SPARCL10 was sick!

Early this morning, SPARCL10, our main machine, suffered a video card failure.  I didn't notice it until 11:00 or so.  Poor L10 would not fire up, even after swapping power supplies.  But after I swapped the video card, L10 came right up, and resumed its duties.
We're still looking at some improvements to SPOCS.  Also still working on the mysterious USB serial port problem on L12.  Fedora 15 has the proper driver for the USB serial port, but sometimes, the system does not recognize the port.  More on this when I know more.
For our American readers, have a great Memorial Day weekend!
