Compaq Ipaq Intel 810E Vendor ID missmatch - coreboot

30 Aug 2009


      Hello,
I try to get run coreboot on a Compaq Ipaq PIII Pro Board.
The board comes with a 810E Intel Chipset, SMC SuperIO, NIC and AUDIO
onBoard. Also VGA is integrated to the chipset and provides 4MB graphics
memory, which is soldered (not shared with system memory) near the 810E.
Currently there are two problems for me.
First, without set CONFIG_VIDEO_MB > 0 the Device is not detected (or
disabled?) by coreboot.
Means, there is now PCI_ROM_RUN for the onboard VGA.
lspci don't list the device later.

Second, if CONFIG_VIDEO_MB is set to 1, the device inits, but later i
get a vendor missmatch for vga.rom. Furthermore, the system needs about
50 seconds to boot linux.
No VGA, but the Kernel FB810 Module detects the device.

lspci shows the device as 8086:7125 on both coreboot and factory bios.
If I change the vendor ID, like MS 6178 to 7123 or 7121, coreboot fails
by an incorecct PCI Expansion signature which is pointed to 0x0000 (the
first cbfs bytes and not the vga.bios)
To start, i have taken the Mitac files. This Board seems very closer to
the Ipaq. FWH is a Intel 82802AB. It can be programed by flashrom and is
normaly soldered.
Happy about any help
