Well team, welcome to the sub 5000 club, well done and keep it up. I myself am taking a week off from folding and going on my jollies down to Devon. This will give you all a chance to close up on my score, not that it's a race. . Will be back folding on the 29th.

Re: Folding@Home
Hi 900i (and the other minter folding crew)
I have just got a 2.8 P4 folding at the moment, but once my Q6600 finshes its current smp WU, i will be adding it to the team should add a few points to the cause.. Also got a E4300 dual core folding box, again, once that finishes its current WU, it will be added to the team.
The E4300 will fold 24/7 smp client (as it keeps my spare room warm in the winter ) the quad core is only running 12/14hrs a day.
Hope to be able to push the team up the ranks a bit

Re: Folding@Home
The Q6600 has just finished one smp WU, and the '4300 has started its 24/7 smp run, in a weeks time i have to move house so will have no 'net access for a while, hence will have to stop folding, but i will be back
hope to see more faces in the team - when i started folding 2 or 3 years ago, you could do timeless WU's and i had rigs from P1 200mmx's upwards folding, alas, the timeless WU's (work unit) are no more
one of my rigs crashed partway through a WU and i only got awarded 3 points for that (it is running windows after all....)

Re: Folding@Home
Thanks 900i, i hope the move goes ok too seems i could be offline for a couple of weeks tho one of my rigs will have dial up so may still be able to sneak a WU in!!!
Re: Folding@Home
Well, the move went without any major disaster's, even got my AOL broadband here 2 days after moving in
Only slight drawback being i havr had to downsize my folding rigs a bit
Got the Q6600 & my D945 at the moment.

Re: Folding@Home
I struggled to get it to run but had nothing but failure. People's help was at to high of a level for a dumb ass like me with no command line skill. The one time I seemed to get it going - it seemed to run all the time and never listend to the settings that I set. so i dumped it. The hassles of linux!
Linux Mint - Pure Bliss!

Why shut it down for the weekend? Is it such a small shop that they'll notice one computer running on weekends? Why not just lock the desktop and let 'er fold?900i wrote:Saab-Correct
This is how I fold:-
Work rig is a core 2 duo, I am a Mechanical Design Engineer and run 3d Cad. F@H is running nearly all the time on both cores through the week regardless of what apps I am using. The only time I shut one core down is when I need to detail a drawing, then it gets a bit laggy if I don't. But I would say that 80% of the time I am folding on both cores with no ill effects. I run XP at work all week and use the windows command line client which I start manually on a Monday morning and shut down on a Friday afternoon for the W/E. I don't fold at home as I only have a laptop - they get bloody hot folding in my experience!
Re: Folding@Home
Yeah, I've also cranked up one core and started again. Onward and upward.

Re: Folding@Home
Hi all,
I have just managed to get Linux Mint Elyssa 64 bit installed (11-01-2009) and it is up and running. First impressions are very good.
I have been folding 24/7 for over a year now, and being as I have just installed mint, I have started folding for you.
Now working on my third unit and should (hopefully) be able to add some 25,000 points per week to the team.
Best regards Keith
