Debian Configuration :: Intel Turbo Mode Not Kicking In On Nehalem Xeon?

Mar 9, 2010

I've got a dual Xeon 5570 (Nehalem) server. It clocks down properly, but never, under any circumstances that I've found, clocks up past its TSC. Even when running basically nothing but cat /dev/zero > /dev/null, nothing gets clocked higher than the TSC. Below is the turbostat output, which clearly knows what the hardware is actually capable of, but it never actually achieves it. I'm running Lenny, with backported kernel 2.6.30-bpo.2-amd64. I tried the 2.6.32 backport and there wasn't any difference. know where I should look next? BIOS settings? Do I need to change some kernel option and recompile?

# ./turbostat
Nehalem multiplier 22, TSC frequency 2933 MHz
Nehalem 4 cores active: 24 mult, max turbo frequency = 3200 MHz
Nehalem 3 cores active: 24 mult, max turbo frequency = 3200 MHz
Nehalem 2 cores active: 25 mult, max turbo frequency = 3333 MHz
Nehalem 1 core active: 25 mult, max turbo frequency = 3333 MHz

CentOS 5 Hardware :: 5.4 - No Speed Step / Turbo With Intel Xeon X5550 (Nehalem)

Dec 15, 2009

I just installed a new HP DL360 with 32 GB of RAM and a Intel Xeon X5550 which supports speed stepping and turbo mode. I've enabled turbo in the BIOS, but cannot seem to get CentOS 5.4 to make use of either of these features. I've been googling for a solution for a while now, and tried various things, such as installing cpufreq. However, when I type cpufreq-info, I get this:

Debian Hardware :: Disabling Intel Turbo Boost On All 4 CPU

Programming :: AMD CPU Generating Way More System Load Than Intel Xeon CPU?

Oct 11, 2010

I am running some muti-threaded code that uses a lot of memory (~6GB). I have it compiled on a cluster that uses Xeon 5160 quad core CPUs with 4MB cache/core, 8GB of RAM and kernel 2.6.18 (x86_64) and I have also the same code compiled on another cluster that uses Opteron 2214 quad core CPUs with 1MB cache/core, 8GB of RAM and kernel 2.6.28 (x86_64). On the Intel cluster the code generates barely any system load when I look on top but on the AMD cluster it can generate over 50% of system load. On the intel machines my process can generate a constant load of 3, while the load generated by the process on the AMD machines is about 1.6.

Does anybody know what could cause this? Could it be the version of the kernel or the difference between the CPUs (for example, the much smaller cache of the AMD CPUS)? My software and all its dependencies are the same on both clusters. I am also using the exact same version of GCC to compile everything.

Server :: Which Intel Processor To Run A Server On - Xeon Or Core I5

Aug 23, 2010

I would like to run my own server, and I'm thinking of buying a dedicated machine to run it on. I checked out the dell website for a cheap machine to run it on (I don't need high performance - just a personal file server running a few hard drives, and a web/mail server). I noticed that they have some cheap models in their server line that are as cheap as a desktop. Compare:

[URL]

The main difference I see between the desktops and the servers is the use of the Core or Xeon processor, and also, the servers tend to have lower RAM.if I am looking for value, should I opt for a low end desktop or a low end server to run a personal server? Also, what advantage does the Xeon processors and Dell server line have over the desktop models that make it better for running a server?

Debian Configuration :: No Sound On Intel 82801

Nov 27, 2010

I've recently installed stable (5.x, I think that's lenny...) on a laptop and there's no sound at all.

I had this problem years ago when I last installed linux on here. I solved it then and I thought the solution was unchecking "external amplifier" in alsamixer.

I believe my sound card (Intel 82801DB-ICH4) is detected and the appropriate driver loaded (snd_intel8x0) however, even running speaker-test produces no sound (no error either).

I've read that the intel hda have a model parameter found by greping for codec in /proc/asound/card? but I can't find any information about what codec is used in any path like that. Is there a model parameter for this card too? I'm on a philips freeline X10 laptop.

I ran alsaconf and nothing seemed to change. I tried alsactl init but the command init wasn't found, I suppose that must only be in newer releases. I installed libesd-alsa0 to replace libesd0 but that didn't help (should I revert this file? libesd0 says it's for oss). I also appended "options snd_intel8x0 index=0" to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base which got the card registered as the first device.

