https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D193628 Bug ID: 193628 Summary: Marvell 88W8335 wireless NIC not enabled by malo(4) or ndis(4) Product: Ports Tree Version: Latest Hardware: i386 OS: Any Status: Needs Triage Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: listjm@club.fr FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE. NIC: Cameo WLG-1203 (Marvell chip 88W8335). Once the malo(4) firmware module is patched for staging (see bug #193588), = both malo.ko and malofw.ko kernel modules can be installed and loaded without is= sues but the card is not recognized, no dmesg or pciconf output refer to it. I had better luck with ndis(4): it created the module based on the Windows = XP driver and the card was recognized, but failed with: ndis0: <IEEE 802.11g Wireless Cardbus/PCI Adapter> mem 0xeb000000-0xeb00ffff,0xeb010000-0xeb01ffff irq 19 at device 8.0 on pci0 ndis0: NDIS API version: 5.0 ndis0: init handler failed device_attach: ndis0 attach returned 6 At first I thought the problem was the lack of firmware, so I repeated the process adding to the XP driver files the two files (malo8335-h and malo833= 5-m) packed in the malo(4) firmware port: http://weongyo.org/project/malo/malo-firmware-1.4.tar.gz =E2=80=A6 but the result was the same. I=E2=80=99m quite sure this card is ok (just bought it from a serious shop)= but I have no XP computer to test it. The card is recognized in a Windows 7 computer b= ut still does not start. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
