Re: Wireless on hp 6710b

Hi Andrey,
from the kldstat I can see five modules are missing.
To be more specific the modules are:
     if_wpi.ko
     wlan_amrr.ko
     wpifw.ko
     wlan_scan_sta.ko
     wlan_scan_ap.ko

my pciconf looks like: 
# pciconf -lv | grep -B2 -A1 3945
none2@pci16:0:0:        class=0x028000 card=0x135c103c
chip=0x42228086 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Intel Corporation'
    device     = '10418086 Intel 3945ABG Wireless LAN
controller'
    class      = network

However, as you can see from the /boot/loader.conf,
the missing modules are declared.

firmware_load="YES"
if_wpi_load="YES"
wlan_load="YES"
wlan_amrr_load="YES"
legal.intel_wpi.license_ack=1 
wpifw_load="YES"
wlan_xauth_load="YES"
wlan_wep_load="YES"
wlan_ccmp_load="YES"
wlan_tkip_load="YES"
wlan_scan_sta_load="YES"
wlan_scan_ap_load="YES"

#Intel HDA Audio
snd_hda_load="YES".

>From the dmesg the only message related to the
wireless is the following:
KLD file wlan_amrr.ko - could not finalize loading

regards
Agostino
