Freeze when swithing vt
...d nvidia 1.0-9631
binary driver. I have noticed that switching to console with ctrl-alt-f1
and then back to x with ctrl-alt-f7 locks up the system with a black
screen more or less (sometimes the lockup is complete, sometimes the
cursor moves and it is possible to switch back to console), A user on
nvnews forums suggest that disabling sync to vblank is a valid
workaround. Is this a compiz or a driver issue? Cheers.

Looking for motherboard/chipset experience, again
What about the Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe motherboard? It has 7 SATA ports,
supports ECC memory, socket AM2, generally looks very attractive for
my home storage server. Except that it, and the nvidia nForce 570-SLI
it''s built on, don''t seem to be on the HCL. I''m hoping that''s just
"yet", not reported yet. Anybody run Solaris on it? Or at least on

...ds are going to find themselves between a rock and a hard
place since nVidia is not yet formally supporting this version. The only
real option, which imposes no 3D graphics and no compositing (eg.
CompizFusion) is to use the beta version (173.08) of the nVidia driver
referenced here:

[HOW-TO]Nvidia latest graphic drivers for ubuntu users
...for nvidia based cards, which are not the ones you get by default with the install.
Its highly recommended to upgrade to 180.11 using the following pain-free method :
Code:

Since feb 25th nvidia has released an updated version 180.35 [LINK] (http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=128939/)

Syncing to vblank for interlaced video modes
...ready to be output in correct order to the display.
The current proprietary drivers from nVidia synchronise buffer updates to the retrace after each single half frame is drawn, which for the most part is not satisfactory. The symptoms of this are explained very well in this post -> http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=95836
If I understand, the nouveau drivers currently use the standard vga crtc registers to detect video retrace, and this results in the same behaviour. According to specifications I have seen from AMD, at least one Radeon series has registers which tell which fiel...

Re: Over 4GB RAM issue
...h posted a month or so back that is supposed to fix the issue.But games down to a crawl on 64-bit systems with 4GB ram or greater, and the patch simply doesn't work otherwise.Not even on a 32bit system with 2GB ram.
Also some are suggesting that this may be a nvidia driver bug here: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=127984
Although this may be an unrelated issue.

MCP51 what is the network module name
I have a new biostar motherboard with nvidia chipset.
The lspci says MCP51 ethernet. The module was not detected although
for FC4 installs it says it works.
What is the network module name for the MCP51 driver so that I can
try loading it manually.
CentOS 4.2
Thanks,

qemu-kvm segfaults on starting guests
I have a Centos 5.5 on an AMD 64 system (Athlon II x2 250).
I caught up on updates today, including
-- kernel 2.6.18-194.17.1.el5
-- glibc 2.5-49.el5_5.5.i686
I have several guests that were working before the update, but now none of
them will boot.
With each attempt I get a message in /var/log/messages:

I can't recreate this at will, it just happens.
I have found http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=1630681 which is a similar error, but since I do not have BSD the solution does not apply to me (if it does, tell me how in linux ;))
Finally, I'll list some versions

Nvidia security vulnerability (CVE-2012-0946)
Not strictly a CentOS issue, but users of the Nvidia drivers should be
aware of this. See their announcement[1] for details. Users of the the
manufacturer's driver, or the ELRepo kmod-nvidia driver[2] should update
ASAP to the new version.

[Bug 27230] New: [105M / Acer] Bad EDID causes nouveau to fail on Acer Extensa 5635G laptop
...+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/540632
Nouveau fails to drive the LVDS screen of an Acer Extensa 5635G laptop. This
seems to be due to the laptop having a corrupt EDID.
The latest nvidia beta drivers seem to have a quirk for it, and there's a
corrected EDID available here:
