Hi Paul,

I don't know how you do it but then I'm not a programmer.

All I can say is thanks for the effort you put in for all of us.

Hi Neil,

Are you sure it isn't a dry joint in the KVM?  Maybe it would pay to get a cheap one from Amazon to test.

I am using a cheap Aimos 4 port USB/HDMI KVM switch between 2 Linux boxes, my old Warp 4 box and the ArcaOS test machine.  No problems at the moment.  It uses a single connection USB cable which works with AOS on a USB 3 port.

I also have an Atolla CH-326U3S USB 3 external SATA docking station wit a 2 port hub built in.  It also works but the one annoying thing is that it has to be powered up for the hub to work since it relies on its external power supply rather than being powered from the computer USB port.

Thanks Rich,  I thought it was something like that from things I have read.  I thought I should satisfy roberto and try it but now I won't bother - rebooting the comp when things slow down is nothing more than using the reboot option from the xworkplace shutdown.

Hi roberto,

Will do when I reboot the computer in a few week time - it is on 24/7 until it starts to slow down.

It is strange that only 6GB is found out of 8GB installed.  Either the motherboard isn't showing the correct memory assignment ot there are dud cells in the memory stick. 

It might be a good idea to use the MemTest86 from a usb stick to test the memory.

Hi Dave,

Where do I find that libvpx-legacy-4.rpm? It doesn't appear in the package manager in my new install. libvpx-legacy-2 shows up under the 'installed' section but not legacy-4 nore is it in the 'available' section.

Hi guzzi,

What is the speed of the memory sticks you are using?  I ask because I have seen Ryzen based boxes where those building them went for the latest and greatest speed for the memory and the motherboard didn't support that - changing the memory sticks for lower speed ones brought the performance up to what was expected.

Also, can you post the output of mem /v  , I would like to see how it differs from mine (Ryzen 3 2200G)

EDIT:  If the motherboard is set to grab memory for the video on the processor just plugging in a video card will not change that.

On thinking about it, how much memory do you have on the board?  If you have only 4GB then you will be seeing memory constraints, I learned that when I first started experimenting with Ryzen processors and I ended up with 8GB as standard in all my Ryzen based boards - did go to 16GB for the two Linux boxes though.

Strange that.  Most of my systems are using Ryzen 3 2200G processors because they give video out on all the v-out sockets.

Based on 8 GB memory mem gives the following.


[C:\]mem -v

Total physical memory:      7,906 MB
Accessible to system:       3,311 MB
Additional (PAE) memory:    4,595 MB

Resident memory:              198 MB
Available virtual memory:   3,760 MB

Available process memory:
  Private low memory:         217 MB
  Private high memory:      2,240 MB
  Shared low memory:          153 MB
  Shared high memory:       2,014 MB



[C:\]mem
7,906 MB  (3,311 MB accessible to system)

which runs everything I want without problems.

Hi Devid,

You should be able to get screen shots by using Gotcha2, it will take a screen shot of whatever is on the desktop.

146
So far I have been unable to get any version of VirtualBox host to run on my Ryzen based OS/2 or ArcaOS boxes.  They start but when I try to do anything they just produce a red switch hang.

Hi Martin,

Looks good, the only thing missing is the processor an AMD Ryzen 3 2200G.

Hi Martin,

PCI info for the ASUS Prime A320M-K attached.

Hi Martin,

You can update the MSI A320M Pro-VD Plus to all the USB 3 ports and the USB 2 ports that hang off the USB 3 controller and the VIA USB 2 ports are now working.    Not sure about speed though.

My  ASUS Prime B350M-A and Prime A320M-K also have all the USB 3 and USB 2 ports working.  Again not sure about speed.

Regarding speed of the USB 3 ports.  I don't have any USB 3 sticks to test with but my CH-326U3S SATA Hard disk dock (USB 3 with USB 3 hub) does move files to/from the HD faster.

As a matter of interest I now have all the USB ports working, the USB 3.1 and the USB 2 that hang off the USB 3 controller in the Ryzen processor as well as the USB 2 ports on the addin card - all 15 of them, though why I would need that many I don't know.
