Notes

• The ASUS F2A85-M CSM is same as F2A85-M.
• get VGA from original bios using this:

Source: http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2012-December/073133.html

for internal VGA: Boot the legacy BIOS, and use http://www.coreboot.org/VGA_support chapter

extracting from your system: dd if=/dev/mem of=vgabios.bin bs=1k count=64 skip=768

You will need following patch to seabios:

--- a/src/optionroms.c
+++ b/src/optionroms.c

      if (pci->class != PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY_VGA)
         return 0;

     if (!(cmd & PCI_COMMAND_IO && cmd & PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY))
         return 0;

Reason is unknown, I see coreboot is writing 7 to cmd, but there is actually 6... Maybe there is some magic about IO decode bit...

• Add VGA bios in the menuconfig
• If you use PS/2 de-select legacy free
• De-select running option ROMs, leave this to Seabios
• Use seabios as payload
• Hotswapping has some issues (most likely USB3, disable it in orig bios before hot-flashing to coreboot). Drop a mail to mailing list if you have issues.

TODOs

• test virtualization
• test HDMI
• update VERB tables
• test suspend
