wifi is running fine.
graphics seem fine as well.
still occasional self-reboot at PCI config (60-70% it gets by this ok) I'd like to know why.
I've used -f to make sure Im dealing with a fresh load from any prior changes.
Just running the box and seems to come out of sleep fine. I'd like to finish up the audio, im reading everything before I do anything, then let the box run non stop a few days with just basics, mail web.
Then see how stable Houdini 16 is as well as the long awaited transfer of CS6 to the box. No rush though. I dont want to install a bunch of stuff only to have to redo (past lessons).
Thanks to you and people like Mister Stork, and HELL, Toleda!!! Couldn't have done it without the work you and slice and others put into these nice toolsets/workarounds.
Audio is good now. thanks Toleda and his guide.
The short list, gets shorter.
Houdini ran very well, thanks. It is very processor and graphic card centric. Seems that they have struck the balance of use from both the CPU and the GFX, whereas I believe Keyshot is strictly CPU. THAT will be pretty to see it rendering.
I just wanna make sure we are good.
I've already dealt with losing legit licenses on effed up HD's that required reinstalls.
So far Zbrush and Keyshot have been understanding. Adobe is a dead letter box. Still, at least I have CS6 on mac, and just PS creative cloud on Win as I was trying out a neat material editor, Quixel. It functions inside PS but allows for all sorts of 3D related map development for scenes, objects etc.
I noticed in sleep, that the box will wake up, but leave the monitor off... Half Asleep? Apnea?
Monitor wakes when you space bar. No signal going to monitor until then.
Facetime is good to go, slapped a cheap usb camera/mic, it sees it and facetime is happy. Audio choice shows up in device list in Sys Pref pane. Still have to test a call.
Oh and nVidia Control Panel "cannot load", the driver is there and the card functions, but after a fresh install, it's ok until the next boot. Either I have a setting off (most likely) or something is stanky down south.
I will eventually add all the finished files on my thread which is like 2 posts, HAA. Back when I started this a while ago.
