	It seems since I upgraded from 4.43 menubar to 5.2.13, I've been getting many a client error in my results. What is a signal 5? What can I do to fix this? <core_client_version>5.2.13</core_client_version> <message>process got signal 5 </message> <stderr_txt> dyld: seti@home-G5-a5 Undefined symbols: seti@home-G5-a5 undefined reference to _vDSP_maxv expected to be defined in Accelerate seti@home-G5-a5 undefined reference to _vDSP_maxvi expected to be defined in Accelerate seti@home-G5-a5 undefined reference to _vDSP_meanv expected to be defined in Accelerate seti@home-G5-a5 undefined reference to _vDSP_vrsum expected to be defined in Accelerate seti@home-G5-a5 undefined reference to _vDSP_vsdiv expected to be defined in Accelerate seti@home-G5-a5 undefined reference to _vDSP_zvmags expected to be defined in Accelerate </stderr_txt> (a5 is the altivec-optimized seti client by Rick of MaCNN team http://writhe.org.uk/seti@home/ which had been working fine on 4.43, and still works fine under 5.2.13 on my other machine) ____________ BOINC 5.8.17, SETI@home optimized 5.18 v7.1 g4no graphics G5 dual 2GHz OSX 10.3.9 G4 dual 867MgHz OSX 10.4.3

	alpha-5 and its kin (alpha-5.2) only work with OS X 10.4. Tiger added a couple functions that we use in quite a few places for speedup purposes. You'll have to go back to the Panther-specific compile of alpha-4 on the site you linked to, at least until I compile a OS X 10.3.9-compatible binary. It should just be a matter of changing some Xcode settings, but it's midterm season, so some patience is in order.

I noticed there is a 52-g4 in your directory -- is this stable for a G4 running Tiger? ____________ BOINC 5.8.17, SETI@home optimized 5.18 v7.1 g4no graphics G5 dual 2GHz OSX 10.3.9 G4 dual 867MgHz OSX 10.4.3

Yes, it's stable, but I wouldn't count on it being any faster than alpha-5. In fact, there's a good chance that it'll be slower. (This is just a consequence of the speed tweaks between alpha-5 and alpha-5.2.) If I were you, I'd stick to the G4 binary I've linked to from the thread.

	Hi Andrew, Powerbook G4 10.4.5 using 5.2.13 without problems. Keith. alpha-5 and its kin (alpha-5.2) only work with OS X 10.4. Tiger added a couple functions that we use in quite a few places for speedup purposes.
