However i took the rist to configure iwi, i have done # cd /usr/ports/net/iwi-firmware/ # make install clean and its done fine, then #kldload -v if_iwi and it load the driver fine, and i could see it in kldstat but when i do # dmesg | grep iwi nothin in there! I tried the same steps with ipw and no results from dmesg also.. ALso iwicontrol -i iwi0 -d /usr/local/libdata/if_iwi Or ipwcontrol -i ipw0 -f /usr/local/share/ipw-firmware/ipw.fw it returns the result to no such file. So basically, first step of make install clean of the port and kldload went fine, no third step, im stuck in here.. ifconfig -a still wont show any device.. even if i have iwi or even ipw enable in rc.conf Anyone can tell me what to do in my third step? thank you Marwan _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
