The strangest post codes
by Joseph Smith 05 Apr '11

05 Apr '11

Well now I am completely stumped. Both my i854 and i855 boards both crap out with the same strange post codes. Two completely different boards and two completely different bios vendors.... i854 ------ IO: outl 0cf8 <= 8000f844 IO: inb 0cfc => 00 PCI 0:1f.0 R.44 IO: outb 0cfc <= 10 PCI 0:1f.0 R.44 IO: inw 1004 => 0000 IO: outw 0080 <= fea0 IO: outl 0cf8 <= 800000fc IO: outw 0cfc <= 0109 PCI 0:00.0 R.fc IO: outb 0080 <= 01 IO: outb 0080 <= 02 IO: outw 0080 <= eee3 --craps out after this---- i855 ------- IO: outl 0cf8 <= 8000f8a4 IO: inb 0cfc => 01 PCI 0:1f.0 R.a4 IO: outl 0cf8 <= 8000f8a4 IO: outb 0cfc <= 00 PCI 0:1f.0 R.a4 IO: inb 04b9 => 02 IO: outb 04b9 <= 03 IO: outw 0080 <= fea0 IO: outl 0cf8 <= 800000fc IO: outw 0cfc <= 0109 PCI 0:00.0 R.fc IO: outw 0080 <= eee3 --craps out after this---- Anyone ever seen these 16bit post codes before? Help? -- Thanks, Joseph Smith Set-Top-Linux www.settoplinux.org

Serial output on Winbond W83627HG

Hello, I am having a hell of a time getting serial output from serialice on a Winbond W83627HG. I have tried everything I can think of and hoping someone on the list will be able to help or have suggestions. Note I do get garbage serial output: ----------------------------------- Welcome to minicom 2.5 OPTIONS: I18n Compiled on Jan 31 2011, 09:58:19. Port /dev/ttyS0 Press CTRL-A Z for help on special keys �� ---------------------------------- Normally when you get garbage output is is because the baudrates are wrong, but both of my baudrates are 115200 in serialice and host PC. Also the serial console works fine with vendor bios and Linux. Things I have tried: Tried changing from COM1 to COM2, still garbage output. Tried adding port 0x80 posts and it gets all the way through the mainboard code. Tried changing SuperIO config port from 0x2e to the alternate 0x4e (no output at all). Tried changing CLK from 48Mhz to 24Mhz (no output at all). Attached is my mainboard config and superiotool output, please take a look and see if there is anything you could suggest. Thanks in advance. -- Thanks, Joseph Smith Set-Top-Linux www.settoplinux.org
