Number crunching :
Powerbook G4 with leopard
(消息 692143)
发表于：17 Dec 2007 作者： dasy2k1 Post: Hey all, I just bought a powerbook and started crunching with it. 867 MHZ and just installed Leopard. Sometimes when the screensaver is running and i move the mouse so i can use the computer, the actual seti program is shown sunning in the dock next to BOINC. It dosent happen all the time, it also dosent usually do it after the display goes to sleep, though i have seen it once or twice. Is this normal? not a mac user myself but this appears totally normal to me, a gnu/linux user there is a running process that can be seen all the time with ps -A | grep seti from the terminal (that shows you all running processes and then filters them to only show ones with seti in the name) my linux box gives the following for that command das69@das69:~$ ps -A | grep seti 20553 ? 00:00:00 setiathome-5.27 20554 ? 00:00:00 setiathome-5.27 20555 ? 00:45:48 setiathome-5.27 20556 ? 00:00:00 setiathome-5.27 das69@das69:~$ (a linux terminal is 90% the same as a mac one... as they are both UNIX based or UNIX clones) as the dock shows running processes in the mac side of things (rather than the darwin/UNIX side) seeing the process there would be normal (if you could see the dock when the screensaver was active then it would be there allways) it just shuts the process down when boinc stops crunching so the icon dissapears |

发表于：2 Mar 2007 作者： dasy2k1 Post: I like MSN better for their email as an alternate to verizons email or as a supplement. ackk, msn/hotmail email is evil, you get loads of spam from msn, the interface is horrable and you you cant read it via pop. (unless you pay a heavey fee to do so) if you want i can seend you a gmail invatation.... you get 2.8GiB of storage, yorui account dousent expire afetr 30days of unuse, they haev a really effective spam filter, and never send you any spam themselves. you can acsess you emails form POP, there is an archive so taht you never have to delete an email again, just archive it to clear yur inbox. and you can use googel's search to search your emails! very good stystem if you want an invite email me at dasy2k1 (at) gmail (dot) com and i will send you one i just tested my works boradbabd...  not bad really, looks like they have a ballanced 1024/1024 my current home broadband is 2048/256 but that is quite cheap at £13.99 a month, here in the uk the best you can normaly get for home use is 8096/256 it seesms that to get more than 256 upload you have to get buseness broadband and pay a fortune for it, tho home ADSL is cheap. i head that BskyB are offering 12288/256 but im not sure, i think that may only be if you live next door to the phone exchange! and rumor has it that 24576/256 is coming soon |

发表于：28 Feb 2007 作者： dasy2k1 Post: how many forum members does it take to change a light bulb? One to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed. Fourteen to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently. Seven to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs. Seven more to point out spelling/grammatical errors in posts about changing light bulbs. Five to flame the spell checkers. Three to correct spelling/grammar flames. Six to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another six to condemn those six as stupid. Fifteen to claim experience in the lighting industry and give the correct spelling. Nineteen to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb (or light bulb) forum. Eleven to defend the posting to the group saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this group. Thirty six to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty Seven to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs. Four to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL. Three to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group. Thirteen to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too" Five to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy. Four to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?" Thirteen to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs" Three to tell a funny story about their show dog and a light bulb. One to reply almost immediately saying "First Post !!!!!!" One to post an ASCII image of the lightbulb. Three to ask "Wtf is that" because their clients didn't display it as fixed-width. Seventeen to reply saying that their e-mail client is inadequate and suggest they get Mutt. One to reply with a perfectly labelled scale diagram of how to change a light bulb correctly. Thirty-three to reply telling them not to send HTML e-mails or attachments, and why don't they just use Mutt and ASCII art anyway. Two to ask "but does it run Linux ?". One to make a comment about the upcoming Microsoft Digital Lightbulb Management 2007 SP2 RGE. Two to suggest that Apple lightbulbs are superior. Seventy-five to start a massive off-topic Apple vs Microsoft flamewar. Forty-two to continue it into a Python vs Perl flamewar. One lonely poster to unsuccessfully try to start a HP-UX vs IRIX flamewar One hundred and seventy-eight to respond at various times saying "Troll!!" "OMG WTF TROLL !!!!!!one LOL" "Don't Feed Da Troll!!1", etc... AND One group lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again |

