Hi ,

I corrected the iwi3945 for leopard but there is lot of error ...

 

I will work on but I'm not a good driver writer :/ ( and not a good English writer )

 

There are no new devices shown in the system preferences :( It seems your driver not works...

Yes , I know , I'm searching why the driver can't read the EPROM ...

But as you can see I never debuged a driver ....

 

You said there is no new device in the preferences ? that's strange ... I have got one ...

 

My IONEtworking's kext is 1.6.0

I modified the driver again

 

looks like TNW and symuc will make this work :sorcerer:

are you using the same version of iwl3945 as symuc? you should work on the same version

send me a gmail account so i can add you to iwidarwin.

 

if you need help looking at source code let me know

 

if you have time can you post a build version of last iwi2200 source? i'm trying to make it work in 10.5 but i only have a imac to make the code

 

iwi3945

you can help testing the driver by posting logs

this will allow developers to understand what the driver is doing

the mac address is correct, but no airport card found and no connection...

i've taked also a photo of my system profiler... it's attached down...

i hope that this can help you! and thaks for your hard works!

TNW,

 

iwi3945 was ported from the old iwl3945 version (1.0) taken from intel (they say it's a stable version)

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Des...x*&lang=eng

 

you should try to use other firmware versions to see how they work.

use hex2string with the firmware file to build ipw3945.ucode.h

 

i remember this version as a problem while sending commands (timeouts) - maybe you can fix it

 

symuc is working on a recent version of iwl3945 but i think you will find bugs in both versions.

i've asked him to change the source code and use the same file structure that exist in old iwi3945 because it's easier to make changes in code and keep it up with intel source code.

 

iwi3945

i'll ask again for people to post decent logs for developers

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=71779

if you're testing TNW version delete the airport interface in system preferences

if testing symuc version delete the iwi3945 ethernet interface

 

iwi2200 rel 581

i've added a folder to the svn tree: iwi2200-osx10.5 (same as posted before)

i hope this helps developers build a working version

you need to build it in xcode to test it

Hi

 

As far as the iwi2200 10.5 is concerned I will post some logs as soon as I can download xcode. I checked the apple site and it is 1000mb. I dont have any download ability for a few days :(

Or has someone else already compiled the source that they can post here? That way us noobs can just test it post the logs? I dont really know what Im talking about but I am keen to help.

the last iwi3945 doesn't work for me...

i haved booted with -s, i loaded the kext but when i do /networkSelector and i press 1, it says something, i re-press 1 and it says other, i re-re-press 1 and the system show up many many words and the text scrool so fast that i cannot do a photo...

when i boot normally, first the system doesn't want startup, after, it startup normally, but no internet connection... leopard doesn't recognize airport...

i hope this is useful...

 

PS: sorry for my english! :(

I have the same problem as Joeandmat, when i try to turn the airport on via networkselector i get some kind of error and it just scrolls really fast saying same thing over and over again.

 

I can boot normally without problem though.

 

Keep up the good work!

Sorry for the bad version ...

 

 

We have a "MicroCode SW error" but I don't know why and that create a geant loop like:

 

-SW error

-restart

-SW eror

-reststart ...

 

so I post the last code http://zetasam.ath.cx/iwi3945.zip

 

if you know why tell me or modify the code :P

 

for me it's time to go to bed ;)

[EDIT] CORRECTED

I downloaded the latest build so I could upload the log files from it. Unfortunately I must be missing something. I copied the package over to /system/library/extensions and it told me it was improperly installed. when I rebooted in single user mode and tried to run networkselector it didn't work. Is there some step I'm overlooking in installation of this package? I would like to try and help developers by providing my logs and feedback.
