Hello.
I have installed FreeBSD 5.4 on a ASUS S5200N. Runs very nice!
However I still need to install Wifi. I saw that Intel(R) PRO/Wireless
2200BG is not supported by wlan FreeBSD driver (reading through the man
pages). Then I found that I could use the NDIS driver added on FreeBSD
5.3 to achieve Wireless Networking.
So, I copied the Windows driver to /sys/modules/if_ndis.
Then I run the command:
ndiscvt -i w29n51.INF -s w29n51.sys -o ndis_driver_data.h
After that:
make
make install
Everything goes fine, but when I do:
kldload ndis.ko
kldload if_ndis.ko
I get this:
no match for MmMapIoSpace
no match for MmUnmapIoSpace
no match for WmiTraceMessage
no match for IoWMIRegistrationControl
no match for WmiQueryTraceInformation

Uptime: 2m13s
Cannot dump. No dump device defined.
What does this mean (I know what means page fault)? Does this mean that
there is a bug in the NDIS driver? Or is the page fault a problem in the
Windows driver?
And, what about all those no match for *? The example I found on the
internet used NDIS API version: 5.0. Does the NDIS driver for FreeBSD
support the 5.1 API? I tried to find more reading man pages but without
success...
Am I just plain stupid wrong with something?
By the way, FreeBSD runs a lot faster that Windows XP on my laptop, even
with KDE. ;-)
I will appreciate any hints you can provide...
Best regards,
Braulio Solano
