Re: [flashrom] Help: trouble when flashing rom

      Hi,
Attached the output of the gdb command.
At the moment I am on irc (nick: cyrille).
Groet,

Sorry for not using "reply to all.
I've attached the output of dmesg to this mail.
Hope you can help me further on this issue.
Hi,
This at first doesn't look good:
[38306.942453] flashrom[11711]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp bfacc5cc
error 4 in libpci.so.3.1.7[2b7000+9000]
Is your laptop still powered on and are you close to it ?
Can you run "gdb --args ./flashrom -V -w <file_you_want_to_write>" (as
root) and copy the output ?
You then should see this lines of text, the commands are after the
closing parentheses:
(gdb) run
// lots of text
(gdb) bt
// some more text, this is the relevant part
Are you able (and willing) to join IRC, irc://irc.freenode.net/#flashrom ?

Kind regards,

Dear Idwer,

...
...
...
...
...

...
...
...
...
...
...
First of all thank you for responding so fast and trying to help me!
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...

Downloaded and built latest flashrom. Problem remains exactly the

same
...
...
...
as with previous version.
...
...
...
...
...

I am using an Asus laptop model M6Ne, the exact type of board I

don't
...
...
...
know.
...
...
...
...
...

I have run the commands you mentioned, the results are attached to

this
...
...
...
mail.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
If there is more information you need, please let me know.
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Again, thanks for your help.

Can you:
...
...
...
...
...
...

try a newer release (or build the latest developemt code yourself

...
...
...
...
...
...
http://www.flashrom.org/Downloads#Installation_from_source)
...
...
...
...
...
...

mention the exact name of your board (including revision, if there

...
...
...
...
...
...
are multiple revisions)
...
...
...
...
...
...

attach the output of 'flashrom -V', 'lspci -nnvvvxxx', 'superiotool

...
...
...
...
...
...
-deV' (run all commands as root)
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Thanks in advance,
...
...
