Hello, John Von Essen! On Tue, Apr 16, 2002 at 02:55:00PM -0400, you wrote: > I have had 810 chipset boards mysteriously panic every month or so.

BTW, I've just found info about i810 on Intel site, it is about Linux and video, but it could make a sense: http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/intel810/Release_Notes_1.htm <cut> # Specify an amount of RAM. For the kernel to know how much RAM you # have available for use you will need to supply a boot parameter to # LILO, either at the boot prompt or in the configuration file. At the # LILO prompt, enter the name of the kernel you want (Usually 'linux' # unless you changed it) followed by mem=##M. The ## is the amount of # memory you have in megabytes. REMEMBER to subtract 1 MB for the part # taken by the graphics chip; otherwise your kernel will die during # boot-up. If it still dies, subtract another 1MB; this could be taken # by vendor specific BIOS needs. If your distribution has a graphical # boot screen, boot parameters may not be possible. You may still be # able to edit the lilo.conf as is detailed below. LILO: linux mem=63M </cut> But I've already said that "Init video first" BIOS setting it set to PCI, but cannot tell if onboard video is disabled completely or not by this setting. -- NEVE-RIPE To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
