Hi,

I have installed "boinc-app-seti" on my raspberry pi. OK
Then I have identified myself on the seti project. OK

but after hours it still doesn't stat running any task :'(

Do you have any idea ?

P.S. : I'm doing everything with boinccmd sine I don't have X on this machine.


copy of the get_state command :

$ sudo -u boinc boinccmd --get_state

Without an actual log there's not much to go on but hunches. And to find the log, you'll need to have started the BOINC binary with the --redirectio command. Else there's no log in stdoutdae.txt

So, if you didn't start with boinc --redirectio, please do so and instruct BOINCCMD to make contact with the project, through boinccmd --project https://setiathome.berkeley.edu update, then check stdoutdae.txt for the contents and post those here.

it was started with --redirectio :)

I think the error is

06-Feb-2014 13:30:23 [SETI@home] Your app_info.xml file doesn't have a usable version of SETI@home v7.

But what should I do about that ?

Thanks ! it works ! :-)

interesting, what is seti performance on that hardware?

also, maybe anyone know, what's about paralella 99$ "supercomputer"
performance in SETI / boinc?
http://shop.adapteva.com/

In Seti/BOINC I wouldn't know, but at Einstein there's this thread about Parallella, Raspberry Pi, FPGA & All That Stuff.

The RAC of my overclocked Raspberry Pi is 24.92. I'm hoping someone creates a version of Seti@Home that uses the Raspberry PI's GPU ( http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/5934 ) to speed it up!
