Wlan Trouble on Wxtensa 5635

M

momus

Ollah,

i wanted to try out FreeBSD 8.0 on my new Extensa 5635, but somehow i cant get the wlan module to work.

as descript here http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2010-July/057552.html
i downloaded the newest iwn and iwnfw , compiled and installed it.

Somehow the iwn driver doest do a thing. No wlan device (wlan0) is detected during boot process ...

When i load the iwn modul by hand, i get something like

Code: 
alc0: <Atheros AR8131 PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci9
alc0: 0x4000 bytes of rid 0x10 res 3 failed (0, 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF)
alc0: cannot allocate memory resources.
device_attach: alc0 attach returned 6

does anyone know what this means? or how to get my wlan to work?

thx!
 
What wireless chipset does it actually have?

# pciconf -lv | grep -B3 network

Is it enabled in the BIOS?
 
I cant dissable anything in bios, so i guess wlan is enabled ...

for pciconf

...which looks like it needs iwn1000fw.ko loaded first.

Your link just goes to the 8.2-rc2 announcement, so it's hard to tell what you did. Please show your uname -a and /boot/loader.conf.
