[coreboot - Bug #527] Can't compile coreboot on Arch Linux
by Peter Daru 07 Sep '24

07 Sep '24

Issue #527 has been updated by Peter Daru. Sorry if this doesn't fit here. I thought this is similar if not same issue as op's one. I was following [doc tutorial](https://doc.coreboot.org/tutorial/part1.html) for qemu x64 and also couldn't compile. I run fully up to date installation (apart from kernel itself). Turns out doing `$ make clang CPUS=$(nproc)` and then `$ make` I was able to compile. This is what I got following tutor: ``` # # No change to /home/daru/Git/coreboot/payloads/coreinfo/.config # Makefile:358: warning: overriding recipe for target

[coreboot - Bug #548] (New) Computer Fails To Recognize Upgraded WiFi Card
by Jeremy Brown 02 Sep '24

Issue #548 has been reported by Jeremy Brown. ---------------------------------------- Bug #548: Computer Fails To Recognize Upgraded WiFi Card https://ticket.coreboot.org/issues/548 * Author: Jeremy Brown * Status: New * Priority: Normal * Target version: none * Start date: 2024-07-15 ---------------------------------------- I am running coreboot 24.05 on my Lenovo X201. I decided to upgrade my WiFi card from an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 to an Intel Wireless-AC 7260; since I selected the option to support Intel PCIe cards in my build config I expected everything to work but my computer fails to recognize the new card. The old card is still recognized if I reinstall it so I know I didn't mess up the socket somehow; I've read reports of the 7260 [working with a modded factory BIOS](https://richbits.rbarnes.org/installing-the-intel-7260-in-the-thinkpa… so I don't think there's an electrical issue. I've attached lspci data from both chips, lmk if additional information is needed. ---Files-------------------------------- 6205_lspci_tree.txt (1.63 KB) 7260_lspci_tree.txt (1.57 KB) 6205_lspci.txt (12.8 KB) 7260_lspci.txt (12.2 KB) -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.

[coreboot - Bug #552] (New) X201 not booting with edk2 payload

Issue #552 has been reported by Maya Matuszczyk. ---------------------------------------- Bug #552: X201 not booting with edk2 payload https://ticket.coreboot.org/issues/552 * Author: Maya Matuszczyk * Status: New * Priority: Normal * Category: board support * Target version: none * Start date: 2024-08-18 * Affected hardware: x201 ---------------------------------------- Hello, I tried to update my x201 with a new version of coreboot(I lost the working one). After building(using default config + set to x201 + bigger cbfs + linear high-res framebuffer) with latest release I couldn't get anything with edk2 to boot on it. I've tried changing `RESOURCE_ALLOCATION_TOP_DOWN` and using newer/older tags of MrChromebox's edk2 fork. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.

[coreboot - Bug #121] T520: Hangs in OS
by Ján Mlynek 01 Sep '24

01 Sep '24

Issue #121 has been updated by Ján Mlynek. I updated to main a week ago and after more than 100 hours of uptime, I didn't experience any hangs so far. This amount of time wasn't possible to achieve before. I will report again in a few weeks if no hangs occur but it looks promising. T420, i7-3632QM ---------------------------------------- Bug #121: T520: Hangs in OS https://ticket.coreboot.org/issues/121#change-1907 * Author: Firstname Lastname * Status: In Progress * Priority: Normal * Category: chipset configuration * Start date: 2017-06-09 * Affected hardware: SNB, IVY * Affected OS: - ---------------------------------------- I have been running coreboot since 2017.04.15 and have experienced hangs ever since then. It was suggested by folk on the IRC that I run memtest to check for incorrect raminit causing errors, however I have run memtest for 12 hours straight with no errors. Due to the ambiguous nature of the hangs (immediate freeze with no warning signs, audio gets stuck repeating the last 50ms or so of noise, not sure what this effect is called) I don't have much useful information other than the .config and dmesg. However one thing I can say with high confidence is that the hangs occur significantly more frequently in Linux (*buntu distros) than Windows 10. Within an hour of launching Linux a hang is likely, whereas Windows typically runs for many hours before a hang occurs. I considered this an insignificant anecdotal anomaly at first but over the course of the nearly 2 months I have been running coreboot it seems to be a solid trend. The hangs occur anywhere, typically during mere desktop usage or basic web browsing. Additionally there is another form of hang I experience where the screen goes black except for some sort of graphical corruption down the left side (http://i.imgur.com/4zWrlpX.jpg), whether this is related to the more common total freeze hangs I don't know but I figured I should include it nonetheless. These hangs only occur about 1:20 compared to the regular hangs. ---Files-------------------------------- config (20.7 KB) dmesg.txt (57.3 KB) cbmem-raminit.txt (62 KB) lspci.txt (29.6 KB) cpuinfo.txt (3.94 KB) defconfig (1023 Bytes) defconfig (699 Bytes) -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
