On those diffs are patching against to RELENG_5 branch. I didn't check my patch again, but it might be not match with it anymore if someone recently update ata stuff in RELENG_5. It should work fine if you patch it by hand, thought. Current I just pull the ata-chipset.c,v 1.85 and ata-pci.h,v 1.33 from 6.0-CURRENT branch and put (overwrite) them in my RELENG_5 source and build/install. > Any ways much thanks. Having sound and ata133 on it is nice. :) NP, good to see the sound works for you. It was hard for me to test, because I am deaf. I had to bug my brother and sister by borrow their ears when I ran my CD driver with their music CD. They was like 'err, why do you need to get the sound fix?' and I told them that I just wanted to add it in FreeBSD to have the more hardwares support. :-) Also, I want to see my dmesg and pciconf look pretty. :-P Cheers, Mezz -- mezz7 at cox.net - mezz at FreeBSD.org FreeBSD GNOME Team http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/ - gnome at FreeBSD.org From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Sep 6 16:13:05 2004 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 D020416A4CE for ; Mon, 6 Sep 2004 16:13:05 +0000 (GMT) Received: from smtp2.volja.net (smtp2.volja.net [217.72.64.60]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8DF9043D1D for ; Mon, 6 Sep 2004 16:13:05 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from huko8@volja.net) Received: from daniah8z5d8sqt (vo25-79.dial-up.volja.net [217.72.79.25]) by smtp2.volja.net (Postfix) with SMTP id C739D14262 for ; Mon, 6 Sep 2004 18:12:59 +0200 (CEST) Message-ID: <000801c49363$3dafe700$194f48d9@daniah8z5d8sqt> From: "huko" To: Date: Sun, 5 Sep 2004 18:13:10 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2600.0000 X-Mailman-Approved-At: Tue, 07 Sep 2004 11:52:41 +0000 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.1 Subject: A problem by the configuration 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, 06 Sep 2004 16:13:05 -0000 Sorry to vaste your time, but I have a problem and I don=B4t know how to = fiksed it.

I wonder if this is the best way to disconnect an external firewire disk (Lacie) that's used as an external backup? First I do the backup then I run the 'sync'-command in order to write down any data still in the buffer. After that I umount the disk and then I turn of the power and disconnect the disk from the computer. Before the backup starts I connect the drive and then I simply mount it. Is there any better way to do it or is this safe?

We had our server stolen 1 month ago and it was easy to restore the backup from the external harddisk (and it was fast too!). Our previos server had some low-budget (almost no-name) firwire controller. Now we run on the internal fw-controller on an Asus P4C800-E Deluxe. Older versions of BSD doesn't support Firewire (I know my old 4.6.2 does not). I'm unsure from which version it became supported.

I am running into a fairly serious problem, however - the system does not have any PS/2 ports, only USB. FreeBSD sees a phantom keyboard on kbd0 when the USB keyboard is plugged in, and the real keyboard on kbd1. Sysinstall only uses kbd0, however. To add insult, the keyboard works just fine in the loader, however as soon as the kernel starts loading the keyboard is ignored. I've tried mucking with the BIOS's USB Legacy Keyboard option, but it doesn't alter FreeBSD's behavior any. I've also tried using device hints to disable atkbd.0 and atkbdc.0, however they also seem to be ignored. In desperation, I set up a serial console to try and run the installer that way. The system boots, however nothing happens after this point: md0: Preloaded image 4194304 bytes at 0xffffffff808e4ba0 ad0: 78533MB [159560/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100 ATAPI_RESET time = 50us acd0: CDRW at ata1-master UDMA33 Mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0 Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- David Aquilina dwaquilina@gmail.com From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Sep 10 20:47:20 2004 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 E6BB116A4CE for ; Fri, 10 Sep 2004 20:47:20 +0000 (GMT) Received: from mail2.speakeasy.net (mail2.speakeasy.net [216.254.0.202]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B994843D4C for ; Fri, 10 Sep 2004 20:47:20 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from jhb@FreeBSD.org) Received: (qmail 10462 invoked from network); 10 Sep 2004 20:47:20 -0000 Received: from dsl027-160-063.atl1.dsl.speakeasy.net (HELO server.baldwin.cx) ([216.27.160.63]) (envelope-sender ) encrypted SMTP for ; 10 Sep 2004 20:47:20 -0000 Received: from [10.50.40.210] (gw1.twc.weather.com [216.133.140.1]) (authenticated bits=0) by server.baldwin.cx (8.12.11/8.12.11) with ESMTP id i8AKlEF1017736; Fri, 10 Sep 2004 16:47:17 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from jhb@FreeBSD.org) From: John Baldwin To: freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.org, David Aquilina Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2004 16:46:43 -0400 User-Agent: KMail/1.6.2 References: In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <200409101646.43669.jhb@FreeBSD.org> X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.63 (2004-01-11) on server.baldwin.cx cc: alfred@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: Installing on AMD64 without PS/2 keyboard 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: Fri, 10 Sep 2004 20:47:21 -0000 On Friday 10 September 2004 04:14 pm, David Aquilina wrote: > Greetings all, > > I'm trying to install FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE and/or the latest 5.3-BETA > on an AMD64 box I have (both releases exhibit the same behavior).

Add a hint to set the flags on atkbd.0 to "1" so it tries to probe the keyboard instead of assuming it is present.

I.e. >=20 > set hint.atkbd.0.flags=3D"1" I've only got an i386 ISO at the moment, but I'd appreciate it if you=20 would try booting the ISO here: http://people.freebsd.org/~brooks/6.0-CURRENT-i386-bootonly.iso.bz2 This adds that flag back to /boot/devices.hints on the install media so you should be able to install. Recent devd.conf changes should let you work in multi-user mode if you manage to get installed. What we really need to do is have keyboard mux in the kernel so we can use all the keyboards by default. For now, we'll have to live with hacks since both modes are useful in different environments. -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.

New system: Asus A7N8X-E motherboard, Athlon XP 2600+ 2 SATA seagate drives Old buslogic SCSI controller with 2 drives, a cd, and a tape. ATI compatible radeon 9000 agp 4x video card The scsi disks have win nt images on them, from a previous system so I can continue running it until I get a new one with both freebsd and nt going off the sata drives. When booted, the nt system runs fine. The BIOS reported devices and FreeBSD 4.10 boot probe (see below), show the scsi device (pci1 at 6.0, irq11), but fbsd doesn't recognize it. Freebsd isn't recognizing the buslogic controller (bt0) device (pci1, device 6.0), the sata device (pci1 device 11.0), or either of the network devices (pci0 device 4.0, pci1 device 4.0). From the archives it appears sata isn't supported in 4.10, or at least the sil 3112a controller, which explains that piece. However, I'm puzzled as to why the scsi controller isn't recognized, given that the bt driver is in the generic kernel on the floppy, and given that it boots ok on nt. The 5 pci slots have shared irqs, and the mobo docs say if the drivers for the devices installed in the pci slots don't support shared irqs, then the slots have to be allocated / left unused so that only one device is present for each shared set. Do the freebsd drivers generally support shared irqs? In particular, does the 4.10 bt driver support them? Assuming the bt0 device is recognized, what is the right thing to feed boot to boot from the CD (scsi device 6)? Do I need to bag 4.10 and go with 5.3 to get this to work? Will 5.3 work with this board? What is the current status of sil 3112a support? Is this motherboard worth using, or should I bag it and get something else? Suggestions for a different socket a + sata mobo? General comments on sata viability? Thanks for any insights.
