Hardware virtualization (vt-x)

+

+ The R400, when run without CPU microcode updates in coreboot, currently kernel panics + if running QEMU with vt-x enabled on 2 cores for the guest. With a single core enabled + for the guest, the guest panics (but the host is fine). Working around this in QEMU + might be possible; if not, software virtualization should work fine (it's just slower). +

+

+ On GM45 hardware (with libreboot), make sure that the kvm and kvm_intel kernel modules + are not loaded, when using QEMU. +

+

+ The following errata datasheet from Intel might help with investigation: + http://download.intel.com/design/mobile/specupdt/320121.pdf +

+

+

The R400 is almost identical to the X200, code-wise. See x200.html.

-

- Usual limitations apply for native graphics initialization - (no VBT and/or INT10H and only GRUB works so no BIOS, so no DOS/Windows support - - who cares? There is no system but GNU, and Linux is one of it's kernels). -

- -

- When connecting the AC adapter while system is powered off, system will then power on. - This probably happens in coreboot aswell (with or without blobs). - It's a minor annoyance, but it should be fixed (if it's not already fixed by now). -

- -

- This method of disabling the ME leaves the flash descriptor and gbe in place (non-functional data, fully documented) - and disables the ME using soft straps. This means that the gigabit ethernet will still work (putting the system in - non-descriptor mode would wipe it out). -
