Piccolo Problems solved!



Hi everyone,
After all the discussion on the mailing-list about the 'too much memory'
problem with too few NKMEMCLUSTERS in the kernel i decided to try to
compile a kernel with more NKMEMCLUSTERS. First I tried to load netbsd
with less memory (-m30000) to look if NetBSD works with slight less
memory, and then I compiled the kernel with NKMEMCLUSTERS = 512.
And, voila, the invisible writing problem with my Piccolo is gone.
But I think the main problem is still, that the kernel looks at the
splitted memory space of the piccolo as two gfx-cards.
So perhaps someone should update the FAQ for people with 32 MB and the
Piccolo, that they have to use the loadbsd -m switch for starting and
then compiling a new kernel with more NKMEMCLUSTERS.

Bye,
(: Ingmar Sittl
