Hi All,
We’re interested in getting a Tesla S series to run in conjunction with a linux host, and rather than splash out on a new box we’re keen to use an existing machine if possible. The candidate we have in mind is a Dell 1950 PowerEdge server, and dmidecode indicates that we have two PCI Express x8 slots available:
Handle 0x0900, DMI type 9, 13 bytes
System Slot Information
Designation: PCI1
Type: x8 PCI Express
Current Usage: Available
Length: Long
Characteristics:
3.3 V is provided
PME signal is supported
Handle 0x0901, DMI type 9, 13 bytes
System Slot Information
Designation: PCI2
Type: x8 PCI Express
Current Usage: Available
Length: Long
Characteristics:
3.3 V is provided
PME signal is supported
So, can anyone vouch for this platform? It will run Debian “lenny”, which I have working fine with CUDA on a GeForce 9600 GT.
Thanks for any help.
