I have installed 9.0-RELEASE on this motherboard with the following brief results: $ cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 64bit 2009061500/amd64) Installed devices: pcm0: <HDA Realtek ALC892 PCM #0 Analog> (play/rec) default pcm1: <HDA Realtek ALC892 PCM #1 Analog> (play/rec) pcm2: <HDA Realtek ALC892 PCM #2 Digital> (play) pcm3: <HDA Realtek ALC892 PCM #3 Digital> (play) pcm4: <HDA Intel Cougar Point HDMI PCM #0 DisplayPort> (play) $ The devices /dev/dsp0, /dev/dsp1 even play to different audio outputs (front panel and rear panel). However, there are some more or less serious problems: 1. The "green" console screensaver does not poweroff the monitor. It just blanks the screen and sometimes displays white rubbish thereon. 2. It looses one of the HDDs during intensive read/write operations: Jun 2 00:55:33 vas kernel: ahcich1: Timeout on slot 4 port 0 Jun 2 00:55:33 vas kernel: ahcich1: is 00000000 cs 000000c0 ss 000000f0 rs 000000f0 tfd c0 serr 00000000 cmd 0000c617 Jun 2 00:56:48 vas kernel: ahcich1: Timeout on slot 0 port 0 Jun 2 00:56:48 vas kernel: ahcich1: is 00000000 cs 00000001 ss 00000000 rs 00000001 tfd c0 serr 00000000 cmd 0000c017 Jun 2 00:57:20 vas kernel: ahcich1: AHCI reset: device not ready after 31000ms (tfd = 00000080) I shall of course check the HDD and cable, but they worked flawlessly on the previous system. 3. I had to run xorg in VESA mode, because xf86-video-intel-2.7.1_4 does not recognize the video chip on the motherboard on question. That is a pain! mplayer is incredibly slow on all movies. It complains that "your system is too slow to play this" and gives a plethora of obscure recommendations, but I basically thought that the sheer CPU power should be sufficient to play the video. Is there a solution which "just works"? Replacing mplayer with something else? Buying a video card (what model)? -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN sip:sudakov@sibptus.tomsk.ru
