Is the Sales team drastically underwater or something? I got one reply almost immediately, apologizing for not sending me the system I bought in 2018, thanking me for my patience, and saying I’d have it in two weeks. (???)

Message 2

Thanks very much, Calvin. I’ve written Sales with a copy of my Invoice including Invoice ID. Fingers crossed!

You don’t happen to sell the 3080 Ti for upgrading your Lambda Quads, by any chance. Predatory pricing out on the open market.

Message 4

Awesome - thank you, Calvin. Excellent.

Can you find the library anywhere on your system?

4x 1080 Ti - #3 always red-lighting shortly after restart (Apr 18, 2021)

Good suggestion on the UPS - I bought a very good one just for this system (and network disks that hold the data) and have used it from the very beginning. I’ve got a fair amount of electronics and use power regulators all over the place. I doubt it’s power. Probably the connector cable! 😊

Thanks - yes, it worked - it’s a Lambda-Quad that I bought here with 4x GPUs. I did the pull-card, reseat cycle a couple of times and it eventually worked. It’s been running all four without issue for five days now. I’m not convinced it’s actually fixed, but if it goes again I’ll pull it.

Stuck at "Configuring libcudnn7" - can't accept the license (resolved) (Mar 3, 2019)

By sheer luck, I stumbled on Alt-Enter to produce a dialog asking to accept or reject the license agreement. Lamba Stack install completed and no more incompatibility reported:
rh@lambda-quad:~$ nvidia-smi

…there’s no evident way to accept the agreement, and “preparing to unpack […] libcudnn7” doesn’t progress. If I try our old friend ‘nvidia-smi’
