After examns I got A whole month free :star_smile:

Maybe... If I feel called for it I'll try to work on it a bit.

At the moment don't know where to begin because I dont even know the I/O Toolkit :D

 

But.. Up for a challenge... :(

Anybody willing to join me in 2 weeks or so? ^^

Read about enough programmers here :o

can someone help please?

 

Did you get your dmg from here?

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

 

Did you download it for the correct card?

 

It's as simple as can be... Download the DMG install the package

Reboot

Start Networkselector

If you get this error the driver is not loaded,

so you downloaded the wrong driver or you downloaded an old version.

 

btw I'm also from belgium ^^

 

Well... What a coincidence.. from where? Or wait.. I'll PM you..

Don't think they all want to know ^^

hi have intel 4965g i tried to install driver but no new network devices showed up. I opened network selector it said

Macintosh:~ gregwilliamson$ /Applications/networkSelector ; exit;

Could not get ID for kernel control. 2

logout

 

[Process completed]

what am i doing wrong?

Let's send him a packet with sweets, caffeine, chocolate and a 3945 card. Or let's hope I learn how to do proper c fast enough to get this done... This is very likely not to happen so someone with good C skills... Please!

 

Thank you for the work you have done, not having seen the code I guess you are giving another dev the chance to finish almost finished code off.

I also have a little C knowledge but I haven't programmed for mac yet, so I also don't know where to start :D

install chunan's beta2 pccard package from here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=644897

I have the same problems as cheeseboy.

My Driver (PROSet/Wireless 3945a/b/g OS X 10.5) -> Last change: Yesterday, 10. Juni 2008, 20:36:08

 

And i don't get any changes ...

I only get a longer startUp ...

And a NetworkCard 2 and 3 ...

 

And I can't search for networks ...

no reason to close the thread like jav. said... we should still use it to communicate

 

 

I agree. I think it would be better to leave the thread open so that other potential devs have somewhere to post code updates during the time in which the project would otherwise be stalled. When Jalavoui gets the hardware for himself he could always have the mods close this thread so that he can start a fresh one if he wanted.

 

I didn't have much free time at all last week, and couldn't keep up with the pace of the code changes because of it, but I'll have much more for the next few weeks. Tomorrow I will work on the 3945 drivers, and post code changesif I make any progress.

same here, i'm also trying to make progress. At least we know what the status of the driver is, it's a matter of time now.

if/when i make any progress on the 4965 driver i will drop a message here.

eenMadcat:

 

I don't have any programing experience and limited time, but I have a 4965 card. I can test following J's instructions and follow any directions you need. Again, I have limited time, so I can't promise anything.

I've the same attitude.

You can count on me!

 

You can also write me in an IM-channel if you think it's faster (only in Windows :D )

 

If you search me in Skype I've the NicName: SimonSimCity

But pleace only if my status is "@home"

Well i have a card (4965), so no need for testing until i got it sorta working at my own laptop.

If i make any progress i'll post it here, the current status is a crashing driver when it's authorizing to the accesspoint.

 

If someone does have programing experience and willing to help, leave a PM.

Or if someone has knowledge of the wifi protocol, i know a few colleagues who might know a bit more about it then i do (read: zero knowledge):(

 

i did a rollback to a few versions earlier, and i'm figuring out how i can associate to an accesspoint without crashing the driver :blink:

It might take some time, but if i have a few hours to spare i'll work at it.

But tonight the Netherlands will play agains France in the European soccer championship. (read: drinking beer and no computers involved) :)

iwi3945/4965 driver status

 

- the driver scans and find networks using networkselector.app

- repeating the scan can show more networks

- associate to unsecure networks doesn't work

- the driver can get errors at startup (timeouts, fw errors, etc) that prevent it from working. the solution is a few reboots

 

at this point there's no reason to write more code. i'll finish the driver when i have the hardware

if this is not possible i hope someone else finish this project

 

thanks for keep iwidarwin running

 

i'd like to ask a moderator to close this thread

i'll open a new one once i have a solution for making the drivers work

 

Any chance that you could comment your code so we can take a look? That would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Driver for 3945 and 4965 doesn't work yet.

You can not connect to any network. Need too more development...

Before we find someone to help jalavoui with writing code or hi will buy laptop with 3945 or 4965 card, you can use external wi-fi devices like my USB wifi based on ZyDAS 1211B chipset.

I also have Intel 3945abg, but under System Profiler > Network > and AirPort Card, it says "No information found".

 

What's that mean? I thought you guys were at least having it detected! I have Kalyway 10.5.2, no kexts/drivers installed yet but audio, video, touchpad and everything else is working except for internet (wireless and ethernet).

the card isn't detected as an airport card ... it is detected as an ethernet card

Hello,

 

I recently get on hackintoshing... and managed to have the 10.5.2 working... now i'm trying to have 4965agn working... and landed here...

 

I got the driver from http://code.google.com/p/iwidarwin/ installed them, have them working by replacing

 

/System/Library/Extensions/IO80xxxFamilly.kext by /System/Library/Extensions/IO80xxxFamilly.kext.orig (Kalyway install)

 

Now networkselector works and even see the Network around... but it does not seem it is going much further...

 

I have installed XCode 3.0 and got the SVN source code installed... if I can be helpfull... let me know..

(i have programming skills, but nothing about kernel / drivers)

 

By the way, I have a "newbee" question... is the Mac OS version so different than the Linux version that can be found here :

http://linuxwireless.org/

 

 

Why is it so difficult to adapt from the Linux version ?

 

Regards,

 

Mathieu

My 3945BG card was detected as en1 using the latest SVN driver, but is not able to find any access points.

 

networkSelector doesn't do anything. Selecting any option just re-types the menu with no change.

 

attached are the dmesg, system, and ioreg logs.

 

I am willing to help if anybody can give me some directions.

dmesg.txt

system.txt

ioreg.txt
