Re: MSI K9N6GM vs. ASUS m2a-vm and 4.2
Hi, Since I kinda needed a stable system, I switched to MSI K9N6GM, that has NVIDIA MCP61 chipset. It doesn't at all support AHCI (not that I can tell), but IDE access for SATA is supported in DMA mode (UDMA5). nfe interface also seems to be working. I get 70-80 MBps according to 'dd' (iostat only shows 32MBps) What is the good rate that can actually be achieved on 3Gbps drives? And I still get those no compatible PCI ICU found and unable to fix up PCI interrupts routing messages... It was suggested that these messages can be ignored...

You need to boot -c and disable ahci, change fstab to wd and then compile a kernel with a KASSERT removed (in dev/pci/ahci.c, line 1757) Change fstab again, and reboot. You'll get some ahci warnings, but it will work [ skipped ] Other quirks, the radeonhd driver doesn't work if you (only) use a dvi cable. With an vga and a dvi cable you can run X Well, I was mostly venting here, it's great current supports all this better, but I'd like some peace for this box :) OpenBSD 4.2 (GENERIC.MP) #252: Tue Aug 28 10:53:04 MDT 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC.MP cpu0: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+ (AuthenticAMD 686-class, 512KB L2 cache) 2.42 GHz cpu0: FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CFLUS H,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,HTT,SSE3,CX16 real mem = 2079748096 (1983MB) avail mem = 2003210240 (1910MB) mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: AT/286+ BIOS, date 11/29/06, BIOS32 rev. 0 @ 0xf0010, SMBIOS rev. 2.5 @ 0xfbda0 (48 entries) bios0: vendor American Megatrends Inc. version V1.5 date 11/29/2006 bios0: MSI MS-7309 apm0 at bios0: Power Management spec V1.2 apm0: AC on, battery charge unknown apm0: flags 30102 dobusy 0 doidle 1 pcibios0 at bios0: rev 3.0 @ 0xf/0x1 pcibios0: PCI IRQ Routing Table rev 1.0 @ 0xf5100/272 (15 entries) pcibios0: no compatible PCI ICU found: ICU vendor 0x10de product 0x03e0 pcibios0: Warning, unable to fix up PCI interrupt routing pcibios0: PCI bus #4 is the last bus bios0: ROM list: 0xc/0xee00 mainbus0: Intel MP Specification (Version 1.4) cpu0 at mainbus0: apid 0 (boot processor) cpu0: apic clock running at 200 MHz cpu1 at mainbus0: apid 1 (application processor) cpu1: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+ (AuthenticAMD 686-class, 512KB L2 cache) 2.42 GHz cpu1: FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CFLUS H,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,HTT,SSE3,CX16 mainbus0: bus 0 is type PCI mainbus0: bus 1 is type PCI mainbus0: bus 2 is type PCI mainbus0: bus 3 is type PCI mainbus0: bus 4 is type PCI mainbus0: bus 5 is type ISA ioapic0 at mainbus0: apid 2 pa 0xfec0, version 11, 24 pins pci0 at mainbus0 bus 0: configuration mode 1 (no bios) NVIDIA MCP61 Memory rev 0xa1 at pci0 dev 0 function 0 not configured pcib0 at pci0 dev 1 function 0 NVIDIA MCP61 ISA rev 0xa2 nviic0 at pci0 dev 1 function 1 NVIDIA MCP61 SMBus rev 0xa2 iic0 at nviic0 iic1 at nviic0 iic1: addr 0x2f 00=c0 01=0f 02=00 03=01 04=07 05=00 06=18 07=00 08=00 14=14 15=62 16=02 17=05 NVIDIA MCP61 Memory rev 0xa2 at pci0 dev 1 function 2 not configured ohci0 at pci0 dev 2 function 0 NVIDIA MCP61 USB rev 0xa2: apic 2 int 5 (irq 5), version 1.0, legacy support ehci0 at pci0 dev 2 function 1 NVIDIA MPC61 USB rev 0xa2: apic 2 int 10 (irq 10) usb0 at ehci0: USB revision 2.0 uhub0 at usb0: NVIDIA EHCI root hub, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 1 ppb0 at pci0 dev 4 function 0 NVIDIA MCP61 rev 0xa1 pci1 at ppb0 bus 1 skc0 at pci1 dev 9 function 0 D-Link Systems DGE-530T B1 rev 0x11, Yukon Lite(0x9): apic 2 int 10 (irq 10) sk0 at skc0 port A: address 00:15:e9:bd:30:88 eephy0 at sk0 phy 0: Marvell 88E1011 Gigabit PHY, rev. 5 rl0 at pci1 dev 10 function 0 Realtek 8139 rev 0x10: apic 2 int 11 (irq 11), address 00:0e:2e:5b:45:90 rlphy0 at rl0 phy 0: RTL internal PHY azalia0 at pci0 dev 5 function 0 NVIDIA MCP61 HD Audio rev 0xa2: apic 2 int 11 (irq 11) azalia0: host: High Definition Audio rev. 1.0 azalia0: codec: Realtek ALC883 (rev. 0.2), HDA version 1.0 audio0 at azalia0 pciide0 at pci0 dev 6 function 0 NVIDIA MCP61 IDE rev 0xa2: DMA, channel 0 configured to compatibility, channel 1 configured to compatibility wd0 at pciide0 channel 0 drive 0: HDS722525VLAT80 wd0: 16-sector PIO, LBA48, 238475MB, 488397168
ASUS m2a-vm and 4.2
Hi, Just had some experience installing 4.2 on ASUS m2a-vm... Wasn't pleasant. 3Gbs drive shows max of 0.2MBs tranfer rate (according to iostat). My old drive shows appx 30MB on IDE bus. Tested using dd if=/dev/zero of=file. Any disk access takes forever. Selecting SATA interface as AHCI doesn't work (doesn't show up, or reboots the system when discovery attepmted). Installing 64bit version reboots the installer at the time disks were accessed. There seem to be some problems with built-in card, as in it won't send any packets, at least with 10MB media (re driver). Dunno if I'm doing something wrong, but I'm shutting it down and trying an NVidea based one instead. Thanks, Pawel.

