PCMCIA card (modem) and SuSE 10.1
by patheve2 25 May '06

25 May '06

Hello all I have installed the new SuSE 10.1 AMD64 on my Asus laptop L5D. The SuSE 9.2 AMD64 is still running on it. I know that it was very difficult to use my PCMCIA cards, but with the right tunning in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts and config, all goes right, in particular with my OneCom modem. But with SuSE 10.1, I have a problem with this card : well recognized (according to pccardctl) but no device given at boot system (NB : the /etc/pcmcia/config.opts is the same as for the SuSE 9.2 and this last one gives /dev/ttyS4 at boot). What do I have to do for getting a device ? As for information, an Asus WL-107g wifi card is well recognized and the module rt2500 (compiled from source CVS) is well loaded : it seems that there is no problem with some PCcard. Thansk for your answer

Okay, it was just a thought. > As I mentioned in my last mail, it seems to be a problem with > the cpu-freq driver for it does not report the current freq . No, the problem is that the powernow-k8 driver attempts a transition and fails with the pending bit stuck. I'll queue this for debug. -Mark Langsdorf AMD, Inc.

No, powernow-k8 should work if your machine doesn't have problems. Your machine has problems. Big problems. What are you running on? It looks like your machine is coming up in an illegal state (fid 0xe with vid 0x2). The driver tries to change the frequency, but the transition never completes. The driver ends up on a locked state after retrying the transition 100 times. It also looks like there is something wrong with the _PSS table that PN! uses to get the frequency and voltage data. If you don't have the latest BIOS, you may want to upgrade and see if that fixes anything. -Mark Langsdorf powernow-k8 maintainer AMD, Inc.

Opteron vs Celeron-D EMT64
by pierre 20 May '06

20 May '06

Dear Digiterati We've spent several months modifying our legacy Solaris code (apps and drivers) to work on Opteron motherboards using SuSE10. Now the project manager said: Take a look at these other Intel motherboards using the Celeron-D (341) (because they're cheaper) http://indigo.intel.com/Syndication/DistributeModule.aspx?a=55&m=154&l=1&pp… Googling around I read claims and counterclaims stating that neither AMD or Intel has "true 64-bit", whatever that means. Can anyone point me to an unbiased site that would explain the differences clearly? TIA & cheers --
