Very detailed explanation and good guide... but are you not aware that boinc is in the ubuntu repos? All that can be condensed down to:I tried to install BOINC on my FSC ESPRIMO Mobile with Fedora 9 using "yum install ..." as root, but this DIDNT TAKE CARE of anything for the client, only the manager was installed and now complains about not beeing able to connect to the client ! Does someone know whom i have to ask for a corrected RPM for installing BOINC with Fedora 9 ? MfG, MEX PS: please reply to http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=2896 |

... Does someone know whom i have to ask for a corrected RPM for installing BOINC with Fedora 9 ? ...Seems that the RPM is correct, although the instructions for setting up BOINC need work to be more userfriendly :rolleyes: After a few hours of trial-and-error i was finally able to start the client, connect the manager to it, add projects to the manager and finally download some WU. MfG, MEX |

6 - From inside your BOINC folder, type ./boincmgr and hit enter. When I hit this command I only get "Cannot execute binary file". May someone help me? |

6 - From inside your BOINC folder, type ./boincmgr and hit enter. What does the command "file boinc*" say ? Have you a Linux x86_64 and using the 32 bit version or vice versa ? |

Also, finally managed to install and run UBUNTU 7.10, did upgrade inmediatly to 8.04. And used theSuper User Do Command (sudo):sudo apt-get install boinc-client boinc-manager. Found it in the aplications map and started it, also got some WU's. And for my VISTA Quad, also WU's, nice when something, especially using it for the first time, also works ,) And I'am about half turned on to LINUX :) |

Hi Toby, I guess an apt-get install should be working for any debian based distro, wouldn't it. I will try it on my laptop ;-) A few words in my language German: Danke für dieses Projekt - ich find's einfach nur Cool! Checkt doch auch mal meine Projekte aus: Suchmaschinenoptimierung Solingen, http://www.esoterik-elfen-traumgeister.de |
