Hi,

please forgive me if my english is not perfect...

I put a Raspbian Pi running Raspbian Linux into my network and installed the client (BOINC and Seti). Whenever I check with the "top" command Boinc/Setiathome is top 1, but does is really calculate? It looks like it did not finish a "package" (is this the right term?). I have only commandline ssh connection to the Raspberry. So my question is: How can I see what's going on? The last (and first) connection to the project was 14 days ago...

"sudo boinccmd --get_tasks" gives me the following status:
1) -----------

WU name: 25se12aa.4058.74573.438086664200.12.93

Any hints will be appreciated!!!
Thanks

I think you will find this line indicates the progress:
fraction done: 0.460584


from which I would assume that task is less than half completed.

And this line
current CPU time: 655807.500000

says how much CPU time - about 180hours.

Which suggests there's another ~200hours to run
