Re: [coreboot] No parallel port set up on Alix 1D board

[Joao Bonina]

Hello Marc,

can you give me some pointers on that? Is there a tutorial or information resource for that?

Where could I check the SIO code for that?

Thanks,
Joao

The error is in your log:
PNP: 002e.1 60 <- [0x0000000378 - 0x000000037f] size 0x00000008 gran 0x03 io
PNP: 002e.1 70 <- [0x0000000007 - 0x0000000007] size 0x00000001 gran 0x00 irq
ERROR: PNP: 002e.1 74 drq size: 0x0000000001 not assigned

You'll need to see what is going on in the SIO code for that device.
The setting is done in the mainboard devicetree.cb.

No parallel port set up on Alix 1D board

[QingPei Wang]

you can check your SIO code under coreboot/src/superio/(chip brand)/chip/* .
it seems the parallel port are not configured correctly.
