I tried to use coreboot on VIA EPIA ME6000G. With revision 2184 system starts but with newest revision there are some problems.
What problems?
Sorry, but at my last posting my email prog used wrong email adress. With this adress I wrote my problems some time ago. I had to just irq polling and the x-server couldn't find video card. For more information you could look to mailing list.
I know you can't test new revisions with all boards,
Actually there is infrastructure to do just that, but it's not super easy to integrate with yet.
No problem
but there where about 1300 new one. Does no one use this board or is there no development for ME6000G anymore?
I think both those statements are true. It's a rather old board. I had an EPIA-MII, but the caps blew and I haven't been able to source new ones easily enough.
Some information would be nice to see what I am going to do on my project.
I'm sorry, but I'm not sure what the problem is. Maybe it's acceptable for you to keep using the old revision? If not you'll of course have to rebase your local patch and help find the problem with newer revs on the board. Could you send your changes to the mailing list?
Maybe the old rev works so good I could use old sources. I will test and look what changes could be interesting for me. If I will do changes on sources to work better with coreboot on my board I will post these changes here. But at first I have to look if anything important does not run.
