 Posted: Tue Nov 25, 2003 1:04 pm Post subject: silicon image 3114? |
 |
|
Sto provando il nuovo AMD64, il kernel va alla grande, rileva quasi tutto.
Quel quasi, purtroppo, e' riferito al controller onboard basato su Silicon Image 3114 (che manco il livecd-experimental rileva).
Ho cercato un po' ovunque, pure sul sito di silicon image ma pare che il supporto linux per quel chip non ci sia ancora (vero? falso?)
Voi avete qualche info? |

Lo avevo letto ma il problema è che (se si guarda bene) il primo post mostra il driver sil3112 rilevato come SATA controller.
i casi sono due:
1) meglio che mi dia all'ippica perchè non ci capisco nulla.
2) il kernel della gentoo-experimental per AMD64 non ha il sil3112.
quale e' quella giusta? |

mi sfugge che kernel tu stia usando... già provato il test10 ?
in più mi salta all'occhio questo:
| Garbz wrote: | Sillicon Image have only closed source drivers availuable for linux and thus the only distros which can use Sillicon Image cards properly are Suse, Redhat and a few others.
2 Sillicon Image kernel drivers exists, and one of them is for raid (siiraid.o) but they are primative hacks and don't work very well.
Ur slow speeds are becuase the hdds are in PIO mode 4, as set by the kernel because SATA is NOT supported on this chipset. Setting it to DMA will either a) crash the system or b) corrupt data. so DON'T do it, and don't say u haven't been warned.
The siiraid.o module on several configs fails to detect the ataraid configuration when loading, and from my tests didn't help with the PIO problem.
All i can sugest is that the changelog for Kernel 2.6 - test7 had SATA support written in it but it didn't mention anything about Silicon Image. (finally correct spelling : ) Try this kernel and see if the PIO / DMA problem is solved, but this won't work for the raid configuration.
/EDIT: kernel 2.6 test9 that should be |
/edit: invece a me sfugge che tu stai testando un 64bit!

Spero di esserti stato di aiuto
