sure it does. Now what happens if it decompiles tables and mails them to 
world, I just don't know.

Mark your calendars for the first linuxbios summit

Just hold these dates: october 11-13, 2005

We've arranged for the lacsi symposium, in santa fe:  
http://lacsi.rice.edu/symposium/ to set up 2.5 days for a linuxbios
summit. The info on the linuxbios track, hotels, etc. should be on that
web page later today or tomorrow. We hope to have vendor talks, and
discussions on where we as a community are going with linuxbios.

The time of year is nice in santa fe, new mexico is beautiful, the food is
great, the hotel is very pleasant: do consider coming! We'd like to see 
all of you folks out here. 

Vendors on this list, if you have something you'd like to talk about, 
please get back to me.

thanks

Submitting patches / getting svn commit access?

I've started looking at moving my EPIA-M patches over to the new svn
trunk from my arch repo. However, rather than end up with one huge patch
at the end that needs committed I figure it'd be better to submit
patches as I go along; makes it easier for me to track mainline and also
for anyone else to pickup from where I've got to.

So, what's the best way for me to submit patches, or is there any way I
can get commit access to check in things myself?

J.

Do you know any phreaks who carry around their own trunks.

co-located, same place, same time, same bureaucracy, just register, but 
hold on until it mentions linuxbios on there so you can check the box.

It's saving us lots of work to do it this way ...

And you will just register for lacsi symposium.

BIOS Saver RD1


Hello.

Probably, most guys here use BIOS Saver.
And it works well?
In mine, RD1 for PLCC gets not being writable suddenly.
I mean, it seems writable but # flash_rom -v fails.
I solved this problem by a quick hack.

How about yours? You can write RD1 or W49F002U well?
Any problem happen?

BTW, a cable of your RD1 is not broken?
I needed soldering to fix it.

I don't use bios saver, but I have heard it is very nice.

Can you describe this quick hack?

Is it "flawed by design", or did you get a defective one?
