The internal MiniPCI WiFi card on wi0 is Lucent-based, and the USR2401 PCCARD on wi1 is Prism2-based. "dstumbler" from the bsd-airtools (0.3) package doesn't work for either card (it does, however, work on our other Toshiba still running 4.8-R to discover our local access point with "dstumbler wi0 -s" using the same two WiFi cards), and the kismet package doesn't find our local access point with the Lucent MiniPCI card on wi0. Pointers on either (1) a known working WiFi AP discovery tool for 5.3-R or (2) how to make dstumbler work on 5.3-R will be appreciated ! -- Gary E.

I can't really give you a list, but a warning. The Sony GC75 does work under 4.X last time I tried it (two months ago), but it does not work under 5.3+. I've still trying to get it to work, but my knowledge of PCMCIA is very limited. With 4.11 being the supposed last release of the 4 tree, I wouldn't recommend getting a GC75 for now.

The modem part should work with the sio driver, although you won't be able to use both the Ethernet and modem together with an OLDCARD kernel (not the default on 5.3 so you're probably running a NEWCARD kernel).

In general, yes - any card that claims to be a serial device should be picked up by sio. On the other hand, getting multiple functions on the same card to work at the same time is often tricky. It's possible that the last round of work I did on the xe driver broke sio probing on these cards... will take a look and fix it if necessary.

It definitely works for me, using either a builtin mini-PCI (intel card using ipw) or PCCARD (lucent or US-robotics cards using wi). Further, I hardly ever need to do that manually since dhclient usually just DTRT for me (see the archives of this list for the terms: "media ssid dhclient.conf" once you get to this point). I've had it work on campus, at home, various coffeeshops, and at airports, including one where the DHCP servers gave you bad IP and DNS information and you had to manually configure things just to be able to see the auto-redirected web login page. But in all cases it found the access point alright, sometimes even picking up and preferring one of my neighbors', who seems to have installed a super-duper megawatt fry-a-lot antenna for his. -- Dan Pelleg From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Dec 29 16:59:31 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B174E16A4CE for ; Wed, 29 Dec 2004 16:59:31 +0000 (GMT) Received: from wproxy.gmail.com (wproxy.gmail.com [64.233.184.205]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1F69943D58 for ; Wed, 29 Dec 2004 16:59:31 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from pep.turro@gmail.com) Received: by wproxy.gmail.com with SMTP id 37so522484wra for ; Wed, 29 Dec 2004 08:59:30 -0800 (PST) DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=beta; d=gmail.com; h=received:message-id:date:from:reply-to:to:subject:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding; b=lCdPJgAA0RM/3yOCpXXLXO7LDDCu7c5O0DH3vaHf1bVVj7E/PGv1MdtnVLTIZoBrZ15Hj7XlUaZROVQujjCYCnqIBTtQN1i2hYYo9DCNeqNccI4PagEzaxaZx5bdxVC2Oa/yoTc0fHgY/1si5tP/2h1wexdI/gQcnYb1Kz/vKJ8= Received: by 10.54.28.19 with SMTP id b19mr31376wrb; Wed, 29 Dec 2004 08:59:30 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.54.25.13 with HTTP; Wed, 29 Dec 2004 08:59:30 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <383dfdac04122908596b9928e3@mail.gmail.com> Date: Wed, 29 Dec 2004 17:59:30 +0100 From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Pep_Turr=F3?= To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Wireless bridge failing with a particular client X-BeenThere: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list Reply-To: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Pep_Turr=F3?= List-Id: Mobile computing with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 29 Dec 2004 16:59:31 -0000 Hi, I have a FreeBSD wireless Access Point configured as per the Handbook. It has been working perfectly for months. But things fail when I try to connect through it with a brand new Nokia 9500 (nice gift!), and I have no clue why. What I can see is a lot of packet loss. DHCP (provided by a router in the network) is not working, most likely because packets get lost (I saw an offer in one of the packet traces, but the nokia did not get the address).

Please lay out your configuration. The network has a Cisco 800 router providing internet access and dhcp. There are two wired desktop clients (Debian GNU/Linux) and a FreeBSD server. The server also has a Netgear (prism2) wireless card providing a wireless bridge (no other access points around), where two laptops (win98se and Linux) connect without problems... Addresses are all 10.10.10.0/24, with the dhcp pool giving addresses from 10.10.10.129 up (wired clients have static ip addresses below that).

Can't say enough about how far things have come since the first time I tried FreeBSD on a laptop. Wow! Anyway, down to my last configuration battle. I'm trying to get a dual monitor setup going with this box using the built in monitor to sit along side an external monitor. I've got this working great on a desktop machine, and I tried it out on this laptop with Windows... just before deleting it entirely off this hard drive. I found a couple of references out on the net covering this subject, but most all of them were using the Linux ATI drivers. Tried working with what came with xorg's drivers, but all I could seem to get was fuzziness on the external monitor. Never got close to having X recognize both displays as a single desktop. Wondering if anyone out there has had any luck with this? If so, could you post your XF86Config? As a side note, anybody having luck with OpenGL on one of these ATI 9600 video cards? I kinda had some of the OpenGL screen savers working until I upgraded to the latest xorg here. Now any OpenGL that launches dumps core.

Take a look at http://www.lemis.com/grog/hardware.html, which is a little out of date. Probably, though, this won't help you much. If you've got as far as you have and it's not looking right, it'll be a more subtle problem. Basically, X -configure should work.

I was omly interested in the modem port, as the lap-top already has builtin ethernet, so that's not a concern. Whilst I have your attention, I take it that USB modems (as long as they're not winmodems) are supported too? I'd rather not have to use an external modem (because I need a plug-pack as well) or the built-in winmodem, so I'm tossing up between a card and USB. -- Dave From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Dec 30 05:40:32 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 67CC216A4D9 for ; Thu, 30 Dec 2004 05:40:32 +0000 (GMT) Received: from smtp812.mail.sc5.yahoo.com (smtp812.mail.sc5.yahoo.com [66.163.170.82]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 1D61E43D1F for ; Thu, 30 Dec 2004 05:40:32 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from krinklyfig@spymac.com) Received: from unknown (HELO smogmonster.com) (jtinnin@pacbell.net@64.173.26.30 with login) by smtp812.mail.sc5.yahoo.com with SMTP; 30 Dec 2004 05:40:32 -0000 From: Joshua Tinnin To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Date: Wed, 29 Dec 2004 21:40:31 -0800 User-Agent: KMail/1.7.2 References: <200412291317.26537.Michael.Collette@testequity.com> In-Reply-To: <200412291317.26537.Michael.Collette@testequity.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200412292140.32065.krinklyfig@spymac.com> cc: Michael Collette Subject: Re: Dual monitor setup X-BeenThere: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Mobile computing with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 30 Dec 2004 05:40:32 -0000 On Wednesday 29 December 2004 01:17 pm, Michael Collette wrote: > Running up a brand new IBM T42 (2373-CXU) laptop here, that FreeBSD > seems to love being on.

ATI cards from 9200 onward are problematic as far as hardware acceleration, as from that point on ATI only released binary drivers (they do support Linux but not FreeBSD), and they don't release their specs. They will generally work for basic 2D pretty well, though certainly not as fast as it would if all the memory were being used. I have an ATI 9600XP that used to work (poorly) with FreeBSD 5.3 and OpenGL, but I had the same experience as you, in that upgrading somehow broke that and now it dumps core. But I don't really use FreeBSD for 3D stuff, otherwise I'd probably buy an nVidia. I bought the card to play Windows games, so I keep Win around on a separate partition if I want to do that. It works fine for my needs as it is; YMMV. - jt From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Dec 30 11:24:39 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 336F216A4CE for ; Thu, 30 Dec 2004 11:24:39 +0000 (GMT) Received: from wproxy.gmail.com (wproxy.gmail.com [64.233.184.192]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C6F7A43D53 for ; Thu, 30 Dec 2004 11:24:38 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from pep.turro@gmail.com) Received: by wproxy.gmail.com with SMTP id 55so64481wri for ; Thu, 30 Dec 2004 03:24:38 -0800 (PST) DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=beta; d=gmail.com; h=received:message-id:date:from:reply-to:to:subject:cc:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:references; b=h6VBPclR+e9j2DfSs+UDmCKh7eiXCeFM1/JPkv2iPlHPa43rxlxsB/+uaSr3iKYyVjE6RNbSIwF0XBL4EFEK8K7XqWTKyT0MHpTRnIkO+Ol/NlZ4EI5EHYc0AzUYsFy6o+YCQieMM154ra1pGClKTxWpNupiK6TPidzjSoiYHYU= Received: by 10.54.28.39 with SMTP id b39mr402562wrb; Thu, 30 Dec 2004 03:24:38 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.54.25.13 with HTTP; Thu, 30 Dec 2004 03:24:38 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <383dfdac04123003244ec297a3@mail.gmail.com> Date: Thu, 30 Dec 2004 12:24:38 +0100 From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Pep_Turr=F3?= To: Thomas Beer In-Reply-To: <5e51d2fd04122909362f0a4b85@mail.gmail.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit References: <383dfdac04122908596b9928e3@mail.gmail.com> <5e51d2fd04122909101a1493f1@mail.gmail.com> <383dfdac0412290929622dcb6a@mail.gmail.com> <5e51d2fd04122909362f0a4b85@mail.gmail.com> cc: mobile@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Wireless bridge failing with a particular client X-BeenThere: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list Reply-To: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Pep_Turr=F3?= List-Id: Mobile computing with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 30 Dec 2004 11:24:39 -0000 On Wed, 29 Dec 2004 18:36:37 +0100, Thomas Beer wrote: > Try to provide a static IP without DHCP to the Nokia and > announce it in the network.

I had static ips on the device already. To announce it in the network I did: arp -s 10.10.10.73 00:0e:ed:bf:28:1 on the server (bridge) and test desktop. But it did not improve things: around 90% packet loss still. As for the long transfer, no success either: tried to download an iso image, but it did not get past the bridge :( What I fail to find is what is different for this device, because it works perfectly with the other cards / OS's I tried.

With properly working ACPI, do I need apmd at > all? 1. Please find and learn to use the key. Lines should not exceed about 72 characters. 2. If you are using the standard kernel in 5.2, pccardd is not used. It is only used with OLDCARD kernels. Is there some reason you need to use OLDCARD? (There are some systems that will not work with NEWCARD due to the way the PCMCIA attaches on them.) 3. If you have ACPI, you can't have APM and vice-versa. You may still have /dev/apm as the APM emulator that works with ACPI creates it, but you won't have apmctl. You should not run apmd as it has no real APM to work with. (You still probably want APM_ENABLE="YES" in rc.conf.) Also, it you use ACPI, you don't need (or want) device apm in your kernel. Back when ACPI was still causing me problems I would build the kernel without APM and then use loader.conf to either load the apm module (apm_load="YES") and disable ACPI (hint.acpi.o.disabled="1") or not. -- R.

I know sometimes it is easier to turn lead into gold than get the latest and greatest to work on a laptop. So I am kind of leaning toward the HP or the Compaq. However (you knew it was coming) I still don't trust Compaq (bad history with them) so this leaves me at the HP. It seems to be a reasonable laptop at a decent price. I am definitely not set on the HP, that's why I'm writing to the mobile group, to get more info... On to the big problem; I can't find any info on any of the laptops with FreeBSD. I checked the usual compatibility web pages, but couldn't find these specific models and don't know what models would be close. I am going today to play with a FreeSBIE CD, but I would feel more comfortable knowing if I was going to hit any big roadblocks. Extra info: The laptop will be wiped (no windows please) and I will be running FreeBSD. I have no problem replacing a miniPCI card if need be, but obviously I can't do that with video (HP and Compaq both have nVidia w/ unknow chipset) which is my biggest concern, or sound (not that important, but it'd be nice). I have complete confidence that this laptop would work eventually, but I would rather sooner than later. Please, if anyone has experience with any of these (or similar models) please let me know. I will be buying soon (hopefully today or tomorrow, within the week definitely) and would love to have more than a FreeSBIE CD to tell me everthing will be alright. :) thanks, -mark From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Dec 31 18:54:22 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 88EED16A4CE for ; Fri, 31 Dec 2004 18:54:22 +0000 (GMT) Received: from www.raught.net (pcp0010251116pcs.lpaxtn01.pa.comcast.net [68.36.104.127]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2875543D31 for ; Fri, 31 Dec 2004 18:54:22 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from mraught@acm.org) Received: from [192.168.0.2] ([10.0.0.52]) by www.raught.net (8.12.9/8.12.9) with ESMTP id iBVIkqgV016059 for ; Fri, 31 Dec 2004 13:46:53 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <41D591F4.20302@acm.org> Date: Fri, 31 Dec 2004 12:52:52 -0500 From: "Mark A-J.

Boot FreeSBIE 1.1 on those laptops and open up OpenOffice and type in it. Also play with the mouse to make sure that it functions OK. If FreeSBIE runs OK on those laptops then FreeBSD should work just fine. I used this method when I went shopping for a laptop about 2 years ago. Only then I used Knoppix to do the test.

One on the top is my neighbor's station, one on the bottom is mine (one I am associated with at the moment). Devices wlan and wlan_wep are compiled into the kernel, if_ndis is loaded. Oh yeah, please notice lowercase 'el'. With uppercase 'el' I will get loads of info on the station I am associated with, so man page disagrees with wicontrol. I am running -current as of couple of weeks ago, but I believe that above worked for me at least since 5.2.1 days (I have been wrong before though ;).
