Re: Which kernel for framebuffering?
by YhLu 05 May '04

David, Please refer to the patch for 2.4.22 and 2.6.5, or you can put that in CVS ... Also please refer to the matix to see which kernel you want to use. Please make sure enable ati xl framebuffer only in kernel config. ( don't enable noinit) Regards YH -----邮件原件----- 发件人: Hendricks David W.

We are going to implement a slightly better one soon. Actually, the enable/disable for devices in amd8111 is multiplexed in amd8111_enable and the device_operation::enable() is directed to amd8111_enable. We are going to demultiplex this and each devices has its own "real" enable method. Ollie

I add some lines in amd8111, if USB2 is disabled, it will don't touch 0x48, only touch 0x47. if ((dev->vendor == PCI_VENDOR_ID_AMD) && (dev->device == PCI_DEVICE_ID_AMD_8111_USB2)) { if(!dev->enabled) { byte = pci_read_config8(lpc_dev, 0x47); byte |= (1<<7); pci_write_config8(lpc_dev, 0x47, byte); return; } } reg = reg_old = pci_read_config16(lpc_dev, 0x48); reg &= ~(1 << index); if (dev->enabled) { reg |= (1 << index); } if (reg != reg_old) { pci_write_config16(lpc_dev, 0x48, reg); } -----邮件原件----- 发件人: Li-Ta Lo [mailto:ollie@lanl.gov] 发送时间: 2004年5月5日 10:28 收件人: YhLu 抄送: ron minnich; Stefan Reinauer; LinuxBIOS 主题: Re: 答复: 答复: 答复: Disable USB2 in AMD8111 and remove ide hardcode io addr On Wed, 2004-05-05 at 10:51, YhLu wrote: > If I changed config.lb > PCI 1:0.2 on --> PCI 1:0.2 off > The PCI 1:0.0 and PCI 1:0.1 will be disabled together. > > According to AMD 8111 data sheet, LPC 0x48, only can be disabled the device > in second bus by device num, and the three USB share one device number. > > So I guess the code about 0x47 must be there. > Ron and I just dicurssed about the enable/disable mechanism for amd8111.

I change my mind, disable that in Config.lb is better and less code.

If AMD is certain about that, and no one else objects, I remove any concerns I have about this code. But please put in a more informative comment such as "will never work" thanks ron

Ron, I'm going to add several lines in amd8111_enable of amd8111.c to disable USB2 in amd8111. /* disable usb2 in amd 8111 because it does not work awlays*/ byte = pci_read_config8(lpc_dev, 0x47); byte |= (1<<7); pci_write_config8(lpc_dev, 0x47, byte); Also will remove several lines in amd8111_ide.c /* The AMD768 has a bug where the BM DMA address must be * 256 byte aligned while it is only 16 bytes long. * Hard code this to a valid address below 0x1000 * where automatic port address assignment starts. * FIXME: I assume the 8111 does the same thing. We should * clarify. stepan(a)suse.de */ pci_write_config32(dev, 0x20, 0xf01); pci_write_config32(dev, 0x48, 0x205e5e5e); word = 0x06a; pci_write_config16(dev, 0x4c, word); and add byte = 0x20 ; // Latency: 64-->32 pci_write_config8(dev, 0xd, byte); regards YH

Which kernel for framebuffering?
by Hendricks David W. 04 May '04

04 May '04

We were able to build and boot LinuxBIOS with VGA support for an HDAMA. FILO came up on screen and the keyboard worked, but we've been unable to get Linux framebuffering to work using a 64-bit kernel. We were wondering if there's anything special you had to do to make it work, or any special kernel version or patches we need to use.

Enable v.s. Enabled
by Li-Ta Lo 30 Apr '04

30 Apr '04

Hi, I changed the device:enable and chip_device_path::enable to device:enabled and chip_device_path::enabled because they are acutally verbs describe the status of the devices. I also change all the affected code I can find, there should be no problems except you have to re-run the config tool. Ollie

LinuxBIOS Video?
by Langlois Evan 29 Apr '04

29 Apr '04

Hi, If video isn't supported on a particular board, does this mean that video won't work at all? I could live with no video until after the Linux kernel initialized things, but I'm guessing that the card won't even be listed in the device table. Could someone explain this to me? Does this apply only to on-board video, or all add-on cards. Am I right in guessing that no add-on video cards are supported? Would it be possible to go into 16 bit mode temporarily to jump into the video ROM and initialize the card? Basically, I want a fast desktop (K8 maybe, the bus speeds seem to make it worth it) without a PC BIOS (I only use Linux, usually Gentoo). It looks like LinuxBIOS is mainly for headless clusters. The "Status" file on the web site looks painfully outdated, and the FAQ really needs some updates, and the mainboard directory in the source wasn't quite specific about what was supported either. I haven't gotten anything from this list in awhile, so please copy me directly as it would seem mail from the list isn't getting to me for some reason (possibly a problem at my end). Thanks, Evan Langlois

1. S2875 support is in the CVS tree already. 2. ATI randon --- At this time, you may not get the output from very beginning. 3. boot sata --- good question, I will try that. Maybe need to add some code in filo. Regards YH
