Excellent tip, thanks!
I have been running my EPIA 6000 on CURRENT with an add-on ATI PCI
video card because I couldn't get the built-in one to work with the
standard XFree86 load. Thanks to your point, I'm now running the
XFree snapshot on the built-in CastleRock. I had to add into my
kernel:
options INET6 #IPv6 communications protocols
to get X11 to work -- it complained about inability to open an IPv6
socket otherwise.
One oddity: the text is noticeably smeared on my LCD versus text when
using the ATI card. I'm running at the LCD's native 1280x1024
resolution. Same cable as when I used the ATI card. Poor analog
circuitry?
> sound works too, y'normal pcm(4).
Hmmm, I see this in dmesg at boot:
pci0: <multimedia, audio> at device 17.5 (no driver attached)
but there's no /dev/pcm devices. There's also no /dev/MAKEDEV in
FreeBSD-5.x so I'm confused about how I talk to this audio chip. Any
clues?
FWIW, I'm running diskless but don't see that should be a problem.
Thanks.
PS: Sorry if this is a bit off topic, 6000 vs 10000, but I figured the
issues would be the same.
