New description:
A new HAL has been made available by Sam Leffler (0.10.5.6) that supports
AR2425 chips (AR5007* chipsets). This is a full HAL release so it should
work for all platforms - that means x86-64.
The new HAL is currently in a branch, but should hopefully, barring any
other issues, be migrated to trunk soon. Tarballs are available from
<http://snapshots.madwifi.org/special/> and Subversion access is at
<https://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/branches/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6>.
Please use the instructions as in UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo to compile the
code, but substituting the relevant parts for acquiring the source.
Also, it appears that you '''must''' reboot if you have loaded a HAL of a
different version (this makes me deeply sad - it's not Windows).
Please only report issues '''other''' to those in trunk to this ticket.
This does '''not''' mean issues in the compilation or normal use of the
driver. You pretty much '''must''' try the [wiki:Support regular support
channels] first.
Original Description:
The Abit !AirPacer WLP-01 PCI-Express x1 802.11g adapter PCI device-id
001c returns "HAL status 13". I have tried the HAL SVN branch, and HAL
0.9.30.7 from people.freebsd.org/~sam/ath_hal-20070201.tgz still not
supported. I have verified the chipset in the summary by visual inspection
(i.e., I opened the RF shield and looked inside)
Comment (by mentor):
OK, Thanks. I believe we have enough reports that it works in general now.
