I have already spoken with Warner Losh about my little "project". It will start on that day and end around June 9th, although I'll still have some free time to work on cardbus afterwards. So, this is a formal request to anyone who would like to see support (not guaranteed) for their Cardbus card in 5.0 and possibly 4.1 (or, more likely, 4.2). If you have a Cardbus card with technical documentation (or know someone with the docs that will send a copy to me without a NDA), then by all means send it to me. (Reply privately and I'll give you my postal address). Now would be a good time to send these things, since you won't have to pay expensive shipping to get them here overnight (or whatever). For references, you can ask Warner or my mentor, Bill Fumerola , both of whom can explain the project to some extent.

They are somewhat interrelated and we need to have a good foundation for the 16 bit stuff before going off and doing the 32 bit stuff. Otherwise I would have been working on that.... I have the specs that you'll need to do work on the cardbus side of things. In addition, there's at least one effort underway in Japan to do this same sort of thing, plus efforts underway to do things to the pci bus to make it easier to have cardbus things happen. Those need to be in place before we start on drivers. Most of the cardbus drivers for cardbus cards will be relatively simple attachment drivers. Separating out the pci attachment, writing a cardbus attachment, that sort of thing. Other, more complex drivers will need to be added in time as well. If I sound too grumpy, it is because I'm catching up on my email from my vacation and have been sitting in a car for 9 hours...

Sadly, all that's there is in src/sys/dev/pccard and src/sys/dev/pcic. Briefly, it is better because it handles multifunction cards and it handles them all in kernel mode.

It is a Pentium 233MMX machine with an Intel 430TX chipset. The BIOS is Phoenix BIOS 4.0 Release 6.0, and initially the version was 2.03, but I recently upgraded to 2.30. I guess this is the manufacturer's version. The following symptoms were observed regardless of the version. My machine constantly panics whenever I try to perform any action with respect to APM. That is, it panics on booting when apm -e enable is executed from rc.i386, it panics if I do apm without options (having apm_enable='NO' in rc.conf), etc. Under 3.4-STABLE I could boot and do suspend/resume by closing the cover, but I used to get panics whenever I tried to get some status information with apm, xbatt, etc. My kernel config has: device apm0 at nexus? flags 0x20 but I have also tried: device apm0 dmesg shows: apm0: on motherboard apm: found APM BIOS v1.2, connected at v1.2 and when I ran apm, I got in the console: Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: kernel trap 12 with interrupts disabled Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: fault virtual address = 0x9ccc Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: fault code = supervisor write, page not present Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: instruction pointer = 0x58:0x2f9d Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: stack pointer = 0x10:0xc61a9ccc Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: frame pointer = 0x10:0xc61a9cce Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: code segment = base 0xc00f0000, limit 0xffff, type 0x1b Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 0, gran 0 Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: processor eflags = resume, IOPL = 0 Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: current process = 229 (apm) Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: interrupt mask = none Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: trap number = 12 Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: panic: page fault Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: syncing disks... 10 7 Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: done Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: Uptime: 2m24s Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: dumping to dev #ad/0x20001, offset 196608 Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: dump ata0: resetting devices .. done Apr 30 20:17:54 laptop /kernel: 64 63 62 61 60 59 58 57 56 55 54 53 52 51 50 49 48 47 46 Using kgdb I get: laptop# gdb -k kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.2 GNU gdb 4.18 Copyright 1998 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

The mahine isn't using the audio part of the neomagic chipset. The yamaha chipsets are not supported since yamaha are being obnoxious and won't release specs.

Nope, it panics too. Besides the man page clearly states that the apm device attaches to nexus, although LINT seems to imply that it isn't necessary to define where apm attaches (sorta PnP).

