iwi not loaded by OS
I have an AMD64 laptop with an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG wireless card. It works under linux but I cannot get it to work under OpenBSD (using -current).
Config sees the device driver but dmesg.boot shows it cannot load the driver (see below). So there are is no iwi0 device. What do I need to do to have OpenBSD see the device. As an asside: I could not get iwi-firmware-3.0.tgz to load as aq package (it complained that it only will load on 1386. So I untarred it into /etc/firmware and rebooted.. grep iwi dmesg.boot iwi0 at pci0 dev 5 function 0 "Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG" rev 0x05: could not map memory space root@genetraveller run 503>>config -e /bsd OpenBSD 4.3-current (GENERIC) #1448: Sat May 31 12:18:34 MDT 2008 deraadt@amd64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC warning: no output file specified Enter 'help' for information ukc> find iwi 131 iwi* at pci* dev -1 function -1 flags 0x0 ukc> quit |

There are some config flags for pcibios(4) that can fix possible PCI configuration problems... another option is to disable pcibios and enable acpi for acpiprt(4) support.
Note: A message was sent into @tech that may fix some systems, http://marc.info/?t=121235482300003&r=1&w=2 If this doesn't work, try using GENERIC.MP, even on non-MP systems the introduction of ioapic(4) may be beneficial. Good luck & Take care. |
