We currently use 4 HP computers each with 3 soundcards and FreeBSD. It works fairly well, but we plan to add another 12 or so streams (if not 20+ more!) I just purchased two single board computer systems. Each one has the motherboard on a card (standard CTI/Telephony fare) with a backplane card that has 16 PCI slots. The computer will have a small IDE disk, a network interface, and lots of sound cards. IRQ conflicts... can PCI really share IRQs? And can it share them when the cards are actively "generating requests"? The sound cards are Sound Blaster 128 PCI's, which are base model cards (no game ports!). At minimum we could probably get 6 sound cards per machine, but it would be AWESOME to be able to shove 12 of them in each box.... is PCI that good, or am I still limited by the same factors that gave me headaches when putting a Sound Blaster 1.0 in a Tandy 1000sx? Also, the board says it has two PCI busses. One is tied to 2 PCI slots, one is tied to 14 slots. *NO* idea how that works. Much thanks. If I could just get the software developers to add support for splitting left and right audio into separate feeds :-( -- Ethan From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Mon May 12 02:58:48 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F130C37B401 for ; Mon, 12 May 2003 02:58:48 -0700 (PDT) Received: from s6sth1.nuaccess.net (s6sth1.nuaccess.net [213.142.2.247]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 10B1B43FAF for ; Mon, 12 May 2003 02:58:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sm7wqo@sk7dd.com) Received: from wqomain (ak89.nuaccess.net [213.142.10.89]) by s6sth1.nuaccess.net (Postfix) with SMTP id E1A552987E for ; Mon, 12 May 2003 11:58:40 +0200 (CEST) Message-Id: <4.1.20030512102408.00ab2c78@bamse.ktv.se> X-Sender: sm7wqo@bamse.ktv.se X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.1 Date: Mon, 12 May 2003 11:07:33 +0200 To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org From: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Bj=F6rn?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?_P=E5lsson?= Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Subject: Promise RAID is nutty X-BeenThere: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General discussion of FreeBSD hardware List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 12 May 2003 09:58:49 -0000 Hello,=20 Is there anyone who has an answer to why my disks only goes up to ATA-33?

The Intel server motherboards support some sort of network console redirection. I'm not sure if OS support is needed to use it or not. Another option you might consider is buying one of cyclades TS100 1-port terminal server and just hanging it off the back: http://www.cyclades.com/products/index.php?id=3D4 I've used the multiport ones with FreeBSD to great effect.

I wasn't clear. The BIOS setting for this is not selectable because it is not supported on the revision of the mainboard that I have (1.04).