Note that sound is not yet supported. Also, i haven't yet gotten PCCARD ethernet running, but that's just becuase my card isn't currently supported (Xircom 10/100, i bought it separate, so i don't know if the card they bundle would work or not). I imagine that if i had a supported card it wouldn't be a problem betting it working. APM works fine. Don't know if it's dockable or not, but i imagine it probably is. Can't think of any real problems with the machine. I spent about 2000, for a pentium III 500, 64 Megs of Ram, and a 4.8 gig hard drive. If i had it to do again i might get more ram, just so Quake 3 would run smoother under windows. -garrett x----------------------------------------------------------------------x | rooneg@rpi.edu garrett rooney | | http://www.rpi.edu/~rooneg unix geek | |----------------------------------------------------------------------| | unrequited love is neat because it lasts so much longer - w. t. c. | x----------------------------------------------------------------------x To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-mobile Tue May 2 9:15:24 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from scaup.prod.itd.earthlink.net (scaup.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.121.49]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A9ECD37B8BB for ; Tue, 2 May 2000 09:15:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Don@Silver-Lynx.com) Received: from Silver-Lynx.com (pool0219.cvx8-bradley.dialup.earthlink.net [209.178.170.219]) by scaup.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA11338; Tue, 2 May 2000 09:14:14 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <390EFF13.174BCF35@Silver-Lynx.com> Date: Tue, 02 May 2000 09:15:15 -0700 From: Don Wilde X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (Win98; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Nick Barnes , freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Subject: Re: new notebook References: <15557.957275750@raven.ravenbrook.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Nick Barnes wrote: > > I'm buying a new notebook to run FreeBSD.

Any ideas? just another data point. i had exactly the same problems with a dell inspiron 3800 and freebsd 3.4.

Unfortunately, the awi in 5.0 seems not to configure the card correctly, whereas the 3.3-PAO one did (last I checked, which was a while back). It does seem to probe and identify the card correctly otherwise, however. Attached please find the results of dmesg, and the output from pccardd during the resource alloc/etc. Got any suggestions for getting this up and running? I'm using the default pccard conf files from -CURRENT of a week or two ago. I can upgrade to more recent if you think that would help. Thanks!

On a "chembook 7200" laptop, a fairly vanilla pentium box. I'm a complete freebsd neophyte, but am expert on unix generally. I'm having problems with a D-Link DFE-650 (10/100Mbit card). I've done what research i can, but haven't found much information on fbsd 4.0 and pccards. The PAO home page is completely unhelpful. Does this mailing list have some other home page? I'm running the standard pccard.conf which says: card "D-Link" "DFE-650" config 0x20 "ed0" ? 0x10 insert logger -t pccard:$device -s D-Link DFE-605 inserted insert /etc/pccard_ether $device My /boot/kernel.conf has: di sn0 di lnc0 di le0 di ie0 di fe0 di cs0 en ed0 (though i think that has no effect) I'm dual booting with w2k, which can use all the hardware fine. (At least windows makes a good device probe....) w2k says gives the card irq 10 and uses an io range of DFE0-DFFF, at least according to "Device Manager". w2k was giving the infrared port irq3, but i disabled that in the bios just to eliminate it from consideration. The best I've been able to achieve with freebsd is link layer lights, and the ability to ping myself. But I can't ping others. More info... At boot time i get: pcic0: at port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000 irq 10 on isa0 pcic0: management irq 10 pccard0: on pcic0 pccard1: on pcic0 # why is pccard1 reporting on pcic0? sio0: type 16550A sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 ... ed1 at port 0x240-0x25f irq 3 slot 0 on pccard0 ed1: supplying EUI64: 00:e0:98:ff:fe:74:c7:1f ed1: address 00:eu:98:74:c7:1f, type Linksys (16 bit) May 2 17:41:16 mdachemw pccardd[46]: pccardd started Then i do ifconfig ed1 192.168.0.4 netmask 255.255.255.0 and it spews on the console: ed1: starting DAD for fe80:000b::02e0:98ff:fe74:c71f ed1: DAD complete for fe80:000b::02e0:98ff:fe74:c71f - no duplicates found ed1: device timeout Then i can ping myself (192.168.0.4) but not anyone else (such as the gateway 192.168.0.1). I tried setting irq 15 at the top of pccard.conf, instead of letting it give it irq 3. Also irq 13. Neither irq 13 or 15 is mentioned in any other freebsd boot message, so i assume they are conflict free. I also tried irq 10 because w2k gives the card that irq. But then i get: driver allocation failed for D-Link(DFE-650): Device not configured I'm guessing that either there is a driver bug or i've still got an irq conflict somehow? I'm assuming there is no utility that will simply print out all current irqs and io ranges in use by a system? It seems like such an obvious thing, but it must be hard or someone must have done it. Some other non-crippling but annoying problems: - I have to do a full power cycle (not just a soft reboot), or the card gets no power. - If I pull it out and put in while running, neither event is detected. - At boot time, the pccard is not detected when rc.network is run, only afterwards when it is too late. I'm also confused about ed0 vs. ed1: even though my /boot/kernel.conf and my /etc/pccard.conf mention ed0, i see ed1 as a boot message.

