An X68030 day

Three X68030s (including one with 060turbo accelerator) running NetBSD/x68k on NetBSD booth at Open Source Conference 2011 Hiroshima. See pictures on Togetter for details. [0 comments]

 

Prometheus PCI driver

The Prometheus PCI bridge is now supported by mppb(4) driver. It is theoretically possible to use all non-DMA cards supported by MI PCI drivers. [0 comments]

 

PCI bus support (amiga)

Basic support for PCI bus was commited in -current, along with the driver for Phase5 PCI bridge, present on CyberVision PPC and BlizzardVision PPC cards. [0 comments]

 

The Resurrection of NetBSD/luna68k

After almost a lost decade since NetBSD/luna68k was switched to using ELF format by default back in 2001, now NetBSD/luna68k is working on the real SX-9100/DT LUNA hardware again. It was also demonstrated on NetBSD booth at Open Source Conference 2011 Kansai @ Kyoto. See an event driven commit log for more details. [0 comments]

 

XM6i ver 0.31

XM6i (X68030 emulator which can run NetBSD/x68k) version 0.31 has been released. On this version, x68k's Xserver now works on emulator's screen by newly added “removing FC2 pin modification” option. [0 comments]

 

QNAP support

Although already mentioned as being supported in the past, some bits were missing, which had been fixed now: RTL 8110S driver in altboot for V200 boards, s390rtc(4) driver, full support for the QNAP's microcontroller, i.e. shutdown, reboot, buttons, LEDs. [0 comments]

 

(sandpoint) New NAS supported

The D-Link DSM-G600 (Rev. B) is supported with all its devices. Note that the revision A is ARM-based and therefore not supported. [0 comments]

 

(sandpoint) Altboot enhancements

Our bootloader got an interactive mode, may be loaded as an U-Boot Linux kernel image and can replace itself in memory. This allows altboot to run on even the most restricted firmwares. Support for more 824x-based NAS boards and a new network driver for ST1023/IP-1000A gigabit ethernet (as found in the DSM-G600). [0 comments]

 

HIL keyboard and mouse support

HIL keyboard and mouse support for old PCXT based machines has been added. These are ported from OpenBSD as a part of hp300 wscons support. [0 comments]

 

362/382 framebuffer support

Support for on-board framebuffers on 362 and 382 controllers has been added. Currently no hardware acceleration or colormap support. [0 comments]

 

NetBSD/hp300 switched to wscons

Finally NetBSD/hp300 has been switched to wscons. Note all drivers for framebuffers and HIL devices are ported from OpenBSD/hp300. See annoucement on port-hp300 mailing list for details. [0 comments]