Here are the outputs of commands I've seen used:

Debian Configuration :: Intel GM45 Terrible Performance.

Jun 7, 2010

Ok first off, I love debian, but on my new notebook I am getting a little frustrated with the terrible, video performance.Direct rendering is enabled on both systems, and openGL is working (I can if I wanted to use compiz etc...) fine on both systems, just running slow on debian.

I have tried Lenny, Squeeze and Sid, I have compiled the intel driver (and Mesa3D) from git and got it working (I am sure its working because its given me a slight boost), I ahve also tried building the latest stable (and RC2) kernel.If I install ubuntu 9.10 I get pretty decent 3D performance, its not ground breaking, but hey its an intel chipset so I am not expecting to kick the latest nvidia / ati card's backside.I really dont want to use ubuntu, I find it unstable when compaired to debian, but I also want to be able to play the odd game when I am bored, and at the moment I just cant do that under debian

Debian Configuration :: Can't Unmute HDA Intel Sound Card?

Aug 3, 2010

According to HDA Analyzer, my sound card is muted; however, I can't unmute it through HDA Analyzer or anything else. According to alsamixer, everything is unmuted, though. According to the ALSA documentation, there's no 'model' id for my codec -- Conexant 5069 -- so I don't have an option to put in /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf. What can I do to unmute the card???

Here's the hardware: cat /proc/asound/cards:

Debian Configuration :: How To Install Ethernet On Intel I7 Amd64

May 25, 2011

Go to "/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/e1000e/" and delete the e1000e.ko-file

Then download [URL]

Take the newly downloaded e1000e.ko-file and move it to "/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/e1000e/"

And finally load the module with either: "# modprobe e1000e" or "# insmod e1000e".

You should now have a working ethernet connection.

If connection is lost on system restart try rmmod e1000e; modprobe e1000e

I've for the first time installed linux (debian) to my computer. And I have a problem with ethernet that I can't solve.

I have a Asus Sabertooth P67 motherboard with built in ethernet card, I cant find any drivers for linux, I've tried google, Asus support page etc, but can't anything that says it will work with my computer, just a alot of windows drivers.

where I can find the drivers? Or if there's another way to solve the problem. When installing Debian i could choose between different drivers but no one worked, I've also tried with my motherboard CD but there was just windows drivers...

Intel i7 3.4 GHz.

Debian Configuration :: How To Check Version Of Loaded Intel Microcode

May 2, 2010

Because the version of the microcode installed by the package intel-microcode in Testing (2009-03-30) is way older than the one currently offered by Intel (2010-02-09), I only installed the package microcode.ctl and let it fetch the microcode. However, after reading the Read Me files, manual pages and system logs, and checking the directory where the microcode is stored, I have not been able to find an option to check the version of the microcode in use.

This is the output of update-intel-microcode:
Local version:

Debian Configuration :: Failed To Load Nouveau - X Doesn't See Intel Driver

Aug 27, 2015

Built a machine w/ i5-4440 & gtx 960. I installed xserver-xorg-video-intel & xserver-xorg-video-nouveau. Xorg -configure fails, so I added xorg.conf I found online, makes no difference. xrandr can't open display. startx of course fails.

Backstory: My plan was to dual boot sid + stable as fallback with shared partition. First installed stable and whether connected to mobo or gfx card, I couldn't get login on tty, it would just hang on errors. So I installed sid (this time using lvm to hopefully make partitioning easier) and while I get the "failed to load nouveau" errors on mobo, gfx card gives me a login screen.

Debian Configuration :: Boots On Emergency Mode After Crash

Aug 8, 2015

First of all, my computer is running Debian Jessie. uname -a gives me this output: Code: Select allLinux felix-PC 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u3 (2015-08-04) x86_64 GNU/Linux

So today I updated my system with aptitude update and aptitude upgrade, and there was few paquages that were updated. Among them was one "linux-image" or "linux-headers". I believe that it is linked to this security update: [URL].... .

During the time aptitude upgrade was running, I was simply surfing on Iceweasel. However, it seems that my system suddenly restarted, without asking me the permission or without notifying me. It really looked like I pressed the restart key, but I actually didn't. My computer battery was full charged and plugged in. So, I do believe that it is my system that rebooted himself after the aptitude upgrade was completed (or even during the upgrade, I don't know).

