LinITX FX5620 problem
-
Thank you again Cry Havok!
Can I ask you some questions?
Do you boot pfsense with acpi enable or disable?
Make some difference? -
Enabled currently, but it didn't seem to make any difference.
-
Have you turned off USB 2.0 in Bios ???
Mine did the same (hanging) -
I think the BIOS settings are default - I don't remember changing anything except the processor throttling on overheat.
-
You have to turn off USB 2.0
There is an option somewhere.
Don't disable the hole USB stuff, just USB2.0 -
Thank you Rasty64bit,
I will try to disable usb 2.0 as soon as possible
Thank you again -
Did it work when you dissabled USB 2.0? I'm thinking about buying some FX5620 and i'm trying to learn about the problems.

Hi VaCUm,
I have changed the box with another one, and it works without problem (the uptime is > 7 days)
When I 'll return in office I'll test the previous box with the usb 2 disabled. -

The only problem I've had with mine is the fact that it uses RealTek for the network. If I saturate my 20 Mb pipe I'm seeing 50% CPU time handling interrupts :(
On the other hand, that leaves the other 50% for running Squid etc, which is generally more than enough :)

I've had one of these for over a year on my production network with a full install on a microdrive. Never had a problem with it.
There may be something to the box getting too hot with a SFF IDE HD inside. I have a similar sized passively cooled box that doesn't work reliably with an internal HD and the case closed - it overheats. Haven't tried a HD in my FX5620.
