The Thinkpad X220 works with its original BIOS so the problem is with your coreboot and not with OpenBSD. coreboot fails to properly report something (most probably some of the ACPI or SMBIOS information is wrong) and because of that every PCI access seems to fail. Most probably pci0 is not setup correctly. We can't help you here, you changed your BIOS with something that is not quite right. You should reach out to coreboot. > A part of dmesg I think may be helpful that I typed over: > > .... > em0 at pci0 dev 25 function 0 "Intel 82579LM" rev 0x05: msiem0: The EEPROM > Checksum Is Not Valid > em0: Unable to initialize the hardware > ehci0 at pci0 dev 26 function 0 "Intel 6 Series USB" rev 0x05: apci 2 int 19 > ehci0: reset timeout > ehci0 init failed, error=13 > .... > ehci1 at pci0 dev 29 function 0 "Intel 6 Series USB" rev 0x05: apci 2 int 18 > ehci1: reset timeout > ehci1 init failed, error=13 > "Intel QM67 LPC" rev 0x05 at pci0 dev 31 function 0 not configured > ahci0 at pci0 dev 31 function 2 "Intel 6 Series AHCI" rev 0x05: msi, unable > to reset controller > "Intel 6 Series SMBus" rev 0x05 at pci0 dev 31 function 3 not configured > "Intel 6 Series Thermal" rev 0x05 at pci0 dev 31 function 6 not configured > .... > > I hope this is enough info and would greatly appreciate it if anyone could > help me out! > > Greetings, > > Thomas > -- :wq Claudio
