Hi
I realized some guys on this list were talking about porting ASUS A8N-SLI.
I started porting LinuxBIOS to ASUS A8N-E [1]. The boards seem to share some similarities so maybe my code is of any use for A8N-SLI port.
At the moment I'am able to fully boot an open SuSE 10.0 using the standard SuSE SMP kernel.
Network, sata, ide, usb and vga are working fine.
Unfortunately I still have some issues with IT8712F superio. Keyboard and mouse are not working (have to use usb counterparts). I finally ended up writing a little tool that dumps the register values of IT8712F (see attachement). As of writing this I'am pretty sure it is no issue of IT8712F alone. It seems to be an interrupt problem. Maybe some extra interrupt settings of ck804 are needed?? Unfortunately I don't have any mb schematics nor any ck804 data sheets that would help me further here :(.
I would be perfectly happy to provide a svn diff if it is of interest for you guys.
phil
