Good evening i installed fedora 11 in my laptop Intel pentium III coppermine i'd like to flash the bios using flashrom the objectif is ( i hope) to fix a display problem - stripes on the screen, especially when i move the mouse. i tried to fix the problem with Xorg.conf and system-config-display withoot any success. Some people drived me in the french fedora forum. They invite my to join the flashrom IRC chat. for your information here a report when i launch flashrom with a terminal.
flashrom v0.9.1-r710 No coreboot table found. Found chipset "Intel PIIX4/4E/4M", enabling flash write... OK. This chipset supports the following protocols: Non-SPI. Calibrating delay loop... OK. No EEPROM/flash device found. If you know which flash chip you have, and if this version of flashrom supports a similar flash chip, you can try to force read your chip. Run: flashrom -f -r -c similar_supported_flash_chip filename
Note: flashrom can never write when the flash chip isn't found automatically.
i will stay connect on #flashrom as much as I can. Thank you for your help hope to hear from you soon regards guillaume de bamako