In mine i have an option for "Power State After AC Loss" -- and the options are, "On", "Off", "Last State". So that means that for me, if my computer looses AC Power (plug is pulled, power out, or whatever), i can set it to turn my computer back ON, or leave it OFF, or have it return to the last state, so if it was off, it will stay off, it it was on it will turn on. So check your bios for something like that. I have checked 5 different ATX mb's and all of them have the option, just different name on some. -|- Hurgh -|- __________________________ Website: http://www.hurgh.org/ Forums: http://forums.hurgh.org/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Lockie" To: Sent: Wednesday, May 14, 2003 12:45 PM Subject: ATX boards and restart after power failure > > Does anybody remember this topic? > > DATE: 10/19/1998 02:35:30 > SUBJECT: RE: ATX boards and restart after power failure > > I have an Asus P5A r1.04 mainboard that I want to use for a server but > it does not reboot after a power failure. > r1.06 of the P5A does but that doesn't help me. > > Did anybody find a work around? > I've contacted Asus but I expect them to just say that I am out of luck > with the revision board that I have. > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hardware-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Tue May 13 20:16:04 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 486FD37B401 for ; Tue, 13 May 2003 20:16:04 -0700 (PDT) Received: from oxley.vic.edu.au (adsl007.vic.etalk.net.au [203.56.245.7]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C94D843F85 for ; Tue, 13 May 2003 20:16:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hurgh@oxley.vic.edu.au) Received: from allandesktop [10.0.1.198] by oxley.vic.edu.au with Novonyx SMTP Server $Revision: 2.72 $; Wed, 14 May 2003 13:17:01 +1000 (ESUT) Message-ID: <00e201c319c7$41063ce0$c601000a@allandesktop> From: "-|- Hurgh -|-" To: "Bob Lockie" References: <3EC1ADAC.3050107@lockie.ca> <3EC1B2C8.8000801@lockie.ca> Date: Wed, 14 May 2003 13:16:47 +1000 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1158 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2800.1165 cc: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Subject: Re: ATX boards and restart after power failure X-BeenThere: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General discussion of FreeBSD hardware List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 14 May 2003 03:16:04 -0000 Lol, just got this email just after i sent my last one,. so sorry to use up the bandwidth :) Have you tried getting a new firmware revision, it might have support for it?? -|- Hurgh -|- __________________________ Website: http://www.hurgh.org/ Forums: http://forums.hurgh.org/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Lockie" Cc: Sent: Wednesday, May 14, 2003 1:06 PM Subject: Re: ATX boards and restart after power failure > On 05/13/03 22:45 Bob Lockie spoke thusly > > > > > Does anybody remember this topic? > > > > DATE: 10/19/1998 02:35:30 > > SUBJECT: RE: ATX boards and restart after power failure > > > > I have an Asus P5A r1.04 mainboard that I want to use for a server but > > it does not reboot after a power failure. > > r1.06 of the P5A does but that doesn't help me. > > > > Did anybody find a work around? > > I've contacted Asus but I expect them to just say that I am out of luck > > with the revision board that I have. > > I wasn't clear. > The BIOS setting for this is not selectable because it is not supported > on the revision of the mainboard that I have (1.04). > It was later added to revision 1.06 of the mainboard but that doesn't > help me. > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hardware-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Tue May 13 21:14:24 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0159D37B401 for ; Tue, 13 May 2003 21:14:24 -0700 (PDT) Received: from fep1.cogeco.net (smtp.cogeco.net [216.221.81.25]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4A40543F93 for ; Tue, 13 May 2003 21:14:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bjlockie@lockie.ca) Received: from localhost.lockie.ca.

I flashed the latest BIOS, I'm pretty sure it is the hardware that was lacking. I did a search of the web and found a disussion on the list from 1998 about this problem.

(unless someone else gets in first). I am willing to experiment. I'll get my Dad to help, he is handy with circuits and stuff. He mentioned something called a one-shot circuit (I think he said) but he wasn't sure of the terminology and it is a while since he's done stuff like that.

I know another ATX motherboards without this option in BIOS. With one friend we prepare hardware patch independent on MB. It's based on single chip processor. We used this "complicated" solution because if you start ATX computer you need push power on button for time less then 4s. When you push power button longer, computer power down. Processor control timing. If you want describe functionality exactly I can try. We use this in two servers many years without problem. Now I have 5 or 6 pieces of this card. If you want I can send it to you. But I don't know the cost. It was about 60 US$. Ivo Hazmuk Open-Source software isn't a matter of life or death... ...It's much more important than that!

Indeed, I think you need to generate a pulse after the power comes up and that pulse has to stop within a specific time. But the most luxury version of doing this is a NE555 ($0.12) used as a mono-flop (I know it sounds funny, but that's what it's called when you only want to generate a single pulse.). http://www.national.com/ds.cgi/LM/LM555.pdf (page 7 top left) Connect an RC combination to pin 2 (C to +5V and the R to ground). Calculate this to fall down to 2/3 of +5V which starts the timer. The other RC combination can be choosen so that it gives a 1s pulse according to the diagram on the right. You might need to invert the output, depending if you power switch connects to ground or to +5V. Hope this helps, Axel.

Actually, I tried it, and maybe on the wrong day, because I had compilation issues enough to make me a little nervous about following a thread like current at this point in time... Might I ask, when are we going to see the Radeons / DRI support in the RELEASE branch? I know there is the 'device radeondrm' in the NOTES file for RELEASE, but it didn't work, which is why I went to Anholt's page.

