From d1bb5d6fcc75f07ca6a58b5536906980aff9d253 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Francis Rowe Date: Sun, 19 Jul 2015 00:31:16 +0100 Subject: New board: ThinkPad R500 (experimental) The ich9deblob and ich9gen utilities were modified, so that they support reading and/or writing descriptor images where the GbE region is not defined. These utilities were also re-factored and tidied up a bit. A quick was noticed during the course of this work, in that Compenent 1 Density was being set to 8MiB constantly, even on systems with 4MiB flash chips. Component 2 Density was set statically to 2MiB. ich9gen now sets both to 4MiB or 8MiB, depending on whether building the descriptor for a 4MiB or 8MiB ROM image. There are still some ACPI bugs (see docs/hcl/r500.html), which will have to be fixed upstream. TODO: get hw reg dumps from a factory R500, and compare with the X200 or T400 dumps. --- docs/tasks.html | 36 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 31 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) (limited to 'docs/tasks.html') diff --git a/docs/tasks.html b/docs/tasks.html index d45e2738..3841de4e 100644 --- a/docs/tasks.html +++ b/docs/tasks.html @@ -153,12 +153,32 @@ F2A85-M and E350M1 (libreboot_*_headless.rom).
