62) Message boards : Number crunching : Ryzen and Threadripper (Message 2051566) Posted 11 Jun 2020 by Tom M Post: First generation Threadrippers (especially 1950's) seem to be showing more and more on some of the BOINC projects I am participating in. I have pondered if it its related to the high number PCIe lanes they offer which might support the possibility of more than 6 gpus? But so far most of them are showing a tendency to run 1-2 gpus. The one exception I know of for sure is Kevin O's rig which has been running 4 gtx 1080ti's forever. Happy Thursday. Tom M
63) Message boards : Number crunching : Ryzen and Threadripper (Message 2051563) Posted 11 Jun 2020 by Tom M Post: I stumbled around trying to find a really low cost Am4 socket cpu and ended up with an Athlon 3000. My mistake. I needed a version 1/2 Ryzen CPU not a version three CPU. Once I got my latest X470 MB bios updated I got the Athlon running under Windows 10. The claim that this CPU is "adequate" to run light office tasks and browse the internet is probably true. But for some reason a 2 c/4t with iGPU doesn't have a lot of "snap" :) Anyway I broke down and bought a used 2200G to use for testing so I don't have to UN-install another version 2 CPU for testing every time I need to. My recommendation is that even office workers should start at 4 cores any more. So probably you minimum as a 2200G or one of the those other 4 core 1st gen Ryzen chips with a discrete gpu.

I kicked it back up to "unlimited" along with the Conv19 project's unlimited. And more than half of what I have been processing are re-sends. I am getting 01, 02, and even 03 files. Tom M
66) Message boards : Cafe SETI : What Are You Reading? (Message 2051241) Posted 6 Jun 2020 by Tom M Post: Something seriously Scientific... It about a new type of stellar explosion that was spotted in 2016 and 2018. Astronomers discover new class of cosmic explosions Blasts differ from 'ordinary' supernovae, gamma-ray bursts +1
67) Message boards : Cafe SETI : What Are You Reading? (Message 2051240) Posted 6 Jun 2020 by Tom M Post: Gokusen (ã”ãã›ã‚“) manga series by Kozueko Morimoto. Thank you for the additional information. I can see why you like it. Tom M
68) Message boards : Cafe SETI : What Are You Reading? (Message 2051239) Posted 6 Jun 2020 by Tom M Post: "The Gods Themselves" by Issac Asimov Besides being a darn good story this book as two other noteworthy things about it. 1) It was published as a Serial, 1) Galaxy 2) IF 3) Galaxy. These magazines were being published in alternate months at that time. 2) Critics claimed Issac Asimov couldn't write about sex. In this novel, he did write about (Alien) sex [I think I remember].

70) Message boards : Number crunching : SETI orphans (Message 2050760) Posted 1 Jun 2020 by Tom M Post: Tom, are you referring to a Windows host or a Linux host? The ca-certificates.crt bundle in Linux is in /etc/ssl. Tom, just follow JohnDK's post further up the thread and get the https://crt.sh/?d=1720081 certificate and then run the sudo update-ca-certificates command. Linux. I don't run R@H on Windows anymore. I want to Thank both John and Keith. It is in the process of downloading a new set of "stuff" so it can start doing R@H again. Tom M
71) Message boards : Number crunching : SETI orphans (Message 2050695) Posted 31 May 2020 by Tom M Post: Nope, they are up and running. Having no issues myself. You need to update your BOINC or SSL certificates. I ran the "update-ca-certificates --fresh" no luck. Re-installed BOINC from what I believe to be the latest archive. no luck. Reset project. no luck. Which CA cert should I be looking for to "manually edit" it? It looks like there is near a 100+ in the folder I finally tracked them to. World Community Grid's Cornvid19 is working fine. I can just drop R@H if I can't fix it. Tom M
72) Message boards : Number crunching : SETI orphans (Message 2050694) Posted 31 May 2020 by Tom M Post: Is Rosetta@Home down? I am getting a 24 hour wait even after a manual update attempt. Tom M Hi Tom...having a problem here too. I've updated everything, no go. Then tried to detach and re-attach Rosetta, since they have updated Rosetta to use SSL. I am not able to add the project....getting the message "failed to add project". Edit : Fixed it now. Needed to edit the ca-bundle in the BOINC program folder, to get rid rid of an old and outdated certificate. I run Ubuntu with the All-in-One version of BOINC. And cannot find a "ca-bundle" in that folder. Any ideas? Tom

76) Message boards : Number crunching : Ryzen and Threadripper (Message 2050495) Posted 28 May 2020 by Tom M Post: Just wanted to point out that the SVI2 readings that the zenpower driver provides is the most accurate of reality. The SVI2 readings are directly pulled from the cpu die with no motherboard hardware involved. I think you said Zenpower won't work on a copy of Ubuntu 18.4.x? Tom M

It is nice to have the badges of recognition on the forums, kinda like our stars et al. here. Just popping in to say hi. No signs of GPU app there yet? Congrats ! Not at WCG. And I read someplace that Rosetta@Home's approach doesn't adapt well to gpus. Tom M
