Known issues with CUDA 5.0.17 driver (including crashes and kernel panics) on Mac OSX

We have recently learned of some issues with the new CUDA drivers from Nvidia that cause crashes and kernel panics in some circumstances, including when switching between applications that use the GPU.
See this page for details.

Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the third-party developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, email the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

  • Known issues with CUDA 5.0.17 and 5.0.24 driver (including crashes and kernel panics) on Mac OSX

    We have recently learned of some issues with the new CUDA drivers from Nvidia that cause crashes and kernel panics in some circumstances, including when switching between applications that use the GPU.
    See this page for details.

    You are experiencing a page fault (reference to an area outside of what is owned by the software in question) in the AirPort driver, in a Mac OS X kernel that does not have obvious third-party modifications to it.
    This should not be happening. Your Mac OS X image may be Bad.
    If you do not already have a Trusted Backup, that should be your Top Priority.
    If this is a new MacBook, and it is within the first 90 days of ownership, contact telephone support and ask them to help you. They will likely suggest a re-Install, right over the Mac OS X you have in place now. This is intended to do no damage, but you should always have a Backup.

  • Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?

    Since I've installed Mountain Lion, I am having lock up issues with multiple programs. MS Outlook has crashed and I've lost all my folders. HELP?

    okay I've finally been able to get tor and all the other programs to work according to my plan the only thing that's still making problems is that iptables doesn't work as I want it to, when I start chromium without proxy settings privoxy doesn't seem to forward the information to polipo.. do I need to add another rule to iptables.rules in order for the program to know it has to reroute the information again or how can I get this to work? and is there any way to run rtorrent with proxy support?
    anyway, problem 2 and 3 are still to be solved.
    and does anybody know where i can get a good dansguardian blacklist that was not designed for 6 year old children and for which I don't need to subscribe? I'm still getting these partypoker popups -.-
    //e: with iptables it's the same thing as described in the first post. https works, http doesnt. I get the output "Invalid header received from client." on http sites. still no idea why though.. (and the https-version of torcheck.xenubite says i'm tor unprotected while starting the browser with iptables)

  • Hi - Are there any known issues with Webroot Secure Anywhere causing Firefox to crash?

    Hi -
    I use Webroot for anti spyware and anti virus (Webroot Antivirus with Spysweeper) which is Version 7.
    The program keeps bugging me to upgrade to Webroot SecureAnywhere, which is Version 8, so I gave it a try.
    Sure enough, Firefox crashed every few minutes. So I un-installed SecureAnywhere (retaining Version 7) and everything was fine again.
    So not sure what to do. Perhaps try another anti-virus (and if so, what do you recommend) or just keep Webroot Version 7 (which continues to scan and update just fine, from what I can see).
    Thank you,
    Randy

    First (this isn't an official Mozilla opinion, just personal experience), I find Webroot to be rather a poor quality anti-virus, with poor detection rates, and lots of problems when it does run. My opinion is to use Microsoft Security Essentials for anti-virus. It is free, light and quite good. [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials]. If you decide to go with it, uninstall webroot first.
    Now, if you decide to keep webroot, you can try fully uninstalling it, then reinstalling it. Also, if you go to "About:crashes" in your firefox address bar, do you have any crash ids (they start with bp-).

  • Known issues with the Super Drive on an iMac 2.7 Ghz

    Are there any known issues with the Super Drive on an iMac 2.7 that would result in speed issues and a grinding sound?

    Vertically installed super slim DVD drives are not as reliable as a plain desktop burner. I've had one fail in two of three iMacs and have always had an external which I use most of the time. Other than that, the brand new iMacs do not have a Super Drive, so if that is what you are inquiring about, the point is moot. You need to buy an external anyway. As far as speed, I have never used a burner at high speed - unless you have a professional model, you can easily get burn errors when burning at a fast speed; sometimes consumer models do well burning with high speeds , other times not.

  • Are there any known issues with Adobe Edge Animate and Yosemite? Experiencing performance issues since upgrading OS

    Are there any known issues with Adobe Edge Animate and Yosemite? Experiencing performance issues since upgrading OS. Animation I was working on that had been performing in browser fine suddenly stopped working, and was not related to any action I had done at that point. Also was working in it today and program stopped responding to key board short cut commands.

    I am having a whole slew of odd interface problems with a fresh 2014.1.1 on a fresh macbook pro with latest Yosemite. Program locks up, cursor selections don't show, things disappear. I have a mac mini also and the program runs fine on it. Is there possibly something related to the solid state hard drive in new macs?

    Axel,
    I'm afraid a new SSD won't be different from your bad USB stick. I had similar issues over USB with both a (no-brand) stick and TWO 64gb Kingston SSDNow's (running Kubuntu 12.04 with Kernel 3.11, ia_64): it all runs exceptionally well (wanna know how it feels like booting in 5 sec?) for a few days - then suddenly you find yourself facing that dreaded (initramfs) prompt. You ask yourself: why? Did I upgrade grub lately? Did I upgrade the Kernel? I don't recall so. Ok, let's fix this... insert favorite live cd, boot, fsck...what???? THOUSANDS of errors??? Hundreds of files and directories corrupted, and the system is unusable - Reinstall everything from scratch onto another drive.
    Rinse and repeat: did this 3 times. Then I found this analysis:
    http://lkcl.net/reports/ssd_analysis.html
    I also suspect USB power interrupts more abruptly than SATA power, at shutdown - basically aggravating any power interruption damages. So now I'm going to:
    - buy an Intel S3500!
    - add commit=1 to my mount options in /etc/fstab
    - edit shutdown procedure to add a 5-10 sec pause after unmounting drives.
    Just my two cents.

