[Voyage-linux] re: Alix 3C3 and LEDs

[Bart Jooris]

Hi Joel, Sancho,

Maybe you still have the led problem on the ALIX 3C3?
I Checked the CS5536 datasheet and seems that the chip is not rightly 
configured to
use the leds-alix without any reconfig.

on my machines after boot (with still old bios (before July 2008))

led1 was not set as output
led2 was configured as input...
led3 was configured to aux1

see the testled output (check if "before" and "after" differ) on your 
machine.

After running testled, leds-alix should work.

Cheers,
