Forum Topic - Can run Photon: (5 Items)
   
Can run Photon  
We have a card with a built-in XGI display.  I know there is no specific driver but I was hoping to use one of the 
generic ones.

When it boots, we get the messages
...(stuff)...
Trying SATA mvSata. Scanning for devices...
xpt_configure:  No mvSata interfaces found
dispconf: rename(): No such file or directory
mount: Can't mount / (type io-display)
mount: Possible reason: No such file or dreictory
Starting extra run commands
io-display is not running, unable to continue
login: 

Running ph manually also complains about io-display.

From enum-devices -n:
...
dispconf -i 0x18ca,0x0020,0 -d svga -d vesabios
io-display
mount -Tio-display vid=0x18ca,did=0x0020,deviceindex=0

Running those commands manually gives the same errors as above.  Adding an entry for the vendor/device to run vesabios 
doesn't work either.

From sloginfo:
Mar 07 23:10:30 2 8 200 /etc/system/config/display.conf: No such file or directory

/etc/system/config/display.conf does exist.

I ran dispconf under gdb, the rename that fails is from /etc/system/config/display.conf.$<pid> to /etc/system/config/
display.conf and the source does not exist.

Is there anything I can do to get Photon running?
RE: Can run Photon  
Can you post your output from 'pci -vvv'?  Thanks.

Not easily at the moment.  There's no way of exporting files currently.

However, if I remove the flash drive and plug in a CD drive, load the QNX 6.5 CD, boot into that and F2 to run off the 
CD, Photon starts with the vesabios driver.
Re: RE: Can't run Photon  
SOLVED.

I re-installed QNX and it worked first time.
RE: RE: Can't run Photon  
ok, great.