  • Nokia 6500 on 3 - known issue with signal recepti...

    Does anyone know if Nokia and 3 have yet developed a fix for the known issue with 3 reception on the 6500?
    I just spent close to two hours talking to 3 about this. We got a 6500 "upgrade" from 3 and have discovered that the phone doesnt work anywhere around our home, or the locality of our home. We have reverted to a 4 year old 6680 from the back of our wardrobe which will show 4 bars of signal when the brand new 6500 shows no signal at all.
    3 advised that very poor ability to get a signal is a known issue with this phone, however as we did not report it to 3 within the 14 day period they expect us to stay out the contract or pay a near £400 termination fee. (or take a much inferior phone which is "the only model we are authorised to offer as a replacement"). (The reason we didnt report it was that as we had been happy with our existing model we didnt swap the sim card over straight away. When we did discover it we tried 3's suggestion of upgrading the firmware (the phone arrived with a 2007 version) but this did nothing to help.
    What really bugs me is that 3 contacted us in September and spent close to an hour an the phone persuading us to upgrade to the 6500. That's five months at least after it was a known issue and being worked on by Nokia and 3. (There are posts within this Support Forum discussing the issue that go back to April at least.)
    I will be reporting 3 to trading standards but am curious as to what progress has been made (if any) on sorting this issue out?
    I also thought it may be useful for others to be aware of as it will allow them to make a more informed decision about the phone, and about 3's attitude to their customers. We have been with them for over 5 years.
    At one point, when I told the manager/supervisor that I had become aware of the fact that it was an issue that was well-known 5 months before 3 persuaded us to upgrade, he suggested that it was out fault for not researching the web and forums well enough, and that I should have discovered this before agreeing to take the phone.
    Amazing.
    Be warned!!!!!

    Hi all - sorry I stopped monitoring the thread in the run up to christmas but thanks for your replies.
    shumboy, redroxy, roslily, ginger25
    very sorry to hear you are all experiencing the same problems and that 3 are as unhelpful with you as they were with us. my guess is that the problem with this phone is so widespread that they would let themselves open to too much cost if they started actually doing the right thing and replcing them like for like. I also think the suggesiton that the only way out of a contract is to pay out £260+ (£300 in our case) after it was their own promises of what a good phone it is, despite the fact that this significnt problem has been known about for months, that persuaded people to take the contract is tantamount to fraud and that certainly trading standrads should be informed.
    gaz_level2 - thanks for the information you gave which confirms that there are known issues with H3G signals and the 6500 especially. I didnt understand some of the detail as I am not technical but I hope others seeing this post may get the info they need to make an informed decision should 3 continue with their despicable practice of enticing people into signing up based on what a great phone this is.
    wafush - if you are considering 3 : NO NO NO
    Ben - you are lucky to have a 6500 that is working (based on replies to this thread and on other boards) and you are right that people dont start threads complimenting phones. I started this one for two reasons: a) to see if/how-many others had the same problem and b) inform people about it and what help they could expect from 3 when the problem does occur
    Steve/Hamraam - we seem to be in a ridiculous situation where the newest phones are actually less good at making and receving phone calls than phones of 5-6 years ago! They're brilliant for taking photos, browsing the web, playing MP3's. But for simple phone calls... ? And dont get me started on battery life! My old 6310 can last two weeks if I switch it off overnight. Most of the new phones require re-charging at least every other day and if you use push email make that once per day minimum.

    This testing will not really address any cross domain issues, due to the content being hosted by ScormCloud.
    What I found interesting, is that in ScormCloud, using the links below, my results were opposite those that I obtained through my LMS.
    In LMS, Captivate 5 worked, Captivate 6 did not in IE8, both worked in FF
    In ScormCloud, Captivate 5 did not work in IE8, but worked in FF, and Captivate 6 did work in FF and IE8.

  • Any known issues with SQL DB Link Synonyms joining on encrypted columns

    Are there any known issues with accessing encrypted columns via a database link that is masked by a synonym?
    We are experiencing unexpected results when the encrypted column is anti-joined through a not exists, to a local encrypted column of the same datatype The encrypted columns are person ids. If the expected person id is hard coded, the results return correctly. The local database is 10.2.0.4.0 and the link is to a 10.2.0.3.0 RAC.
    Both enrollments and person_ids, below, are synonyms to the linked tables.

    The cause of the problem is not the same.
    In your case it takes forever to load the thumbnails from flickr.com; the SpryDataSets without the loading of the thumbnails works as expected.
    Remember that ALL of the thumbnails for each 60 odd projects are downloaded from flickr, that is about 1800 thumbnails.

  • Known issues with Citrix Xen App 6.5

    Are there any known issues with Citrix Xen App 6.5 and Adobe Reader 10.1.1?

    As per the administration guide, http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83709/attachments/Acrobat_Enterprise_Administration.pdf
    Citrix XenApp 5.0 and 6.0 are supported on 10.x products. As per my deployment tests, they work as expected.
    But am not sure of XenApp 6.5 with 10.0 products, though it should work but I have not tried them.
    In order to avoid any issue, we should stick with the correct prerequisites.
