thank you again for your awesome work! Could you add the log stuff
somewhere, please? For example the Wiki [1] or a message to this list.

I do *not* have this board. A friend of mine has one. Though he is not
capable to test anything.

That’s strange. What Linux kernel do you use? Do you get any error
messages?

Awesome! Due to a newer SeaBIOS version or coreboot changes?

No idea. As you know already, according to Jens the Verb Table format is
undocumented and Realtek does not give out any information [2].

What chip do you have? Realtek ALC887? At least that is what searching
for »f2a85-m realtek alc« seems to suggest.

What SeaBIOS version do you use?


Thanks,
