Re: Updated Driver for 3945ABG Intel 3945ABG Wireless LAN controller

Hi Folks,
I did the port as my searching led me to believe that progress on a
driver had stagnated.
Port 1: was done by Damien himself
(http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-mobile/2006-July/008768.html)
Port 2: was an updated version by Daminen:
http://osdir.com/ml/freebsd-hackers@xxxxxxxxxxx/msg58154.html
which seems to be duplicated here:
http://people.freebsd.org/~flz/local/wpi/
(http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-net@xxxxxxxxxxx/msg20710.html)
With version 2 being minor bug fixes to version 1 to try and get it
working. Since then the driver has come a long way in netbsd with the
FreeBSD version just getting older.

To others working on a wpi driver, please post something indicating what
you've done and even a sample of what your up to so we can one build one
driver that just works. I also did the driver port as everything I found
failed to work on a 64bit kernel, most the time wouldn't even compile.

Gavin Atkinson (CC'ed) is AFAIK also working on wpi(4) for FreeBSD,
according to his announcement on net@:
