The basic specs for the configuration are: FreeBSD src: RELENG_5 as of 2005/04/30, about 4pm PDT (-0700) Machine: Dell Inspiron 6000 NIC: Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG miniPCI (Dell PCI ID) NDIS drivers: Windows 2000 (NDIS 5.0), driver file is "w29n50.sys" Windows XP (NDIS 5.1), driver file is "w29n51.sys" I could not find non-NT drivers for this NIC. Both drivers produce the following output during boot: ndis0: mem 0xdfcfd000-0xdfcfdfff irq 5 at device 3.0 on pci3 ndis0: Reserved 0x1000 bytes for rid 0x10 type 3 at 0xdfcfd000 ndis0: [MPSAFE] ndis0: NDIS API version: ndis0: NDIS ERROR: c00013a7 (unknown error) ndis0: NDIS NUMERRORS: 2 ndis0: argptr: 0x4e4f4c41 ndis0: argptr: 0x2fb ndis0: NDIS ERROR: c00013a7 (unknown error) ndis0: NDIS NUMERRORS: 2 ndis0: argptr: 0x4e4f4c41 ndis0: argptr: 0x2fb ndis0: NDIS ERROR: c00013a7 (unknown error) ndis0: NDIS NUMERRORS: 2 ndis0: argptr: 0x4e4f4c41 ndis0: argptr: 0x2fb ndis0: NDIS ERROR: c00013a7 (unknown error) ndis0: NDIS NUMERRORS: 2 ndis0: argptr: 0x4e4f4c41 ndis0: argptr: 0x2fb ndis0: NDIS ERROR: c00013a7 (unknown error) ndis0: NDIS NUMERRORS: 2 ndis0: argptr: 0x4e4f4c41 ndis0: argptr: 0x2fb ndis0: NDIS ERROR: c00013a7 (unknown error) ndis0: NDIS NUMERRORS: 2 ndis0: argptr: 0x4e4f4c41 ndis0: argptr: 0x2fb ndis0: NDIS ERROR: c00013a7 (unknown error) ndis0: NDIS NUMERRORS: 2 ndis0: argptr: 0x4e4f4c41 ndis0: argptr: 0x2fb ndis0: NDIS ERROR: c00013a7 (unknown error) ndis0: NDIS NUMERRORS: 2 ndis0: argptr: 0x4e4f4c41 ndis0: argptr: 0x191 ndis0: NDIS ERROR: c000138d (unknown error) ndis0: NDIS NUMERRORS: 0 ndis0: init handler failed device_attach: ndis0 attach returned 6 Subsequent boots appear to produce identical data. The dmesg outputs for each driver and the driver files themselves are available upon request. Is this fixed in -current?
