FreeBSD scroll.ashke.com 9.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #1: Sat Apr 3 EDT 2010 root@scroll.ashke.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SCROLL i386 SCROLL is simply GENERIC without INVARIANTS, INVARIANT_SUPPORT, WITNESS, and WITNESS_SKIPSPIN. In loader.conf I have: if_iwi_load="YES" iwi_bss_load="YES" legal.intel_iwi.license_ack=1 In /etc/rc.conf I have: wlans_iwi0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP wpa" Upon bootup, iwi fails to work with: iwi0: at device 3.0 on pci3 iwi0: [ITHREAD] iwi0: parity error iwi0: timeout waiting for iwi_bss firmware initialization to complete iwi0: could not load boot firmware iwi_bss iwi0: timeout waiting for master According to the iwi man page, "could not load boot firmware" "should not happen" :-) Any thoughts on how to get this working? For what it's worth, I installed FreeBSD on this machine earlier this week, immediately upgraded to -CURRENT (previous installations from the 8-STABLE series on this laptop refused to let any wireless driver connect to the APs at work, so I specifically wanted to see if this had been fixed in -CURRENT), and iwi worked fine for a few days. Then it stopped, though I did not change anything on the system. I updated -CURRENT today to see if doing so would get iwi working again, but it did not. Adam
