It had been working fine for the last week or so on serial console. I decided to try to get keyboard/video working. I picked up one of those PS/2->USB adapters that handles the USB stuff for the keyboard. I plugged in the keyboard and stuck in an ATI Rage II Mach64 GT card that I had laying around. The machine came up just fine but it kept going to serial console. The video card was detected: Information Menu: Enter command > io I/O MODULE INFORMATION IODC IODC Path Decimal Type Location HVER SVER Vers Dep ------------ ----------- --------------------- ---------- ---- ---- ---- ---- PCI6 10/1/6/0 VGA slot 6 0070 8500 0x01 0x00 I ran a few more information commands and walked away leaving the machine running. When I came back ~15 minutes later, I saw the following on the serial console: Main Menu: Enter command > pcoq000000f0 f000b748 000000f0 f000b74c ior 00001f38 iir 53c63e73 pcoq000000f0 f000b748 000000f0 f000b74c ior 00001f38 iir 53c63e73 (same 4 lines repeating 6 more times) pcoq000000f0 f000b748 000 At this point, the box was locked up (not responding to any input over serial). I shut it off and turned it back on. I hear the fans and HD spinning up, but all I get on the LCD is blocks across the top row, and nothing comes over the serial. I've unplugged the keyboard and removed the video card, but that hasn't helped. Does anyone have any idea what happened or how to fix it? -- Andrew Gaffney http://dev.gentoo.org/~agaffney/ Gentoo Linux Developer Installer Project _______________________________________________ parisc-linux mailing list parisc-linux@lists.parisc-linux.org http://lists.parisc-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/parisc-linux
