linux: problem installing 6.12.8
(Message 36212)
Posted 26 Dec 2010 by Chris Post: Comparing the sizes of the coreclient, the build of version 6.10.58 (from boinc.berkeley.edu/dl) is larger than the 6.12.8. Therefore, I think the libraries in the release 6.10.x are statically linked. Ubuntu now uses eglibc. |

Posted 4 Jul 2009 by Chris Post: Is there something like libcudart.so in the packages? What happens if you copy the file http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/browser/tags/boinc_core_release_6_8_4/coprocs/CUDA/posix/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/libcudart.so to /var/lib/boinc ?

Posted 2 Jul 2009 by Chris Post: You may add the Repositories for OpenSUSE 11.0 and 11.1 from OpenSUSE Buildservice to this thread. There are new Coreclient/Manager .rpms for the 6.8.x development version: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/enzokiel/ Using the package search, I found a lot of packages, but I did not test them: http://software.opensuse.org/search?q=boinc The standard OpenSUSE repos for 11.0 and 11.1 are of version 6.2.18, without CUDA. |

Settings for best throughput?
(Message 22391)
Posted 12 Jan 2009 by Chris Post: If the application doesn't a correct checkpoint just before pausing you will lose some of the calculations and waste CPU time. Keeping the paused application in memory can cause errors if there is no ECC-RAM in your computer. Swapping may also slow down BOINC work and other tasks if there is not plenty of RAM... |

does wcg has server problems?
(Message 21478)
Posted 24 Nov 2008 by Chris Post: What are the version numbers of the operating system, libcurl and openssl/nss? You may turn on some more logging flags in cc-config, like <file_xfer_debug> and <http_debug>. If libcurl is not compiled with ssl, you will get exactly these error message if the core client tries to communicate with WCG. Please read http://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Client_configuration |

(Message 21208)
Posted 12 Nov 2008 by Chris Post: You may test if these bugfix works: http://curl.haxx.se/auto/cvshistory.html - Rainer Canavan filed bug #2255627 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2255627) which pointed out that a program using libcurl's multi interface to download a HTTPS page with a libcurl built powered by OpenSSL, would easily get silly and instead hand over SSL details as data instead of the actual HTTP headers and body. This happened because libcurl would consider the connection handshake done too early.http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2255627 It is now in the latest nightly tarball. |

Posted 12 Oct 2008 by Chris Post: Building BoincmanagerGUI 6.3.14 Rev. 16189 now works fine. The project list in "Attach to project" window is a little bit squezzed, may be a WxWidgets 2.8.8 issue. With 6.2.18 and 6.2.19 builds on Ubuntu 8.10 beta or the boincmgr 6.2.18 executable 6.2.18 from debian experimental it is similar. The Berkeley builds are OK. Screenshot |

Posted 31 Jul 2008 by Chris Post: I tried it several times on Ubuntu 8.04/8.10-alpha: 1. Put the .sh file in a temporary directory 2. run chmod ugo+x on it and execute it 3. cd BOINC 4. copy the core client, manager and boinccmd to /usr/bin and look if the file names are the same as in the Ubuntu/Debian init script. 5. copy the 6.2.14 /locale directory to /var/lib/boinc-client/ 6. change owner and rights 7. the icons of 5.10.45. should also work with 6.2.14 8. test if the symbolic link to ca-bundle.crt is working |

A new way to download BOINC (Mirrors & p2p)
(Message 17705)
Posted 6 Jun 2008 by Chris Post: 1500 TFLOPS by now... The number of downloads from boincdl.ssl seems to increase, this week I got download rates of about 15 kbytes per second in the evening time. What is the bandwidth of the download server? Maybe we could build a database of mirrorsites for easy creating of metalink files. Some metalinks or torrents could be published on the download sites. I made 4 .torrent-files for the Berkeley Linux/Windows builds of 5.10.45 on boinc.homeunix.com/dl to test. |

You should not select "Leave applications in memory". The value of "Switch between applications every xx minutes" should be set higher. |

Now, here ist a third .torrent, for the 64 Bit OpenSuse 10.2 .sh-file from rechenaugust.de, I only changed the name. The versions for 10.3/11.0 will not run on 10.2. http://christian-rueger.de/boinc_opensuse10.2_5.10.45_x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.sh.torrent http://christian-rueger.de/boinc_opensuse10.2_5.10.45_x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.sh You may seed it, if you want. |
