Lester, are you using the HDMI video connection? HDMI uses a different code path for detecting and setting up an attached display, so that could possibly explain the variance between you and Andy. Does D2500HN have two different video subsystems by any chance? It's crazy but happens quite often when there's a builtin GPU in the chipset and then the manufacturer decides to put in a discrete high performance GPU. In that case, sometimes there's a hardware switch (a jumper, or, e.g. on my VAIO laptop, an external switch) or a BIOS setting that selects the primary GPU. -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

OK follow-up on this since I wasted most of yesterday playing with it :( DN2800MT will install XP, Probably Vista, W7 and Linux with graphics switched off. Enabling graphics in Linux seems to be hit and miss but basically there are no drivers for the Intel GMA 3600 graphics for Linux or XP but XP will run. D2500HN is similar except THAT will not install XP, so is restricted to W7. Get a blue screen crash with every install disk I have here. Bottom line ... don't think the GMA 3600 based motherboards are worth wasting any time on ... They may be a bit more expensive, but I think I'll switch back to the VIA ITX boards as at least they still support W2k as well and Linux support is more open. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

It's stable, it's with good quality, and it's cheap. Releasing HDL of the FPGA design is another issue. IMHO, it doesn't help too much for the development by releasing the HDL source code. AFAIK, the hostmot2 logic is only maintained by mesa; there is no community for developing it yet. We have plan to sell our HDL design with whole verification set.

Re: [Emc-users] Intel DN2800MT - possible new LinuxCNC star?
I was in the market for a mini-ITX motherboard at the beginning of the year. I wanted that board, but it hadn't been released yet. I ended up getting a D2700 based one... http://www.mitxpc.com/proddetail.asp?prod=MBNC9KDL2700 I don't remember the numbers, but the latency was good. I did have some problems getting some device drivers working - things like the Sensor monitors. The CPU/Chipset was too new for the 10.04 kernel to know about them.

If you read the hardware reviews you can generally figure out the junk power supplies from the good ones. The junk power supplies will barely make it beyond the warranty period. If I put a PC into a machine, I don't want to get a call back on that PC for at least 2 years, preferably 3 or more, otherwise my reputation takes a hit and it jeopardizes future work. Most of these PCs are never turned off. Intel is warranting their boards for 3 years now, so if the power supply holds up, all should be good for at least 2 years after the initial burn in. The wide range input DC supplies are quite expensive. http://www.mini-box.com/DC-DC For instance the M3-ATX and the M4-ATX are nice power supplies but they are pricey at $69 to $89. I have an M4-ATX and while it does work well, it is still $89. The M3-ATX is good for 6-24 volts with 6 volts only being ok for short periods (while cranking the engine). This new Intel board is good for 8-19 volts DC +/-10% and normally a car with a good battery and starter will not drop below 8 volts while cranking so this board could be run directly off a car electrical system without a power supply, and it should survive an engine startup - saving $69 for the M3-ATX. I think that Mini-box just lost a bunch of business! That board is also very low power. A lot less than a D525MW. Good for mobile applications.

While Ubuntu Linux 10.04 can be installed, functionality is limited and hardware graphics acceleration does not work. Because there are no drivers for the PowerVR graphics chip, the OS uses the generic VESA driver for X.org, thus Graphical User Interfaces still function, but users may experience sluggish performance, limited screen resolutions, video tearing, and playback for fullscreen or high-definition videos will stutter or freeze. There are no available drivers for Windows 7 64-bit operating systems. As a result, Logic Supply does not currently offer support for Windows 7 64-bit or Ubuntu Linux 10.04 installed on Cedarview boards or guarantee functionality of these operating systems on boards purchased by our customers. This restriction may change as newer driver updates are released, and we’ll do our best to stay on top of it." --- As ever, a new generation of cpu technology brings a new generation of problems. Note that earlier 32-bit Windows and all 64-bit Windows are excluded also, so it's not just Linux-fanboys they are diss'ing. The nettop market is lucrative but it sure is tough on the rest of us. Since I often run my boards with a remote X-server this GPU may not be an issue for me. Comparing the DN2800MT block diagram with that of the D525MW, I don't see great differences in the layout of the blocks. Both use the NM10 Express chip set and a W83627DHG-A based Legacy I/O controller (which drives the parallel port) although the brand name of this controller changed from Winbond to Nuvoton. The PS/2 keyboard/mouse ports have disappeared and they've reverted to an onboard parallel-port header (ala the D510MO). The loss of the PCI slot has already been mentioned. I don't like to count my chickens before they're hatched, but it looks like this board may be acceptable within the limits of PCIe.

I really like the wide voltage range on the power supply input. That would be good for battery powered apps.

[Emc-users] Intel DN2800MT - possible new LinuxCNC star?
Hi everyone, I just ran into Intel DN2800MT mini-ITX motherboard. http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/motherboards/desktop-motherboards/desktop-board-dn2800mt.html It has HDMI, LVDS (can be useful for LCD panels), LPT header, two miniPCIe slots (SSD and wifi if necessary) and built-in PSU! (8-19V DC input required). PCIe slot is suitable for 6i25, which is probably very new, it's even not in MESA's price list, I guess the price is compatible to 5i25's. Very thin board, all looks perfect. Costs $105. But the most important question is: Anyone tested the latency?
