Hyperion Entertainment Message Boards

Not a satisfactory reply, I know, but perhaps if you tried another keyboard? I have a variety of different keyboards here on my eight Amigas and they don't all work on all Sams. Whenever I move machines about, I always forget and end up having to select a keyboard/mouse combo that works with that Sa...

The only settings that work for "bootable_only" are "y", "Y", and "1". Everything else is taken as "No".

So setting it to "4" is the same as not setting it at all.

I don't have access to the sources, but I checked the ReleaseNotes and they certainly discuss the implementation and changes over time to the Interrupt handling.

Not yet. It's in the big X-5000 ISO update.

There are two device drivers written for the X-5000 and A-1222 machines. The first one released was written by a third party, not by Hyperion, and it uses a fixed MAC address.

The Hyperion device driver correctly reads the MAC addresses from the board and uses them properly.

Thanks for that, Darren.

I've never heard it before, so maybe it was only mentioned in the Linux part of the world.

Now, the next question: how the hell do we program the EEPROM with the missing values?

I do wish we had some proper hardware documentation...

OK Dave, I'm convinced. It must be just that version that you have (I have versions before and after your date).

PM me with your email address...

What is the version string (from SysInfo) of the naughty U-Boot? I ask because I have about four different versions of U-Boot here for X-5020 and 5040. None of them shows any problem with reading, writing, saving or repairing MAC addresses. My two latest versions are: "U-Boot molsen-2018-03-23" and ...

I can't answer your question, but I have pointed it out to others more skilled in the art.

@Skateman

At this moment everyone using an X5000 with the onboard nic and using OS4.1 FE is having the same MAC address!

True, but that's the fault of the driver, not the hardware or firmware. The Hyperion driver does not have that problem.
