I would like to recommend an AMD 785 board. Specifically the GIGABYTE GA-MA785GM-US2H, as its only $70 ($85 when not on sale) USD which isn't exactly that much for a relatively good motherboard. The board doesn't work out of the box with coreboot with similar boards selected nor officially supp

[coreboot] [superiotool] Fix VID / SPI registers for F71889

2010-11-04 Thread Neo The User
Hi, The SPI should be on 0x8, not 0x7, as that is the VID. I double checked the datasheet and came across this while working on the coreboot port for my board. This is a follow-up for the initial F71889 support for superiotool. fix-SPI-VID.patch Description: Binary data -- coreboot mai
