FreeBSD doesn't currently support the TGA card that's built into a multia for use as a console. You'll need to either use a serial console or put in a vga card for now. Make sure to say 'set console serial' at the srm console prompt (>>>). There is a person who's working on this (TGA support for syscons), but he's at an internship out of town & doesn't have access to an alpha until the end of the summer. So it will be at least a few months before it works.

I am new to this list as recently installing 3.2 on my alphastation 250 4/266. I must start by saying it was amazingly simple to install considering I was using the serial console!

The problem is that the alpha requires floating point code to be written in a special way to allow NaNs. INFs and denorms to work properly. Unfortunately the compiler in 3.2-RELEASE is not able to generate the right code. This is fixed in -current (use the -mieee flag) and will be fixed in 3.3 (different flags which I can't remember right now). -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.

I've never used one before; I've always used silicone grease. Does anyone know if I should use that gasket, and (if so) how should I think use the silicone grease (if at all)? Is there any rule of thumb about tightening down those two bolts that connect the heatsink to the processor?

Use it, that's what's spec'ed. :-) It's supposed to be compressible to eliminate any air pockets or whatever. Beware, make sure the sheet is trimmed to the right size and doesn't touch the capactitors on top of the CPU - that's a very good way to put 30 amps of 3.3v through your cpu and maybe blow up your power supply. (trust me, this warning is from personal experience :-). Now the question is, is the heatsink compound you're asking about conductive too? If so, what happens if it touches one of those components on top of the cpu? How tight? It's in the manual what to set a torque wrench to, but Mike Smith warned me that it's easy to strip the aluminium nuts, so don't overdo it. Just do it up tight enough - I did it about the same as drive mounting screws and case cover screws. Just make sure the heatsink doesn't move or slide at all as that's way too loose. I used a hand-size T wrench and socket to tighten it. Cheers, -Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
