When this test box, a Sempron 3400 begins to boot, USB is recognized: OpenBSD 5.7 (RAMDISK_CD) #806: Sun Mar 8 11:08:49 MDT 2015 dera...@amd64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/RAMDISK_CD real mem = 3404660736 (3246MB) avail mem = 3312402432 (3158MB) mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: SMBIOS rev. 2.4 @ 0xf0000 (53 entries) bios0: vendor Phoenix Technologies, LTD version "3.13" date 11/15/2005 bios0: Compaq Presario 061 EL426AA-ABA SR1710NX NA611 acpi0 at bios0: rev 0 acpi0: sleep states S0 S1 S3 S4 S5 acpi0: tables DSDT FACP SSDT SRAT MCFG APIC acpimadt0 at acpi0 addr 0xfee00000: PC-AT compat cpu0 at mainbus0: apid 0 (boot processor) cpu0: AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3400+, 1990.12 MHz cpu0: FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CFLUSH,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SSE3,NXE,MMXX,FFXSR,LONG,3DNOW2,3DNOW,LAHF cpu0: 64KB 64b/line 2-way I-cache, 64KB 64b/line 2-way D-cache, 128KB 64b/line 16-way L2 cache cpu0: ITLB 32 4KB entries fully associative, 8 4MB entries fully associative cpu0: DTLB 32 4KB entries fully associative, 8 4MB entries fully associative cpu0: AMD erratum 89 present, BIOS upgrade may be required cpu0: apic clock running at 198MHz ioapic0 at mainbus0: apid 2 pa 0xfec00000, version 21, 24 pins acpiprt0 at acpi0: bus 0 (PCI0) acpiprt1 at acpi0: bus 2 (P2P_) acpiprt2 at acpi0: bus 1 (AGP_) pci0 at mainbus0 bus 0 pchb0 at pci0 dev 0 function 0 "ATI RS480 Host" rev 0x10 ppb0 at pci0 dev 1 function 0 "ATI RS480 PCIE" rev 0x00 pci1 at ppb0 bus 1 vga1 at pci1 dev 5 function 0 "ATI Radeon XPRESS 200" rev 0x00 wsdisplay0 at vga1 mux 1: console (80x25, vt100 emulation) pciide0 at pci0 dev 18 function 0 "ATI SB400 SATA" rev 0x00: DMA pciide0: using apic 2 int 22 for native-PCI interrupt pciide0: port 0: device present, speed: 1.5Gb/s wd0 at pciide0 channel 0 drive 0: <Maxtor 6L100M0> wd0: 16-sector PIO, LBA48, 95396MB, 195371568 sectors wd0(pciide0:0:0): using BIOS timings, Ultra-DMA mode 5 ohci0 at pci0 dev 19 function 0 "ATI SB400 USB" rev 0x00: apic 2 int 18, version 1.0, legacy support ohci1 at pci0 dev 19 function 1 "ATI SB400 USB" rev 0x00: apic 2 int 18, version 1.0, legacy support ehci0 at pci0 dev 19 function 2 "ATI SB400 USB2" rev 0x00: apic 2 int 18 usb0 at ehci0: USB revision 2.0 uhub0 at usb0 "ATI EHCI root hub" rev 2.00/1.00 addr 1 "ATI SB400 SMBus" rev 0x11 at pci0 dev 20 function 0 not configured pciide1 at pci0 dev 20 function 1 "ATI SB400 IDE" rev 0x00: DMA, channel 0 configured to compatibility, channel 1 configured to compatibility atapiscsi0 at pciide1 channel 1 drive 0 scsibus0 at atapiscsi0: 2 targets cd0 at scsibus0 targ 0 lun 0: <LITE-ON, COMBO SOHC-4836K, SPJ2> ATAPI 5/cdrom removable cd0(pciide1:1:0): using PIO mode 4, DMA mode 2, Ultra-DMA mode 2 "ATI SB400 ISA" rev 0x00 at pci0 dev 20 function 3 not configured ppb1 at pci0 dev 20 function 4 "ATI SB400 PCI" rev 0x00 pci2 at ppb1 bus 2 rl0 at pci2 dev 3 function 0 "Realtek 8139" rev 0x10: apic 2 int 21, address 00:15:f2:76:1d:d0 rlphy0 at rl0 phy 0: RTL internal PHY "VIA VT6306 FireWire" rev 0x80 at pci2 dev 5 function 0 not configured vendor "Conexant", unknown product 0x2f20 (class communications subclass miscellaneous, rev 0x00) at pci2 dev 9 function 0 not configured "ATI SB400 AC97" rev 0x02 at pci0 dev 20 function 5 not configured pchb1 at pci0 dev 24 function 0 "AMD AMD64 0Fh HyperTransport" rev 0x00 pchb2 at pci0 dev 24 function 1 "AMD AMD64 0Fh Address Map" rev 0x00 pchb3 at pci0 dev 24 function 2 "AMD AMD64 0Fh DRAM Cfg" rev 0x00 pchb4 at pci0 dev 24 function 3 "AMD AMD64 0Fh Misc Cfg" rev 0x00 usb1 at ohci0: USB revision 1.0 uhub1 at usb1 "ATI OHCI root hub" rev 1.00/1.00 addr 1 usb2 at ohci1: USB revision 1.0 uhub2 at usb2 "ATI OHCI root hub" rev 1.00/1.00 addr 1 isa0 at mainbus0 pckbc0 at isa0 port 0x60/5 pckbd0 at pckbc0 (kbd slot) pckbc0: using irq 1 for kbd slot wskbd0 at pckbd0: console keyboard, using wsdisplay0
But in the end, the USB appears diabled: uhub1: device problem, disabling port 4 uhub2: device problem, disabling port 1 softraid0 at root scsibus1 at softraid0: 256 targets root on rd0a swap on rd0b dump on rd0b syncing disks... The hardware itself "seems" ok, since I have tried other OS's, Linux, as well as FreeBSD; neither seemed to have issues with this particular system with USB. I have searched on the OpenBSD docs for a obvious solution, but nothing obvious is found. To be sure, accesing USB is not that important to me, but I was curious, if there was some sort of boot parameter which I could set, in order to fully access the USB ports with OpenBSD. Richard
