Notes
- The ASUS F2A85-M CSM is identical to the F2A85-M.
- Retrieve the VGA optionrom from the vendor EFI binary by running 'dd if=/dev/mem of=vgabios.bin bs=1k count=64 skip=768' (source: http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2012-December/073133.html )
For internal VGA: Boot the legacy BIOS, and use VGA_support chapter
- Add the extracted VGA optionrom in menuconfig. The device ID for the APU graphics varies, run 'lspci -nn | grep VGA' to find the right ID.
- If you use PS/2 de-select legacy free
- De-select running option ROMs, Seabios will run the ROMs that coreboot loads into memory so you should get a text display from Seabios
- It is required that seabios is the coreboot payload for the F2A85-M or the internal VGA will not be initialized. But read SeaBIOS for how to add payloads to SeaBIOS and set SeaBIOS' boot order to run your payload.
- its internal VGA comes up just fine (using Change ID I9e0df1669d73863c95c36a3a7fee40d58f6f097e), with unpatched SeaBIOS and these settings:
- CONFIG_VGA_ROM_RUN=y
- CONFIG_PCI_ROM_RUN=y
- CONFIG_ON_DEVICE_ROM_RUN=y
- Hotswapping the PDIP BIOS chip has some issues (most likely USB3 XHCI, disable it in original bios before hot-flashing to coreboot). Drop a mail to mailing list if you have issues.
TODOs
- test virtualization
- test HDMI: video over hdmi works with the extracted vga optionrom, audio is untested.
- update VERB tables
- test suspend
- resuming from suspend isn't working, possibly because I let coreboot handle the VGA optionrom... also, I have set CONFIG_S3_VGA_ROM_RUN=y
