Post: I don't see how bragging about how another platform "doesn't suffer from viruses" is intended to help the OP. Of course, the idea is to entice them to switch, but alas, the question wasn't "How do I get rid of Windows?", so I would think that it may not be an option. this is what i used for a longtime.. eset/nod32 is not the best.. but good enough and as u get it with firewall now, it does a darn good work stopping attacks. and does not bother you to much. It has saved me at least 3 times.. and yes in combo with ad-aware you will be protected.. only problem is protection from root kits. well that was a problem when i used it.. it has prolly changed in latest version. Low footprint as mentioned above + a long history of making a-virus program (the original creators, as i remember, was active way back when amiga was active :) ) overall high score by me :) Brgds Dagar |

Post: yup lots of memories :) ...this will take a sidestep from actual thread i guess.. sry bout that.. os/2 warp was rather interesting.. but back then i didnt have time to configure it properly.. as i work at sea and other stuff that i wanted to do more had higher priority lol yup only AP + cuda here also.. had some "normal" WU earlier and computer placed normal ones together with AQUA WU as it should are you connected to other projects chewie? and if so are they using processors as they should? |

I still dont trust windows to handle internet withour getting loads uf flues and stuff) changeing btween O/s's r fast win 7 is ok allover sofar, nothing have caught my eye sofar (i dont care about the looks lol as u prolly can change it anyway you like anyway) latest boinc is running somewat smooth on win 7.

Post: Nvidia has the driver u need , and win 7 seems to eat it alive.. i get some wierd chnges in screensize to start with but all that is corrected even if one problem remains.. i have dual 8800GT but can only find one gpu in list.. well small problem.. win 7 should work better than vista it seems.. (ubuntu fan here though) :) Good luck! Dagar. |

Post: hi I recently installed Win 7 Rc to compare a bit from old installation Ubuntu 9.04 on my desktop.. errors when running aqua started to show up this is more of some piece to the error puzzle than a answer to origninal thread hope it helps us both :) 27/05/2009 13:40:16 AQUA@home [error] Can't rename output file 26may09-128-2M-64-a_43_59_0_0 to projects/aqua.dwavesys.com/26may09-128-2M-64-a_43_59_0_0: Error 32 27/05/2009 13:40:16 AQUA@home Computation for task 26may09-128-2M-64-a_43_59_0 finished 27/05/2009 13:40:16 AQUA@home Output file 26may09-128-2M-64-a_43_59_0_0 for task 26may09-128-2M-64-a_43_59_0 absent well since they havent got their cuda application on full speed i didnt think much of it.. but now the plague has spread to my seti calculations and that gets me a bit worried ;) i can't find the error message in my log im afraid.. what happened it sort of finished 100% and timed out.. common when computing multiple projects? no release of resource btween WU?

Post: have been checking on cuda support, am using Nv driver 177.82 atm no evidence of support ,unless i make it.. but this one will have 180.06 is out..... Release Highlights * Added support for CUDA 2.1. * Added initial support for PureVideo-like features on Linux via the new VDPAU API (see the vdpau.h header file installed withthe driver). * Added new workstation performance optimizations. * Enabled the X Render "GlyphCache" by default. * Disabled shared memory X pixmaps by default; see the“AllowSHMPixmaps" option. * Fixed a regression that could result in window decorationcorruption when running Compiz using Geforce 6 and 7 series GPUs. * Improved X pixmap placement on GeForce 8 series and later GPUs. * Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels. * Improved stability on some GeForce 8 series and newer GPUs. http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=123072 so i just sit tight.. wu has been coming in so i guess all is well crunchwise Merry x-mas And a Happy new year to all of u :) |

Could someone at berkely pls be so kind to reset my todo workunit list.. i got graphic card fixed.. had to remove one of the Nv 8800 GT to get it to work.. but one is better than none.. however this changes me to a cuda user and i guess my last wu list is somewhat outdated weak key: 223978_a8e8c4f9b5a5579f97ca0c1faef3727e to identify me i am not totally sure it will work now with cuda and all but comp has accepted the card and we can go from there. as for now i cant communicate with project Brgds Dagar Edit spellcheck and confirm :yes boinc client recognizes cuda , all is well, running on 6.4.5 now tis 23 dec 2008 08.37.41||Processor: 4 GenuineIntel Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Extreme CPU Q6850 @ 3.00GHz [Family 6 Model 15 Stepping 11] tis 23 dec 2008 08.37.41||Processor features: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe syscall nx lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts rep_good nopl pni monitor ds_cpl vmx est tm2 ssse3 cx16 xtpr lahf_ tis 23 dec 2008 08.37.41||OS: Linux: 2.6.27-11-generic tis 23 dec 2008 08.37.41||Memory: 3.87 GB physical, 11.32 GB virtual tis 23 dec 2008 08.37.41||Disk: 575.67 GB total, 543.65 GB free tis 23 dec 2008 08.37.41||Local time is UTC +1 hours tis 23 dec 2008 08.37.41||Not using a proxy tis 23 dec 2008 08.37.41||CUDA devices found tis 23 dec 2008 08.37.41||Coprocessor: GeForce 8800 GT (1) |

Post: Drivers for Linux are already out.. i have Dl them but not yet compiled new cores.. since im a bit rusty with linux still lol you worry abt credits.. i see it as a good way to get this big chunks of AP done in decent time.. (i work at sea and don't want to leave unfinished work here as i go to irl work .) well easyest way to deal with stats is prolly just to see them as additional cores.. board already calulates stats with included info regarding numers of cores in computer..
