Applications and Porting / Re: Eclipse 4.19 crashing at startup on Debian buster

Even on VoidLinux the package is listed as unavailable. So I guess, it's a bigger issue.

This has to do with a number of things. But it should be noted that the fees that were listed separately in the past are now included in the price.

Applications and Porting / Re: [NEWS] Fedora 34 Beta is out

If you want to change the default boot order, you could use grubby.

Like:

Code: [Select]

grubby --set-default /boot/vmlinuz-5.x.x.fc33.ppc64le

Operating Systems and Porting / Re: Fedora 35 (was F-34): going to 4k page size? Help needed

« on: April 03, 2021, 08:30:23 am »

This is my dmesg output. I can boot with this Kernel, but still get error messages. It seems my Navi card differs from others. Best Kernel with no issues is still 5.4.xx.

I've read somewhere that DG2 is Intel only or something like that. But can't find anymore.

Has anybody else noticed this trend or been able to get the GPU standalone for a POWER9 system?

The availability in Germany is limited and of course overpriced.

Did you set the date to a correct value? Otherwise Ethernet will not work.

Both CPUs are 4-core.
At the end it's all about optimisations.

The graph is wrong
But the Phoronix test suite can't do anything about that. You have to divide the lower result by 4 (228)

These results you could compare:

Only difference: Kernel pagesize and installed RAM and of course the harddisk.

Hello,

I thought the MAC address is unique? But it changes every time after poweron.
How can this be prevented?
