Posted 9 Aug 2019 by Coleslaw Post: I don't believe there is a way to do this outside of downloading work to say a virtual machine and then possibly cloning the virtual machine. However, some smarter people in here may have a better way. |

Posted 19 Mar 2019 by Coleslaw Post: Did they disband already? That email doesn't appear to work and the Discord server I was on apparently I am no longer on. I cannot DM the person that invited me as he was not yet on my friend's list and his settings are to only receive messages from people on his server or friend's list. |

Fire Stick runs on Android 5, could we use for BOINC?
(Message 88441)
Posted 13 Oct 2018 by Coleslaw Post: I would be worried about their cooling capabilities. Probably a lot of throttling due to thermal issues even if you get it side loaded. Chromecasts don't allow for installing apps directly to it. You would have to find some way to actually hack it just to side-load the BOINC software. |

Are there projects that require vast memory?
(Message 88090)
Posted 17 Sep 2018 by Coleslaw Post: I know the ECM subproject at YoYo@home can eat a lot of memory at times. Last time we ran that for a challenge, we were seeing up to 11GB RAM required for many of the work units. Other ideas would be to run the projects that use Virtualbox. Some of those can use 3+GB RAM as well. And of course as mentioned above, setting up a Ramdrive and having your BOINC data directory in it to speed up processing on projects that may have high IO would be a good option as well. |

That is my teams forums where one of our members took the time to do some screen shots. |

(Message 84808)
Posted 16 Feb 2018 by Coleslaw Post: You gave the updated log entries that now detect OpenCL which before it didn't. So that is progress. However, we would also need to see the rest of the logs where the projects state there is a problem or missing component. Please copy the first 50 or so lines from a fresh BOINC startup. |

Posted 16 Feb 2018 by Coleslaw Post: It also will not work with Milkyway@home as that project will need Double Precision capable cards. Some projects it "may" still work with off the top of my head would be: SETI SETI BETA Collatz PrimeGrid - PPS Sieve sub project Moo! Wrapper It has been too long since I attempted Einstein or Albert. |

Posted 26 Jan 2018 by Coleslaw Post: Are you not able to download it directly from here? https://boinc.berkeley.edu/download_all.php or https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/boinc_7.4.53.apk I ask because I'm not sure why it isn't recommended unless your phone is talking about installing from 3rd parties AKA side loading. It should work just fine. |

Posted 11 Dec 2017 by Coleslaw Post: There is actually various applications out there designed to do a "clean state" on a scheduled cycle. Many universities, libraries, kiosks, etc... have setups to prevent the garbage that accumulates from resulting in constant maintenance. If they have a true IT staff, they can install BOINC and have their "solution" included in the base "image" or exclusion list. However, it would be best that you were NOT the one doing the installs but rather have the IT staff do them. |
