Re: mach64 driver, latest update in CentOS 6.8, symbol lookup error

Thank you AndyBe.  
 I downloaded the files maintaining the directory structure.  I will take the backup machine and try this out.  Since the failed machine was my main machine, I will use another machine of the same type.  I have a few more things to clean up on the main machine.
Thank you again.

Attempts to start it manually result in one of the following messages depending upon which OS is loaded.  I initially loaded it as 64 bit and when that did not work I tried the 32 bit version of the OS.  The graphics card is part of the motherboard so swapping it out is not an option.  This is a server and there is no AGP slot.

I then changed my repos to point to the original ISO, but there were too many dependencies broken to get the system to groupinstall the X Window System and desktop.  I tried forcing in just the driver, but it fails with a message about the driver being at a different release than the X server.
