Re: Scary behavior on SAM460

Thanks. This probably shows deplorable ignorance, but how would I know? I thought being able to use Workbench but having other partitions reported "unreadable" meant the root partition was better off than the others. Moot question now. First half dozen boot tries this morning, disk activit...

Scary behavior on SAM460--stupid user error solved?

To get right to the point, I had forgotten that the SAM uses the same 2032 battery that has plagued so many of us A1 users. Even when I saw it, I doubted it could be the problem -- my SAM is only about a year old, and I didn't start using it regularly until March of this year. It couln't be bad yet....

Re: Another USB2 hub problem -- sort of solved

Well for cryin' out loud! I was out all morning and in a rush to check e-mail when I got home, and forgot that I was going to try replugging drives on my SATA controller. And it booted right up! No time wasted looking for anything, no "Not available"'s, just reports of found items and then...

Re: Another USB2 hub problem -- sort of solved

Perhaps Uboot looks at the hardware differently (?) where bus 1 = ports 0 and 2 and bus 2 = ports 1 and 3. I wondered about that, thinking that *maybe* if I replugged the DVD onto one of the other sii3114 connectors it might solve the problem. I should probably try it before I waste people's time h...

Re: Another USB2 hub problem -- sort of solved

I've always had sii3114ide_maxbus=1 That has an "ide" that apparently you don't use on a 440. Anyway, I'll try it your way and see if that does anything. One thing that puzzles me in particular, and may be a clue, but I'm not smart enough to get anything out of it: I don't understand why I...

Re: Another USB2 hub problem -- sort of solved

In your first post you said the 460 displays Config: PCIe 4x + SATA-2 But, you seem to have a card in the PCIe 1x slot for sii3114. HD + DVD. The user manual states that you can use one OR the other. So perhaps that should be - Config: PCIe 4x + PCIe 1x. ?? It only took me three months to get aroun...

AC'97 on SAM460?

The case I bought to house my SAM460ex has earphone and mike outlets on the front with a cable inside ending with a female plug labelled "AC'97." The list of connectors for the SAM460ex in the EndUserManual v1.1 says "J41 - Audio front panel AC97." However, J41 has 10 pins, where...

Re: PicShow SAM460ex problem?

I have Snoopy. I realized after I shut down and went to bed that I should have tried it before posting my query. I'm slow to think of it, because usually it doesn't really help me out. I suspect that PicShow came with a readme that told me I needed jpeg.library and I just didn't keep it, although I ...

Re: PicShow SAM460ex problem?

OMG! Thanks, I had completely forgotten about jpeg.library! Copied it over, and now all is OK. This raises another question: I have 92 files in my A1 Libs: and only 72 on the SAM. Would it be safe to copy over the ones not currently on the SAM, just in case they are libraries that I'll need for some...

PicShow SAM460ex problem?

I often want to use PicShow to modify jpeg photos and save them as jpegs. To do so, I set "Save pictures as JPEG" in the options menu. When I do a RA^H to save a hardcopy, it insists on saving as IFF. Ditto if I try RA^1 "Save as." I thought perhaps the copy of PicShow on my SAM ...
