Archlinux and P35 Chipset. [ABIT FULL OF FAIL?]

Hello, my latest build for my comp includes an Abit I-P35E. I have heard of P35 motherboards and linux not getting along very nice. Some of my friends have motherboards from Gigabyte with the P35 chipset and they are running Archlinux no problem. I on the other hand cannnot get ArchLinux running without modifying too many things. Here's what happens:
I have 3 SATA hdd. If I run 2 hdds in the upper most sata ports (5 and 6) then ArchLinux and Ubuntu will not have problems finding my hard drives. If I run them in ports 1 and 2 I do get errors. If I run 3 hdds, in ports 2,5,6 then I still get errors. The IRQPOLL fix does not work.
Sabayon is always praised to be the most up to date technology wise distro. I tried sabayon and to my suprise it actually works with all 3 hdds. It's a tad bit bloated, and I would rather use arch.
So I am wondering if anyone has had similar problems and if they did, how they fixed them. I am also wondering if the newest release of arch gets rid of this problem. The newest ubuntu 8.0.4 doesn't, and I don't expect arch to either. Right now I'm using sabayon.

That shouldn't really affect the hdd controller though. I'll check out the beta though, and chech which kernal version/config sabayon is using. I really much rather use arch.
off-topic: i am just thinking about switching to a gigabyte p-35-board with an e6750. which kind of ram do you use? which boards do your friends use exactly? i am not quite sure about which model exactly i should buy.
on-topic: in the sabayon-forum (or here) send a mail to wolfden, he is a sab-dev and also arch-user. perhaps he has some information about this.
Hes using Crucial Ballistix ram PC2-6400 (DDR2 800).
Im one his friends. I use Crucial Ballistix PC2-8500 (DDR2 1066) and a Gigabyte DS4 P-35 mobo (see my sig for full name)

  • What is the difference between P35 Platinum and P35 Neo2 FIR?

    What is the difference between P35 Platinum and P35 Neo2 FIR?
    P35 Platinum
    P35 Neo2 FIR
    BIOS is identical?

    The P35 Neo2 is FIR is actually listed as P35 Neo2 FR/FIR. It is what you could call a "modular mainboard".  Even if it has the same PCB as the P35 Platinum mainboard, it doesn't necessarily mean, that it will always come with the same features.
    If you look at the mainboard manual you will find that the ICH9R-Chipset and Firewire are mentioned as optional features. That means you will be able to purchase versions of this mainboard that will only have an ICH9 chipset and therefore won't support RAID or that don't have a firewire interface. 
    The abbreviation F,I and R have the following meaning:
    F...Gigabit LAN
    I... Firewire
    R...RAID
    In case you decide to buy the P35 Neo2 mainboard, pay close attention to the feature list. Even if the board is listed as FIR by a specific dealer, make sure it really comes with firewire and an ICH9R-chipset. If someone decides to sell the board with the full name that appears on the MSI Support Site (FR/FIR) he might be actually trying to sell a P35 Neo2-F trying to get a better price. 

  • ACS 5.3.0.40 On-demand Full Backup failed.

    Hi,
    I have ACS 5.3.0.40 Primary Secondary Authenticators , of which the Scheduled backup has stopped.
    When checked the :
    Monitoring Configuration >
    System Operations >
    Data Management >
    Removal and Backup
    > Incremental Backup , it had changed to OFF mode. without any reason.
    The same was observed earlier too.
    I have made the
    Incremental Backup to ON and intiated the
    View Full Database Backup Now. But it wasn't successful and reported an Error:
    FullBackupOnDemand-Job Incremental Backup Utility System Fri Dec 28 11:56:57 IST 2012 Incremental Backup Failed: CARS_APP_BACKUP_FAILED : -404 : Application backup error Failed
    Later i did the acs stop/start  "view-jobmanager" and  initiated the On-demand Full Backup , but no luck, same error reported this time too.
    Has any one faced similar type of error /problem reported , please let me know the solution.
    Thanks & Regards.

