It was at the "Loading Fairlight" splash exactly.
Is this a brand new machine? Did you have CentOS 7 on it working previously?
It was built in February 2020. I never had Centos 7 before. I followed Seth Godin's tutorial with version 8.
Is there a reason you used CentOS 8, instead of 7? 8 is EOL in a few days. 7 is not EOL until June 2024.
When I installed Centos in February 2020, I didn't know Centos 8 was EOL in December 2021. I went to Centos 8 directly because of the very recent hardware.
I'm wondering if CentOS 8 is all that supports the 64 core CPU?
Yes it does. It was stable with the different CentOS 8.X before, except that Dolby Vision enabled makes freezing completely the system (need to turn off the computer). By the way, you should really try to work on a HDR project with DV enabled and see if there's no hang. The annoying stuff is that it occurs very randomly. It can be 5 min like 1 hour.
You should not need to command line start Resolve with sudo. If you don't use sudo, does it start, but then not recognize the panel?
Since I tried the sudo command line, the panel is recognized each time when launching DaVinci from the usual shortcut.
If so, sort of sounds like a permissions issue of some sort. In most of the logs where Resolve is running, it appears that the panel has connected and should be working. Did you use the command line start most of the time?
No, I only used it that time to try.
To kill a hung Resolve, use the Utilities - System Monitor app. Sort by Memory use. Either the resolve process or the GUI Thread process should be using the most memory. Right click the process and select Kill. (Not sure why the Resolve app process sometimes shows as resolve and sometimes as GUI Thread. Whichever it is, it should be using over 200 MB of memory and that's the one to Kill).
I can't find any task named "resolve". I'll try the GUI thread then.
Thank you very much.
