And I hope you'll understand why I don't feel it's necessary to provide links for something I didn't say. While it's okay to question or disagree with something, practicing polemics for its own sake is quite often not beneficial to anyone. I asked John for links because he made quite a few claims which asked for substantiation or, at minimum, more investigation. I don't know why you would object to that completely valid request, but at the same time am not asking for a response on that point... or, indeed, anything in this post. Instead, I'd only suggest that we all consider, prior to posting, whether a disagreement or other statement is beneficial to the list as a whole and relevant to the current thread. Finally, as it seems you may not be aware, it would show consideration for others if you wouldn't top-post. So, just a suggestion.

All machines I've bought or built since the late '90s have had video cards with a .5G of dedicated memory. This is mostly because video memory is physically different, using static RAM rather than dynamic RAM. The former is something like ten times faster than the latter. NO video card uses static ram, at least not since the early 1980s. Perhaps you're intimately familiar with each and every video card manufactured since the early '80s except for the ones I bought with my machines, because I've always insisted on video cards with static RAM. Or perhaps your understanding of static RAM is different from what I'm talking about. the modern CPUs with integrated graphcis controllers such as the Intel HD4500 stuff is excellent, at least on MS Windows systems. the main memory controller on these CPUs has HUGE bandwidth, the video display overhead is lost in the noise unless maybe you're running dual huge screens. a dedicated controller might be 2-3X faster or more at 3D gaming graphics, but its not usefully faster at normal desktop graphics. dedicated controllers use significantly more battery power than integrated ones, a consideration on a portable laptop. It would be nice to have authoritative sources for these opinions. Also, the speed of a video card is going to depend a lot on the instruction set provided by the particular card and and then also very much on how well the software/drivers make use of that instruction set. Those factors are going to vary widely, which is why I spoke only to the speed of the *memory*. So saying a dedicated controller might be 2-3X faster or more at 3D is meaningless, like saying 'a car with ABC tires might be faster' Dynamic RAM actually uses *more* electricity than static RAM. Here are some sources which support the statement above that dynamic RAM uses more electricity than static RAM, making static RAM more suitable for use in laptops and other situations where power consumption is an important consideration: http://computer.howstuffworks.com/question452.htm http://www.wisegeek.org/what-is-the-difference-between-static-ram-and-dynamic-ram.htm#didyouknowout http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_random-access_memory ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I'll take a look on some development server to see if that was my problem (data_directory change). It is awfully non-Enterprise to do that withing the same release (meaning 5, not re-spon 5.11). I was better opinion about RedHat team... No it is not Selinux (which is off and I have my opinion about Selinux...). And no, it is not main.cf, rpm does excellent job keeping them in place and creation ...rpmnew). Thhough in this case it has been (likely that is the case) defeated by layout of files changed...

This traffic has nothing to do with anything but the screen and just doesn't belong there. It is logically independent on anything and should be kept separate from memory bus - physically. I don't think that the shared memory integrated cards work that way, the video output has dedicated frame buffer memory so that every screen refresh doesn't go over the main memory bus, what goes over the main bus are all of the graphical assets and commands used to compose the final image, which often need to be shared with the main CPU anyway. — Mark Tinberg mark.tinb...@wisc.edu ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

D.
I can't say much about (1), but I do kickstart my VM installs all the
time. My approach might not work for you, but here goes.
I put all my ISO images on an NFS share from my workstation, which I
then configure on my EXSi boxes as a datastore. I then put my kickstart
files in a directory reachable via http.
I configure the VMs using VSphere and power them on. Since I don't have
a PXE server configured it pauses there, so I open the console to the
VM, point the CD drive to an ISO image on the datastore, and reboot the
VM using send ctrl-alt-del, which then boots from the ISO image. When
the boot menu comes, up, I hit tab and append ks=http://{url to
kickstart file} to the kernel line and continue from there. The
installation generally continues without much manual intervention from
there, other than the Initialize Disk? messages.
There's a LOT more manual intervention here than I like, but there are
constraints in my environment that will not allow me to stand up a PXE
server. I have been able to do this with the VSphere client on Windows
(grumble!) and the web GUI via VCenter.
YMMV!

Yeah, I'm aware that they are part of the CPU die but I was splitting some hair about the output being buffered on the video output port (HDMI/VGA) so that if the image doesn't change then the video output port doesn't even hit main memory, it can just resend it's buffer. Maybe I'm remembering how it worked when the GPU was integrated with the motherboard chipset and memory controller, which had a couple of megabytes of video ram, before those features were pulled into the CPU itself. It looks like also on the higher specced Haswell chips that there is a new 128MB eDRAM L4 cache shared between the GPU and CPU execution units which also greatly reduces the memory bandwidth needs — Mark Tinberg mark.tinb...@wisc.edu ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
