Re: FreeBSD on the ASUS P8H67-M LGA1155 H67 motherboard
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 cs 00c0 ss 00f0 rs 00f0 tfd c0 serr cmd c617 Jun 2 00:56:48 vas kernel: ahcich1: Timeout on slot 0 port 0 Jun 2 00:56:48 vas kernel: ahcich1: is cs 0001 ss rs 0001 tfd c0 serr cmd c017 Jun 2 00:57:20 vas kernel: ahcich1: AHCI reset: device not ready after 31000ms (tfd = 0080) 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?
