Alloc Mem Failed and other problems.

QNX Newsgroups (Archives) qdn.public.qnxrtp.installation

I’ve been waiting for the QNX release a long time,
and I have to say, I’m kind of dissapointed. The
OS doesn’t work nearly as easily as it should.

  1. It only runs in VESA mode, even though I have
    a Creative Labs RivaTNT (AGP). Ph first detects and tries to use the
    devg-tnt.so driver, but then the system gives me
    a “Alloc mem failed” error, and switches to the VESA
    driver.

  2. Networking doesn’t allow more than one card. It
    also doesn’t detect my Linksys LNE100TX card, even
    though every OS I’ve ever tried that had a tulip driver
    worked with it.

  3. This is just a random question. Does anyone
    know if RtP supports NAT?

Any help (especially with the graphics thing, the OS
looks really cool, but VESA blows chunks) would
be greatly appreciated.

Could you elucidate this a little bit? I have tried using crttrap trap,
and what it does is give me a line about trying to load devg-tnt.so,
but then it says Alloc Mem Failed, and it loads the the VESA driver.
However, it says Alloc Mem Failed after the VESA driver as well, so
I’m not quite sure if that is the problem. Could you tell me if it is
possible to override the settings of crttrap and use the ones for devg-tnt?

Thanks in advance.

Depending on your individual system configuration not all hardware is
supported

Since this is still a BETA at a very good price I guess patience will have

to be used.In QNXs list of supported hardware I do not see a Linksys
hopefully its in development.

This message is coming from pci-bios. If you can grab some info for us,
we can forward to the pci-bios developer.

Kill pci-bios (‘slay pci-bios’) then restart it in verbose mode,
redirecting the output to a file, e.g.

pci-bios -vvv 2>/tmp/pci-bios.out

The run ‘crttrap trap’, and grab the output file.

Also, post the output of ‘pci -v’.

Here are the outputs. Also, I noticed that there is no mention of any TNT cards
in device.map. Another person on this board had this problem with a Matrox
Millenium, and somebody suggested taking one of the lines for the G100 and
replacing a value. I don’t know if this would work, and I can’t do it, since
there are no lines at all for any NVIDIA cards.

device.map is no longer used. We need to remove it completely.

The list of supported cards is now in /etc/system/enum/devices/graphics

We’re going to need some more info, so bear with me > :wink:

First of all, the output of pci-bios -vvv below, got truncated.
This is because the file did not get flushed. Slaying pci-bios
when done, would have cause the file to get flushed.

Could you do the following:

  1. Rebuild your boot image, without seedres, or pci-bios:
    a) cd to /boot/build
    b) edit qnxbase.build
    c) Stick a ‘#’ in front of lines with ‘pci-bios’ or ‘seedres’
    d) run 'mkifs qnxbase.build > /tmp/boot
  2. Copy the /tmp/boot file into your boot partition. (Back up the old
    boot image first). If you boot from windows, the boot file
    is qnxbase.ifs. If you boot off a QNX partition, the boot
    file is /.boot
  3. Reboot. Log in.
  4. run ‘seedres -v 2>seedres.out’
  5. run ‘pci-bios -vvv 2>pci-bios.out’
  6. run ‘crttrap trap’
  7. run ‘slay pci-bios’

Now grab *.out and post them.

As usual, crttrap doesn’t want to cooperate. The message it says
is about the same as usual, except right before it says “alloc mem failed”
it says memory request start fd000000 - end fdffffff size=65546"
Also, it keeps find_bus 1, and io_(something)_id=3. And thanks for your help.

We’re going to need some more info, so bear with me :wink:

First of all, the output of pci-bios -vvv below, got truncated.
This is because the file did not get flushed. Slaying pci-bios
when done, would have cause the file to get flushed.

Could you do the following:

  1. Rebuild your boot image, without seedres, or pci-bios:
    a) cd to /boot/build
    b) edit qnxbase.build
    c) Stick a ‘#’ in front of lines with ‘pci-bios’ or ‘seedres’
    d) run 'mkifs qnxbase.build > /tmp/boot
  2. Copy the /tmp/boot file into your boot partition. (Back up the old
    boot image first). If you boot from windows, the boot file
    is qnxbase.ifs. If you boot off a QNX partition, the boot
    file is /.boot
  3. Reboot. Log in.
  4. run ‘seedres -v 2>seedres.out’
  5. run ‘pci-bios -vvv 2>pci-bios.out’
  6. run ‘crttrap trap’
  7. run ‘slay pci-bios’

Now grab *.out and post them.

Thanks!

: Here are the outputs. Also, I noticed that there is no mention of any TNT cards
: in device.map. Another person on this board had this problem with a Matrox
: Millenium, and somebody suggested taking one of the lines for the G100 and
: replacing a value. I don’t know if this would work, and I can’t do it, since
: there are no lines at all for any NVIDIA cards.
