Hi,
I'm attempting to use Coreboot with a Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H (rev 1.1) board -- listed on the 'Supported boards' list -- with an AMD Phenom II X4 955 (HDZ955FBGIBOX) processor. Proprietary VGA BIOS extraction, building, flashing, and DualBIOS recovery all work well.
The board coreboots reasonably well with a Athlon II X2 245 processor. Debug log output: coreboot / GA-MA785GMT-UD2H / Athlon II X2 245 http://pastebin.com/9GxVnAha
coreboot dmesg / GA-MA785GMT-UD2H / Athlon II X2 245 http://pastebin.com/MztWHjfv
However with the Phenom II X4 processor Coreboot times out with " Time out waiting for P-state 1. Current P-state 0...": coreboot debug log / Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H http://pastebin.com/zinViJ4i

It's OK in my case to have the processor remain in P0 indefinably. Any patch suggestions?
