Hi all, Well for all those Europeans which might feel bit sad that California is "far far way" I have a following proposal. Lets meet in Prague for a weekend in April/May. I think I could get some dormitory style accommodation and we can meet at university at the weekend. Prague is not so distant: Prague - Dresden - 153km Prague - Wien - 334km Prague - Nurnberg - 291km I created some doodle (which contains just fridays from the intended weekends). http://doodle.com/2n4h3gcugwvs6c9k Thanks, Rudolf

Status of dediprog support?
by Carl Worth 18 Jan '11

18 Jan '11

I was delighted to find flashrom when I needed to recently flash a chip with a Dediprog SF100 and I googled for "dediprog linux". I started with the 0.9.2 release of flashrom as packaged by Debian, but didn't find support for "flashrom -p dediprog". I then noticed a 0.9.3 release on the website, downloaded the latest code from subversion, compiled it and *still* didn't get support for "flashrom -p dediprog". After digging through the Makefile, it was easy enough to find the support I needed by doing: make CONFIG_DEDIPROG=yes My question is, what needs to happen before this is the default setting? (Such that the package in Debian will have this support compiled in for my convenience.) For everything I did, (writing and verifying a couple of chips on a couple of boards), the Dediprog support seems to work just fine. Is there some further testing I could help do before this support is enabled by default? Thanks, -Carl -- carl.d.worth(a)intel.com

Big problem with BIOS. Questions
by Germán Rotondo 18 Jan '11

18 Jan '11

Hi. Greetings from Argentina. My english is not so good so I hope you can understand me. I have a chinese tablet pc netbook with Atom N450 - Intel NM10 Chipset. Being the most stupid guy in the world, I've found an updated bios in a forum and downloaded it. Tablet was running Ubuntu linux. I've flashed it with flashrom 0.9.3 without reading a thing about that notebooks and netbooks are not compatible because of the embedded controller. Flashing went OK. Flash memory detected OK, erased and programmed. After reset. . . Dead netbook After powering cycle, power light turns on, but no video. No boot block access, nothing. I have electronics skills, so I've taken it apart, and found that the motherboard has two identical flash chips, EON 25F80. I've desoldered both chips, read both with an external programmer to see what was on them, first chip had the original AMI bios, that was on the netbook prior to flashing. The second one has the new ami bios I've flashed and bricked. I've programmed the second chip with the original BIOS dump I've made before update, soldered it again and nothing happened. Board is dead. I'm little lost about the two flash scenario. When first chip is removed, board does not even power up, so I think it might be the embedded controller bios, but it's a complete ami bios?. Any help, thoughts you could give me would be of great help Thanks a lot German

FYI, I was able to successfully write a new BIOS file to flash for the Winbond W39040FC by using the unlock_w39v040fb() function. Shane

Minor Code cleanup resulting in a smaller binary
by Mathias Krause 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

This patch reduces the stack usage by declaring 'const' stack variables as 'static const' so they end up in the .rodata section instead of being copied from there to the stack for every invocation of the corresponding function. As a plus we end up in having a smaller binary as the "copy from .rodata to stack" code isn't emitted by the compiler any more (roughly -100 bytes).
