Re: [coreboot] ARM Veyron Speedy - Replacing 11.6 inch display for 15 inch

I have access to the schematics for Speedy... I'm not allowed to share them, but I'm happy to look up something specific for you if it helps. Nico is right, only one of the four DP lanes coming out of the SoC is routed to the connector. If your panel requires more than that, you're probably SOL.

Re: [coreboot] ENE KB3940Q-A1 embedded controller custom firmware

Thanks for the advice Mike, but I think you misunderstood the issue. I wasn't talking about the internal memory of the EC, but rather about accessing the EC firmware in SPI flash via an external SPI flasher. The problem is that the SPI flash power rail is the same as the EC chip, so as soon as we

I can't understand as to why doing a git commit requires your "real" name and while I could simply make something up I instead I wish to protest this policy and hear out a justification for it. This is a project with a main goal of improving security however having your name on the internet

Thank you for your results, Georg! Although this "adafruit board" costs twice more ( $15 ) and has a microUSB instead of a sturdy full-sized one, your report gives me more confidence in the success of the idea. Perhaps this information could be somehow included to the coreboot wiki, especially to

Re: [coreboot] $7 cheap FT232H board as EHCI debug dongle for coreboot - would it work?

These digikey cables do not explicitly mention that they have FT232H chip, also they cost $23.5 minimum while aliexpress board costs $7 - 3x times less expensive On Mon, Mar 5, 2018 at 7:06 PM, Vadim Bendebury wrote: > Did you consider one of these: > >

Did you consider one of these: https://www.digikey.com/products/en/cable-assemblies/smart-cables/468?k=ftdi+uart==ftdi+uart=316=ffe001d4=0=0=1=25 there are many options, it is important to match the cable's VDD to your board's (1.8V vs 3.3V), the rest of the parameters is way less important.

[coreboot] AMD Geode LX800

Hi, I know the AMD Geode LX is a very old platform but still active. When SeaBIOS looks for a PCI VGA device to run a Video-BIOS option ROM (AMD), it looks for i/o and memory enabled in PCI command register. But it finds only memory enabled and i/o disabled. So the option ROM will never be

Hi Kyosti, Thank you very much for your reply! I will try to get a couple of these FT232H boards: perhaps just 1 is required for the successful setup, but these boards are not common (just 15 or 20 search results) so maybe its' a good idea to take 2 ;) If this FT232H board works, it would be an
