965agn/page/68/#findComment-727731 Share on other sites More sharing options...