It is an entire GSM Mobile Phone on a PCMCIA card. (CIS Tuples follow at the end) However, I need some help getting it working on FreeBSD. In the CIS tuples, it claims to be a 16550 UART, but there are no 'configuration' entries with typical 'block start' base addresses (eg 0x3f8, 0x2e8) There is just the 'default' block which decodes 4 address lines, with a config entry at 0x1f6.

Dell Inspiron 7000 has been no trouble for me (as evidenced by the fact I'm using it to type this email under FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT), but that model's been obsoleted by newer versions these days. Your main concern will be which video card and networking card you get. My 3Com 3CCFE574BT works under -CURRENT and should also work under 4.0. My I7K has an 8MB ATI AGP Mach64-based Rage LT Pro, which works with XFree86 3.3.6 using the Mach64 driver. I didn't really try, but I don't think this card is supported in accelerated mode under XFree86 4.0. -- Will Andrews GCS/E/S @d- s+:+>+:- a--->+++ C++ UB++++ P+ L- E--- W+++ !N !o ?K w--- ?O M+ V-- PS+ PE++ Y+ PGP+>+++ t++ 5 X++ R+ tv+ b++>++++ DI+++ D+ G++>+++ e->++++ h! r-->+++ y?

I am currently running 4.0-STABLE + XFree86 4.0. Had to recompile a few X11 apps after the upgrade, but other than that it has be working well. 4.0-STABLE give you support for the USB floppy and the souund side of the NeoMagic chip. As for docakable, depends on what you want. If you just want to attach an external keyboard, mouse and monitor, the machine comes with a small port replicator that you would use for that (no PS/2 connections for keyboard or mouse, USB only) NOTE: Port replicator is a bit of a misnomer, it is more like a port connector. There are no serial/parallel/monitor ports on the notebook, only on the port replicator. So if you need to connect to a printer, you have to carry the port replicator with you. This has never been an issue for me (thanks to the built in ethernet). As for the machine its self, PROs 10/100 Ethernet built in. Works great under FreeBSD Light weight (I carry it on the bus every day) 1024x768 display. Works well with XFree86 (16bit colour depth) CONs WinModem (sigh!) Celeron processor (I think the new ones are PIII) GlidePoint (you might consider this a PRO) 1 Type 2 PCMCIA slot. (I would gladly have given up the Memory Stick slot to have a second PCMCIA, but the built in ethernet makes up for it.) I would buy another one. -stacy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-mobile Wed May 3 17:36:18 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk (nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk [193.237.89.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0710237BEDF for ; Wed, 3 May 2000 17:36:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from nik@nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk) Received: (from nik@localhost) by nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk (8.9.3/8.9.3) id BAA12988 for mobile@freebsd.org; Thu, 4 May 2000 01:18:32 +0100 (BST) (envelope-from nik) Date: Thu, 4 May 2000 01:18:31 +0100 From: Nik Clayton To: mobile@freebsd.org Subject: Bag recommendations. . .

I spend a lot of time in the air, and I found I prefer a backpack over anything else. I can carry a bunch of other stuff, and it doesn't look like a laptop bag. Wear it like it was designed to be worn (over both shoulders :-) and you'll hardly notice it. I'm looking for a similar solution for my cameras, but I want to pad them a bit better...they don't stack as nicely as my laptop.

I think it's Targus that made the bag I use. It's a full size backpack - not light, but very spacious, and importantly, distributes the weigth. I use it for carrying the laptop while I'm on the motorcycle. Wife liked it enough that she got one for her laptop as well. I can carry pretty everything I need in the one backpack. It also doens't look entirely like a laptop bag.. which makes it less conspicuous at the public transit stations..

My old backpack got stolen last year, so i had to look out for a new one. That one is from 'Tatanka' and got a padded panel for the notebook. In front is one panel where i put my cables, another panel in front stores paper crap. Even another one stores chaotic stuff. 2 small ones store pencils and keyrings. It seems to be very robust, i use it for ~1 year now and it shows no signs of usage. I just browsed around a bit and the eastpak PC Pak'r looks very similar. I didn't find a tatanka website though :( bye, alex -- alexander goller alex@vivien.franken.de I know how to spell `banana', but i don't know when to stop.

Here's what I use -- and it's one that does not look like boring, men-in-black, military-issue gear, with "steal me" written all over it (see the big caveat below, though): http://www.llbean.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/CategoryDisplay?cgrfnbr=14955&cgmenbr=1&parentCategory=3897&shop_method=pp&sc1=SHOP&sc2=Sporting_Gear_Apparel&sc3=Camping_Hiking_Gear&sc4=Backpacks&sc5=Campus_Packs&itm=Campus_Computer_Organizer_Leather_Bottom&BI=30&MG=49&DC=15&SC=10&MC=10 However, I don't know about the availability in the UK; they do have a phone number for ordering from the UK, though, and so that may be a good sign. The backpack's very roomy (the main compartment is around twice the size of the laptop compartment), and it's pretty well-designed. The shoulder straps are well padded (and have bits of anti-slip material on them), and there's even a padded carrying handle at the top. I like the way the laptop compartment is NOT against my back (the larger, main, compartment is), but some people may not. Best of all, it does NOT look like a laptop bag, and the price is reasonable (US$69 -- US$59 if you get the non-leather version). It's a bit big as book backpacks go, though. However, one caveat is that the laptop compartment is on the small side (see the web site for dimensions). I have a Dell Inspiron 7500 laptop, which is among the larger monsters out there, and my Dell does not (technically) fit into the laptop compartment. However, by putting the laptop sideways into the compartment, I can get it to "fit". Unfortunately, this does means that only around 2/3rds to 3/4ths of the laptop is in the padded laptop sleeve, and the rest of the laptop isn't really "protected". However, this doesn't bother me because the "unprotected" part is at the top of the backpack, and I'm fairly careful with how I carry it, even in airports (also, I'm usually not in situations where the backpack gets banged around a lot). This will be a problem for some people, though. I once weighted my backpack w/laptop & junk, and it came out to be over 25lbs (11.3kg). I could never carry this with a shoulder bag.

I just changed the speed to 19200 in ppp.conf. The down side is the cost of the cable and the windows software that is cool but you may not use.

I've got a VAIO F270, his is a F290 (I think). Mine runs 3.2+PAO, his runs a very up to date -current, so we don't think it's release specific. On my desktop system (P200 w/ 64MB RAM, bunch of Netscapes and Xemacs open, SCSI disks, 3.4-stable) I can cd doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/handbook make book.html and things remain relatively snappy. By that I mean the focus follows to other windows promptly, simple shell commands run fine, I can open up new xterms running Mutt with only a little bit of lag. Conversely, doing the same thing on the laptop (P333 w/ 64MB RAM, 1 xemacs, 1 Netscape, IDE disks, 3.2+PAO) I can do the same thing and the system effectively becomes unusable. The mouse cursor is sluggish, if I shift the pointer to another xterm it takes seconds (five or more) for the hollow cursor to fill in, indicating the focus has shifted. Also (and this is my favourite benchmark) keystrokes get lost. You can see this in vi by opening a document and using the cursor keys to scroll through it. You get spurious 'B' characters inserted when the keyboard driver misses one of the extended characters returned by the cursor keys. I don't have a desktop system with IDE disks to compare this too (in fact, I've never run another FreeBSD system without SCSI disks). Should I expect IDE to have such an impact on system performance? I can run 'proper' benchmarks if people have specific recommendations for ones to use. FWIW, "/usr/bin/time -l make book.html" for one of the documents when this happens prints 47.83 real 0.00 user 45.11 sys 0 maximum resident set size 0 average shared memory size 0 average unshared data size 0 average unshared stack size 6368 page reclaims 2 page faults 0 swaps 0 block input operations 10 block output operations 0 messages sent 0 messages received 0 signals received 24 voluntary context switches 830 involuntary context switches which doesn't look like the sort of load that should freeze a machine.

