I don't know if it is Silicon Image 3114 bug or sth..., or if there is any bit to check if the HDD scan is busy...for us to check... YH

[LinuxBIOS] Strange code in src/northbridge/via/vt8623/raminit.c ?
by Eric Poulsen 24 Apr '06

24 Apr '06

While poking around trying to get VGA working, I did a grep for '3123', and I found this. Notice how the variable 'north' is assigned to the result of the 'pci_locate_device' call, then immediately re-assigned to zero ... and then used. Is this correct? static void ddr_ram_setup(const struct mem_controller *ctrl) { device_t north = (device_t) 0; uint8_t b, c, bank; uint16_t i,j; unsigned long bank_address; print_debug("vt8623 init starting\r\n"); north = pci_locate_device(PCI_ID(0x1106, 0x3123), 0); north = 0; pci_write_config8(north,0x75,0x08); ... }

Re: [LinuxBIOS] Extraction of vga bios from .BIN file?

Hi. The VIA EPIA BIOS is an Award/Phoenix Award BIOS, so it contains lh5/lha compressed modules. With a hex editor and/or lha/lh5 unpacker you can extract the VGABIOS from the VIA EPIA BIOS file. Using "CBROM"/"CBROM32"/"Award BIOS Editor"/..., you can see that the BIOS file contains following BIOS modules: CBROM32 V1.45 [08/03/04 Release] (C)Phoenix Technologies 2001-2004 ******** i0100113.bin BIOS component ******** No. Item-Name Original-Size Compressed-Size Original-File-Name ========================================================================= 0.

[LinuxBIOS] clusters
by Clessio Leao 24 Apr '06

24 Apr '06

Hi anyone, In this first moment I would like to say thanks for your attention. Mi name is Clessio and I'm a physics student at UFPE, Brazil. Today I have a serious doubt. I can't imagine how can I construct a cluster wuith differents kinds of PC´s (6 AMD Athlon 64 bits, motherboard - K8TNeo-V) and 2 Pentium IV 3.2Ghz. If anyone know something about it, please tell me as soon as possible. Thanks for everything, Clessio Leão UFPE

[LinuxBIOS] Extraction of vga bios from .BIN file?
by Eric Poulsen 24 Apr '06

I've downloaded the 1.13 version of the Epia Via BIOS, which should solve my VGA issues. Thing is, I can't seem to find a valid VGA BIOS within this file -- Is there a magic trick to extracting this? Bios file: http://www.via.com.tw/download/mainboards/1/0/i0100113.bin

[LinuxBIOS] Epia ML 5000 progress (sort of)
by Eric Poulsen 24 Apr '06

24 Apr '06

I finally got myself a serial cable, but there's a BIG gotcha. My whole plan was to have a data logging device that boots very quickly. Hence, my use of LinuxBIOS. Here's the gotcha: There's an EIGHT SECOND delay from power on (or reset switch) until the time LinuxBIOS sends anything to the serial port. Anyone have any ideas about this one? FWIW, the stock BIOS shows a logo within 3 seconds of power on. Here's the relevant section of the LinuxBIOS output regarding VGA, which is what I wanted to get working. I'm thinking "Oops, Exception 6" might be a problem, as well as the "Bailing out" message. I'm pretty sure my VGA Bios is okay: 1) The image file begins with AA55 (or 55AA, whatever it is) 2) X.org starts okay, which uses the BIOS, AFAIK; when I had a BAD Bios, X wouldn't start. 3) LinuxBIOS actually finds the AA55 sig, or else it wouldn't print what you see below. Anyone have any thoughts on the VGA?

[LinuxBIOS] GX2 status
by Ronald G Minnich 24 Apr '06

24 Apr '06

as of today I am booting linux on my AMD rumba! i am using busybox and getting to a /bin/ash prompt. Things all seem to work. I can insmod the rtl8139 driver, but I'm not sure yet how INTA hooks up to the SB. That's for today. Thanks to Steve Goodrich, who came down and got us off the ground, and all the great folks at AMD who have given us so much help. This week's work will be ethernet and graphics. We're getting there. Anyone else out there doing GX2 at this point? ron
