Has anyone got the on-board Crystal Audio card to work in FreeBSD/Alpha -- and if not, are there any cards one can reccommend that might work? Also, I was hoping to use a PCI IDE card in the machine. Although I have a SCSI hard disk in it, I also have a fairly large IDE disk I would like to be able to take advantage of. I think PCI IDE controllers _should_ work in the machine, but I wonder if there is any card in particular someone can reccommend.

In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Qlogic 210X && 220X cards are supported. The support is better in FreeBSD 4.0, but some time within a week or so, 4.0 Qlogic support will be synchronized back to the 3.X and 2.X. Local loops are supported- this gives you a fat SCSI bus up to 125 targets. If you enable SCSI_ISP_FABRIC, fabric support is enabled (via FCP-2 Simple Name Server protocols). This works better for the Qlogic 220X cards, but QLA210X have been known to work on fabrics if you use Brocade switches. The approach taken here is that the first 124 devices found on the fabric are logged into and specifically bound to SCSI 'target' ids 129..254. There is no support at this time for larger fabrics or explicit WWN/PortID binding. I strongly recommend either a switched or a switched-loop environment if you're going to be running a reliable SAN. Feel free to contact me directly (I'm the HBA author) for more on this. As far as I know, there *is* additional FC/SAN support (via DPT's I2O controllers) but is only available for FreeBSD 2.X. -matt On 28 Feb 2000, Chris Shenton wrote: > We're looking into a farm of servers feeding off a SAN, connected by > FibreChannel.

This has been a problem for a while! It's really hard to showcase FreeBSD, or even Linux, on Qlogic stuff if you can't point the end user at where to buy Fibre Channel or Ultra 3 cards! Their North American distributor used to be EBV Electronics- that seems to be gone. Bell Microelectonics has them, but they don't sell to end users. I'm seriously considering getting a California Reseller's licence just so I can buy from Bell- it's a pain to deal with the tax collection, but this is getting ridiculous. If there's a lot of interest in FreeBSD-hardware for this, I'll move it up my list of things to do. I'm getting about 3-4 queries a month on "where to get" so far.

Also the Entrega USB -> Serial adapter can do 230K as well but you need a driver (I have one started, flow control isn't tested and needs some finishing). Doug A.
