NVIDIA GPU units now failing on CENTOS7

[stfarley]

I have been using this hardware for over a year.
Recently the GPU work units have been failing.
If I pause and restart the slot it will eventually get a work unit that succeeds.
I have installed the latest NVIDIA drivers

Here is a sample from the log

The recent update to Core_22 uses a newer glibc than is available in CentOS 7. See this topic - viewtopic.php?f=74&t=37598.

They are looking into it, there may a fixed Core_22 version out in the near future that will use the version of glibc available on CentOS 7.

This issue will be fixed with the upcoming v0.0.19 of Core 22 ...

To avoid future issues like this, it would be a good idea to update to a distribution that provides more frequent updates.
