Hello! Can you enable the KVM functions? Part of the problem with laptops is that there is a thing on them called an Embedded Controller, EC for short. Those devices do all of the housekeeping chores that the main system has delegated to them. For example certain functions are on it.
To that end most laptops aren't supported because these devices are proprietary in their designs and the programing of them. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."

hi all
i am using toshiba satellite c850d-m5010. the kvm is disabled by default in BIOS. it seems to me that many laptop manufacturers does not fully support kvm.
my output of the superiotool : # superiotool superiotool r6637 Found Nuvoton WPCE775x / NPCE781x (id=0x00, rev=0x01) at 0x2e
i did a search on website & it points to me 2 links only [[a] & [b]]. the link [a] is silent about BIOS & CB. the link [b] is silent about datasheets & comment.
the output of superiotool -V also states that dump is available.
there is also a request to add WPCE775x on mailing list [c] & there seems to no answer to the thread.
my questions: [1] does coreboot support kvm ? [2] can i install coreboot on Nuvoton WPCE775x / NPCE781x ? [3] does the support for Nuvoton WPCE775x / NPCE781x is added in coreboot ? [4] what does the dump available mean in output of superiotool -V ?
if you need any further information please let me know. please also provide appropriate commands if it involves any packages.
thank you reading the message patiently. even though i am subscribed to mailing list, please always cc me.