    One other thing; if this does end up being an issue with disk space it is worth considering patch 5.3.0.40.6 or later since improves database management processes
    This cumulative patch includes fixes/enhancements related to disk management to avoid following issue
    CSCtz24314: ACS 5.x *still* runs out of disk space
    and also fix for
    CSCua51804: View backup fails   even when there is space in disk
    Following is taken from the readme for this patch
       The Monitoring and Reporting database can increase when as records are collected. There are two mechanisms to reduce this size and prevent it from exceeding the maximum limit.
    1. Purge: In this mechanism the data will be purged based on the configured data retention period or upon reaching the upper limit of the database.
    2. Compress: This mechanism frees up unused space in the database without deleting any records.
    Previously the compress option could only be run manually. In ACS 5.3 Patch 6 there are enhancements so it will run daily at a predefined time, automatically when specific criteria are met. Similarly by default purge job runs every day at 4 AM. In Patch 6 new option provided to do on demand purge as well.
    The new solution is to perform the Monitoring and Reporting database compress automatically.
    2.       New GUI option is provided to enable the Monitoring and Reporting database compress to run on every day at 5 AM. This can be configured under GUI Monitoring And Configuration -> System Operations -> Data Management -> Removal and Backup
    3.       Changed the upper and lower limit of purging of Monitoring and Reporting data. This is to make sure at lower limit itself ACS has enough space to take the backup. The maximum size allocated for monitoring and reporting database is 42% of /opt( 139 GB). The lower Limit at which ACS purges the data by taking the backup is 60% of maximum size Monitoring and Reporting database (83.42 GB). The upper limit at which ACS purges the data without taking backup is 80% of maximum size Monitoring and Reporting database (111.22 GB).
    4. The acsview-database compress operation stops all services till 5.3 patch 5 , now only Monitoring and Reporting related services are stopped during this operation.
    5. Provided “On demand purge” option in Monitoring and Reporting GUI. This option will not try to take any backup, it will purge the data based on window size configured.
    6. Even if the “Enable ACS View Database compress” option is not enabled in GUI then also automatic view database compress will be triggered if the physical size of Monitoring and Reporting database reached to the upper limit of its size.
    7. This automatic database compress takes place only when the “LogRecovery” feature is enabled, this is to make sure that the logging which happens during this operation will be recovered once this operation is completed. ACS generates alert when there is a need to do automatic database compress and also to enable this feature.
    8. Before enabling “LogRecovery” feature configure the Logging Categories in such way that only mandatory data to log into Local Log Target and Remote Log Target as Log collector under System Administration > ... > Configuration > Log Configuration
    This “LogRecovery” feature can recover the logs only if the logs are present under local log target.
    9       This automatic database compress operation also performed only when the difference between actual and physical size of Monitoring and Reporting database size is > 50GB.
    10 The new CLI “acsview” with option “show-dbsize” is provided to show the actual and physical size of the Monitoring and Reporting database. This is available in “acs-config” mode.
               acsview     show-dbsize     Show the actual and physical size of View DB and transaction log file

    Date and Time          02.02.2009 08:44:59
    Short text
         A row with the same key already exists.
    What happened?
         Error in the ABAP Application Program
         The current ABAP program "SAPLHRMS_BW_PA_OS" had to be terminated because it
          has
         come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
    What can you do?
         Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
         To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
         administrator.
         Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
         at and manage termination messages, and you can also
         keep them for a long time.
    Error analysis
         An entry was to be entered into the table
          "\FUNCTION=HR_BW_EXTRACT_IO_ORGUNIT\DATA=MAIN_COSTCENTERS[]" (which should
    have
    had a unique table key (UNIQUE KEY)).
    However, there already existed a line with an identical key.
    The insert-operation could have ocurred as a result of an INSERT- or
    MOVE command, or in conjunction with a SELECT ... INTO.
    The statement "INSERT INITIAL LINE ..." cannot be used to insert several
    initial lines into a table with a unique key.
    to correct the error
    Probably the only way to eliminate the error is to correct the program.
    If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
    find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
    If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
    keywords:
    "ITAB_DUPLICATE_KEY" " "
    "SAPLHRMS_BW_PA_OS" or "LHRMS_BW_PA_OSU06"
    "HR_BW_EXTRACT_IO_ORGUNIT"
    If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
    notification to SAP, include the following information:

  • Intel 865 and 875 chipsets: A bad idea?

    Since I started building PC compatible computers, I have used a lot of different motherboards whith different chipsets, video cards, cpu's, peripherals, soundcards, ram types, etc. I always had a problem or two when building a new system, but I also always found a solution. But I think I never had so many problems as I am having now with my new 865PE Neo2 LS system.
    Every day I see more and more people with problems with their 865/875 chipset computers. In this same forum lot's of people ask for help with their systems. Random reboots, blue screens, unstable systems are the most common problems. Almost ALL this problems are Windows XP related. This problems persist, even when they (me too) have changed EVERY pci card, agp video card, and even ram, leaving only the Cpu and motherboard to be replaced (and loose some money in the process). I have started to wonder if 865 and 875 chipsets are XP friendly.
    My last system was an Intel 850 chipset board with a pentium 2.4 GHz and rambus rdram. I NEVER had a blue screen, less a random system restart, even when I used the most strange cards and peripherals.
    I have started to wonder if this new system was worth it. Is it worth buying an Intel 2.4C HT Cpu when you just can´t enable HT because your system becomes unstable?. Does it make sense to buy an 865PE motherboard with faster memory bandwith, when you have to use windows 98 or ME?.
    Right now I am using windows ME because I was writing this same thread in XP and my system rebooted.
    So, here I am, waiting for a new chipset to appear, and more money to be collected, so I can build a computer I can USE.
    I am even hoping prescott cpu's can't be used with this board, so I can have an excuse to change my system.
    Sad, but at this point it is probably the only thing left me to do, and also for a lot of other people out there.

