I saw the same (well your point 2 that is), left it, and it seemed gone after a roll back to the prvious sup. But I could see nothing obvious in a diff; apart from the way pccardd gets inited. I.e. the Cardmem is now set to default rather than to a specific value.

Well, dmesg didn't show the irq used for anything else, so I thought it was free. However, now that I've changed the irq from 10 to 11 it works. I suspect that there may be some device (sound card?) in the laptop that is using the irq, but which I don't have configured. Anyway, thanks for the pointer, it seems to be working just fine now. -- Jonathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-mobile Mon Oct 12 12:10:19 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA15820 for freebsd-mobile-outgoing; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 12:10:19 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from resnet.uoregon.edu (resnet.uoregon.edu [128.223.144.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA15739 for ; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 12:10:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by resnet.uoregon.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA03339; Mon, 12 Oct 1998 12:09:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Date: Mon, 12 Oct 1998 12:09:52 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White To: Sebastien GIORIA cc: Gregory Neil Shapiro , freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Neomagic (was: Is this possible) In-Reply-To: <19981009103619.A19456@francenet.fr> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org On Fri, 9 Oct 1998, Sebastien GIORIA wrote: > Le Fri, Oct 09, 1998 at 12:04:47AM -0700, le clavier de Gregory Neil Shapiro ecrivait: > > >> I've got a Dell inspiron 3200 with a neomagic chip.

My 128ZV will go to 16bpp fine. I'd suggest following the official development track since NeoMagic has seen the light and is providing specs to XFree86/SuSE.

If/when I get to it, I'll be using the PAO code as a basis for the work, but it will be different enough in that I hope it will contain less ifdef's and such and alot less 'workaround' code that more often than not is not a workaround for buggy hardware, but working around buggy workarounds. :( Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-mobile Tue Oct 13 09:25:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA12177 for freebsd-mobile-outgoing; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 09:25:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from arthur.axion.bt.co.uk (arthur.axion.bt.co.uk [132.146.5.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA12155 for ; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 09:25:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from guilhem.ensuque@bt-sys.bt.co.uk) Received: from rambo (actually rambo.futures.bt.co.uk) by arthur (local) with SMTP; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 17:23:57 +0100 Received: from mussel.futures.bt.co.uk (actually mussel) by rambo with SMTP (PP); Tue, 13 Oct 1998 17:26:55 +0100 Received: by mussel.futures.bt.co.uk with Microsoft Exchange (IMC 4.0.837.3) id <01BDF6CD.A35F6AF0@mussel.futures.bt.co.uk>; Tue, 13 Oct 1998 17:19:30 +0100 Message-ID: From: Guilhem Ensuque To: "'hosokawa@jp.FreeBSD.org'" Cc: "'mobile@freebsd.org'" Subject: Can FreeBSD+PAO run on PII Mobile Date: Tue, 13 Oct 1998 17:28:00 +0100 X-Mailer: Microsoft Exchange Server Internet Mail Connector Version 4.0.837.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org hello I am planning to do some work on FreeBSD 2.2.6 on a Dell latitude Notebook that has a 300MHz PII mobile chip.

However, this card is not dictributed in the UK by DatronTech (Linksys's UK distributor). Therefore I have a couple of questions: 1) Does anyone who lives in the UK know where I could get hold of a bunch of LinkSys 10/100 PC Cards ? 2) There are a couple of Fast ethernet PC Cards that are readily available from retailers, however I do not know whether these would work fine under FreeBSD (They are not mentioned in the PAO list). Do you think they could work OK ? : 3Com Fast Etherlink 16-bit PC Card 3C574-TX (however, does it work with a 32 bit PC Card bus?) 3Com fast Etherlink 32-bit XC Card 3C575-TX (what does the XC mean ?) Xircom CE3 10/100BaseTX Xircom CBE CardBus 10/100 Base TX 3) Another stupid question, relating to the two latter cards: one is Card Bus, the other PCMCIA: wot's the difference ?

The power supply became unplugged and it appears to have suspended or something similar when the batery died. So far, so good. However, when I got it power again and woke it up, it paniced saying a block on the disk was bad (a block with a large negative value, unsigned it would be way beyond the end of the disk). Then it tried to reboot and fails with the message: Can't find file boot.config Can't find file boot.help When I press return at the boot: prompt, I get: Can't find kernel I have never tried to make this machine sleep while using 2.2.7. 2.2.6 was destroyed in a similar manner on this machine when I closed the lid. Older versions of FreeBSD went to sleep with no problems. I had planned at some point of looking into the problem, but never had time to deal with the damage that might occur (maybe I've got the opportunity now :-). Can someone tell me what device to try to fsck to recover what I can (if I can recover anything)? This machine was configured with a single partition in ``dangerously dedicated'' mode. Booting with a rescue floppy (Sorry, no CD on this ancient beast) I could not find anything in /mnt2/dev which seemed to contain a filesystem. Is there a kernel or other config I missed relating to power management that says, ``don't clobber the filesystem when you go to sleep''? :-) Luckily, my last backup was made a couple of hours before the machine died, and I'm restoring to another machine as I write this.

When was this option added, I didn't see it in the LINT config file. Is this a 3.0 option or a 2.2.x option? I am getting ready to upgrade my laptop and I can try it then. C.

(Meaning it is trying to write the contents of RAM out to the disk.) If it is and you have not reserved space for the memory dump, the BIOS will simply overwrite whatever happens to be stored in that area of the disk, which could very well be some or all of your root partition. I have never had to do this myself so I can't really help your there, but this might put you on the right track for a solution. __________ Rick Siple ricksiple@mpainc.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Kenneth Ingham [SMTP:ingham@i-pi.com] > Sent: Thursday, October 15, 1998 11:29 AM > To: freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: 2.2.7 and suspend or sleep > > I have (had?) a 2.2.7 system from the CD on a Dell Latitude 486-100. > The power supply became unplugged and it appears to have suspended > or something similar when the batery died.

I'd like to go ahead and modify the current cnw driver or write a new one for the AirSurfer Plus cards (these are the 802.11 descendents of the Xircom/Netwave cards). My questions are: 1. Should I work to make this part of PAO? Or is the some other/better alternative? (This question is not a judgement of PAO at all, it's just my ignorance, which I am attempting to assuage.) 2. Any opinions as to wheter or not to modify the PAO cnw driver or to start over? 3. Any examples/pointers? I've done a little kernel hacking, but not a ton. As part of some wireless research projects here on campus, someone else has made the AirSurfer Plus work with Linux: http://ipoint.vlsi.uiuc.edu/wireless/asplus.html Thanks, Jon -- Jon Dugan | Network Engineer, NCSA Network Development jdugan@ncsa.uiuc.edu | 57C CAB, 605 E Springfield, Champaign, IL 61820 217/244-7715 | http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/people/jdugan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
