Welcome back, Mark!

I'm trying to get the full total from reading the thread. It's easier than figuring it out from the database since there's no way to separate these donations from others (Other than the $1000 donations). I think that it's $9000 including the donations of less than $1000. Can anyone check my math?

Where it ends up will set the amount of RAM that comes with it.

Thanks for all your donations!

Eric

Also, just for fun, I have a gtx470 running on a XP/32 AMD 2.61 GHz duo at 1089 Gflops but my gtx470 running on a W7/64 i7 930 2.8 GHz only gets 726 Gflops. WTF?

I am with you Todd, Pappa wake up.
I am the go to girl when it comes to Cash donation issues and pretty clueless about hardware needs. But I can tell you, that the wish list server is about $3,000 under the current donations.
I have secured a promise that pics are will be posted once the new hardware hits the Seti Lab. Maybe the folks will we kind enough to let us know, what else will be needed to totally make this a Seti Volunteer Cruncher/Server etc pp.

I have it set to shut down when the cpu fan speed drops to save the hardware, I had stupidly left some cables tied up with a rubber band which of course dried oit perished and snapped. Totally my fault whoops!

Even tho the server status page shows that several thousand Astropulse WU's are available, I always get the message "no Astropulse or Astropulse 5 jobs available - sending alternate jobs" or something like that. So ... what does one need to do to get Astropulse WU's???

It is a Belkin G Router wireless one which I have had for a few years

Have you bought anything new lately? Like a cordless phone that might be on or near the same frequency?

No I have not brought anything lately and my ISP have got no ideas I only seem to have trouble in July/August like line dropping before I had this problem something to do with re-sync the line. Maybe they are doing something at night with the exchange would like to go cable etc still on the same copper lines that have been in this bungalow before I moved in 39 years ago.

The times I cleared my ghosts was on Friday mornings just after the project comes back up. Just set no new tasks, run down what you have left and detach/attach and redo your app_info. By then most of my work was done and I don't lose too much. It also gives me plenty of time to refill.

As for getting back on topic, right after the outage I jumped up to an all time high for me of ~40,000+ pendings. By the next day I was back down to ~25,000. I am now back up to over 30,000 though. Oh,and Questor, I have a bunch of your ghosts I'm waiting on and I think I've seen a couple from Todd too! :-)

Mine has not been working since the first 3 day outage. I was wondering if I was the only one affected. :-S

I get the page header ok but there's nothing below it

T.A.

see if stdoutae.old goes back far enough?

Didn't notice any message...

Did you search stdoutdae.txt for that message?

I have had a user state that they recieved a Detach and Reattach message for no apparent reason. Can anyone else confirm this?

though no doubt the newer WDDM drivers still have some room to mature until they reach similar efficiency to the XP ones, and under heavy loading cache effects will come into play as well.

Jason

Hi Jason.
What version drivers are you referring too? I'm currently running 3 tasks on a GTX470 under XP-32 using 258.96 drivers and V32_30_14 dll's with the V6.10 CUDA app. They are taking between 20 and 40 mins per task depending on the AR of the unit.

Is this the most efficient combination for XP? If not, what combination do you recommend ?

T.A.

I could be wrong, but I thought multiple Cuda contexts on one GPU is only possible under the WDDM driver model (Vista / Win7) and maybe only with cuda 3.0 & 3.1 builds (even less certain of that)

Jason

Guys, pardon this old non-Fermi character butting in but I think I might see a problem or two.

He is installing a new 470 card in place of "older" (probably non-Fremi) cards. He has an app_info with 6.09 but probably doesn't have an entry for 6.10 Fermi so of course it will trash all his 6.09s. Try reading up on what needs to be done here http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=60079

Have changed BOINC installation to not run as service. The outage is coming soon and this systeem needs a lot of jobs ;-)

You could try moving work over from the GPU to the CPU.
Start with a small number, this should get you GPU work as well.

Thats exactly what I am doing, but still not getting (requesting) any work :-(

Yes, connectivity has been restored and the project is on line. I'm still not sure what the problem was. Someone at UCB or CENIC must have fixed something, perhaps completely independently of our symptoms. Pings and traceroutes that had been dead in the water suddenly started going through.

I moved this tread out of News so that it would not longer show on the front page.

Whoa........I told you I don't understand this stuff....LOL.

Are they both picking up valid IP addresses? Where would I check that?
I do notice now that they seem to be handing off back and forth once in a while....
One is active for a while, and then the other. Not quickly, maybe when one can't make a connection soon enough, the OS tries the other and then continues with it.

My mobo has 2 LAN ports......
One is a Marvell and the other a Realtek.
I used to just have the Marvell enabled.
Just for an experiment, I enabled the Realtek and installed the drivers.
Now when the rig boots, I have both LAN ports enabled.

Windows 2K seems to use only the one that is first initialized upon booting, which now seems to be the Realtek. The Marvell is active, and shows a little bit of activity upon booting.

Can Win2k be setup to use both to share the load? Or use one for one program and the other for another? Or will it only setup one internet connection at a time?

These are the settings that work for me.................



Please note the settings in line that says "(no restrictions if equal)"