It has two 1GHz P-III processors, 1Gb of RAM using 4 identical Samsung ECC registered DIMM's. There is an el-cheapo VGA card for console access, two sound cards, and a digiboard (which is about to be removed). Both the server, and all network equipment, were protected by a 750VA SmartUPS (which ensures the power is fairly clean). The network gear is still protected by the 750VA UPS, and the server is on a 650 VA Back-UPS Pro. (read on, the server was moved) I have a 450W power supply in the chassis. The machine was intended to be a combination file/media server, X app server, home automation controller, and compile mule (being the fastest FreeBSD box in the house). When I first built it, I ran 4.7-REL on the system. It also ran folding@home when it was idle. This was a very stable setup for months, even during (and after) a heat problem (the A/C failed to come on). The onboard thermal alarm was going off, but the system was still running - so I manually halted the OS, and powered it down. It ran non-stop for 3 months after this without so much as a hiccup. I mentioned this because the symptoms are frightengly similar to thermal problems I've seen on other systems. Anyway, the overheat scared me enough to start reshuffling things. The closet it was stored in averages ~85degF, as long as the A/C is working - it got above 95deg when the A/C failed. I didn't want to risk the machine melting down should the air go out again, so I replaced the home automation system portion with a dedicated ITX based system, and moved the server to a cooler room, with much better ventilation (average temperature was 10degF cooler). (as a bonus, the closet temperature dropped as well - without the server, it runs about 80degF) OK - so, while I'm shuffling everything around, I figure it would be a good time to upgrade the OS. I did a binary upgrade to 4.8-REL, installed KDE 3.1 (to replace the icewm/mozilla combo), and upgraded a few other packages in the process. And now it is locking up... No kernel panics, no beeps, nothing. It just stops. I've actually been typing in a remote xterm, and it's stopped in mid-word... I've checked the temperature in the room, and in the case - and both are well within tolerance. I can't check the chip temps, because the ServerWorks LM78 setup isn't supported in FreeBSD (yet?), but they don't appear to be to warm to the touch. Heck, the environment is actually better than it was before! Since the machine was physically moved, I checked the obvious. I reseated all of the DIMM's, PCI boards - even the CPU's. I checked all the fans to make sure they were still functional (they are). The machine appears to be fine physically. Although I can't check after boot, I used the BIOS to verify that the power supply voltages were OK as well (they were, though the 12V line had dipped .13V to 11.87) The 5, 3.3, 2.5 supplies were spot on at 5.07, 3.34, and 2.51. Apparently, the -12 and -5 weren't deemed important enough to monitor. So, in summary - The differences: 1) Room temp dropped from 85degF avg to 76degF avg. System spent 8 months at 85degF (ambient air temp) 2) Went from 4.7-REL to 4.8-REL. System did not lock up in 4.7, despite adverse conditions - does lock up regularly in 4.8 even with more ideal conditions. 3) Starting serving up KDE 3.1 instead of icewm/mozilla/xterms (fairly significant increase in network IO) Although I'm looking for help, I'm going to try "downgrading" the server to 4.7-REL, and see if that improves the situation. I'm also considering pulling the drives out, and loading Linux on it, so I can monitor the LM78 subsystem, and put it under some extreme load. I'm also looking at reducing the load, by stopping folding@home. It ran on the system the entire time it was in the closet, but I'm desparate to stabilize this box. My suspicions, in order; Power supply - even though the air from the vent isn't unusually warm, this smells (so to speak), like a power problem. I REALLY wish I could access the voltage monitoring stuff. This board can monitor damn near everything, but FreeBSD doesn't support the monitoring hardware) Oh well, looks like it's voltmeter time. One or more CPU's are overheating under load, and some internal thermal protection circuit is kicking in (natually causing the system to halt) I would imagine that this, combined with a quirk in the kernel, is causing this. My guess would be that CPU0 is crapping out, and since the kernel can only run on the first CPU... RAM - I bought the best I could afford, but it seems like a likely suspect anyway. This seems unlikely, though. The board has reported exactly 2 ECC "problems" in nearly 8 months in the BIOS log. However, it hasn't been independently tested. As an aside, I know Linux users have a tool to read the ServerWorks LM78 monitoring system. Is there anything in the works for FreeBSD support? There are monitors for every voltage on the PSU, fan speeds, temperatures etc - just sitting there waiting to be accessed. As a SECOND aside, does anyone know of a reputable power supply vendor? I'm willing to spend some cash for a high quality PSU - just as soon as I find one. The current suppply is an Antec 450W.

