Have you got pie today?

[ThE_MaD_ShOt]

I have had this exact problem with my newest linux rig. It loses the usb ports when then bios hands the system over to the os. During post its fine. If you don't have the keyboard during post the issue is not with the os but the board itself. To fix my problem I just enabled iommu in the bios and all was well. During post os isn't in play and has no bearing on functionality of usb ports.

I think that's the kicker. I just noticed it the night I installed the Linux, but that doesn't mean it hasn't existed before without me noticing; how long it's been like this, I don't know. Since USB devices are not recognized and powered during post, I'm thinking it's a bios/board issue, and I'll have to play with it from there.


Thanks gents for all the assistance, suggestions, and info!

Thank you for the offer. If I can't get anything going soon, I just may take you up on it

Very nice to hear from you! Sorry to hear about you shutting down systems, but it certainly is understandable. Doesn't mean you can't stop by and hang out with us though

That sucks dude, but I hear you about electricity costs. A few years ago I was more concerned about not having enough circuits in the house to plug machines into. Now I'm more concerned about keeping my monthly bill a bit less than a car lease payment. I drive a 2008 Civic Si, but still, you get the idea.

I thought the UK was doing a little better lately, but I guess not everyone shares in economic gains equally. At least things there aren't as bad as they are on the continent, at least from what I've read anyway - I could be completely off the mark though.

Best of luck to you and I hope things start looking up for you soon. Cheers.

Do you wants pie; if you want it you've got to fight for it. Come and get your slice

Sorry to hear about the cost of electricity
I have had to downgrade several times due to my electric bill.


I do want to thank you for starting this thread back in 2009

It looks like Mad Shot has the number 2 slot locked up - congrats dude. Third, fourth and fifth place seem like a constant battle for now but I get the feeling one or more of my competitors might be rolling in reinforcements. Anyone feel like sharing?

Is that three 8pin plugs on there????

Mine is a slightly different model and has 2x 8pins (cpu orientation is the same)

Very nice Norton. That could definitely move past the rest of us slackers if you're adding it to your existing farm. What sort of chips will you be using - although if that's still classified info, we'll understand.

4x 12cores (forgot model # atm)

I'm hoping to have it all setup for the next challenge.

What gen? Hopefully something more modern than the PhII-era ones in Kiev

Same generation- I believe they are 6168's

Yeah, mine are the 6128s, so 2GHz Magny-Cours vs your 1.9GHz Magny-Cours. So it sounds like with the current batch of WUs yours should do in the range of 22-24k PPD

Mad Shot might have some competition.

Don't ask me why I picked this gif. It just cracked me up.

 

[manofthem]

Great work pie eaters!

This is probably the last time I'll enjoy pie. my bro's 4670k will be going offline shortly, likely by tomorrow, and my 4790 is going part time, which will give me a chance to mess with it a bit more.


Can't wait for next Challenge!

I anticipated Norton's move and will counter appropriately. LOL

Nice MS. A dual 1366 board. Supermicro is the way to go. Do you have the chips yet? I'm guessing 2 hex cores for a total of 24 threads? There a several 5680's on ebay right now including a few engineering samples and those are around a hundred bucks right now - http://www.ebay.com/sch/Computer-Components-Parts-/175673/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=xeon+x5680

Price might go as high as $200 each but worth looking at - only one day to go in the auction - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Xeon-...T-s-/161455988622?pt=CPUs&hash=item259786df8e

My board will only take up to 95w cpu's so 5675's are basically it. And it has 5650's in it now. I may try and work out a deal on a couple 5675's that someone has.
