I've done some Googling and it seems that is a pretty unique error, belonging to programming that was not native to English. Seems to only exist with Asus motherboard software. Linux laptop: record uptime: 1511d 20h 19m (ended due to the power brick giving-up) |

Greetings Ocean, Thanks for the info. I do build with only ASUS motherboards. Bill G. says he saw it and did nothing and it hasn't shown back up. We will ignore it for now too. If it persists, I'll research it a bit further. :) Keep on BOINCing...! :) CAPT Siran d'Vel'nahr - L L & P _\\// Winders 11 OS? "What a piece of junk!" - L.

A plug for the Windoze nay sayers! I recently purchased a Lumia 640. Excellent phone! I can't complain about it a bit. Unbelievable battery life. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, DOWNLOAD WINDOZE PHONE 10! Downloaded an app that will restore it to Win 8 or 8.1, really don't care at this point. Upon installing the Windoze Phone 10 update (pushed from AT&T I suppose) I lost all PC connectivity; usb, Bluetooth... I couldn't add or remove any files. Unbelievable...or not.... If the reset app works I'll give an update. Otherwise, my Win 10 PC is really working well. All "spyware" turned off. |

The update on my Galaxy S4 from Jelly Bean to Lollipop wasn't suppose to be, but someone decided that my phone needed updating without my permission.

I only went to Windows for a test drive. I just came off of contract and the Lumia 640 was only $60. I had to at least give it a chance. The jury is deliberating... |

Question to those who have managed a successful transition to Linux, how many of you are DUAL GPU crunchers and how did you go with the driver installations.?? This is what is stopping me from crossing over from the Win 7 to Linux. Regards |

I need to be able to put my phone in my pocket. I have guys on the job (electrical construction) who hang huge phones from their hips. I don't see how they do it. Even the Lumia 640 is a little large for my taste. I just came over from a HTC One Mini. I haven't given up on that one yet... It taunts me from the shelf it sits on... |

Tazzduke - have a look around for posts by petri33, he's running 4 Nvidia GPUs in a Linux box that is the second highest cruncher around just now. Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

But do be aware, petri33 is running MB app "Cuda 7.50 special" which he made himself, so it's only (for my knowledge) Linux running that app. But for sure, petri33 knows how to run multiple Nvidia GPU's in one host. |

Question to those who have managed a successful transition to Linux, how many of you are DUAL GPU crunchers and how did you go with the driver installations.?? Hi tazzduke, I recently converted 5 of my 6 crunchers from Windows to Linux Mint 17.2 and installed Nvidia drivers using the sgfxi scripts. You can read more about the scripts here: http://smxi.org/docs/sgfxi-manual.htm X needs to be stopped prior to installation. To install, you run (as root): cd /usr/local/bin && wget -Nc smxi.org/sgfxi && chmod +x sgfxi && sgfxi and just follow the prompts. For future driver upgrades, you simply run: sgfxi It couldn't have been any easier. Installation gave me everything I needed. I'm able to run CUDA and OpenCL apps without issue. All of my Linux crunchers have multiple GPUs and BOINC had no problem detecting and using them. |

Greetings All Thankyou for the replies and also I will do a bit more reading as well. Regards Tazzduke :-) |

The Thing That Wouldn't Die......... Well, overnight M$ decided apparently that what I really, really needed was to upgrade to Window$ 10. So there it was waiting for the install ok from me. Already downloaded the 10mb "upgrade" without my approval. If the Swiss or the EU is serious about suing them, I wish they would get going and end this madness. ![]() "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |
