(Judging from the code, VIA seem to like moving this functionality around). Having added recognition for my device, it probes: viapropm0: SMBus I/O base at 0x400 viapropm0: port 0x400-0x40f at device 17.0 on pci0 viapropm0: SMBus revision code 0x0 smb0: on smbus0 I'm not sure if "SMBus revision code 0x0" is a sensible value or not and xmbmon claims SMBus isn't working and reports silly values it claims to have extracted via I/O.

We need to upgrade and change our server hardware and I'm looking for new high-performance server platforms for P4 XEON systems. I have two mainboards in my focus, one is the Intel SHG2 and the other one is the SuperMicro SUPER P4DL6. The SuperMicro seems to be a very nice mainboard, but when I read the technical specs, I realized, that it is marked as DDR200-only main PCB, the Intel SHG2 is said to be capable to utilize DDR266 memories. In one of the famoust German computer magazines (c't) I read a test and they tested the SuperMicro with PC2100-2033 memory, so this implies that the SuperMicro also utilize DDR266 memory? Does anyone out here has experiences with both mainboards using FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE or FreeBSD 4.6.1? We have an AMI Enterprise 1600 RAID controller (PCI 64/66) that should be swapped over to the new machine in spe, so I need some tips and hints. In the past, FreeBSD has developed into a 'incredible' stability when using SCSI and SMP, I hope I can participate from this stability when changing our hardware 'on the fly'. Thanks a lot for your help in advance, Oliver -- MfG O.

Although just mentioning "USB" and "webcam" in the same sentence as "FreeBSD" is enough to know that you're heading for stormy waters, I've gotten further than first expected. The USB controller is working and dmesg yields an identification of the camera attached to /dev/ugen0 (by identification, I mean it at least displays the=20 string "Logitech Camera"). Having installed SANE,=20 "sane-find-scanner /dev/[ugen0,usb,uscanner0]" says it finds an unknown USB scanner. The problem is where to go from here. The way I see it, there are two possibilities: 1. Find some webcam software that knows how to use ugen. 2. ugen, being a general USB device driver, is too general for any practical use of the webcam.=20 A specialised (non-existing?) driver for the QuickCam Web is needed. Possibility nr. 1 would lead to immediate success. Nr. 2 would most likely mean I abandon the project and wait for my new PC to arrive and I'll install the camera on Windows. As far as software goes, I've been looking at GnomeMeeting, which is the one I would really like to use, and xcam that came with SANE just for testing. Neither with any good results. GnomeMeeting only lists bktr[0,1] and meteor[0,1] as valid video devices. xcam doesn't list any and won't open ugen0. Any thoughts or suggestions? - IT To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
