I remember someone doing some experiments using IBM Power 9 CPUs. Basically, thermal paste was much better than common termal pads, and indium termal pads were slightly better than pastes. Personal...

@Philipp Krause if you look at this discussion, the thermal paste could possibly be improved.   https://www.ipi.wiki/community/forum/topic/79192/compatible-coolers

My case is 3U, so a 4U coller wouldn't fit. Also, I don't know of any place to buy an air cooler that would fit here, so I can't really change the cooloer. For now, the case is open top sitting on ...

@Philipp Krause That seem too hot to me, and just 5 degrees lower than the throttling temperature according to the Altra Max datasheet. I'm not sure if you'd want to change the CPU cooler, or incre...

@Philipp Krause  Yes, the stock cooler may be difficult to handle the heat with more than 64 cores. If you want to use air cooler, maybe 4U is recommended. On my system, I'm currently using a...

@Willy Tarreau I met your situation, too. But Unfortunately, I just can't downgrade firmware from 2.09 to 2.04 using Capsule. I'm tring to use the bios on the carrier by setting some Jumpers on the...

True, similar here, with "sensors". I also have one sensor per NVMe SSD, and also one for my NIC. Apparently, the "apm_xgene-isa-0000" is the CPU sensor. By high system load for a dozen minutes, f...

I finally "fixed" it by upgrading to firmware 2.09.100.00 but it brought its new bag of problems (system now takes 7 minutes of silence before the EFI prompt and a few such anomalies). But the freq...

OK that worked, thanks again! However now I'm having a serious problem with this upgrade, the system is ultra-long to boot (7 minutes of silence, with sometimes a few rare "PROGRESS" codes on the ...

Dear @Alee Kin, enter as a "Ubuntu on Wayland" mode.Username: adlinkPassword: adlink123

@Jiaheng Wang much appreciated, thank you!  

@Willy Tarreau You can reffer to this document: https://www.ipi.wiki/pages/aadk-docs?page=firmware_Flashing-EDKII-SCP.html And the newest firmware can be found on Adlink's github : https://github....

Hello, I've install ubuntu-desktop-minimal and try to login but fail with incorrect password. apt-get update apt-get install ubuntu-desktop-minimal Could your provide correct password of us...

I'm waiting for the fan adapter to connect to the module, so in the meantime I'm using a Noctua fan controller connected to a header on the carrier.   "sensors-detect" doesn't detect any eit...

@Philipp Krause It's just the way MegaRAC works. I'm hoping to get OpenBMC running on it in the near future. You can add new users via the web interface, so I guess you can add root?

Surprisingly, the cooler is not as noisy, as I'd have expected given its size vs. the TDP. Sometimes is swithces on-an-off every few seconds, which is annoying, but otherwise the noise is fine. D...

In the web interface, one logs in as user "admin". Via ssh, as "sysadmin". Is it possible to change those usernames, maybe make them the same? Why are they different in the first place? Also, why ...

That indeed works for me, but only if I do not encrypt the root filesystem - otherwise the kernel hangs on boot. Anyway, I got my AADK now running Debian GNU/LInux. Hope it survives future grub upd...

@Olof Johansson I've just submitted 3 PRs for the ADLINK firmware, one of which fixes the SSIF interface. It was set up to use I2C9, but the link to the BMC is actually on I2C5: https://github.com/...

@Jiaheng Wang our messages have crossed, for an unknown reason your latest one was only refreshed after I posted mine. Very interesting for the firmware, I'll definitely have a look, thank you! Jus...
