The installer belew up -- ending with a machine reset. I was able to do a "safe" install, but the installed system would not boot. That is why I personally sent you one of my MSI-9131 motherboards. Have you gotten it yet? -- David > -----Original Message----- > From: Andreas Jaeger [mailto:aj@suse.de] > Sent: Monday, July 28, 2003 10:09 PM > To: OBrien, David > Cc: stoesser(a)chemie.uka.de; suse-amd64(a)suse.com > Subject: Re: [suse-amd64] kernel trouble > > > david.obrien(a)amd.com writes: > > >> I'm using a MSI K8D Master board with two Opteron 240 > Processors, 6 GB > > > > What BIOS revision and motherboard revision do you have?

Hi List, I'm having some trouble with my Opteron Box, I runs fine for some days and then dies :-( I get the following message: aoc2pc75 kernel: Northbridge Machine Check Exception f61b200100000813 0 Kernel is 2.4.19 as shipped with SuSE 8.2 x86_64. I'm using a MSI K8D Master board with two Opteron 240 Processors, 6 GB RAM, 1 IDE and 3 SCSI Disks, SCSI controller is a Symbios Logic 53c895. Any hints?

kernel k_smp-2.4.19-249 doesn't work?
by Stephen Williams 25 Jul '03

25 Jul '03

The UnitedLinux SP2 patch set includes the kernel k_smp-2.4.19-249, which doesn't boot on my system. At least, it didn't boot after following the normaly YaST2 based install. I haven't tried to debug it thoroughly (I spent the last few hours figuring out how to revert the kernel.) so I'm not sure if the kernel is broken, or the kernel *install* is broken. BTW, the "boot installed system" option on the install disk is a nice touch. I found it by accident, it is really worthy of a place in the printed documentation. -- Steve Williams "The woods are lovely, dark and deep. steve at icarus.com But I have promises to keep, http://www.icarus.com and lines to code before I sleep, http://www.picturel.com And lines to code before I sleep."

Packages needed to build gimp-1.2.3-*.nosrc.rpm
by Stephen Williams 22 Jul '03

22 Jul '03

The i86_64.rpm packages of gimp in the 8.2-beta9 need a version of glibc that is not installed on my system yet. I'm for keeping the install relatively canonical, so messing with glibc will wait. So I think my answer is to build the gimp nosrc.rpm package on my SLES8 system. But there seem to be prerequisite src.rpms. For example where is the gimp-print-4.2.5.tar.bz2 located? I presume there is a src.rpm that contains it somewhere? P.S. If anybody cares, I'll gladly make the compiled rpms available. P.P.S. I'm making the switch to SuSe/AMD64 from RedHat/alpha, so bear with my stumbling over conventions in this world. -- Steve Williams "The woods are lovely, dark and deep. steve at icarus.com But I have promises to keep, http://www.icarus.com and lines to code before I sleep, http://www.picturel.com And lines to code before I sleep."

two nic configuration
by Yoriaki FUJIMORI 21 Jul '03

21 Jul '03

Dear listers, I am running RIoworks' HDAMA with two Broadcom gigabit interfaces. When I tried to configure them, I had a funny experience. First I set up eth0, and then went on to eth1. eth0 is connected to the internet backbone, while eth1 is a port for local lab network, for ipforwarding. Funny thing was that the default gateway, thedomainname of eth1 were just copies of eth0!!! # The network address itself was correct. If I set up in the opposite order, the same mystery occured; eth0 copied some data from eth1. I do not know ehy this happened, but any way I did everything manually, and created a script to run iptables at the bootup time. # As I wrote in the above, eth0 and eth1 are same chips. Has anyone got a similar experience? Thank you for your attention. yoriaki fujimori

RE: [suse-amd64] GIMP RPM Packages for AMD64

Check the downloadable SuSE Linux 8.2 beta 9 for AMD64. There's an RPM in there. -----Original Message----- From: Stephen Williams [mailto:1mc9i5i02@sneakemail.com] Sent: Sunday, July 20, 2003 11:11 AM To: suse-amd64(a)suse.com Subject: [suse-amd64] GIMP RPM Packages for AMD64 Are there any RPM packages of gimp (including gimp-devel) for Suse/AMD64? The gimp.spec file included with the GIMP source seems to be specific to RedHat (i.e. gtk+ vs gtk) and rpm 4 vs the rpm 3 that seems to be included.

I'm interested in comparing the perormance of PGF77 (64bit) with Intel Compiler (ifc 32bit). Has anybody on the list the list experiences with this. I've seen that all the data in the spec website are compiled with ifc, but I'm interested in comparing it whit with PGF77 because we're running a lot of programms written in fortran on our linux cluster. And all of these programms were compiles with 32bit Intel-Compiler. Whatv about the performance of the Portland compiler?
