The new_iwi has not been backported to -stable yet. I tried to use just
the iwi-firmware-kmod port, disabling dhcp on that interface and
configuring manually, loading modules in order: firmware, iwi_bss and
if_iwi.
Still, I can not get it working, output from dmesg:
iwi0: <Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG> mem 0xb0107000-0xb0107fff irq 10
at device 10.0 on pci6
iwi0: Ethernet address: 00:16:6f:93:c9:75
This appears fine after I load if_iwi no further errors. But then
configuring with
# ifconfig iwi0 10.35.4.64/24 ssid MYAP mode 11g channel 6
The following error appears:
Interrupt storm detected on "irq5:"; throttling interrupt source
iwi0: timeout waiting for iwi_bss firmware initialization to complete
iwi0: could not load boot firmware iwi_bss
firmware_get: failed to load firmware image iwi_bss
iwi0: could not load firmware
I do get the interface configured but with "no carrier". I unload and
reload if_iwi and configure again:
iwi0: detached
iwi0: <Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG> mem 0xb0107000-0xb0107fff irq 10
at device 10.0 on pci6
iwi0: Ethernet address: 00:16:6f:93:c9:75
firmware_get: failed to load firmware image iwi_bss
iwi0: could not load firmware
Note the interupt storm when the module is first loaded, but not the
second time.
Why on irq 5 when the iwi0 is on irq 10? Looking at my devices, lspci -v
output below, there is an USB controler on irq 5 _and_ 10. Could some
with the iwi problems some how propagate?
As seen below the bus is ICH6 based.
Any hints? Thanks, Erik
