ourfor commented 6 years ago

Is this repo made to deal with the common problem that the intel wireless chip can't be driver on OSX?I major in Software Engineering in China and I have study C programming language and Algorithm -design . If you don't care,may I join in it?

rpeshkov commented 6 years ago

Hi @ourfor,

Yep, I plan to continue work on that cards (MVM opmode) once I get up and running my card (DVM opmode) and buy or find somewhere newer wireless card.

Is this repo made to deal with the common problem that the intel wireless chip can't be driver on OSX?

Yes, it's about that. Current state in this project is that I get my device up and running and it catching beacon frames from the networks outside. However, there's no integration with 80211 stack of MacOS. This research I'm doing in another project Black80211.

If you don't care,may I join in it?

Sure, no problem! If you need some guidance - feel free to drop me a message on email.

ourfor commented 6 years ago

Or can you make a release?

ourfor commented 6 years ago

Should i just do sudo kextunload intelwifi.kext?

ourfor commented 6 years ago

And are you using Facebook? I want to make a friend with you.

rpeshkov commented 6 years ago

Ah, default make rule there is used to reload the kext. There are no build routines in makefile. So you need to open it with XCode and build the project from there.

I currently don't see too much sense from making release. This driver is not finished yet and it won't do anything useful at all for MVM cards.

Sorry, no, I'm not using Facebook.

ourfor commented 6 years ago

I build it in Xcode but it notice me static error

rpeshkov commented 6 years ago

@ourfor did you switch the project framework to 10.13? I was always using 10.12 SDK for building the project.

rpeshkov commented 6 years ago

@ourfor I've just finished restoring my hack from scratch and tried to clone the repo and rebuild it. It works fine with MacOS 10.12 SDK. I've updated readme for the repo, providing steps for SDK installation. Could you please follow these steps and try to build the project one time more?

P.S. If you changed anything (i.e. switched project SDK), could you please reset the repo first? Just to be sure that the code in GitHub is valid.

ourfor commented 6 years ago

OK, great,Thank you

ourfor commented 6 years ago

OK, it's fine.

rpeshkov commented 6 years ago
