When I roll my desk chair off IKEA polycarbonate floor protective mat, the computer hangs 7 out of 10 times. What is this piezoelectric EMP discharge shit? How do I fix it? Computer case is grounded and no it is not vibrations ...

M̶A̶D̶E̶ ̶I̶N̶ ̶U̶S̶A̶ [MADE IN MALAYSIA] ... Guess the guy who designed the silk screen was new to the industry at the time.

Unfortunately this SGI O2 motherboard is beyond salvage. Voltages are measured OK. If anyone needs a power supply and/or RAM sticks, ping. Else it goes in the recycling bin.

Had a stab at porting QEMU's virtio-9p to NetBSD. Biggest issues are heavy reliance on passing around struct statfs whereas we have statvfs, and also no dirent.d_off which seems to break glibc and will be painful to emulate I guess. But it can read plain files!

dmesg of OrangePi 5 Plus in ACPI[1] and FDT[2] mode. ACPI mode is quite usable already but fdt most notably lacks pmic, xhci and pcie support. [1] netbsd.org/~tnn/rk3588-st… [2] netbsd.org/~tnn/rk3588-st…

Managed work around the _CRS issue for now. But taking MSI-X interrupts causes a hard reset and MSI interrupts just seem to not get delivered. MADT and/or GICv3 ITS bug?

radeondrmkms can map the framebuffer and do wscons. But has the same issue as the LX2K where the ROM BAR is not enabled by EDK2 and all bios extraction methods thus fail. Dumped the bios on an amd64 box and compiled it into the kernel. md kludge for mapping the bios needed.
