If anyone is interested, it's yours for the price of (actual) shipping. Some of this stuff might be able to go on eBay (and may, if no one claims any of it), but I'd rather see if any of my fellow FreeBSD users/fans are interested first. 1) Old vinum disk array. Contains 11 Seagate ST32550WD (HVD differential) SCSI hard disks, a 20MB/s HVD/LVD converter, HVD terminator, and beefy power supply. There is a cut out for a 8" fan, but the fan has long since gone out. However, the mounting hardware for the fan and filter remain. I used this in college to store MP3's, and as far as I know, they are still on the array. Weighs approximately 35 pounds - I can probably be talked into breaking this up if you don't want all of the disks, or are only interested in the SCSI converter, etc. 2) 15 meter (yes, meters) HVD SCSI cable. It's long, folks. Originally I picked this up on eBay so I could keep the above array in a different room (for noise reasons). Somewhere around 5-6 pounds 3) CIT 224 serial terminal. Supports VT52/100/200 terminal modes, and can operate (reliably) up to 9600 baud. 19200 is supported, but has problems. I currently use it as a "head" for my headless server, but am looking to replace it with an X terminal that draws just as much juice, and has a GUI :) The keyboard is a tad yellow, but otherwise fine. It's previous life was spent monitoring a router, so there may be some faint burn-in. Probably 10-15 pounds with keyboard. 4) Symbios UW HVD SCSI controller. I'm trying to ditch all my HVD SCSI gear, and this is the last controller on hand. Great if you want the above array, but don't have an HVD controller. It is supported by FreeBSD (works great too) 5) Voodoo 2 3D graphics accelerator - with passthrough cable. Still holds up for older games. I may even have the SLI cable somewhere, though I only have the one card. 6) Digi Digiboard PC/4e with DB9 (male) breakout cable. This is the older ISA version of the card. In excellent condition (was bought new), but replaced with PCI card after a server upgrade. This board is well supported by FreeBSD - it formed the communications portion of a home automation controller for some time. No manuals or disks, though - long since lost in moves. 7) Analog Devices SHARC ez-kit lite development kit. Comes with development board, power supply, and CD-ROM with software. I thought I was going to get into programming DSP's, and bought the kit - but later decided home automation was my thing. Works great, has stereo input and output. Great for home-made equalizers or effects boxes, though it is a tad underpowered. 2-3 pounds (mostly the power supply) 8) Motorola MC68ICS05P microcontroller development kit. Comes with lots of interesting stuff, including the dev board. This part is well supported by free tools, including from Motorola. Perfect for a senior design project - unfortunately, I've already got a MSEE, and I don't plan on using this kit anymore. 9) Paralan NARROW HVD-SE SCSI converter. Mounted in a 5.25" chassis, it allows you to attach normal narrow SCSI devices to a HVD SCSI controller (or vice versa). It is presently configured to terminate, but this can be changed with jumpers. More stuff may be dredged up as I finish Spring cleaning, but that's it for now. First come, first served - and remember, all you have to come up with is shipping. I'd just like to see this gear end up in the hands of someone who could use it.

Not sure if it works, though. The system it was in was dead. I know the mainboard was dead, but I'm not sure if the CPU bought it with the board. Hell, even if it doesn't work, the box is so light it shouldn't cost much to ship. I will ship this with a Heatsink&Fan combo (I know the fan works ;) 11) set of 4 SIMM's (old school, 30-pin). Great for soundblasters with the DRAM sockets on them. Not sure what size, probably 1MB each. 12) 4Mb Compaq RAM card for a 386 laptop. Compaq part# 121127-007, spares# 129947-001. Sad story about this module. I had an old 386 laptop I originally used to write and debug ASM for the M68HC11 in college with. It had this memory card, giving it a total of 6Mb of RAM (whopping plenty for what I used it for). Then, thinking I might find an upgrade, I took the card out - and promptly lost it. Later, I sold the laptop because it didn't have enough ram to boot Linux or FreeBSD. Then, I graduated, and found the card in a bunch of papers in the back of my desk. (sigh> Probably too damn old to be of interest, but it was in a 386LTE. Not sure what other models might use it. Again, first come, first served - and remember, all you have to come up with is shipping. I'd just like to see this gear end up in the hands of someone who could use it.

Not sure if it works 3) Compaq RAM module for 386LTE 4) 4x 1Mb 30-pin SIMMs I've decided to roll the Paralan converter in with the Symbios card, since most of the people asking about it weren't aware a HVD controller couldn't drive a SE/LVD device.

I have didn't experience any problems with the kernel compile, and I used a CPU type of 686 as well. Remember, though; the VIA Cx processors are complete redesigns of the IA32 architecture, and it is quite likely they didn't emulate everything. I wouldn't be surpised if some of the optimizations that hold true on a "real" 6x86 class CPU break on a Cx CPU. By enabling both 586 and 686, you may have turned off the incompatable optimizations. It is strange that the kernel compiled clean on my box, though; given I have an older generation of the CPU. Also, most modern CPU's use the 686 cputype, not just the Pentium Pro's. Pentium 3 and Pentium 4 both use it, as well as the AMD Duron/Athlon CPU's (and I'm sure the latest cores are no different) I believe the 586 class CPU's were retired with the K6-2/3 series, and the first gen Pentium processors, ending with the P5-266. BTW - I figure you must have the M10000 everyone is tooting about. How well does FreeBSD support the video subsystem on that board? Good luck, Seth Henry Along similar lines...