This board has one RS232 port (sio0), and one CIR/FIR port (sio1). I have disabled the onboard sio1 in the kernel due to the lack of hardware support. Since the system was intended to be a home automation controller, a SIIG 4S low-profile PCI 4-port serial board was installed. This board uses the cyber8000 chipset, and is operated by the puc device driver. There is an APC SmartUPS attached to port 1/sio1, a CM11A on port 2/sio2, and an AprilAire 8870 thermostat on sio3. All three devices can send data unitiated. Port 4/sio4 is not attached to anything. >Description: The puc device driver appears to issue silo overflow errors if a device is physically attached to a port, but there is no software agent "listening" to the port. I discovered this while setting the system up after the initial install, as the devices were physically attached before the software had been fully installed. I noted a large number of silo overflow errors on the console while installing the software, so many that I had to switch to a secure shell connection on another system to get any work done. I also noticed that the silo overflow errors only appeared on ports that had devices attached, but that the controlling software hadn't been loaded yet. Since I installed the hardware first, and went back later and configured the software, I started out getting silo overflow errors for sio1,2, anda 3 - but not 0 or 4 (0 being the built-in com port, and 4 being unpopulated) As I started loading the daemons for these devices, the silo errors went away for those ports. i.e. After installing upsd, I quit getting silo overflows on sio1, and likewise, when I installed the thermostat daemon, I quit getting them on sio3. Heyu, a CM11A listener daemon, cleared up sio2. Later, after a reboot, I discovered heyu wasn't being loaded when silo overflow errors started occuring on sio2 again. Like clockwork, starting the daemon stopped the errors. Also, the errors don't appear to be related to system load. All of this occured before the system software was fully installed, so the load average was near 0.0. Later, while compiling a new kernel, the load average rose to 0.6 ~ 0.8 - and the silo overflows didn't reappear. NOTE 1: In the process of ironing this out, I added the PUC_FASTINTR, and PCI_ENABLE_IO_MODES options to my kernel. I did not attempt to install the bug fix mentioned in pr40636, as I have determined that the SIIG card is not sharing an interrupt with anything else. (it's all by itself on IRQ 12) NOTE 2: All of the software involved was set to open /dev/cuaa(0-4). In most cases, a symlink was used. (i.e. /dev/statnet -> /dev/cuaa3) This isn't critical per-se, as it doesn't cause data loss, but it does result in a very full syslog. My syslog rolled over 8 times in the space of a day due to the messages. (I was in the 22000 times neighborhood within a day). Due to the heavy load on syslog, and the fact that other messages are obscured in the white-out, I marked this bug as serious. >How-To-Repeat: To repeat this, install a serial device that transmits data on its own (such as the CM11A, a modem set to auto-answer, etc), but don't open the port in FreeBSD. As the device sends data, silo overflow errors will show up in dmesg for that port, and that port only. Start up minicom/tip/whatever, and open that port. The silo overflow messages will stop. Unload the program, and they will start again. >Fix: I'm not a kernel hacker by any means, but it seems that the puc driver should either ignore or supress FIFO warnings when the port isn't "opened".

However, even though it has a scsi cdrom, I ended up installing via FTP. The system would lock up right after "Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle"... Also, I wanted to install 5.0 and I could not go beyond starting shell on vt0 and the system woudl lock up. You do have to set the primary OS as Unixware7.1 to be able to install 4.x Good Luck!

I want to install 4.7 on it, but I keep getting "Unexpected EOF" errors if I try to boot the kern.flp disk and I can't seem to figure out how to get it to boot from the CD-ROM. It can apparently be done, as Compaq recommends such a procedure in some of their FAQ's for other features. What am I missing?
