You need to patch the kernel, the dns323 initialization is missing the second controller:

        orion5x_i2c_init();
        orion5x_uart0_init();

After that, the boot log shows:

But I didn't test it in the "bare metal".

BTW, can you software-poweroff your box with 2.6.30? Anybody can? I can't.

This sux. I just updated my kernel to version:
uname -a
Linux nas 2.6.30-1-orion5x #1 Sun Jul 19 01:26:48 UTC 2009 armv5tel GNU/Linux

and I can only see 1 Marvell Orion EHCI there.

grep -i Product /proc/bus/usb/devices
S:  Product=Marvell Orion EHCI
S:  Product=USB2.0 Hub
S:  Product=JUMPDRIVE
S:  Product=Flash Disk
S:  Product=DataTraveler 2.0

What do you mean? Have you applied the patch? Do you have a Rev-A or Rev-B1 board? According to Marvell's datasheet, the 88F5182 has "Two USB 2.0 ports with PHY", while the 88F5281 has "Single USB2.0 peripheral or host port with integrated PHY".

Edited: if you dont known which one you have, search in the boot log for "Orion ID:". My Rev-B1 box has a MV88F5182-A2

On my box, after apllying the "patch":

# uname -r

PS-The "patch" does not takes into account this difference between Rev-A and B boards, which is trivial to do, just *look* at the top of arch/arm/mach-orion5x/dns323-setup.c:dns323_init()

I meant to say,
According instructions from here:
http://www.cyrius.com/journal/debian/or … an-control

I've used kernel from this repository:
http://people.debian.org/~tbm/orion

Apparently inicialization procedure for second port is not there.
I cannot see /proc/config.gz as well to safely build my own kernel.

Do You have repository I can add for Your kernel?
Or kernel .deb package?
Can I have Your .config file to build kernel?

After looking at picture of my DNS-323 it is rev B1
http://picasaweb.google.com/rastislav.d … 7685897554

dmesg reveals:
[    0.230000] Orion ID: MV88F5182-A2. TCLK=166666667.

ah, ok, you could start by saying that.

You can extract the kernel config file from the file you donwloaded, a .deb package, which is just an archive of several files. In linux, you can:

silver:~ # ar t /tmp/linux-image-2.6.30-1-orion5x_2.6.30-3_armel.deb # lists archive
debian-binary
control.tar.gz
data.tar.gz
silver:~ # ar vx /tmp/linux-image-2.6.30-1-orion5x_2.6.30-3_armel.deb data.tar.gz # extract only data.tar.gz component
x - data.tar.gz
silver:~ # tar xvzf data.tar.gz ./boot/config-2.6.30-1-orion5x # extract just kernel config
./boot/config-2.6.30-1-orion5x

Or you could just open and explore the archive with, e.g. gnome "file roller".

Be warned, the debian kernel is a "fat" one (34MB of modules), and has several patches applied, so you must also download the debian kernel source, or apply the patches to a vanilla kernel.
Luck.

Hi, sorry - I missed this the first time...

Yes, using Erik Benada's patch from here: http://lists.arm.linux.org.uk/lurker/me … 4a.en.html with the appropriate user space actions as he describes. Halt, restart and poweroff all do exactly what they say!

This also allows you to control the blinking of the main led via gpio. Haven't checked if this has made it into 2.6.31 or not.

Cheers,

Barney
