Hi all, I installed Lustre on a small cluster running CentOS 5.3 and it works well. But after my installation, the Linux kernel is patched and the NVIDIA driver can not be used. As a result,the visualization software can not work properly. So I tried to reinstall the NVIDIA driver but the installation also need to recompile the Linux kernel. They seem to conflict with each other. Any suggestions to solve this problem? Thanks. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
