Peter, I don't know if this is likely helpful or not, but my Compaq is a
1500c with an ESS ES1869, reporting (on 5.4-RELEASE):

sbc0: ESS ES1869 (Compaq OEM) at port 0x330-0x331,0x388-0x38b,0x220-0x22f irq 
5 drq 5,1 on isa0
pcm0: ESS 18xx DSP on sbc0

I too have in kernel:

 device  sound
 device  snd_sbc # ES1869 (Compaq OEM)

but after much headscratching it only finally worked after adding:

 snd_ess_load=YES  # this fixed it .. bridge driver for ESS

to /boot/loader.conf.  My soon to be built 5-STABLE kernel will include
also 'device snd_ess' directly, and I'm expecting that to work too.

Indeed; I'd spent days googling around lists and pages, at last found:

http://gerda.univie.ac.at/freebsd-laptops/index.pl?action=show_laptop_detaillaptop=496

about the 1750, which was wrong (for the 1500c) about the device hints -
for unbridged devices, says sound(4) - but the needed clue for loading
both snd_sbc and snd_ess.

  snd_ess(4) implies that all three drivers are needed but snd_sbc(4)
  has no reference to it - which is what confused me.

snd_ess(4) has been updated then; at 5.4 it didn't mention snd_sbc.

Building a 5-STABLE world right now, I'm a bit curious as to which of
the more recent sound stuff has found its way into 5.5 .. hi Ariff!

The easiest (and most reliable I've found) method to determine which
sound driver(s) is needed for a particular sound card is:

# kldload snd_driver
# cat /dev/sndstat
read the text to see what driver(s) it loaded
# echo 'snd_driver_load=YES'  /boot/loader.conf

snd_driver will load every single sound driver available in FreeBSD,
all at once, and the kernel will attempt to detect every sound chipset
supported by those drivers.

The contents of /dev/sndstat will show which chipset was found, and
which specific driver is is being used (snd_ess in your case).

Putting just that one driver into loader.conf will pull in all the
needed dependecies (like sound, snd_sbc, etc).

Yes, the Supermicro PDSMi supports the IPMI 2.0 module and I can
confirm that it works with the IPMI ported driver from current on
6.1.  The module is optional so you will have to purchase one for
the system, around 0. You will also need the latest BIOS loaded on
the motherboard for it to work.

http://www.supermicro.com/products/accessories/addon/AOC-IPMI20-E.cfm



What about their other IPMI 2.0 cards:
http://www.supermicro.com/products/accessories/addon/SIM.cfm

Specifically the AOC-SIMLP? and what ported IPMI driver are we talking
about? Also does anyone have an IPMI primer, I've never used it
before?


I haven't used the cards listed there so I can really comment on
how well they work or if they work.  I would assume the cards with
their own ethernet jack will work no matter what OS is on the system.
The problems that have cropped up with the integrated or add-in
modules is that the OS network driver can cut off access to the
IPMI module.  For example, the IPMI module with the bge driver use
to do that, not sure if that has been fixed.  I have also noticed
today that communication to the IPMI module is lost when the em
driver initializes the network device and doesn't come back until
the interface is brought up by the OS.  If you have no networking
configured, no network access to the IPMI module. :)

As for the IPMI driver, it is not necessary for the OS to have an
IPMI driver unless you wish to communicate with the card outside
of using the network.  The IPMI driver I am using is in ports/ipmi-kmod
and is a port of the driver in current.  I have no idea if it supports
those cards.

Neat.  Thanks much Freddie.

(No, i don't have any sound driver problems, but your method seems
much easier|lazier than to explicitly search for the sound hardware
 related FreeBSD bits.)

FreeBSD 5.5 (VMware) on Fedora core 5

2006-07-30 Thread Jon Holstrom
Hello,
I am running Fedroa core 5 Dual PIII 800, with VMware server.

I am not sure if or should i install FreeBSD 5.5 stable +SMP kernel!
I am looking at a basic web server config,
Apache 1.3
PHP4
MySQL 4.1
OSCommerce
ProFTP
some sort of mail server also, POP, SMTP.
Its all for the sake of learning it and doing it as of now.

FreeBSD is intalled as a Virutal Machine now.
but after thinking a bit, got stuck with the SMP kernel!

Odd PCI and ACPI messages on 'INSYDE RSDT_000' laptop

2006-07-30 Thread Ed Schouten
Hello,

Last week I got a laptop from a few friends of mine with a broken
screen. I removed the screen from the device and connected a regular CRT
to it to install FreeBSD 6.1 on it for serving as a jukebox (silent,
doesn't consume too much power).

I first tried FreeSBIE 1.1, which just deadlocked during the bootsplash.
After that I downloaded a FreeBSD 6.1 CD. When I boot FreeBSD 6.1
without the ACPI kernel module, it panics (fatal trap 12) right after
probing uhci0. When I boot with ACPI, it boots like it should. Because
the laptop doesn't have a serial connector, I didn't copy the kernel
backtrace. If it is really needed, I'll boot the CD once again and type
over the screen contents.

Anyway, I installed FreeBSD 6.1 on it, with the ACPI module loaded, but
I still get some really strange messages in my dmesg I thought would be
useful to mention:

| ...
| cpu0: ACPI CPU on acpi0
| acpi_perf0: ACPI CPU Frequency Control on cpu0
| acpi_perf0: failed in PERF_STATUS attach
| device_attach: acpi_perf0 attach returned 6
| ...
| acpi_perf0: ACPI CPU Frequency Control on cpu0
| acpi_perf0: failed in PERF_STATUS attach
| device_attach: acpi_perf0 attach returned 6
| ...

And these:

| ...
| pci_link0: BIOS IRQ 11 for 0.2.INTA is invalid
| pci_link1: BIOS IRQ 5 for 0.31.INTB is invalid
| ...
| pci_link4: BIOS IRQ 11 for 1.0.INTA is invalid
| pci_link5: BIOS IRQ 11 for 1.1.INTA is invalid
| ...

The device Just Works at the moment, so I can live with it, but I
was wondering if these messages do any harm. I've attached the entire
dmesg of the device for those who are interested.

Yours,

For a new installation there is really no reason to use 5.5. Use the
