Sam440ep: Firmware Update U-Boot 1.3.1c
Press release: ACube Systems is pleased to announce the release of another update of the U-Boot-Firmware for its Sam440ep- and Sam440ep-flex motherboards. Changes in this version:
- Fixed wrong setting for the MMUCR register
- Introduced a new Video Option: Console. Setting it to "Silent" will produce a more nice looking boot screen (see picture below)
- On Sam440ep-flex: if a SiliconMotion 502 is present, and it's not set as primary video card, the SM502 I/O and MEM access are disabled in PCI_COMMAND register after initialization. This prevent some problems when booting AOS4.1 in a dual gfx card setup.
- On Sam440ep-mini: if a Radeon PCI card is present, and the onboard video card is not set as primary video card, the onboard video card I/O and MEM access are disabled in PCI_COMMAND register after initialization. This prevent some problems when booting AOS4.1 in a dual gfx card setup.
- Solved a problem when assigning IRQ to a video card behind a PCI to PCI Express bridge (RadeonHD)
- Video unit and Sprite unit are switched off on SM502
- Solved a problem with the Blitter unit registers not reset to default values at powerup on SM502
- Now it's possible to set baudrate to 230400 and 307200 bps (for faster debug output)
- Changed boot logo
- Reduced font size
The installation archives can be downloaded from the Sam440ep or Sam440ep-flex site.
PLease note that U-Boot and U-Boot Updater include GPL-licenced code and thus are published under GPL. The sources are available on the mentioned sites as well.
