Shows up blank in my mozilla, but read it in lynx.
Huh?! Thats really plain HTML and i could read it with Konqui and Iceweasel (aka Firefox). But to be sure i just validated the page: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fprivate.vlsi.informatik.tu-da...
What size is the SMD resistor? 0805, 0603 or something else? And what does it do? Where is it connected?
The resistor is connected to INIT# of PLCC32 socket. It's an pullup which has been missing for the open pads. This pullup will eventually be pulled down by the switch connected to pad T12.
Please confirm once you've tried flashrom. Booting only requires reads to work, but IIRC all relevant signals were connected across.
Yes but first i have to get some rom image. Or is the original firmware from Gigabyte in a format that can be used by flashbios?
Current kernels only need "acpi_use_timer_override" as cmdline option for successfull booting.
Do we know why?
Well actually i filed a bugreport: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8219