I don't think there will be any 4.0-PAO floppies. We are busy merging PAO into the main FreeBSD repository. As of recently, there have been a number of MFPAO3's and newcard commits by Iwasaki-san and Warner Losh. If the 3CXFEM656C is a Cardbus card (as I assume based on the last alpha character in its name), then you'll have to wait until we have Cardbus code in the tree (which MAY be in by 4.1, but more likely 4.2). However, if it's anything like the other 3Com cards, writing the actual driver will be easy (what's needed at this point is the base code for pccard + cardbus). So, as soon as we get done with the base code, I'm sure that if someone loans a 3CXFEM656C card, a driver will be written. -- Will Andrews GCS/E/S @d- s+:+>+:- a--->+++ C++ UB++++ P+ L- E--- W+++ !N !o ?K w--- ?O M+ V-- PS+ PE++ Y+ PGP+>+++ t++ 5 X++ R+ tv+ b++>++++ DI+++ D+ G++>+++ e->++++ h! r-->+++ y?

Reply-To: Darryl Okahata Mime-Version: 1.0 (generated by tm-edit 1.5) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Date: Fri, 05 May 2000 17:16:28 PDT From: Darryl Okahata Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, I'm writing some docs on setting up a wireless home lan w/FreeBSD, and I've been running into some strangeness with wicontrol(8). In particular, the wicontrol man page has this note: Note: currently, the field in the structure used to program the key into the NIC is only 14 bytes long, not 16. I'm not sure how this is supposed to allow 128 bits of key info for the gold cards. There is code in wicontrol.c that limits the key to "14 bytes"; however, it appears that the length check is being applied to the length of the key string, regardless of whether or not the string is in hex. In hex, a 14-char limit only allows one to specify 6 key bytes. Is this intentional, or is this a bug? Also, in regards to the mysterious 14-byte limit, check out: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-net/2000/02/04/0001.html It appears that, for 64-bit (silver) cards, you can really only specify 40 (5 bytes) of the 64 bits. Interestingly, for gold cards, an additional 64 bits is 8 bytes, and 5 + 8 gives "13". Add an extra byte for a possible '\0', and you have 14. I wonder if this is what's going on (yuk, this would mean that the sequence number length hasn't increased). -- Darryl Okahata darrylo@soco.agilent.com DISCLAIMER: this message is the author's personal opinion and does not constitute the support, opinion, or policy of Agilent Technologies, or of the little green men that have been following him all day.

This should work with 4.0's ed driver, UNLESS it happens to be a newer card that has an MAC address that the driver doesn't grok. Newer versions of the driver removed the hard coded list of ethernet mac address ranges that it supports. I think this has been MFC'd, but I'm not positive.

I've got the cem56fix re-written (it was actually easy) and the driver dances around abit trying to find a phy but doesn't actually get one. I think that the problem is in the IO space allocation in xe_activate. In cem56fix the IO address is written to a register on the card old: xe_memwrite( scp->dev, DINGO_EBAR0, ioport & 0xff ); xe_memwrite( scp->dev, DINGO_EBAR1, (ioport >> 8) & 0xff ); my re-write: bus_space_write_1(bst, bsh, DINGO_EBAR0, ioport & 0xff); bus_space_write_1(bst, bsh, DINGO_EBAR1, (ioport >> 8) & 0xff); However, EBAR0 always has bits 3:0 set to 0. I need a 16bit aligned io port from xe_activate. How do I do it?
