We will be taking shellx out of service late Friday evening and returning it to service early Saturday morning.  It will be up and down intermittently during this time frame in order to attempt to fix a problem with gstreamer audio so that flash videos and games and other applications that use gstreamer will properly produce sound.

Sound was broken by a kernel upgrade provided by the CentOS team that did not include all of the necessary drivers for gstreamer.  We will be rolling the kernel back to a working version or possibly compiling a kernel if we can’t get one supplied by the CentOS team to work.
