Finally, after 36 hours of jack.

I like to think of Seti@home as similar to NASA, except nobody gets killed if things go wrong.

You're the man...

I just pulled down 20 WU on the WINBLOZE box.. I looked at the Nix box and Im getting this message..

2004-07-03 03:48:59 [---] Fewer active results than CPUs; requesting more work

What does " 'i386-unknown-freebsd4.5' not found " detail ??????
Does this mean I'm not getting WU because it doen't know the FreeBSD I compiled for ???

Yeah, it seems like it doesn't recognise FreeBSD.

I still have 5 WU's left in my cache :D

everyone is geting wu but me :( i got 20 something machines only 7 have predictor on them so i have like 13 to 15 machines doing nothing. Good thing I didnt switch all my machies i still have like 20 more running s@h classic

I have three machines, all connected to SETI and one also connected to predictor. The one with predictor isnt' getting any SETI WU's whereas the other two are. I've set SETI at 66%, being my preferred project, but it currently has 0 work units, and when I click to Update the project it doesnt seem to request any WU's from the scheduler... obviously because Predictor downloaded enough WU's to last a week (for some unknown reason).

Is this what BOINC is supposed to be doing... is it supposed to download more WU's only when the total amount of available work across all projects is insufficient, or should it be working on a project-by-project basis??

From what I have read if you have run Seti for awhile when you attach to another Project like Pedictor it will only give you WU from the new Project until it catches up to the other Project no matter what you set your preferences to.

I have mine set to 1000 Seti & 1 Predictor but all I get is more WU's from Predictor ... I've only managed to get 3 WU's from Seti in the last 8 day's but have got a ton from Predictor ...

PS: Drinking12, nobody's really getting any WU's from Seti Live any more than you, a lucky few manage to get some every now & then, don't feel like the Lone Ranger out there...

Well, no problem guys, I just got 20 units!!!!!!!

Still waiting to know what to do with 18 ready to report from Beta, since 10 days ago. Shall I just get them into the waste basket???

Xi3.....reporting from China....uh yes I am an American...19:47 local time
07-03-04.....recieved 13 Wu's......changed my prefs keeping enough work for 5 to 7 days......now have turned it back to 3 to 5 days.....I turned it up to get enough work just in case we hit another WU drought....signing off 22:03 local time....

It is 1:45pm Central and I just got 22 Wu. About time. I have mine set for 4.5 to 6 days. Only one machine here. You guys are dedicated to have multiple machines. Where do you keep that many machines?

Looks like i got 25 units? I wish they would restore some of the funtions back to the web site. This whole thing reminds me of when the brought out 3.0 in classic.

China, eh? Dying to know what you do. I changed my prefs so I'll have enough WUs if we go down again, too.

now...let's see if they can keep us fed. :)

After 4 days I got 4 WU, maybe They are getting things fixed.

FWIW

Around 16:00 - 17:00 UTC I got my full cache of WU's on all 3 machines.

I opened up my cache a bit more, and it got filled w/i the next several hours.

Strat

I have mine set to a minimum of 3 days now.

No, you aren't doing anything wrong.

Perhaps this message from the front page will be of some assistance?

"July 2, 2004
We made some progress and are turning the project on. You may still have problems getting work. If that is the case, you might consider switching back to SETI@home Classic for the next few days.
