Hi all,
are there any implementations upgrading SUSE-AMD64-based cluster
to a cluster with transparent process migration?
I mean something similar to MOSIX, Kerrighead and alike.
thanks

To follow up,
My XF86Config option for "NvAGP" is "1". I tried "3" and the machine
freezes; hard boot required. As suggested, here's my output from dmesg.
tree@quicksilver:~> dmesg | grep -i agp
Linux agpgart interface v0.99 (c) Jeff Hartmann
agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 940M

1: NVRM: not using NVAGP, AGPGART is loaded!!
My video card is an Albatron 256 MB GeForce4 5600 XE (or SE, I forget,
just the 256 MB version).
So, it appears that the stock kernel detects the on-board AGP (a AMD64
thing?) and just uses that. How can I turn that off.
Forcing any other option on XF86Config currently crashes the machine.
Thanks,

oh, thank you, thank you. It worked. Here I was wondering how I was going to build a kernel when I couldn't get suse installed. Now if I can just get the nvidia 3d stuff going, I'll be set. ;)

Hello *.
Problem:
As soon as 64-bit nvdia driver is used on a
Opteron / Asus SK8N System with SATA disks
applications get only 10 % CPU performance left
KDE / Grafic performance gets down ...
strange: there are a great number of NMI's showing up:
NMI: 11979329
cat /proc/interrupts:
11: 1003701 XT-PIC NVidia nForce3, nvidia
Model: GeForce FX 5950 Ultra
IRQ: 11
Video BIOS: 04.35.20.36.00
Card Type: AGP
Questions:
-someone has a Asus SK8N working with hardware accelerated open gl capable agp-card ?
are there other 64 bit supported opengl cards recommended ?
-kernel options like noacpi or bios settings concerning agp did not change the problem
anyone hints what causes the conflict ? ( irq or agp problem assumed)
TIA
Micha
Have an Albatron with Via Southbridge Sata onboard. Install goes fine if I load sata_via mod and s98klin mod, but on reboot it apparently doesn't add the manually loaded mods to the conf cause it panics trying to mount the root disk (/dev/sda1 - rieser) and I never see anything about the SATA drive. I know there must be a kernel line for this, but I have no clue what it might be.
Thankx.
Does rtl 8169 have support in suse 9.0 ? As I have seen, 2.6 series
kernel have support for it, and I had problems with my linksys nic
(ver4, with tulip driver) using ppp (only tested with suse 8.2 beta)

Hello,
My kylix IDE is running on my suse9/amd64,
but I always get a error if I compile a program with kylix.
The error is:
[Fehler] Falsches Dateiformat: libX11.so.6
possible english translation:
[Error] wrong file format: libX11.so.6
I installed kylix with
linux32 setup.sh
and i start kylix with
linux32 startdelphi
my system is a suse9/amd64
kernel 2.4.21-201-default
any hint for me ?
thank you

Hey folks,
I heard AGP was disabled in 2.4, is that right? Unreal Tournament loads
SUPER slow on my machine -- which I imagine it shouldn't.
My machines's a dual Opteron 240 running with a GB of RAM on SuSe 64-bit
v. 9.0 w/NVIDIA GeForce4 6500 SE (256 MB version). The game takes like
2-5 minutes to load -- is there a way I can test and see if AGP is
working and at the advertised 8x speed? I'm also running the Nvidia
driver and OpenGL works fine.
Thanks,
-- Jason

To All,
Using Suse 9.0 AMD64 on AMD64 +3200 w/MSI K8T Neo/CDR/DVD+-R/Nvidia
FX5600/128 with 1Gb Corsair 400 matched pair of RAM.It's very stable for
my applications desktop/multimedia/graphics and internet.
I have tried manually installing latest version of libgphoto2-2.1.4 but
end up with many errors in make due to 64 and 32 bit libs. Has anyone
out there built a upgrade RPM that they could pass along? I'm still
shaky on compilations although I recompiled and installed xsane and sane
to get rid of suse bug that forgets where the device is.
thanks,
Bob Kile