yeh, it was... then they reliced SuSE 10.1 which to be fair is a great OS with everything you really need (except mp3 support) except they have added so much to the instalation software that it has become so bloted that it tskes an age to load, then often crahes :( there is YAST YUM Zen Smart SAX2 and many others, to save trouble i have been using CLI RPM for simple installs recently, at leaset its stable and reliable even if its not preaty... once you have disabled the zen auto updater (after geting the updates) then disables the beagle search (a big system HOG) installed libxine-1 and others and genrally cut out the bloat then you really have got an operationg system that is easy to use (easier than windoze! in its own way ) stable (cant ever be said for anything made by M$ except whta they stole form others) and blisteringly fast... i just wish it installed that way out of the box! |

hmm strtange, the only problems i had with the installtion were that A it was painfully slow, 5 hours with ocasional cd changes (i wish i had a dvd writer!) then it crashed on teh final stage, no worys though it worked fine! i coudldent get to teh partitioning area wqhich was a blow (i allways use a slackware disk to partition using CFDISK) but i got there in the end, still locks up on auto detect of printers :( so i have to do taht all manualy) overall it is much better than windows for locups most of teh time i jsut ^ + alt + F1 to ttl1 then ps -A then kill the dead thing (or X if all elce fails) the only times i cant do taht are when teh kbd loack up, as i havent got a SHH backdor setup yet to kill form! |

open suse is cool, only it misses a few improtant codecs, like MP3 and many audio formats, you can download them all though ifd you know where to look... downloading the cDs takes ages as tehre are 6 full size ISO imagaes to download and burn, insatlling is easy if a bit long winded compared to other distros, my very old machine takes about 5 hours to inastll, tghough 3.5 of thease require no user inmput apart form checking to see if it wanst athe next disk occasiponally, |

发表于：28 May 2006 作者： dasy2k1 Post: i use linux for my main PC and i cruuently run seti on my normal unprovalaged user account, i cannot see how it would be any safer running it in a sepereate account then in this one as i have the lowest privalages avalable (as all linux sytems default to) i woudl never run it as root (administrator in windows speak) but the again i would never log on fully as root in normal sucramstances, i would just use SU |

发表于：28 May 2006 作者： dasy2k1 Post: Also, the password that gets generated in that file is the one you would use to manage it remotely. It should be some long thing that looks like aeh3kdjdnsksjrksks0193 or something. I usually copy and paste it into boincview to remote control my boxes. the thing is i dont remote controll my box! i only have 3 and i controll them all directly! this is when i try to start the manager directly by runing the exacutable in teh BOINC folder nbo remote admin at all! am sat infront of the pc , the only thing between teh keyboard and PC is a KVM swich! |

work unit status-----> preempted
(消息 319623)
发表于：28 May 2006 作者： dasy2k1 Post: now im getting loads of work un its with pre-empted can anyone explain from seti as to what this means please, my cred is getting low and lower because of this boinc can only crunch 1 wu per processor core at once, so if like me you also contribute to other boinc prodjects (like einsein@home) then you will allways have more than 1 WU on the go at once, provided you only have 1 processor (not dual core either) then you will se e1 WU as running, all the other preempted WUs as preempted and any not yet to be strted as ready to run. currently i have 1 einstein unit running, 1 seti preempted and 1 seti ready to run, untill my last scedualar there was also 1 einstein compleate |

Inexhaustible Oil?!?
(消息 317733)
发表于：26 May 2006 作者： dasy2k1 Post: there may be huge reserves of oil left (mostly under america) but call me synical if you will why does america buy most of its oil form the unstable parts of teh world (unsabilaty often argumented by the heavyhandedness of GWB) why doesnt it just drill its own more?? answer... america is waiting till everyone elces oil had dried up then it will start to drill its own, will it sell its own oil to the rest of teh world, OF course not! after all only americans need oil dont they? anyway if the americans cant have cars that do 40gallons to the mile (yes GPM not MPG!) they might get upset and voe for a differnt president! as for synthetic oil.... burning oil relices enagy, creating oil needs teh same amount of enagy no process is 100% efficent so creating oil needs more enagy than burning it again would provide... so synthetic oil is a usefull transfer fuel but you need some decent renawable enagy to create it, (like solar or wind) if this is the case why not use hydrogen insead of synthetic oil made by GM microbes living in tubes of water in the nevaada desert where they get loads of light, they will produce hydrogen then we run our huge SUVs on that! in the meantime buy a smart car from europe, ship it to amrica, drive irt there, the enegy you wil save by using it insead of an SUV will ofset the enagy required to ship it cross adlantic many times! (smart cars do about 80 miles to 1 (uk) gallon of fuel) at grossly subsidied US fuel priced you coudl drive one for about $5 a week! |