How > well does FreeBSD support the video subsystem on that board? > Good luck, > Seth Henry I'm pushing to mount an ITX C3 board under my drivers seat in my vehicle for video playback. Has anyone tried using the composite video out under XFree86 under FreeBSD? My goals are simple, Motherboard hooked into the video system (Sony XT40v hooked to a video distro amp hooked to the 3 LCDs). I plan to use either a microcontroller that reads the factory steering wheel controls for radio (up/select/down) or just hang the 3 buttons straight off of the parallel port. But the one thing I'm uncertain of is the video. Does the composite output automatically kick in if the video is set to 800x600 or 720x480 or whatever? My goal was a FreeBSD logo desktop with no real window manager, and using the steering wheel controls to select video category (rock, industrial, r&b, comedy, documentary) and up/down for previous / next video file. I found a slick BSD Motorsports sticker from somewhere as well.

Yes, I figured as much. My question stemmed from the fact that the arch is labelled as 'pentiumpro', and I'm definitely out of my comfort level talking about the different levels of pentium and what came first and what came next and who does what and where and how. One thing I haven't tried is leaving out the I586_CPU in the kernel config and seeing if that will result in any changes. Hopefully I won't be shooting myself in the foot -- just compiling right now. (It looks like I just can't set CPUTYPE=i686 in make.conf at this point.) Out of curiousity, is anyone working on any C3-specific optimizations (i.e. CPUTYPE=c3)? > BTW - I figure you must have the M10000 everyone is tooting about. How > well does FreeBSD support the video subsystem on that board? Actually, I don't. The big thing about the M10000 is the Nehemiah core, which I'm also in the midst of picking up. I can post word on it if I can actually find a retailer up here in Canada. I'm pretty impressed with the Ezra core, and since this box is just a home firewall, I don't much care about the lack of a full-speed FPU or any SSE or what have you - so long as it can pass packets faster and do SSH sessions smoother than a Pentium 100, I'm happy.

So, in order to use & compile on the Via C3 Ezra, I need to set CPUTYPE=i586 or CPUTYPE=i586/mmx (both seem to work) in /etc/make.conf, and I need at least I686_CPU in my kernel configuration file. Seems odd to me, but at least it works.

When I run network backups, one of our FreeBSD machines (backup client) get NIC timeouts and warnings from the scsi driver: Jun 3 14:50:12 melon /kernel: fxp0: device timeout Jun 3 14:50:36 melon /kernel: fxp0: device timeout Jun 3 14:51:03 melon /kernel: fxp0: device timeout Jun 3 14:51:38 melon /kernel: fxp0: device timeout Jun 3 14:52:41 melon /kernel: ahc0: Timedout SCB already complete. Interrupts may not be functioning. Jun 3 14:53:12 melon /kernel: fxp0: device timeout Both machines are on a hubbed 100 Mbit/s half duplex network. Looking at the traffic with netstat -d 1, I see that as soon as the traffic increases, there is a timeout and traffic stops, after with the net is reachable again. This goes on and on. It only happens when there is much traffic on both NIC and SCSI, it seems (alas when running backups...) Since there was a second NIC, it tried connecting it to the server using that NIC through a switch, on a private network, but then the machine nearly crashed, or at least came to a grinding halt. It seems, as soon as I pulled the ethernet cable it came back. This happened without any backup running... To me, this sounds like some odd interrupt problem? It is a PCI machine with an Intel ?x440 (if memory serves me right) and dual CPUs 400 Mhz, running freebsd-4.7p2. Any ideas where to look, how to debug or what to do?

Seems odd to me, but at > least it works. I have since found out that this might be because the compiler enables support for the CMOV instruction if CPUTYPE=i686, whereas the C3 does /not/ support CMOV (well, this core doesn't, anyhow). Running the kernel as an i686 kernel works just fine, but compiling it doesn't. I've verified that using 5.1-RC1 results in the same problem.

More information about this motherboard and integrated peripherals list, can be found here: http://www.asus.com/products/mb/socket478/p4p800/overview.htm I am having a problem booting up the CD-ROM on this computer. After the kernel boots up, and then skipping the hardware configuration mode, the kernel boots until it reaches the PLIP secion, where it just waits there for good. The computer doesn't hang as I can press CAPS-LOCK and see it switch lights, but it just sits there without doing anything. There's also no disk activitity that I can see. What I did to try and solve the problem is this: 1) downloaded 4.7 floppies, then tryed to boot from them. Same scenario. 2) disabled nearly everything in the BIOS (serial, parallel, LAN, audio and even USB), but still same problem. 3) tried to boot into CLI mode, then disabled those same devices, but still same problem. 4) removed the LAN cable so it won't probe the network, but still the same problem persists. 5) loaded optimized and default values for the BIOS, but it still didn't help. By the way, I noticed that the kernel doesn't stumble in PLIP always... Since I disabled the parallel port in the BIOS, I noticed that after probing the serial ports, that the computer stopped responding and froze. It means that what comes after PLIP is causing the problem. Anyone knows what's the next hardware or thing that the kernel tries to do after probing PLIP? Anyone has the slightest idea how to debug or solve this problem?

According to the booklet, the NIC is part of the 'nVidia nForce MCP-D' South Bridge chip; and the video is an 'nVidia GeForce2 MX Integrated' in the North Bridge. Here's the boot probe from a GENERIC kernel. (It doesn't id itself as GENERIC because I copied it with intent to tweak; but haven't actually changed anything but the name yet.) Note the several unidentified PCI devices. The Intel NIC and ATI video are add-ins until I can get the on-board stuff to work. After the boot probe, I've included the output from scanpci.
