| Hey Rene,

Second thing I may try is to increase the value of
libfreeipmi/src/ipmi-kcs-api.c:IPMI_KCS_SLEEP_USECS to something
higher. Because MSI's BMC is slow in I/O.
Why don't we make it a command-line option for all in-band tools?

IBM e325 BMC firmware has lots of bugs.
I got bmc-info to work inband. SMBIOS reports that BMC is memory
mapped, but it is really io ports based. I also found that GNU
FreeIPMI was checking for SMBIOS record length to be 16 bytes which
should be = 16 bytes.
You should also unload OpenIPMI
A.B.,
Was your fix to manually code the io-port address, register spacing,
etc. into bmc-info to get around the SMBIOS broken-ness? If that's the
case, then we should add options to bmc-info and all the inband tools to
allow the user to manually set them on the command line (or via config
file)
And I'll add that we can easily document these workarounds into the
manpages/docs. Please see how I did the ipmipower manpage for all the
non-compliant vendors I've found.

You can download it from
ftp://ftp.zresearch.com/pub/freeipmi/qa-release/freeipmi-0.2.pre1.diff
Its a patch against 0.2.0 source.
PS: I forgot to tag 0.2.0 as a branch. So I am maintaining 0.2.1 as a
single patch.

I got it. Mistake due to API changes.
