[Bug 32968] Re: no support for VIA PT880ULTRA on amd64/xeon
I've forgot to say that I've tested it with Asus P4V800D-X mainboard based on PT880Ultra chipset Pentium 4 32bit (HT disabled) - that one on which I've had problems with Dapper Drake 6.06. -- no support for VIA PT880ULTRA on amd64/xeon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/32968 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm there's now no such issue in Gutsy Gibbon 7.10, Hardy Heron 8.04 and Intrepid Ibex 8.10 (tested on kernels 2.6.22, 2.6.24 and 2.6.27). -- no support for VIA PT880ULTRA on amd64/xeon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/32968 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 32968] Re: no support for VIA PT880ULTRA on amd64/xeon
The 18 month support period for Feisty Fawn 7.04 has reached it's end of life - http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-7.04-end-of-life . As a result we are closing the linux-source-2.6.20 task. Also per Ben's last comment I'm closing the 2.6.15 task as well. Would anyone be able to confirm this is still an issue with the most recent Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release?

Sorry. A quick run of lspci -vvn in Feisty Herd 4 does show the device id as 0x0308, so maybe that means the kernel is properly detecting it as a PT880 Ultra, and something else is causing both Edgy and Feisty to hardlock in X. -- no support for VIA PT880ULTRA on amd64/xeon https://launchpad.net/bugs/32968 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 32968] Re: no support for VIA PT880ULTRA on amd64/xeon
This still isn't fixed as of Feisty Herd 4. It also affects the x86-generic kernel. The VIA PT880 Ultra chipset basically isn't supported by Ubuntu because of that. I've got an Asus P5VDC-X with VIA PT880 Ultra and an ATI Radeon 9700 Pro. Edgy and Feisty don't even bring up X when using the ati or fglrx drivers, and they both hardlock after a few minutes of using the vesa drivers in an X session. I disagree that it is wishlist priority. This is now a fairly common chipset, and should be properly supported. The problem is that in include/linux/pci_ids.h, the Ultra is different from the regular PT880. The only way to make it work is when the PT880 (not the Ultra) is defined as 0x0308. Maybe Linux never properly detects an Ultra as an Ultra, even if you have one, so it uses the PT880 define directive, which has to be 0x0308 to work. So in include/linux/pci_ids.h, #define PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_PT880 0x0258 #define PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_PT880ULTRA0x0308 should actually be #define PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_PT880 0x0308 #define PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_PT880ULTRA0x0308 I'm not a developer, so I don't know what's going on. I just know how to compile a kernel, and know when it does and does not work. Does this fix break a regular VIA PT880 (non Ultra)? I have no idea. But some Ubuntero love on the problem would be greatly appreciated. ** Also affects: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- no support for VIA PT880ULTRA on amd64/xeon https://launchpad.net/bugs/32968 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I decided to buy pci expressz card - everything works fine, including 64 architecture.

I forgot to mention that I have this problem in 32-bit architecture - P4 with HyperThreading enabled. My system is Kubuntu Dapper Drake 6.06 (with all updates) - (2.6.15-26.46 and 2.6.15-26.47).

I've got the same problem with AGPGART on my PT880Ultra chipset Asus P4V800D-X mainboard. It needs a small fix in via-agp.c It's fixed in 2.6.17 kernel: commit 7dd1d9b85cfb63eebf48fa13d3c5d25a3deb3a25 Author: Magnus Kessler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon May 22 10:53:10 2006 +0100 [AGPGART] VIA PT880 Ultra support. This patch enables agpgart on a Via "PT880 Ultra" based motherboard (Asus P4V800D-X). The PCI ID of the PT880 Ultra is 0x0308 instead of 0x0258 of the PT880. The patched via-agp passes testgart.
