If you have problems compiling the boinc client or the v4.xx boinc_seti client(app_info.xml included) you can download it from ftp://quit.homelinux.org (Safe but bandwith limeted)

Compiled on Gentoo Linux running Kernel 2.4.26, Glibc 2.3X

Hi,

What gcc flags did you use when compiling the client? The reason I ask is my Alphastation ev6 creates a binary that takes roughly twice as long to process a work unit than an ev56/ev67 binary that I've downloaded :-) It seems to get to around 20% and then the expected completion time starts to go up. I used very conservative CFLAGS when compiling seti/boinc, just -O3 and -mcpu=ev6.

TIA
