Posted 23 Jun 2008 by nevermore Post: But the Linux build seems to be the same as from May 29th... I believe that is dependent on the distro. I'm using Kubuntu and it updated (meta package) to the stable release shortly after Mozilla released. |

What project has the shortest task times
(Message 17771)
Posted 11 Jun 2008 by nevermore Post: One suggestion would be Rosetta@Home. You can select work unit run times of "not specified", 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, etc. ... up to 24 hours. |

Computer upgrade question
(Message 16495)
Posted 6 Apr 2008 by nevermore Post: Pentium processors are "old". The way to go now, is "Core" processors. Upgrading RAM is a way to breathe new life into older machines. Setting the rated speed and BOINC issues aside, I believe overall it helps when increasing the amount of RAM (256 -> 512 -> 1Gb, -> 2Gb.,etc.) of not having a system use virtual memory (swap space) as much. It is quite a bit faster to utilize RAM than the HDD. edit- I changed out the RAM on a P4 the other day, from 1Gb pc2-3200 333Mhz to 2Gb pc2-4200 533Mhz and find that the box is a bit snappier and rarely needs to use virtual memory for what I run on it. It is dependent on what memory intensive applications are being run (I'm not a gamer per se...) I'd suggest throwing as much RAM @ as fast speed as you can afford. And not necessarily the high dollar stuff like Corsair (there is a cheaper line by the company called "Value Select"), I'd suggest PNY (never had any problems with the brand and it is priced reasonable) |

Install problem
(Message 13630)
Posted 7 Nov 2007 by nevermore Post: Thanks Jord, I'll it a try. I noticed also that I forgot to type a backslash in my original post. Weird. I noticed months ago at Einstein@home, that editing my profile would sometimes cause mysterious backslashes (or maybe it was forward slashes) to appear (multiply - one would become two) on edits. I don't know if it still happens. Hmmmm, maybe that is where the slashes gravitate to. |

BOINC client :
Install problem
(Message 13580)
Posted 4 Nov 2007 by nevermore Post: I am using an admin account so, no. To clarify on my earlier post, I had no problem with the Username: box being filled out automatically on earlier BOINC installs (only today when I tried 5.10.28, 5.10.20, and 5.8.16 in that order). The protection aspect is plausible though but I have no idea what may have changed and when (this box gets used as testbed quite a bit). Oh well, it's all good and I'll know in the future. Thanks for the help. |
