General notes:

  • At some times, the "project" machines may be allocated to specific students for project use and not available for general access.
  • All of the above computers are fitted with nVidia CUDA-capable graphics cards (including GeForce GT 330, Quadro NVS, GeForce 9X00 and GeForce 7X00 series cards).

  • The configuration may vary slightly from the above on some machines.
  • All systems have flat panel LCD colour displays, and are networked via either 100Mb/s or 1Gb/s Ethernet.

  • See the Linux services page for information on remote login.

Special Test software/services

A few machines have special test software installed, or are running test services:

  • CUDA toolkit (version 3.0) and GPU SDK installed throughout the labs (on linux) in /usr/local/cuda (feb 2011)

  • gitk (version 1:1.7.0.4-1) installed on fusion07 for testing, to be installed everywhere very soon (dec 2010)

  • Condor has been deactivated and the CPU governor has been set to 'performance' (maximum CPU frequency) on the glyphs (may 2011)
