It is the 16th & I haven't got any work from you folks yet. I should talk I have had some puter issues and no time to come up on seti for a while so I am not exactly on the beam either.

This little notebook has pretty much been retired but I just downloaded the BOINC client to a new Ubuntu 12.4 x64 system and the silly thing has let me connect with 3 different projects, yet none of them have downloaded squat. I don't even want the other two, I just need something to help with the burn-in for that new box and SETI has always been my "go-to" for this. I'm SO disappointed right now.... ID: 1250389 ·

According to your hosts's 'All tasks for computer 6189385' page you have a Astropulse task in progress, that's going to keep you single core host going for quite a while, so no more work required, yet.

Claggy I appreciate the input, but you missed the main gist of my post. I know the notebook is working. That isn't my concern at the moment. The notebook is being retired and it is being replaced by a x6 desktop. It is this very desktop that will not download anything from any project at the moment. I know it isn't the responsibility of this group to handle any of the other projects, but since I really don't care for or want any of the others, I thought I would come here and see if there is even a snowball's chance in a hot place that someone in this thread would have any insight into why.
