Hi there. I have recently taken up seti after a long absence. While trying to accumulate extra work units for the outages I cleared my local preferences. After doing that my boinc manager downloaded S@H version 5.28. I had version 6.03 working. The next work units were assigned to version 5.28 instead of the newest version. Is there a way to force new work units to use 6.03 ? Or is there a way to sort the manager out so it remembers it should use 6.03 ? I'm using Ubuntu 8.04LTS x86-64 Boinc 6.10.56 Many thanks John |

After finding this page http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/apps.php I have answered my own question. The latest version for Linux x86_64 is 5.28. The manager was using a 32bit version before. 8 Oct 2007 seems like a long time ago. But if it works leave it alone. Thanks John |

If you have knowledge on where the data folder is you do have the option to use the optimized apps as well. http://www.arkayn.us/seti/LX64_AKV8_AP5_SSE3.tar.gz Your computer does support SSE3 so I chose that one. |

Hi there Arkayn. Thanks for the optimised application. I do know where to put this, it is a case of sudo mv to get the files into the folder. Thanks again John |
