Hello, I found a ZIF Socket (that works form me when I remove the WOL header) at Digikey for $13.33. It is part number A443-ND (CONN IC SOCKET ZIF 32POS TIN). Here are a few quick pics of it on a PCChips M758LMR+ with the WOL header removed. http://www.groomlakelabs.com/grandamp/pictures/linuxbios/m758lmr.jpg http://www.groomlakelabs.com/grandamp/pictures/linuxbios/closeup.jpg Each image size is between 200 & 300k Regards, Todd E.

Hi all, Is the config file generator on the linuxbios web site going to be updated with the latest working boards? At this moment, it doesn't seem to be working... Thanks in advance for your time! Regards, Todd E. Johnson tejohnson(a)yahoo.com

RE: No IRQ Known for interrupt pin A of device 02:04.0. Please try using pci=biosirq
by David Xiong 01 Oct '02

The mainboard is K7SEM and irq_tables.c is already in the source tree. I run the program getpir and get an irq_tables.c file which is the same as the one in the source tree. The program util/getpir reports 6 slot found, whether I plug in the multimedia card or not, and produce exact the same irq_tables.c. And the option HAVE_PIRQ_TABLE=1 is set in the config file of the source tree. I traced into the kernel source and found that the original BIOS set IRQ when POST, but linuxbios does not do so. The IRQ is 0 when start up with linuxbios. When the driver of the multimedia card comes up, it find the card has not an IRQ. Then the driver try to get one from the irq_table, but the PCI device is not in the irq_table, so it can not find one or assign one to the device. What else can I do? Can I hard code one irq to the card? Thanks!

If this is a new board I need all the info so I can put it in the source tree. ron
