Asus eeepc, Freebsd-head, problem with ath/wifi driver

2008-11-20 Thread Ole Vole
Hello maillist!

I trying setup FreeBSD according Wiki notes http://wiki.freebsd.org/AsusEee 
and get system without ath Wi-Fi devices (Fn+f2/Bios settings for Wifi: 
Enabled)

buildin/install kernel/world from 20081120 snapshot FreeBSD-CURRENT with/or 
patching from madwifi.org-project  ( http://snapshots.madwifi-
project.org/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r3875-20081105.tar.gz ) 
(old link http://snapshots.madwifi-project.org/special/madwifi-ng-
r2756+ar5007.tar.gz is wrong) with extracting hal/ to 
/usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/ath/ and recompile the kernel  


Also, trying to test http://people.freebsd.org/~sam/ath_hal-20081028.tgz

As result from attemps is string in dmesg:
ath_hal: 0.10.5.6 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, AR5416, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413, 
RF5413, RF2133, RF2425, RF2417)

but ifconfig show only LAN ale0 Ethernet interface. 

On the list pciconf i see "Ralink Technology, Corp" devices but iy without 
drivers.

What is wrong here? Thanks!

You have a different, more expensive model. Atheros is in HA (the one I
have), you have the 802n ralink chipset. I got my atheros working by
pulling current ath driver from the svn. Do the same for ralink.

svn checkout svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/dev/ral

put the directory in /usr/src/sys/dev/ral (replace the original). And
rebuild your curnel.

I have issues with sound - it does not support software jack detection,
so using headphones means the speakers are still on :(.

Thats not an Atheros card and the Ralink chipset isnt supported yet. I
have used ndis with this model and it works fine.

2008-11-20 Thread Octavian Ionescu

hi,

i have had the same problem and asked a while ago (about 1 week ago) 
about the driver for wireless card for asus eee 1000h and the answer i 
had received from mr Sam Leffer was:


0x781 is an RT2790; not supported by any driver in the tree. 

this is first time i am hearing about another driver wich is working 
with this card and i shall give it a try to see what happens.


Best regards,
Octavian
