Hi, all, The new auto-generated acpi table doesn't seem to be correct on dbm690t. Dose anybody have any idea?

DIP8 SPI flashes
by Rudolf Marek 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

Hello, I'm about to order some DIP8 SPI flashes size 1MB. If someone is from europe I think I can send them just like a normal letter. Farnell wants 5EUR for postage, but I have in plan to use some local distributor so I hope to be like 2EUR. They have also 512KB http://cz.farnell.com/amic/a25l40pu-f/ic-flash-4mb-spi-bottom-boot/dp/15660… http://cz.farnell.com/amic/a25l40pt-f/ic-flash-4mb-spi-top-boot/dp/1566002 And I want: http://cz.farnell.com/amic/a25l80p-f/ic-flash-8mb-spi/dp/1565995 Or maybe one can use http://bios-repair.co.uk/bios/eeprom.htm They have some for ~6EUR I think we can obtain the postage for 1EUR so cost would be like 2EUR... Is someone interrested? Thanks, Rudolf

LinuxTag 2009 in Berlin, June 24-27
by Peter Stuge 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

Hello, I am happy to announce that coreboot will be exhibiting at LinuxTag in Berlin again this year, following up on our presence there in 2007 and 2008. http://www.linuxtag.org/2009/ If you have any ideas about something fun that we haven't tried at a booth before, or if there is something in particular that you would like to see, and of course certainly if there is something that you would like to prepare yourself, I would love to hear about it! If you have experience from our booths in the past maybe you can comment on what must be improved this time? Everyone who has a chance to make it to Berlin should make sure to come check the expo out! LinuxTag is a fantastic opportunity to meet others who are active in or interested in open source software. Lots of fun! :) //Peter

flashrom touches only 0x70000-0x80000 addresses of my bios flash
by Alexander Gordeev 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Hi All! I've tried flashrom on my Gigabyte GA-K8N-SLI board but it can only write to 0x70000-0x80000. This includes both write and erase. Could you please help me to solve this? BTW, I don't yet have a backup chip so tested changes are preferred :) Here is the probe output: alex@tornado:~/bios$ sudo flashrom flashrom v0.9.0+r544 No coreboot table found. Found chipset "NVIDIA CK804", enabling flash write... OK. Calibrating delay loop... OK. Found chip "PMC Pm49FL004" (512 KB) at physical address 0xfff80000. No operations were specified. Here is the output of lshw: *-firmware:0 description: BIOS vendor: Award Software International, Inc. physical id: 0 version: F4 (05/11/2006) size: 128KiB capacity: 448KiB capabilities: isa pci pnp apm upgrade shadowing cdboot bootselect socketedrom edd int13floppy360 int13floppy1200 int13floppy720 int13floppy2880 int5printscreen int9keyboard int14serial int17printer int10video acpi usb ls120boot zipboot biosbootspecification *-firmware:1 description: BIOS physical id: 20 size: 1023KiB capabilities: apm bootselect socketedrom int13floppytoshiba int5printscreen I hope this helps. -- Alexander
