installation DaVinci Resolve Studio on Centos

Post by 27lab » 2019/05/14 15:41:11

Dear all,

I need to use DaVinci Resolve Studio 15 on Centos, but when I install Centos 7.6 with a bootable USB, it freezes, and it shows “Kernel Panic – not syncing: Hard LOCKUP”

Image

My PC (MSi) conf:
- Processor Intel Core i7-8750H
- 16Go DDR4
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050Ti whit 4Go GDDR5
- SSD M.2 PCIe 512Go
So, at first, I tried to see if the version of the bios but it is the last. Then I tried to use another version of CentOS, the 7.5 then the 7.0. For the 7.5 I’ve got the same problem with the 7.6. With the 7.0 the installation worked but the ethernet card (killer E2500 Gigabit Ethernet Controller) didn’t’ detect my rj45 cable, I tried to install the pilots but even with them it didn’t work.
Then, I tried to boot with an iso which contained DaVinci Resolve and Centos 7.3 but the installation didn’t work too. (http://downloads.blackmagicdesign.com/D ... OS_7.3.iso) And to conclude I also tried to run centos on a VM, again with the bundle Centos 7.3 and DaVinci Resolve Studio, it runs normally but when I launch the Davinci software it loadd then just disappear. After this I make some research and find that the problem could be the NVIDIA Driver who wasn’t updated (I checked the graphical card of the VM it was an Nvidia) so I tried following this guide to update my drivers

But when I tried to update it, it crashed and asked for a nvidia adaptator but it’s a virtual machine.

Thanks

You need to post the crash screen.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
Use the FAQ Luke

When you first boot there is a screen with 3 options: install CentOS, Verify Media and Install, and Troubleshooting. Select Troubleshooting and under that you should see another menu and one of the options there is to install in basic VGA mode. Use that.

Did you ever get DaVinci Resolve Studio working with Centos? From what I read version 16 works better. I've got it running on Windows 7 and other have gotten it working on Ubuntu. I ask because I'm planning to build a new computer for DaVinci Resolve and I'd love to leave Windows behind so I'm doing as much homework before I pick the hardware in case there are known incompatibilities. I'd really like a reliable system I don't have to spend all my time doing sys-admin tasks instead of editing. Thanks.
