WiFi driver Intel 3945abg (io-pkt) "timeout waiting for thermal sensors calibration"  
Hi all

Wifi driver question (init problem)

Notebook HP nc6320  + QNX v6.3.2
WiFI chipset:
vid=0x8086   did=0x4222  (Intel PRO/wireless 3945abg)

io-pkt-v4-hc  -dwpi  firmware=/path/wpi-3945abg
ifconfig -a 
wpi0: flags=8803<up,broadcast,simplex,multicast>
...
status: no network

and sloginfo show next message:

wpi0: timeout waiting for thermal sensors calibration

and what to do?

RE: WiFi driver Intel 3945abg (io-pkt) "timeout waiting for thermal sensors calibration"  
Hi:
	We're into a problematic area with the WiFi drivers at this
point.  We don't have docs or an information on the interaction with the
driver and the firmware, so all that I can do is make some suggestions
at this point (this is why these drivers are "ported" but not fully
"supported").

The good thing is that this is the same device that I've got in my Dell
Laptop and it works without any problems for me.  What version of
firmware are you using?  I would assume that sloginfo isn't reporting
any firmware problems?

 The check for the thermal sensors is in wpi_init in if_wpi.c (under
trunk/sys/dev/pci).

This looks to be the first thing done after the firmware is loaded.  The
wait is 1000* 10us = 10 milliseconds.  You could try increasing the
retry count to something larger and see if that fixes things for you.


	Robert.

Many thanks Robert

I'm using firmware from wpi-firmware-2.14.4.gz

-> io-pkt-v4-hc -dwpi firmware=/path/wpi-3945abg
sloginfo show next messages:

May be don't using "thermal calibration" at all (in wifi drivers)?

RE: RE: WiFi driver Intel 3945abg (io-pkt) "timeout waiting for thermal sensors calibration"  
Looks like the firmware loaded OK and then something else happened... 
Like I said, that's the same device that I've used with my laptop
without problem. Are there any buttons or switches on the laptop that
are used to enable / disable the device that might affect it?

You can try removing that error out condition on timeout, but in all
likelihood, you'll probably just hit something else.  It's worth trying
though.

It might be worthwhile posting a pci -vv output for us to look at to see
if there's anything going on with the PCI bus as well.


	Robert.

You are right. This error depends on press buttom "enable/disable wifi" on notebook.

Hi,

Trying to install Wireless Network Card Intel 3945abg on Qnx 6.3.2

vid=0x8086   did=0x4222 

but when i try command :

io-net -dtigon3 vid=0x8086,did=0x4222,pci=0 -ptcpip 

i have no results

Can someone tell me how i can install this wireless card ?


Thanks :)

RE: RE: RE: WiFi driver Intel 3945abg (io-pkt) "timeout waiting for thermal sensors calibration"  
That would be because the tigon3 is for the Broadcom 57xx wired Ethernet
cards. 

This card is not supported under io-net.

The io-pkt wpi driver should work though...

Check out the networking project on the foundry and see
trunk/sys/dev/wpi/README in the source repository.

Yes but i tried with any things ; tigon3, prism, ... nothing work.

I dont see this card on the "qnx hardaware database" but in this post, i see that someone have good results. So i seek 
after the command for this same result.

As per my last post you'll need to run io-pkt (either
a milestone build or one you've built yourself) and
run the wpi driver:

# io-pkt -d wpi firmware=/fullpath/to/firmware

Where the firmware is explained in trunk/sys/dev/wpi/README
