Quick replies never make much sense.. There was a question about needing to change xorro boards if you have multiple projects. With just a little organization that is not a problem. As an example, the sentinel data logger requires a serial port and an SD card socket. But any other project you make c...

I use a header file to assign hardware that's on the Xorro board to symbolic names, like the serial port and the SD card socket. This allows the Xena program to "find" the resources by name easily enough. This does NOT solve all issues, but it's a fair start. The remaining problem is mostl...

A "normal" AHI installation includes all the drivers available in devs:AHI. When AHI is started, it attempts to open each of them. Each driver that does not find matching hardware generally says it did not find hardware matching it's target on exit. So that would explain most of the output...

... I did the blue LED modification as well as move the power led to those other pins you mentioned Lyle. Though my blue LED seems to be on all the time, I assume yours flickers according to hard drive load ? I prefer the blue anyway :) ... My blue light flashes. Very quickly for the SSD, a bit slo...

I can't answer them all, but I can offer a few things.. About booting reliability: Mine is very reliable. But you should install FE on a clean partition, then add the RadeonHD driver separately. The Radeon driver on the FE install is limited in resolution and features. Also beware of where kickstart...

Pardon my ignorance on the subject but how can Linux running on a 32 bit processor with 2GB memory space see 4GB?

Possibly because the PA6T-1682M is a 64 bit processor.

Hello. I have a X1000 with 2 GB memory and now I want to install OS4 FE. In the same time I will also try to install some Linux distro and want to upgrade the memory to fit in something like 4 GB. Look like it is not easy to found another pair of the Kingston Hypex memory module so I wonder if I ca...

.... I can guess that it's JP1/JP2. Is there a system function for reading the GPIO pins or do I need a register address for reading them? It's register addresses and bitmap masking. Not difficult but not system friendly either. like a good idea when I first considered it but if a system freeze is ...

Xena has plenty of unassigned I/O, And a fair bit that is connected to the fast localbus. But joining them would require loading code into Xena, and then monitoring some specific addresses from the system side. I have done it, but it's not at all a "simple" solution. There is another bit t...
