Maybe this will be supported in coming 4.9-RELEASE but this I don't know. I hope someone will correct me if I am wrong, but, as far as I am aware, the Hardware RAID offered by this chipset is not currently supported. Also, there appear to be issues with some SATA disks, the Maxtor 6Y120MO being a prime example. -Ken Stox [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Dedicating an interrupt to a PC-Card slot
Well, I decided to have some fun and see if I could get a Novatel Merlin C-201 wireless modem running under FreeBSD. It seems I have run into a bit of a roadblock. It appears that the C-201 will only speak, through it's 16550 UART, at a speed of 230400. As such it need to have fast interrupt support, which only seems possible with a dedicated interrupt. ACPI and NEWCARD assigns the same interrupt to both of the Cardbus bridges and to other PCI devices. Any suggestions how I might accomplish the assignment of a dedicated interrupt? BTW, this device does work under Linux, Windows 2000, and Windows 98SE.

C++ has a rather high overhead as far as disk space memory goes. I would imagine that 99%+ of embedded systems do not use C++ code except perhaps for a very small amount of the code. FYI, one of the first C++ applications to see the light of day outside of Bell Labs was DMDPI, a debugger for an intelligent graphic terminal ( DMD5620 ). I think that comes close to qualifying as an embedded application. When it is the right tool for the right job, C++ can be the most efficient tool around. When used incorrectly, it can be a nightmare, but then again, so can any language. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
RE: VXA tape drive
I've been using one under 4.2-STABLE, for some time, without problems. On 15-Jan-01 David W. Chapman Jr. wrote: I checked in current with little luck. Does -current support VXA-1 tape drives by Ecrix. The site claims that freebsd does, but the only response by someone that has one says that it won't successfully backup.
