Rasberry Pi 4 has no USB
I have an 8GB RPi 4B that I am trying out, but it has no USB response at all. That means that I can't use a keyboard or mouse, but I can use a serial console and ethernet. I can plug any USB device into any port, but there is nothing logged in /var/messages. Running usbconfig as root just reports 'No device match or lack of permissions'. Running 'dmesg | grep -i usb' reports only the following lines: usb_nop_xceiv0: on ofwbus0 bcm_xhci0: irq 81 at device 0.0 on pci2 usb_needs_explore_all: no devclass Running 'pciconf -lv' shows there is a VL805 USB controller present. I tested this with Linux and everything worked properly. This is a new computer that I bought only a couple of weeks ago. Does anybody have any ideas on what this might be, or what I could do to try to figure it out?

Re: top not restoring terminal echo/icanon correctly

What I'm looking for is confirmation from others of the problem. Also very important: please provide uname -a output, specifically world rebuild date. It greatly matters, because a commit was recently done where now -b functions fine (was previously busted in this way), but now -a behaves like -b did. So src/world date matters. All of this is documented in PR 161739. I urge anyone experiencing this problem to read that PR in full, as I spent many hours today writing a debug routine to confirm that top is sometimes not calling tcsetattr() with the original terminal parameters when it exits, and what the condition seems to be. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/161739 Finally, if anyone want to tackle the problem (work out the logic bug that is in there which causes it), please be my guest. I have other things going on right now (doctors appointments) so I don't have as much time as I'd like. Thanks everyone. Thanks to all those who have responded, including kib@. The problem is very odd and appears specific to the bash shell, but only somewhat. Below is a part of what I sent kib@ on the matter. A chart showing what I've found: Location Username TERM Shell bug? = VGA console root cons25 /bin/csh no VGA console jdccons25 /usr/local/bin/bash no SSH (PuTTY) root xterm/bin/csh no SSH (PuTTY) jdcxterm/bin/csh no SSH (PuTTY) jdcxterm/usr/local/bin/bash yes = In the last case (and only that case): if I move my dotfiles (.bashrc and .bash_profile) aside and log in (SSH), top behaves normally. Naturally this made me think something is wonky with my dotfiles!... But the problem *doesn't* happen if my dotfiles are intact and I log in via VGA console (cons25) as myself with a bash shell. So it's almost like there's some bizarre combination of things that causes this problem. I'll continue to try and narrow it down. Boy this is a weird one. In my .bashrc I've been using the following statement to show all arguments and set the update interval to 1 second: export TOP=-a -s 1 Removing this completely and logging back in results in no problems when running top in any way (top -a, top -s 1, or top -a -s 1). However, the problem I describe with icanon/echo never getting restored rears its ugly head when running top -a -b, but only under bash (with no dotfiles too). It never happens under csh. I can also reproduce this on VGA console when logged in (regardless of user), e.g. log in as root (get csh shell), run bash, top -a -b, bam, issue happens. I don't know what's different about the two shells at this level that would cause oddities like this, but um, yeah. *blink* I checked /bin/sh and it shows the same problem as bash, but pdksh and csh don't have any problem. Running stty -a shows that all have -icanon and -echo after runnin top, but csh and pdksh appear to ignore those settings. I have tried in xterm and console and it doesn't make any difference. I tested both on 8.1-RELEASE and 9.0-RELEASE (without ksh).

And new installer is written on shell, so i think its better to fix broken parts then to revert it to outdated and unmaintained code. The major problem I saw is that I couldn't find any mention of the packages on the CD/DVD in any of the menus. Is there really no way of installing them, or did I manage to overlook it?

You see them once an hour because we poll the machine check registers once an hour. If this happens constantly you might have a DIMM that is dying? John: I take it these ECC errors *may* have been happening for some time. What has changed is the OS now polls for the errors and reports them. Yes, we enabled MCA by default in 8.1-RELEASE. Is there some reason that it is only available for i386 and not for amd64? Linux has something called mcelog, for machine check errors, which sounds similar and is available for amd64. You mean like what John used in his earlier post on this thread? :-) http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2010-December/060705.html Oops! Yes, I missed that when I read it. If you're looking for it for FreeBSD, it's available below as a patch to the original (I believe): http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/mcelog/ Thanks for the link. -- Carl Johnsonca...@peak.org ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
