[LinuxBIOS] How to access the SVN server
by Darmawan Salihun 18 May '07

18 May '07

Hi all, Sorry to ask such a basic question like this. However, I've read the development guidelines and other pages but cannot find info regarding what it the svn server used to host the LinuxBIOSv2 source code. I've tried svn.linuxbios.org, But, tortoiseSVN that I'm using cannot connect to it. I think, I might try connecting to the wrong server/address :-(. I can browse it with browser, but what I want to do is to checkout the entire trunk. Anyone can help me? TIA, Darmawan

[LinuxBIOS] LinuxBIOS flyer/fact sheet
by Peter Stuge 17 May '07

17 May '07

I am going to LinuxTag with Stefan and Carsten from Forth e.V. I'm planning on havng a friend make a flyer or two about LB for the expo and for later use too. They'll be part of the LB press kit as well. Which logos should we have on there? * Manhole Tux does anyone remember who made him and if there's a vectorized or at least high resolution rasterized version somewhere? The one on the wiki is the best me and Stefan can find. http://www.linuxbios.org/data/images/linuxbioslogo-trans.png It's not too useful. Worst case the logo will have to be remade but if there's a high-resolution version somewhere that could save time. * AMD Reading the AMD graphic usage agreement http://www2.amd.com/Agreement_Handler/1,,572_590_116,00.html?redirectURL=/g… it says that we should not use the graphics in a manner that implies sponsorship of LinuxBIOS, but we do want to show off the companies that are contributing to the project. How does AMD, NVIDIA, MSI, Tyan, LANL/DoD and GNU want to be represented in LinuxBIOS marketing material? Could people at the respective companies ask the right person to either contact the list or me directly at peter(a)stuge.se? There are many more companies and organizations. Please tell me which ones I have omitted here. I'd like to also have logos for * Coresystems GmbH (Stefan's company) * Konsult Stuge (My company) Also, does anyone have any special points they think should go on the flyers? I will pick stuff from the wiki of course but maybe you have an idea that hasn't been written down there and/or want something in particular to be emphasized? //Peter

[LinuxBIOS] SPD Logical and Physical Banks
by joe＠smittys.pointclark.net 17 May '07

17 May '07

Hello, Can someone please explain to me the difference between Logical and Physical Banks on SDRAM? I am looking for a quick and dirty way to determine if the SDRAM module is single sided or double sided through SPD. Would I use the Logical (SPD Byte 17) or Physical (SPD Byte 5) Bank for that? Thanks - Joe

[LinuxBIOS] Tyan S2865 CK804 interrupt routing help needed
by Jeremy Jackson 17 May '07

17 May '07

I'm working on Tyan S2865 again here, Nvidia CK804, and I can't get PCI32 bus interrupts going. I've got mptable.c working for onboard devices and PCI-e sots. I've got a quad-ethernet PCI card working in slot one, which demonstrates that all 4 PCI INTR[1234] pins are working however i can't seem to get interrupts from any pin of any other slot [2-4] or the onboard ATI VGA or firewire chips (which are on PCI32 bus also) I have done trial and error on slots 2-4 using interrupts 16-25 with no effect (IO-APIC vectors and beyond) the motherboard's manual has a PCI interrupt "swizzle" table, but it appears to be cut and pasted from another model and regardless is unintelligible, so I put the quad ethernet card in slots 2-4, expecting that at least one interrupt ABCD pin would fire, but nothing, absolutely no interrupts are generated from slots 2-4 or either onboard PCI device. The other slots host a Matrox Millennium adapter that works as fbconsole, so the slots aren't completely dead. Any CK804 specific tips or general Linux interrupt detection tips are appreciated. Regards, Jeremy

[LinuxBIOS] about LinuxBIOS compilation on tyan s2912
by Ning (Michael) Qu 17 May '07

17 May '07

Hi, All, We just got the tyan s2912 mainboard and we plan to build a LinuxBIOS for it soon. I know there is a huge patch for s2912 which was not merged into LinuxBIOS in Mar. How about the status of that patch or how about the support for s2912 in LinuxBIOS. Could anyone give some suggestion about building LinuxBIOS for s2912. And another question is that, does flashrom support s2912 now? And how to deal with the video BIOS for s2912? Thanks for your help and advices! Best, Ning
