Is there a kernel update for SL 6.2 coming up soon?
Is there a kernel update for SL 6.2 coming up soon? It seems elrepo released a new set of nvidia modules that don't work with the 2.6.32-279.19.1.el6.x86_64 kernel. That one only supports through nvidia 304 and the download is 310. {^_^}

Copying a note from Phil Perry on the ELRepo list: "Just a quick note to say kmod-nvidia-304xx and nvidia-x11-drv-304xx legacy packages have now been released to the main repositories for both el5 and el6. These packages support 6xxx and 7xxx based graphics cards. http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-nvidia-304xx " So, you'd need to install kmod-nvidia-304xx to stay with the 304 series. Akemi

They just released 5.9 It's not clear how long it will take our fearless leaders at Scientific Linux to update the base installation media and OS repository to match, but if you stay up-to-date with the "6x" packages, you should be close enough to up-to-date that the 6.4 release will be pretty pain free. Even withing 6.3, SL has been very good about keeping the kernels updated.

ESATA port multiplier
Have a card which supports port multiplier - give you the ability to connect 4 SATA 6 drives to system. Hardware appears to work but SL 5.7 does not appear to support ESATA. Plan is to use a TR4M-BNC for 4 2 T byte drives. Looking at ports and do not see ports? Any thoughts Larry Linder

Something like Dell H200 ($120) + Intel RES2SV240 ($300) and you're set for 20 ports, at 24 Gbps total speed. (you might need extra cables and internal-to-external SAS brackets for external hard drives, though). I know it's probably much more expensive but it's very solid configuration - works without problems under any server OS. That is, if you need few dozens of drives. If you need only a few drives, what about something like http://www.pc-pitstop.com/sata_enclosures/scsat84xb.asp or http://www.pc-pitstop.com/sas_cables_enclosures/sas4bay.asp or similar solution, combined with Dell 6Gbps SAS or similar relatively cheap card? No expander at all in either case, up to 8 drives, single SAS cable for every 4 drives, very simple and reliable setup (can't guarantee quality of this non hot-swap 8 drives enclosure, it feels too cheap for what it offers, but there are many alternatives, this is just an example). -- Vladimir

Please remember this is the main support channel for Scientific Linux. Alan. It's not this channel's support issue. I understand that. This is why I wondered if 6.2 was going to have a kernel update. ElRepo pushed the newer 310 NVidia modules before any appropriate kernel appeared on SL2. So I have to back off. I simply wondered if waiting for a new kernel was practical or not. And that's been answered. ElRepo messed up pushing updates. (Or else there should be a more recent kernel for 6.2 than what I am running, 2.6.32-279.19.1.el6.x86_64.) {^_^}
How to get IA-32 compatibility with X86-64
We are using a 64 bit installation into 3D visualisation workstations, but need full IA-32 library compatibility. My understanding is that there is no polymorphism between 32 bit and 64 bit applications by default, but there is for libraries: /usr/lib versus /usr/lib64 and the like. However, when I attempt to set both the x86-64 and the ia-32 repos via the "Add/Remove Software" GUI (e.g., Scientific Linux 6x - i386 fpr the ia-32 portion), I only get a list of the RPMs for x86-64 (both the platform and the SL environment) but not ia-32. How does one activate both to appear so that the library packages for both will be put into the system via the GUI? I have done this successfully in the past, but have seem to have misplaced the syntactic instructions for how to do this. Yasha Karant

Nvidia stereoscopic 3D system on SL 6x
We are attempting to get the Nvidia 3D stereoscopic system operational under x86-64 SL 6x. We have been successful for this in the past using OpenSuSE and the Nvidia proprietary X11 driver (expunging nouveau) on the same hardware platform. The xorg.conf file from the Nvidia application does include the syntax: Option "Stereo" 10 NVIDIA 3D Vision mode for use with NVIDIA 3D Vision glasses. The NVIDIA 3D Vision infrared emitter must be connected to a USB port of your computer, and to the 3-pin DIN connector of a Quadro graphics board (based on G8xGL or higher GPU) before starting the X server. Hot-plugging the USB infrared stereo emitter is not yet supported. Also, 3D Vision Stereo Linux support requires a Linux kernel built with USB device filesystem (usbfs) and USB 2.0 support. End quote Nvidia configuration manual. Is anyone using this Nvidia system? The emitter is not going "green". Is there a test application to verify that stereo 3D actual is working? Note that 2D X-11 is working, including gnome and KDE. Yasha Karant

No, this is the nvidia driver telling you that your hardware is no longer supported. It even tells you that you need the NVIDIA 304.xx Legacy drivers. The elrepo-packaged nvidia driver currently supports all kernels from SL6.1 through SL6.3. That said it appears I have to go back to 304 and turn off elrepo updates, which is moderately inconvenient. The Nvidia 7025 is embedded on the motherboard that is less than a year old. So I figure SOMETHING screwed up if it's no longer supported. That's correct - you need to stay at the 304.xx driver as this is the *last* driver that will support your older hardware (7xxx based chipset). We released the legacy kmod-nvidia-304xx and nvidia-x11-drv-304xx packages to aid in this (see the thread linked above) and pushed them out to the main repo *before* we released the updated 310.xx series drivers. Please uninstall the kmod-nvidia driver and install the kmod-nvidia-304xx and then you can continue to receive updates from elrepo. Nothing screwed up, nvidia simply decided it was time to move on from supporting aging hardware (~8 years old?) in the current driver release. Regards, Phil
