Hi,
We are working with Daniel on Super Micro MB problem. As you suggested,
we ran the utility - pcitweak in order to set I/O base address for PCI
card. We performed it in the following manner:
1. We acquired the information about I/O base address by command
#scanpci -v
following line is information snippet copied from the output of
scanpci -v command.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
pci bus 0x0 cardnum 0x14 function 0x0000: vendor 0x1002 device 0x4752
ATI Mach64 GR
CardVendor 0x1002 card 0x8008
STATUS 0x0290 COMMAND 0x0080
CLASS 0x03 0x00 0x00 REVISION 0x27
APBASE 0x30000000 addr 0x30000000
BLOCKIO 0xffffff01 addr 0xffffff00
REGBASE 0x31000000 addr 0x31000000
BASEROM 0xfffe0000 addr 0xfffe0000 not-decode-enabled
MAX_LAT 0x00 MIN_GNT 0x08 INT_PIN 0x01 INT_LINE 0x10
SPARSEIO 0x2ec Block IO enabled Disable 0x46E8
---------------------------------------------------------------------
2. We used pcitweak to modify I/O base address by
#pcitweak -w 00:14:0 -h 0x14 0xff01
#pcitweak -w 00:14:0 -h 0x16 0xffff
3. After doing this, we tried running Xwindows but alas, faced the same
problem as we had before.
We are just curious to know whether is this the correct way of changing
I/O base address for PCI card or do we need to do somethings additional.
Waiting for reply
Thanks in advance,
Vikram, Jing
