2.4.19 BUG on PIRQ on geode chipsets
by Ronald G. Minnich 14 Nov '02

14 Nov '02

I know there are some connected Linux kernel guys on this list. Can one of you get back to the kernel core group and see about fixing the PIRQ bug introduced in 2.4.19 for Geode systems? I can send you the patch again. It would be nice to get this fixed. ron

SMI question (430TX)
by Andrew Kohlsmith 13 Nov '02

13 Nov '02

I'm looking at mainboard_fixup() provided in the digitallogic/smartcore-p5. In particular, the bit where they're turning off SMI. With my trusty piix4e manual on one desktop and the code in another, I find myself confused. Around line 165 it says it's verifying SMI is disabled. It then goes and sets bit 25 of register 58. On page 126 of the piix4e manual it says that setting bit 25 will turn ON the generation of SMI# when the APMC register is read. Also, what is on I/O port 0xb2? Regards, Andrew

RLX 800i: registered DRAM doesn't work
by Ronald G. Minnich 13 Nov '02

13 Nov '02

we just found out that registered DDR is not set up correctly on the RLX 800i. This is FYI. For all of you going to SC 02 we're going to have several linuxbios clusters, so stop on by the LANL booth. ron

jumping to boot code
by John Allen 13 Nov '02

13 Nov '02

Well, I have successfully got the kernel loaded and gunzipped off my hda1 partition. LinuxBIOS gets all the ways to the point where it jumps to the kernel(post card shows FE). Unfortunately I don't see any activity after that. I do, however, see my post card displaying an alternating 97 then 98. Any thoughts?

pcm-5823 pirq table and ide
by Andrew Ip 13 Nov '02

13 Nov '02

5823 can now get the pirq table with COMPRESS off, but the address of pirq table which detect from Linux kernel, is different from where LinuxBIOS wrote. For example, LinuxBIOS writes pirq table at 0xf0000, but Linux kernel found the table at 0xc00fd9b0. However, Winfast 6300 doesn't have this. Does anyone know how to turn on the second IDE channel on 5823-E0A1? Enabling bit 3 and 4 on 0x5b doesn't do the trick this time.

P6STMT
by Adam Sulmicki 13 Nov '02

13 Nov '02

hello, does anyone here runs P6STMT mbo by EliteGroup? Here are some sample urls to the MBO: http://www.ecs.com.tw/products/p6stmt.htm http://www.amptron.com/html/P6STMT.html http://www.icuepc.com/p6stmt.htm The "WinFast 6300" config file seems to work with it, but I was wondering if perhaps there's some better config file. -- Adam http://www.eax.com The Supreme Headquarters of the 32 bit registers

mainboard/advantech/pcm-5823/config.example - added options for rtl8139 and eepro100 mainboard/advantech/pcm-5823/mainboard.c - assigning irqs for ethernet ports and added option for rtl8139 and eepro100 southbridge/nsc/cs5530/southbridge.c - usb uses INTC instead of INTA Ron,would you add the eepro portion in mainboard/advantech/pcm-5823/mainboard.c, since I don't have pcm-5823 with eepro board.