Adding another facility to ktrace - syscall arguments
Hello, It's somewhat bothersome that ktrace doesn't dump the actual values for the structures that were passed in as the arguments to a syscall. All you see are addresses, and may be you can see some translated to names, but that's about it. It would be nice if one can see inside the actual structures, which would be operation specific. Would it be reasonable to add another facility, define the structures for ktr_header.ktr_buf, to be able to accommodate arbitrary structures and the definitions of such, and then start instrumenting the syscalls, where feasible, to dump their arguments into trace stream ? Thanks, Pawel. P.S. Not sure this is the right alias for this kind of discussions...
Support for 3ware 3W 8x00 (8006-2LP) in 4.2
Hi, I was wondering if the 3ware 8006-2LP is supported in 4.2. The http://www.openbsd.org/i386.html page only lists 5x00, 6x00 and 7x00 as supported devices, but the man page says that 8000 is supported as well. (just trying to find a cheap SATA hardware raid card...) Thanks ! Pawel.
Java problems on 4.1

Brother HL-5250DN printer w/OpenBSD
Hello, I spent some time picking a relatively cheap printer that I can also use with OpenBSD, and finally got a Brother HL-5250DN, that can connect over ethernet and has duplex printing. I put together an instruction sheet at http://manticore.2y.net/hl5250dn.html, if anyone's interested. Thanks, Pawel. -- With best of best regards Pawel S. Veselov
Re: Brother HL-5250DN printer w/OpenBSD
Hi, The processing filter for the printer is a pre-compiled Linux binary. The GPL license is because of Brother CUPS and LPD drivers. Thanks, Pawel.

Why did you need to use Linux compatibility layer when CUPS is OpenBSD packages? cups-1.2.7.tgz 1. Install cups 2. Use the default cupsd.conf that came with the package 3. Ran the following two commands /usr/local/sbin/cupsd -c /etc/cups/cupsd.conf /usr/local/sbin/cups-enable That is to hide native commands for lpd. Note lpd daemon is off by default anyway 4. Adjust permissions since the CUPS daemon is not supper user. (For example for my locally attached printer chmod 0666 /dev/lpt0 ) 5. Start cups daemon 6. Go to http://localhost:631 for a printer administration 7. Rest is self explanatory. When directed to download PPD file go to http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting to get the one you need. Why is your how to released under GPL license? Because of CUPS license? -- With best of best regards Pawel S. Veselov
