Hi All,

Just made my 1st 1 Million total.

I guess my next milestone will be my fist PC to make an individual million.

Cheers all.

I often wonder how many I would have had,
If I'd been able to keep going from 2003.??

Anyway... onwards

Hi,

A very minor milestone for me, does not compare to the big numbers posted here.

I have made it to 100K, only another 900K to my 1st million.

mmm
I guess my sig count is lagging my account page.
4) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : Upgrade CPU - BOINC & SETI@HOME (Message 1617296)

Post:
Unless you plan to change out from an Intel to an AMD processor, or from an AMD to an Intel processor, or from a 32bit to a 64bit processor, it shouldn't matter much.
These changes give your host a new hostID, so you may want to run your cache down prior to changing over, just to be safe.

BOINC will automatically do a benchmark when it detects changes like this.


Hi Ageless,

Many Thanks...
It's a change from one Intel to another Intel, just changing from a 84Watt to 45Watt device.
I only have small mini ITX PC's, and 1 is getting very warm.

Hi,

I plan to upgrade one of my PC's CPU. I have Googled & Searched the Forum.
Are there any steps I need to take with regards to BOINC Manager, or any WU's that are already in progress.?

Will I need to use the "Benchmark" option to do any re-calibration.?

Thanks - Dave

Hi,

I have SETI@Home running on 3 PC's all O.K

Out of curiosity I put it on my Google Nexus(2013) Tablet, and I'm getting errors.

Only 2 validated from 64. Any ideas.?
I have reduced CPU's to 2, and memory to use only 50%, no change
I guess I need to remove it.

Thanks... Dave
9) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : BOINC Manager - Statistics Tab - Date Resolution.? (Message 1612510)

Hi Ageless,

Thanks...
I installed from repository via Synaptic
The graphs are present, but one is incorrect time frame.

This one is O.K from 1 PC, the graph shows increments of 1 day.installed 6th Dec



This is the problem one, the graph increments 3 days at a time
It shows 30 days from Nov, I installed this 9th Dec, this is actually Linux Mint 17.



Many Thanks... Dave

Hi,

I have just returned after being away a long time.
I installed BOINC Manager & SETI@HOME on Friday 5th Dec on a Laptop & PC
They are running Linux Lite 2.0(Ubuntu 14.04 derivative)

They picked up data over night of the 6th Dec, and they are working fine.
When I look Statistics Tab they show graphs that have a 1 day increment.

Now on 9th Dec I installed on another PC, installed and running O.K
But...
The Statistics Tab is showing a graph that starts on 11th Nov
and it is in increments of 3 days. So I have a flat line 11th Nov to 9th Dec
Then a very sharp rise.
I have not found any settings for Graph settings... Any ideas/input welcome.

Dave

How can I get one in the UK.?

Thanks... Dave
