BIG picasso trouble with voodoo
« on: November 14, 2004, 10:35:33 PM »
Hi

I have had my 1200 mediator voodoo 5 ppc stopped for a considerable amount of time, due a HD failure.

I have got a new HD and reinstalled the entire system with a new fresh 3.9. I installed the 3.9 as usual, the MUI, the boing bag 1, the boing bag 2 (not the rom update) and then the mediator system files, the enhanced voodoo drivers ( the one with come in the MMCD ) and then installed the latest MMCD update and MediatorUP from Elbox.

When all that have been done, I installed picasso as usual ( installing as CV64/3D, renaming the monitor, the tooltypes, and later reinstalling the picasso only for Monitorsettings ), but when I restart the machine, the picassoprefs tells me that there is no gfx board installed on the system, and I cant see the "ready" led on the svga monitor, nor if If I try to load the voodoo monitor file after the Wb is loaded. I simply doesnt do nothing.

I dunno what it can be, since when I make a pciinfo, it shows all my board in the mediator, the mediator seems to be working in the 1200 of a friend, the voodoo 5 works on a peecee, and all the devs seems to be ok

Please help!

Hi

Firtly thx for trying to help me.

The point is that I have managd to the the damn thing working, but only in the first boot!

When I starts the 1200 from off it boots up normally, I mean with full voodoo working, but, when I do a reset, then danm machine comeback to boot up iwthout voodoo ( no "ready" led pon the monitor, but the system is working, as i can ear the df0 clicking  )

It seems that somewhat gets hot and hen the voodoo stops working here. The funny thing is that  can have the 1200 working perfectly for all day if I dont do any reset : (

please help!
