pa-risc project

Hi,

Does anyone know what became of mkhppa1.esiee.fr ?

New url maybe? Closed for summer break?

Mike

Acquired a C180, couldn't get it to work at home, so figuring it was a screen res problem, took it to work. Plugged it into a 20" IBM monitor, no problem. Booted into HP-UX (as received) just fine.

In the BIOS, I turned fastboot off, then did a reset, and it never came up again.

Before I changed the Fastboot, When the machine was turned on, LED's 2,3,4 were on briefly, then they went out, and LED 1 stayed on. Then after a briedf pause, 2,3,4 would start flickering as if it was doing something (which it was).

Now, 2,3,4 turn on briefly, then go out, and LED 1 turns on, and that's it. Nothing else. No video, nothing (A4071B video card)

I've tried removing the video card, and the FDDI card, but still get the same.

Any ideas? Anything else need to be done when fastboot is off, like terminating external scsi port(s), ensuring ethernet is in, etc?? Or should it still at least boot and give a BIOS message?

Machine config:

C180
256MB RAM
4.3GB Disk
CDROM
Floppy
A4071B Video card

fastboot flag controls the number and type of self tests the machine does at poweron. I'd expect the LEDs to indicate what the problem is. You could try removing all but two DIMMs and then swap to a different pair if that doesn't work.
And try cycling the power too - that's different than a reset.

Been there (Power cycling) even disassembled the thing, and reassembled, just to re-seat everything. I will try the DIMMs when I retrun (on a business
trip at present)

Thanks!

Which LED is `1'? (whats the lab beside it?)

According to the C Class (c1x0, c2x0, c3x0) service
handbook, 'net-in' (top or right) LED lit, with no others means `no memory found.' (with a further comment of ``Likely cause:
SIMMs or processor board'').

There is fault that leaves the hearbeat LED lit (at
least, not according to the documentation.) The SCSI access LED lit means ``Processor board fault'' (my C110 currently suffers this.)

There has been an alarming increase in the number of things
you know nothing about.

I'd heard that the local network admin closed the "ports" the web server. And yes - it's summer break there now too. They might consider moving the content over to www.parisc-linux.org. I'll see some them in August and talk to them about it.
