Also, when booting Linux, the LED driver does not work with coreboot for me.
The issue is that the driver is using a hard coded base address rather than finding out what is actually programmed into the device, and because coreboot doesn't assign resources exactly like the factory BIOS, the driver can't find the hardware.
Depending on the address, that could be easy to fix. If it is below 0x1000 it is almost trivial.
It's at 6000 something,
So that would be easy too.
and I don't like to. I would much prefer the driver not make assumptions for no da^Wreason.
Agreed. I guess it comes down to making changes where you can. Have you filed a bug report with the driver's authors?
Thanks, Myles
