Ok,

I tricked my HP into getting the Enet port 2 installed, cost me 2 freezes, but it is now installed, so I am no longer getting the 'go apply' in the logs.

BUT now it KP's on boot regardless. I can't catch any of the information in the logs.

It won't write and it goes through a huge backtrace thing on the screen so the information is useless.

And it goes by too fast for me, so I am at a loss as to how to help on this now...

Oh, running 3945 1034

I am looking at your logs nordix and am encouraged & discouraged. What is the config of your box? What kernel are you using? Because obviously with the KALy that I am using, the driver is not doing any scan, and never comes up with the MAC address of the enet card...

 

I am wondering if different kernels react differently to the driver.

Ok, built & tested 1036, attached is a pic of latest KP.

 

Hope this helps.

 

yep

i need someone to add

IOLog("1\n");

IOLog("2\n"); etc

to the functions of previous kp to find out where the driver get the kp

 

nordix,

if you allways get kp

there's no point in posting log because it as no data related with the kp

 

add iologs to

ieee80211_tx_h_rate_ctrl()

and

rs_get_rate()

this will show the place of the kp

 

wait...

i'll try this code in ieee80211_tx_h_rate_ctrl()

if (unlikely(!tx->sta)

return TXRX_CONTINUE;

 

if this if 1st packect bug it will fix it

i'll upload to svn

 

try it

Jalavoui,

I am happy to hack the code if you can be a little more specific about which file/area you need me to put in the IOLog routines?

I haven't taken time to really look at your code because it has been changing so fast with updates.

Have come back right now, will download last version and try to hack that code.

Will inform as soon as i can get something clear :(

 

Nordix has done a good job with the iologs, so im going to test directly!!

Hey Guys. I just started using OSx86 on my laptop and I have the intel 3945abg card. I'm really really excited to hear about this project, but I have no idea how to get or use these drivers. I heard that they are on svn some where, but I'm not familiar with OSX. If it wouldn't bother you guys too much, could you point me somewhere that will help me figure out how to begin testing this driver along with you guys? If it's posted in this topic somewhere, go ahead and curse at me if you must, but also include the post number or something. Thanks

Thanks. I'm currently downloading Xcode. I have experience with SVN, linux, etc. Just never messed with mac software before, so I didn't know really how things were done there. Thanks for the topic and help.

 

Jalavoui, I just want to say thanks for devoting the time to this project. I installed OSX on my compaq the other day and was really excited with the results. The only thing that wasn't working was the 3945abg card. Hopefully soon it'll be fully functional.

I just tried out 1044 >> result KP

 

that was because of errors at startup

try a few reboots

 

the driver can't work if

May 9 11:55:26 localhost kernel[0]: warning iwl3945: Radio disabled by HW RF Kill switch

you need to turn the card on before testing - press the wireless switch

iwi 3945 r1044

Took a lot of reboots to get rid of timeouts, but finally booted ok, log attached.

When tried to use manual scan, got frozen after that, reboot got an SCAN COMPLETE NOTIFICATION and kp here:

IOPCcard debug: : failed to restore operational channel after scan

_IEEE80211_if_config @ /users/pere/iwi3945/compatibility.cpp: 6182 related to this:

 

{

IM_HERE_NOW();

struct ieee80211_local *local = wdev_priv(dev->ieee80211_ptr);

struct ieee80211_if_conf conf;

static u8 scan_bssid[] = { 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff };

 

if (!local->ops->config_interface || !netif_running(dev))

{

//return 0;