    Well I'm sorry that you have had such bad luck with Intels newest Product ....I myself have had nothing but Praise for Both of the Chipsets, as I own Both Flavors, I have a brand New ABIT IC7-MAX3(i875) MSI-6758-FIS2R(i875) and My Wifes I865PE-LIS2R, and aside from minor bugs, Which I have found to be More of the Memory Makers Fault than Intels for trying to shoot Modules out there without taking the time for a true extensive testing period, so they could see that these Chipsets are like no others that came before them....Are they "Picky" or "Tempermental" absolutely, do they give us the Memory Bandwith (Up to 6.4 GB/Sec) that we could only dream of 12 Months ago?....I say yes.....I really dont think that you are going to see Intel vary to far from this Chipset, You may see a revision change but, dont hold your breath on something completly different (except for PCI and AGP Bus Revisions) until Intel finally Desides to go with a 64 BIT Desktop CPU ................Sean REILLY875

  • In my Macbook Pro finder folder under All Images, there are duplicate files, but one is small and the other is full size. I wanted to clean up the files, but don't know why I have two of everything. Any Ideas?

    In my Macbook Pro, the Finder folder has duplicate images in the 'all images' file. One image is small and the other is full size. First question is why do I have two of every image? Why is one small and the other large. Do I need two of everything? If not, which do I delete?
    thanks, Jean

    Hello fane,
    Re: duplicate images in finder.
    Nearly all images are JPG with a few GIF and PNG sprinkled in.
    I opened the inspector so I do get info when opening each image, but it a slow process.
    It seems that one image is around 70k while its twin can be up to 4Mb which is what comes unedited from my camera. Sometimes there will be 3 or 4 identical images in finder, but when I open iPhoto to see what ‘s really in the file, I find only one image, and it’s full sized.
    Are all these extra images, even if they are aliases, taking up space on my drive? And should I delete them? The info bar says I have over 10,000 images, which is rather a lot  for what I do.
    I am unable to add the file size on the view menu as it is grayed out. Don’t know why it’s gray, but having that info on the screen would save a lot of time and fiddling with each image.
    I am trying to resize selected pix so I can upload them to e-bay, which requires less than 70k. I have looked at resizing programs but most are for PC platform and not Mac, so I am trying to resize in the finder window under tools. Tedious at best. Any suggestions will be appreciated
    Thanks for your help,

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Given what you've have described, your friend cannot have restored the iPad correctly. You need to decide whether you are willing to delete his contacts manually, or carry out another restore. Personally I think I would go for the restore.

  • HT201272 Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store

    Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store? When I try it tells me the pruchases have already been downloaded to this computer.

    Does your purchased rmusic appears under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) ? If they do and you don't have the cloud symbol against them so as to re-download them, then do you still have the entries for them in your library i.e. where you would normally click on them to play them ? If you do then try deleting them from there (iTunes will be seeing them and assuming that you still have them somewhere) and they should then get the cloud symbol for re-downloading in the Purchased link.
    If you aren't in a country where music can be re-downloaded then you could try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page,

    How can I download a previously downloaded purchase to my iTunes library on my laptop when the listing for the song in my library won't play because it says it cannot locate the file. Yes I have searched my iTunes folders and also done a full windows search. The track plays on my iPad and my iPhones but will not play on my laptop!?
    It has an "!" To the left of the song title in my library
    My worry is that if I sync my iPad/iPhone then I will lose the track on those also!

    If you cannot find the file on your hard drive then once you delete the current broken entry you should be able to redownload from iTunes in the Cloud. This assumes the item in question qualifies. Note that audiobooks, digital booklets, iTunes LPs & Extras, ringtones, selected movies etc. don't.
    If prompted don't hide the item. You may find that you need to close and then reopen iTunes before it will appear for download.

  • I have a macbook pro4.1 and the sound chip in it failed. My speakers and microphone no longer work. Does anyone know of an external speaker and microphone set that plugs into the USB port so I can continue to use both of these functions?

    I have a macbook pro4.1 and the sound chip in it failed. My speakers and microphone no longer work. Does anyone know of an external speaker and microphone set that plugs into the USB port so I can continue to use both of these functions and not have to pay to have the entire main board replaced. Preferably something under $100.

    I don't think you're likely to find a set of external speakers that come with a microphone and plug directly into a USB port. There are USB audio cards that look like tiny flash drives but have microphone and headphone ports in them, to which you can connect a typical two-plug Windows PC headset with a microphone, or else you can connect external speakers and a stand-alone microphone. Those adapters typically cost under $10. I don't know anything about the quality of sound that can be expected from them.
    I have a Griffin iMic, which is much the same idea but larger, a bit more expensive (retail~$40), and perhaps delivers somewhat better sound quality (I hope so, but I don't know because I've never had occasion to try one of the little ones).
