Description:   Opened: 2006-12-04 04:27 0000
When I tried compiling the ipw3945 driver against linux-headers-2.6.19 I got
the following error:

As Jakub points out, the same patch is required for ipw3945-1.1.0 as well. I
have tried this and it works (I just used the existing 1.0.5 patch).

Grumble... Plz. either unmask the fixed version or backport the fix; getting
tired of the dupes. (Plus just 1.1.3-r2 will work correctly w/ WE21 AFAICT).

I did find this bug before, but didn't believe that it was the same problem.

AFAICT this bug is a problem with compiling the driver. Mine related to this
error:

ipw3945: Error sending SCAN_ABORT_CMD: time out after 500ms
...

It's not obvious (to me) if this is the same problem at all.

Considering that ipw3945 1.0.5 won't even compile against 2.6.19, I don't see
why do we need a special bug for it. That version is dead.

Well ipw3945 1.0.5 from portage compiles against kernel 2.6.19 for me. I just
get this error.

Also, isn't the point of the stable portage tree that the stuff works? Why are
incompatible versions of things in there? IMO upgrading *within* the stable
tree shouldn't really break things.

------- Comment #16 From Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2007-02-01 17:43:24 0000 -------
This thing shouldn't have been marked stable at all, first of all. Other than
that, I fail to see how's this ranting useful here.

------- Comment #17 From Pacho Ramos 2007-02-04 14:08:53 0000 -------
Have you tried with ipw3945-1.2.0 version?

I couldn't test it with 2.6.19 due suspend2 doesn't work for me with this
kernel, but I am using ipw3945-1.2.0 on 2.6.18 without problems

Good luck

------- Comment #18 From Luca Botti 2007-02-04 19:13:05 0000 -------
I think we should state clearly that to emerge correctly the 1.2.0 version,
there are multiple steps involved:

1) Unmerge 2.6.19 gentoo sources
2) Unmerge ieee80211 ebuild
3) re-emerge gentoo-source
4) configure in-kernel 80211 support
5) emerge the ipw package

This is caused by ieee80211 modifying the /usr/src/linux directory to
accomodate patches; subsequent tries to emerge ipw3945 fail; also, you should
use in-kernel 80211 support.

------- Comment #19 From Radek Podgorny 2007-02-04 21:13:34 0000 -------
Agreed! I also had to do the steps above to emerge ipw3945 (on vanilla-sources)
and didn't know it's necessary...

Ah, thank you. I'll give that a try today.

------- Comment #21 From Peter Lewis 2007-02-05 13:32:10 0000 -------
> I'll give that a try today.

Hmmm... okay, not quite.

I followed the instructions above, and now I get the following.

ipw3945d starts with no problems.

net.eth2 gives me the following on the console:

 * Starting eth2
 *   Configuring wireless network for eth2
eth2      no wireless extensions.

 *   eth2 does not support scanning
 *   You either need to set a preferred_aps list in /etc/conf.d/wireless
 *      preferred_aps=( "ESSID1" "ESSID2" )
 *      and set associate_order_eth2="forcepreferred"
 *      or set associate_order_eth2="forcepreferredonly"
 *   or hardcode the ESSID to "any" and let the driver find an Access Point
 *      essid_eth2="any"
 *   or configure defaulting to Ad-Hoc when Managed fails
 *      adhoc_essid_eth2="WLAN"
 *   or hardcode the ESSID against the interface (not recommended)
 *      essid_eth2="ESSID"
 *   Failed to configure wireless for eth2  

dmesg says:

ieee80211_crypt_wep: disagrees about version of symbol
ieee80211_register_crypto_ops
ieee80211_crypt_wep: Unknown symbol ieee80211_register_crypto_ops
ieee80211_crypt_wep: disagrees about version of symbol
ieee80211_unregister_crypto_ops
ieee80211_crypt_wep: Unknown symbol ieee80211_unregister_crypto_ops
eth2: could not initialize WEP: load module ieee80211_crypt_wep
ipw3945: Error sending SCAN_ABORT_CMD: time out after 500ms.

I tried again, and got the following:

 * Starting eth2
 *   Configuring wireless network for eth2
Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
    SET failed on device eth2 ; Operation not supported.
 *   eth2 does not support setting keys
 *   or the parameter "mac_key_<ESSID>" or "key_<ESSID>" is incorrect
 *   Couldn't associate with any access points on eth2
 *   Failed to configure wireless for eth2

I have replaced the name of my ESSID with <ESSID>.

This time dmesg gives:

ieee80211_crypt_wep: disagrees about version of symbol
ieee80211_register_crypto_ops
ieee80211_crypt_wep: Unknown symbol ieee80211_register_crypto_ops
ieee80211_crypt_wep: disagrees about version of symbol
ieee80211_unregister_crypto_ops
ieee80211_crypt_wep: Unknown symbol ieee80211_unregister_crypto_ops
eth2: could not initialize WEP: load module ieee80211_crypt_wep
ipw3945: Error sending SCAN_ABORT_CMD: time out after 500ms.
ipw3945: Error sending LEDS_CMD: time out after 500ms.
ipw3945: Error sending LEDS_CMD: time out after 500ms.

I have removed the previous version of ieee80211 and am using the in-kernel
version. Also, I have re-emerged ipw3945 (version 1.2.0). I am using the
versions of ipw3945d and ipw3945-ucode from ~x86.

Thanks!

Excellent, thanks. After a cleanout of /lib/modules this did the trick. All
appears to be working so far.

Thanks for the help.

1.2.0 is stable now; closing.
