I’m having a lot of diverse problems with QNX RTP since I installed it. Perhaps
I should limit myself to one problem a mail, however …
- When booting I get a message-
Range Check Failed (Mem) - Dev10-Vend 1073- Class 40100 - Addr d9000000 -
Size 8000
Range Check Failed (Mem) -Dev 8139 - Vend 1000 - Class 20000 - Addr d90800 -
Size 100
I assume this is telling me either some of my memory is bad or the OS,for some
reason can’t access it or,indeed, both.
I have 4*128 MB ECC sticks, which have previously checked out fine, and I’ve
had no problems with. What’s to be done?
2. I have no sound even thoe the driver for my Sound Blaster Live seem
installed and there seems to be nothing obviously muted.
3. Printing from my HP4L laserjet consists of churning out the right number of
pages; but without any print! Even more annoying then failing altogether.
4. The mouse curser has the annoying habit of changing into a large black or
barcode square. Is this supposed to happen? (its a PS2 Kensington Scroll mouse)
I could go on about the bezare behaviour of VMail; but, doubtless, I’ve
misunderstood how to set it up and I think I’ll just leave it for now.
Thanks
QSSL has indicated these PCI problems should be fixed in the next release, within a
short time.

I got similar messages, and think I’ve tracked it down to a bridge chip support
problem. Maybe BIOS, maybe QRTP. I don’t know, but the boards on the other side of
the bridge give this message and then do not seem to be sensed properly by QRTP when
I go to mmap_device() them. They attach OK and the info addresses seem OK, but when
mapped the returned logical address cannot be used to actually access the cards.
I’ve posted this on the QNX newsgroup qdn.public.qnxrtp.os, under the subject
“Possible PCI bridge chip problems (DEC21150-AA) with QRTP”.

i have no idea what’s going wrong, but i get two similar messages every
boot. they didn’t appear on the first few boots, but now i get them
everytime. it’s not ram – after swapping sticks in an upgrade, i get the
same messages. they seem to have no effect because my system is running
fine.
Tack för ditt mail och ha bra dag.

what is wrong with you ability to play audio cd’s? start phplay
from the command line and tell me what you see. start the
mixer with (mixer -@) and try unmuting aux, tuner,… You
might be wired funny from your cd rom to your audio card.

Thanks for the info. At least it will be fixed.
You will all be delighted, well I was then, to learn that its not that I
don’t
have sound with QNX RTP its just I can’t play CD’s. Wave, MP3 etc are
fine. I
suppose its out of the question that my 3Gb of MP3’s, on a BeOS partition,
will
be acessible in QNX RTP?
