[LinuxBIOS] RE: AMD dual core support and four rank dimm support
by YhLu 02 Jun '05

02 Jun '05

Note: Some MB doesn't support dual core, So if you enable it, you could blow off your VRM or MB... So you need to check with your HW vendor to see if HW is dual core ready. It seems that list linuxbios(a)openbios.org is broken, Stefan, can you check it? YH > -----Original Message----- > From: YhLu > Sent: Thursday, June 02, 2005 11:12 AM > To: 'Ronald G.

[LinuxBIOS] Questions regarding the TV IN functions for one of the boards that were used
by Gregg C Levine 02 Jun '05

02 Jun '05

(Resending message. I think the original got lost someplace. Apologies to all if it did get there.) Hello from Gregg C Levine I've got a new project being created. It concerns a system that uses a rather specialized, and unfortunately not open sourced protocol for talking to external hardware. However the software that does speak to the device is. It's the One-Wire protocol, and the OWFS software, http://owfs.sf.net Basically the hardware would be communicating with other items that would eventually create a video signal. For development purposes I've chosen to, ah, do things here, and I'd be using a specific tuner card, name on request. But I'd eventually like to move to a Linux BIOS solution. Here's an e-mail message that Google found for me that concerns itself with one of the EPIA family boards: ----- Embedded Linux Forum ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Original Topic: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Mini-PCI TV Tuners with hardware encoding Posted by tekmage (andrew(a)plumb.org) on 12-22-2004 09:29:33 What mini-pci TV Tuners have people had success using in Linux based systems? Follow-up questions would be what chipsets do they use (i.e. which device drivers are they compatible with) and from whom can I buy small quantities? I have plans for a Kontron X-board based system, and VIA's upcoming EPIA N board will also have a mini-pci slot, opening up options for a lot of people. Thanks! Andrew. ---- It came from a forum which lives somewhere on the Linux Devices site, or did, I do not know if the forum is still active. I do remember that one of the EPIA boards did support composite video out, but I do not recall which one, nor do I have access to my local archives. And Ron, if this is really not on topic for anything currently being discussed, even though I do plan on my board design becoming a Linux BIOS platform, I shall discontinue discussing it, with this message. ----- Gregg C Levine hansolofalcon(a)worldnet.att.net --- "Remember, the Force will be with you...

[LinuxBIOS] RE: Might a Thunder K8WE Support LinuxBios too?
by YhLu 01 Jun '05

It's already supported, and the code is in the public tree two weeks ago. YH _____ From: Calvin Kendall [mailto:calvinkendall@shaw.ca] Sent: Tuesday, May 31, 2005 10:13 PM To: YhLu Cc: linuxbios(a)openbios.org Subject: Might a Thunder K8WE Support LinuxBios too? Being a very interested but very raw newbie to the whole "world of" LinuxBIOS, please excuse me. The Tyan Thunder K8W (S2885) is listed at linuxbios.org as a supported motherboard. Although not listed itself, would the new ("New" as per the Tyan website.) K8WE (S2895) also be a supported motherboard? The reason I venture to speculate is that the S2895 appears to be an "updated" version of the similar S2885. Thank you for your precious time and valuable undivided attention. Later, Calvin E. Kendall, S.F.O.

RE: [LinuxBIOS] Intel E7501 Northbridge head-scratching

It should be working. But I wonder some AMD check in about MTRR or CPU initialization would break it.

why still waste time on Intel platform? They will not support LinuxBIOS, because they have EFI....
