Hej !

En ny firmwareupdate för Pegasos II ägare är tillgänglig ifrån bplan.

Länk

OBS; Läs varje detalj i instruktioner och följ de exakt innan ni gör update !

Huvudsakliga nyheter i updaten;

- Network boot 10/100 ( setenv client-ip/setenv server-ip )
- 256MB memory limitation under Linux removed
- RAM Timing changes for better support of different memory modules
- additional RTAS functions

Här är mina första erfarenheter (från mina kommentarer på pegasos.org):

/proc/cpuinfo seems to generate correct output now:

processor : 0
cpu : 7457, altivec supported
clock : 999MHz
revision : 1.1 (pvr 8002 0101)
bogomips : 999.42
machine : CHRP Pegasos2

I'm getting about the same FPS with glxgears on my Radeon 9100 as before the update. Hopefully the random crashes will be fixed though. The memory problems seems to be gone as well, I've assigned MOL 256MBytes of RAM, before the upgrade this would have weird effects on the system almost immediately.

RTAS seems to be working properly as my system just rebooted without user interaction. I also found this nice little thing (haven't tested it):
"cat /proc/rtas/poweron
Power on time not set"

So far the harddrive bootup bug seems gone as well. I powered down my machine and left it off for a couple of seconds then powered back on. With SF 1.0 I had to reboot the machine ones to give the harddrive enough time to initialise, this time I didn't have to.


Innehåller den några uppdateringar som har någon effekt på MorphOS?

Det jag tyckte mig märka var att Ambientskärmen dök upp någon sekund snabbare efter att boot.img laddat.

Men det kan ju vara inbillning.

Men eftersom den Pegasos II G4 jag har, innan hade v 1.0, så känns det ju än bättre att fått denna uppdatering.

I övrigt är det nog med tanke på förbättrade linux och bsd funktioner som man släppte denna just nu.

Något som också är intressant är det de skriver om 'Ram timing changes'

Är några som tidigare skrivit om kompileringsfel i vissa situationer, vilket man skulle kunna tänka sig varit relaterat till detta.
