Also, are you folding on any GPU's?

I can get you in still, what are you folding on?

I am going to be running it on a laptop and two desktops.

Yep, I have three monitors. Two 22" plugged into the 9800GX2's DVI ports. Still gives me errors. SLI and PhysX were both off during my testing, I have the latest drivers, and I reinstalled the GPU tray (not console) clients as per instructions linked to earlier in this thread that were written for this forum...

I really did want to Fold on that second GPU, but it is not cooperating. That is the only problem I've ever had with this GPU, actually.

I think my netbook can pull about 300 ppd. I get about 15/1500 every hour. But i'm not too sure since it's my first time folding. It's actually pretty cool. Will continue to fold!!

how are you allocating the extra monitor? extend/display 1/2 etc

i just know SLI->dual GPU needs to be 'extended' when i fold or the client crashes

Display 1 is primary (9800GX2-A), Display 2 is secondary (extend, 9800GX2-B), and Display 3 is secondary (extend, 7900GTX-A).

taichi135 is the folding name.

Umm, how exactly do I check my ppd? I'm guessing 1000pts a day. I used to have a number of PC's folding, but lost them due to changes at work...

update, I've got two pc's folding again, yay. Working on more throughout the day!

Was anybody able to help me find the right download links? i keep on getting lost at the F@H website.....

i can not get any of the gpu clients working, only the cpu version. everytime i try the gpu my pc locks up.
i will just use cpu for now.

Ok so my PS3 is folding (BTW My username is umm. Forsaken's_PS3)
Anyway, I've also thrown in a couple HP DL360's, not sure how much PPD they will be producing, but
i wouldn't imagine it to be a huge amount.

I still see team's A B C D - have you added more? The standby list for team's 5 & 6 is ~12 or 13 people now...
Just want to see what team im on so I can root for us

OK here are the servers I got so far:

9x p4 3.0 single core processor servers
1x Xeon Dual 2.0 Quad Core (8core total)
1x Xeon Dual 3.0 Dual Core (4 core total)

I will have more up later today.

It has been a very long time since I have messed with this and I wanted to make sure I am going this right with the multicore servers. I read the wiki and followed the instructions, but wanted to pick yalls brains.

I created a different directory for each instance. I then used the -configonly and went into the advanced option to set the Machine ID to the core # e.g. MID 1 for core 0 and then used the taskset -c 0 ./fah6 to launch it in a screen session. Here is the screen session for the 8 core:

[root@fah3 ~]# screen -ls
There are screens on:
13507.5 (Detached)
13396.3 (Detached)
13373.4 (Detached)
13578.8 (Detached)
13422.2 (Detached)
13555.7 (Detached)
13530.6 (Detached)
13443.1 (Detached)

6 out of the 8 processes are working. the ones that arent are sitting at:


[09:44:27] - Attempt #9 to get work failed, and no other work to do.
Waiting before retry.
[10:05:47] + Attempting to get work packet
[10:05:47] - Connecting to assignment server
[10:05:47] + No appropriate work server was available; will try again in a bit.
[10:05:47] + Couldn't get work instructions.

But for the most part i think things are looking good. Hope this helps the team! Like i said, I will try and get more servers up.

shouldnt the taskset have been fah8 ?

I still need help.

If these are linux servers (I assume they Are) SMP client works reallly well and automatically will use all cores available.
Windows has a SMP client too, however I have had horrible luck with it.
