I have a similar controller to him, but mine is a VIA VT8233. I've been having problems in 4.4-STABLE (Nov 14) with reading both data and music CD's. The devices probe Ok, and the harddrive works fine, even at UDMA100, so it appears to be CDROM specific. In 5.0-CURRENT, CDs work fine, except for RockRidge CD's (which I assume is a filesystem driver issue in -current). I would just run 5.0, except that there are of course other things which are totally busted. If you would like me to send any system info (dmesg, pciconf, etc) I will gladly do so. I basically cannot use FreeBSD until I get these CDROMs working, and I am getting sick of Windows 98 already. Thank you for your time, and I will be more than happy to help you get a driver working (if you want to that is :-). -Craig _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-hardware Sun Nov 18 22:26:36 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from kechara.flame.org (kechara-p.flame.org [204.152.186.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id B91B037B416 for ; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 22:26:31 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 15044 invoked by uid 235); 19 Nov 2001 06:26:31 -0000 Received: from localhost (sendmail-bs@127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 19 Nov 2001 06:26:31 -0000 Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2001 22:26:31 -0800 (PST) From: Andreas Berg To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Subject: Problems with Hardware Monitoring Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Greetings, I'm trying to get Hardware Monitoring to work on my FreeBSD system but even when I follow instructions, it wont work. The utilities I'm trying to get to work are: consolehm-1.31_1 Console based hardware monitor for FreeBSD /usr/ports/sysutils/consolehm wmhm-1.45_1 WindowMaker dockable hardware monitor for FreeBSD /usr/ports/sysutils/wmhm wmlmmon-0.60 WM dock app to display info from MB power management contro /usr/ports/sysutils/wmlmmon The problems I get are: root@voyager:~> chm Failed to open /dev/smb0. root@voyager:~> wmhm Failed to open /dev/smb0.

If your system does not support intpm(4), try to use /dev/io (-i flag) or check the permissions of /dev/smb0. According to man files I need the following in my kernel: controller smbus0 controller iicbus0 controller iicbb0 controller intpm0 device smb0 at smbus? Since I use FreeBSD 4.4, the above no longer exists in the kernel config, so, I've got these instead (some of them are probably not needed, but I added more and more to see if they where needed but with all these enabled, it still wouldn't work.) # SMB bus device smbus device intpm device alpm device ichsmb device smb # I2C Bus device iicbus device iicbb device ic device iic device iicsmb options HW_WDOG My motherboard is a Epox EP-7KXA and its got a VIA Apollo KX133 chipset.

I'm looking for is a reliable 4.3+ FreeBSD pre-built system with the following configuration: 1) Dual-processor mobo w/Intel processors, at least 933 Mhz 2) at least 1GB memory, 4GB max 3) Built-in hardware RAID (RAID-0 config, this is just for speed), at least 150GB storage 4) Gigabit ethernet (copper), preferably Intel Pro/1000 5) 1U or 2U form factor is acceptable In terms of the RAID, it has to be capable of greater than 25 Megabytes per second sustained writing until the drives are full. Also, if such a thing exists, I would prefer a "luggable" form factor. In other words, something convenient to carry on planes, cars, etc, but more rugged than a PC. Within these constraints, my priorities are: 1) Price 2) Performance 3) Reliability 4) Prettiness If anyone can send me information on this type of system, it would be greatly appreciated.

Try to install x11/XFree86-4 from ports. Unfortunately, ATI has several versions of the Rage128/Rage128 Pro chip, and some recent ones are not recognized by XFree86 4.1.0. If this is your case, then you could try to set your exact chip version in /etc/X11/XF86Config (ChipID, ChipRev). You could also download (via CVSup) and build the "current" version of XFree86 4.x. It's quite easy; the instructions are detailed in the XFree86's WWW site. -- ****** Jose M.

I've not seen any desktop wireless ethernet cards. What you generally have to do is buy a pcmcia card and an ISA - PCMCIA converter for the PC. I have been warned in the past to use ISA and not PCI. I'm not sure if PCI is supported yet. Getting it all going is really easy. I went with Lucent Orinoco silver cards. The main difference (that I know of) between the silver and gold cards is encryption strength. As WEP is broken anyhows, no big deal :) Just use a ipsec tunnel.

Unfortunately, the tower is a dual processor box, and that does NOT work with the PCMCIA code. Sigh. That should, however, be fixed in 5.0, whenever that work is completed. The problem with ISA is that ISA slots on new boards are as rare as hens teeth in a mature bird...

I think most, if not all, PCI adapter cards are working as of 4.4-R. Well, at least my miniPCI card works now. IIRC, the wireless cards are around US$60-$70 and the adapter cards are somewhere around $50. So its almost just as cheap to go with a dedicated basestation. Of course, I haven't looked at prices in a while, so they could have gone down. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
