The console showed this: KLD if_malo.ko: depends on malofw_fw - not available. So I went back into where the openbsd firmware was and kldloaded malofw.ko which succeeded. Then I tried with the (now modified) if_malo.ko and got this from the console: malo0: <Marvell Libertas 88W8335 802.11g Wireless Adapter> mem 0xfddd0000-0xfddd ffff,0xfdde0000-0xfddeffff irq 20 at device 6.0 on pci2 malo0: [FILTER] malo0: unable to allocate memory for cmd buffer, error 12 malo0: unable to attach HAL device_attach: malo0 attach returned 5 However, the modifications suggested by Weongyo Jeong have made a difference in the right direction because the error no longer causes a panic. Now, kldstat gives: [john@potato ~]$ kldstat Id Refs Address Size Name 1 22 0xffffffff80100000 7c26c0 kernel 2 1 0xffffffff80a22000 95a pflog.ko 3 1 0xffffffff80a23000 2ae44 pf.ko 4 2 0xffffffff80a4e000 189ac linux.ko 5 1 0xffffffff80a67000 aa7a fuse.ko 6 1 0xffffffff80a72000 359b linprocfs.ko 7 2 0xffffffff80a76000 1e1ce malofw.ko 8 1 0xffffffff80a95000 63c4 if_malo.ko 9 1 0xffffffff80a9c000 551b5 radeon.ko 10 1 0xffffffff80af2000 113d0 drm.ko but I can't see it in ifconfig -a. I haven't got a source problem - of that I'm quite sure. World was made only a few days ago, cvsup runs every night, the sources got are those I'd expect from following RELENG_7. There is a file in the source tree that has this information but right now I'm at a loss as to what it's called. -- John
