I have a really big trouble with VIA-EPIA mainboards under Linux 2.6.19. After loading kernel Linux the RESET-circuit ceases to work correctly. At reset (by RESET-button or by Watchdog) the system begins to be restarted, but hangs before occurrence of any BIOS-messages. Only a power-off and then power-up can help. The problem has been reproduced confidently and constantly, I has checked up about 20 mainboards (EPIA- EN/C7 and EPIA-PD/C3). I am sure, this is not a Linux-related problem, but error in hardware design or BIOS-code. Because RESET-circuit must work always and be independent from a running software. VIA's support doesn't give any usable response. But now I just need some workaround... Does somebody has ideas? I can make some tests or perform deep-debugging, but currently I don't know where I could start from. Thank in advance. -- С уважением, / Best regards, Леонид Юрьев / Leo Yuriev КБ Кроникс / Cronyx Engineering mailto:ly@hanoi.cronyx.ru