So my computer restarts, and brings me to GRUB menu: I boot Debian and then I get the usual [ OK ] ***** lines telling that the system boots normally. But this time, I get some errors:

Code: Select all[FAILED] Failed to set up automount Arbitrary Executable file format file system Automount point
...
[FAILED] Failed to start load kernel module
...
[FAILED] Failed to mount /boot/efi
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems

I arrive then in Emergency mode with this message:
Code: Select all Welcome to emergency mode! After logging in, type "journalctl -xb" to view
system logs, "systemctl reboot" to reboot, "systemctl default" to try again
to boot into default mode.
Give root password for maintenance
(or type Control-D to continue):

I tried systemctl default but it doesn't boot my system normally. I also tried Control-D but it just reprints the same message. And finally I typed journalctl -xb, which gives me a long log file (855 lines) that I do not understand.

I would give this log file, but it seems that my internet connexion is broken (because of the kernel, I mean), even with an Ethernet cable. So I can't connect with ssh to the computer I use at the moment, and I can't either send it to myself by mail. I tried to mount an usb key, but it seems that any key won't be mounted because of a kernel problem.

An obvious solution to my problem may be to come back to an older kernel version. However, only the lasted kernel version (x86_64 Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64) is installed. dpkg --list | grep linux-image gives me indeed:

Code: Select alliF linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64 3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u3 amd64 Linux 3.16 for 64-bit PCs
ii linux-image-amd64 3.16+63 amd64 Linux for 64-bit PCs (meta-package)

I do not know how to come back to an older kernel, as far as I haven't any internet connection and as far as I seem to not be able to load an usb key.

Debian Configuration :: Suspend Mode And Cron Jobs?

Jul 7, 2010

Just curious if this is possible. What I want to do is setup a rsync job to backup my laptop to my personal file server(same LAN), but I want it do do this at 3AM while I'm sleeping. However I always close my laptop lid when I'm done using it which puts the laptop into suspend mode since that's how I configured my power options in gnome. Since I don't want to leave my laptop powered up all the time, I was wondering if it is possible to have a cron job scheduled that will wake the laptop up(out of suspend mode) and run my script/backup job, all without opening the lid of the laptop, and then put it back into suspend mode when it's done. Is this possible, and is it as easy as scheduling a cron job or is there some other scripting/configuration/trickery that I need to do to accomplish this?

Also, my laptop's BIOS has the option to power on at a scheduled time if needed, but I'm not sure if that would work with it being suspended(hibernation is not an option since my entire HD is encrypted with LUKS and I would have to be present to enter the password to boot the system.).

Debian Configuration :: Reboot Cycle Running 64bit Squeeze On Intel T3200 Dualcore

Mar 13, 2011

running Debian Squeeze (standard 32bit squeeze Kernels linux-image-2.6.32-5-486 and linux-image-2.6.32-5-686) happily without trouble on a 64bit capable Samsung laptop featuring an Intel T3200 Dualcore processor. However, when I try to boot using the squeeze 64bit kernel (linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64) the system proceeds through a few text lines immediately after Grub, and then performs a warm start.

The text output I get immediately after Grub look similar to the ones I get booting the 486 and 686 kernels, without any indication for the reboot behavior. The rebooting also seems to happen before any entry is written into the boot/system log files (logging is enabled). This behavior also occured when I first tried to prime the machine from the Debian squeeze install CD using the amd64 kernel. I'm generally happy with the 32bit kernels, but I'd like to use the amd64 support to do some Java compatibility testing for 64bit architectures.

The Laptop is a Samsung R510-Aura T3200 Delfina with the following Hardware and Setup (using Grub as boot loader):

- Intel Pentium Dual CPU T3200 @ 2.00GHz (see http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=37160 for details)
- NVIDIA GeForce 9200M GS
- 3GB RAM + 1GB reserved for GeForce
- Konfiguration Details:
-- Phoenix Bios

[Code]....

Maybe a strange BIOS-Setting that works with the 32bit kernels but not with the 64bit kernel? I've seen a post on here that indicates someone is running the amd64 kernel on a T3200 successfully, and the chip is definitely 64bit capable, so the reboot behavior is a complete mystery for me
