...No joy. I just get psycho babbled all over about "Reaching out to me". I have had it. Is there a good replacement for Virtual Box? requirements: 1) must run on CentOS 5.x as the host 2) must support Windows Server 2008 32 bit sp2 (not R2) as a guest 3) must support Supermicro X8SAX motherboard 4) must support the Intel x5650 processor (6 cores) 5) must actually work! Many thanks, -T

Morning Everyone, I'm busy doing a rebuild of my home server and am tossing between VMware and KVM for this build. I already have experience with ESX, we use it at work, but I'm debating trying out KVM for a while. The server itself is a budget build using a Supermicro X8SAX board w/ i7-950 & 12GB RAM, LSI 3081 SAS RAID (1068e based), rolled into a NorcoTek 16 Bay SAS case. Not fancy but also decent enough for home use. I don't expect high performance out of this unit so unless the gear is hopelessly outclassed, I'm not in a position to entertain upgrading....

...domU shutdown from dom0: xm shutdown, shuts down domU but dom0 network seems to go to sleep and needs 1 minute to come back to life on its own. /var/log/messages shows nothing weird, but I may not see the subtle error among the logs The system bellow has no such issues: Motherboard: Supermicro X8SAX OS: Gentoo x86_64 linux-2.6.29-gentoo-r5 Xen: linux-2.6.18-xen-r12 I googled and visited gentoo and xen forums, but just found the following thread about such issue: http://www.mail-archive.com/xen-discuss@opensolaris.org/msg02942.html which is sadly empty of solution. I must admit, I don’t rea...

Hello, I am building a home file server and am looking for an ATX mother board that will be supported well with OpenSolaris (onboard SATA controller, network, graphics if any, audio, etc). I decided to go for Intel based boards (socket LGA 775) since it seems like power management is better supported with Intel processors and power efficiency is an important factor.
