Which G4 are you using. My dual 800 is an origianl Apple board from a
Quicksilver and is running in a Digital Audio. I've been able to
get the L3
running in os 9 with CPU Director and in Panther with Sonnet's
Cache program.
At the moment I am totally stumped about getting the L3 running in
Tiger. I've
spend a huge amount of time on it. I expect it has something to do
with
differences in the firmware between the Quicksilver and th Digital
Audio.
If you are running the Dual 800 in its original machine, it is
Apple's problem
and they should fix it. (Good luck.) If not, I haven't found the
answer.
If you want technical details, I've dug pretty deep. Mostly seems
to have to do
with CPUDirector not being able to find the cache memory. The
developer tool
CHUD /Reggie which looks for these things too, seems to find all
the right
addresses but still can't enable the cache.
I believe he's talking about me and mine.
I recently installed an Apple DUAL 800 from a Quicksilver into my
Digital Audio, which is running Tiger. The system sees the L2 but
not the L3 cache.
I've installed CPU Director, and the Sonnet Cache program. I even
discover I could use CHUD/Reggie to look at the L3 registers. Many
of which are set, but the L3 is not enabled.
