Hi,
I just finished a new round of tests using the unstable
experimental-84-g2f2e2ee release and a Gigabyte G41M-ES2L (Rev 1.1):
works:
- booting Trisquel GNU/Linux from SATA SSD
- VGA output in textmode
- navigating grub menu in VGA/textmode and serial console (although
horribly slow)
does not work:
- internal speaker (does libreboot use beep codes?)
not tested:
- IDE
Overview of different tested RAM configurations:
manufacturer modelno size no works? comment
Samsung M378T2953EZ3-CE6 1GB 1 no freq error
Samsung M378T5663FB3-CF7 2GB 1 yes
Samsung M378T5663FB3-CF7 2GB 2 no hangs 'Done rcven'
Kingston KVR800D2N6/1G 1GB 1 yes
Kingston KVR800D2N6/2G 2GB 1 yes
Kingston KVR800D2N6/4G 4GB 1 no reboot after 'Booting
Trisquel GNU/Linux'
Corsair VS1GB667D2 1GB 1 no freq error
- "yes" means that Trisquel GNU/Linux successfully booted
- "freq error" means libreboot hangs on "Unsupported CAS & Frequency
combination detected"
- dual M378T5663FB3-CF7 worked using proprietary BIOS
- KVR800D2N6/4G did not work at all using proprietary BIOS, although
listed by Gigabyte as compatible, may be defect
One more interesting note: using experimental-61-g03a48ed the only RAM
configuration that worked was a single M378T2953EZ3-CE6 module. All
other configurations lead to the "freq error". This configuration does
not work in 82/84.
