62) Message boards : Questions and problems : Libraries missing - 6.12.33 on OpenSuse 14 (Message 38984) Posted 16 Jul 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: Rom knows about this and will try to get a build VM that will not break things for other distros (notably Fedora and OpenSUSE). Right now he's using a Ubuntu LTS VM. I don't any more than that.
63) Message boards : Questions and problems : bonic manager in "retrieving current status" for a long while (Message 37803) Posted 14 May 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: I'm not sure what yum is doing. I've never installed it that way. If you want to BOINC to run in its own user account, these instructions are the way to go. It's all CLI stuff, but things like creating the account can be done though the GUI if you prefer. The init.d script you need is in there too. There was a wiki page on BOINC/Fedora but I can never find it when I want it. It might be something as dumb as chkconf boinc on (don't quote me on the syntax or the actual command) to get the core client into the start up routine. And me personally, I don't have the manager running unless I'm checking up on it. I open a bash shell and do `boincmg` and that'll start the mananger. I just emailed Eric about that link with a possible necessary addition. Pots back if you get stuck. I can't promise an answer but I'll do my best to find it.

67) Message boards : Questions and problems : bonic manager in "retrieving current status" for a long while (Message 37711) Posted 8 May 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: bummp: How do you have BOINC installed? From the package manager or just downloaded and running to your home directory? It almost sounds like boinc (the client) isn't running. Can you do ps aux \| grep boinc I'm not sure if that's the right thing to grep for, but it works for me (with boinc manually installed to its own user account).
68) Message boards : Questions and problems : Delayed resume from screensaver - high disk usage (Message 37710) Posted 8 May 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: I'm sorry PJ. I simply don't know. I'm not a Windows person. I do know that the beginning of E@H workunits are very disk intensive.
69) Message boards : Projects : QuantumFIRE (Message 37249) Posted 21 Mar 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: Sorry, I haven't heard from Martin lately.
70) Message boards : Questions and problems : Developers requesting your help on BOINC issues... (Message 36794) Posted 9 Feb 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: Personally. I'd drop the word cycle. Or I'd change to x% of the CPU resource/capacity/capability. I can check with my boss to see how easy/hard it would be to translate into Korean. Yes, a sample size of one isn't much. :=)
71) Message boards : Questions and problems : 64 bit version sometimes goes into (x86) (Message 36666) Posted 30 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: I just partitioned and installed Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit alongside my Windows 7 64-bit installation. However, I may have accidentally installed the 32-bit BOINC program on Ubuntu. How can I check and make sure that I have the 64-bit BOINC client on both Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows 7? Both BOINC clients are 6.10.58. Thanks in advance. How did you install BOINC? If you used the Ubuntu package manager, I have no idea. If you downloaded the .sh from Berkeley, just look at the file name. The 64 bit version will be named something like boinc_versionnumber_x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.sh. The 32 bit version will be named something like boinc_versionnumber_i686-pc-linux-gnu.sh.
72) Message boards : Web interfaces : BOINC-wide Teams (Message 36582) Posted 26 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: You actually have to create a BOINC wide team. It doesn't happen automagicaly.... Or perhaps I'm misunderstanding the issue.
73) Message boards : Projects : QuantumFIRE (Message 36504) Posted 21 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: Honestly, I don't know.
74) Message boards : Questions and problems : milkyway@home (Message 36455) Posted 16 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: Are you using an account manager such as BAM! or GridRepublic?
75) Message boards : Projects : News on Project Outages (Message 36446) Posted 15 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: Some QuantumFire news from Martin I do have some problems with funding the continuation of QuantumFIRE, but I hope that I can solve this issue in the next weeks ... though it might take until the end of March, sorry :(
76) Message boards : Questions and problems : Error connecting to local clients (Message 36445) Posted 15 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: Sounds like the core client is crashing. Check task manager to see if boinc.exe is running. Look for stderr.txt in your BOINC data directory to see if there is any information in there. (Sorry, best I can do. I'm a Linux gal and haven't dealt with BOINC on Windows in the last couple years)
77) Message boards : Projects : QuantumFIRE (Message 36379) Posted 9 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: I believe they are moving. They were also getting ready to move from alpha to beta status. I should drop Martin and email to see how things are going.
78) Message boards : Questions and problems : linux boinc not connecting to localhost (Message 36372) Posted 8 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: How did you install BOINC? From the package manager or from the Berkeley .sh file? What it sounds like is that the core client is either not starting or crashing. When you're getting the can't connect to local host message, open a terminal windows and type top and then hit enter. Do you see BOINC anywhere on the list? It might be called something like boinc-client (I'm not an OpenSuse person, so I don't know for sure). Have you tried uninstalling the ATI drivers? That's the thing that changed. If uninstalling let's BOINC run, then we've pinpointed the cause. And I'll try to find someone who knows the distro (and ATI cards) better than I do.
79) Message boards : Questions and problems : Boinc runs 32 bit client application instead of 64 bit in Linux (Message 36370) Posted 8 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: Well, your core client is 64 bit. I see Seti has 64 bit Linux apps. I have no idea. Jord?
80) Message boards : The Lounge : User Average (Message 36315) Posted 2 Jan 2011 by KSMarksPsych Post: RAC (recent average credit) can still go up. It is updated when credits are granted. Since many projects use some sort of redundancy, there is usually a time gap between reporting work to the server and getting credit. Go to whatever project you crunch for, and you'll be able to see a list of work you've done recently. Some will have the credits pending. When your "wingmen" return the work and it goes through validation, you'll get your credit. RAC will then be updated. It's also a decaying average. Off the top of my head, I don't remember the formula (Jord probably does :-p) and I'm too lazy to search for it.
