Re: Bug in the wireless wpi driver ?
Ah, it was midnight when I wrote this. I truly meant ls instead of cat, sorry. I just wanted to show that that firmware package is installed correctly, ignore that part if you want. And I don't understand what you mean with the radio thing.

Neither cat nor ls will show pkg was installed; only that you downloaded it. Try: $ pkg_info | grep wpi wpi-firmware-2.14.4 Firmware binary image for wpi driver The radio thing means check your laptop for a physical switch or Fn-key sequence that will turn your radio (wpi device) on/off. On some laptops there is a physical switch that will turn off/on both wireless network and bluetooth at the same time. Frank
Bug in the wireless wpi driver ?
I did a fresh install of OpenBSD-CURRENT on my new laptop, an Acer Aspire 5610 that comes with an Intel 3945 wireless adapter. But it seems I can't use the adapter with OpenBSD.Following the wpi manpage, I installed the wpi-firmware-2.14.1.5.tgz file with pkg_add, and it seemed to install fine. # cat /var/db/pkg wpi-firmware-2.14.1.5.tgz # ifconfig lo0: flags=8049UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST mtu 33208 groups: lo inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4 wpi0: flags=8802BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 lladdr 00:18:de:a0:20:ad groups: wlan media: IEEE802.11 autoselect status: no network ieee80211: nwid 100dBm bce0: flags=8802BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 lladdr 00:16:d4:66:ad:28 media: Ethernet autoselect (none) status: no carrier enc0: flags=0 mtu 1536 # ifconfig wpi0 down # ifconfig wpi0 nwid NAME up wpi0: timeout waiting for thermal sensors calibration wpi0: fatal firmware error If I just do ifconfig wpi0 nwid NAME without first doing a ifconfig wpi0 down, ifconfig shows me 'ieee80211: nwid 100dBm', so I guess it sets the ESSID just fine. But I can't launch dhclient. I get the same errors: # dhclient wpi0 wpi0: timeout waiting for thermal sensors calibration wpi0: fatal firmware error wpi0: not found exiting I am typing this post from Linux, where the card works flawlessly with the ipw3945 driver.
