That just means that EOC will get them at the next update interval (upper left hand corner of the EOC stat page gives the time remaining till next update).

Thanks

Sorry to disappoint but for most applications transfer rates mean very little and access times mean everything. Thats why raid-0 disappoints. The amount of time a disk uses to block transfer data is very small compared to the amount of time it takes to move the heads to their proper location...

The X300 is not capable of GPU folding and for that matter no Nvidia cards work either, including the 7300GT.

I'm surprised that it was slower. The fast one is the 512MB X1900XTX. I'm waiting, with antisipation, to see what the 2800 Series does. At the moment, I'm being disappointed with my current Linux SMP because the current WU's are all getting around 560PPD and I can do better with my AIW x1900...

It worked great: I now have Mac OS X 10.4.7 running in VMware.

That temp is not going to cause a problem, since the CPU's are rated for 70C. That being said, I would not feel comfortable at 60C: I really don't like it at 55C, but I live with it.

That would be core temps

My X2 4600's using stock retail heatsink/fan's while dual-instance folding operate between 50-55C depending upon the quality of my heat-sink install and the individual case.

Well, I'm DL'ing Jas10.4.8, just to fiddle with it.

nope, just that one, and that is supposedly because of the size of the CPU's cache: It's sensative to the 512KB cache on my CPU's, but it was benchmarked on CPU's with 2MB of cache. So, it isn't the start of a points nerf ...

It's been there a long time: I don't remember ever creating it for a purpose: More likely, it was simply a typeo, during configuration, that I corrected.

I have had to replace one windshield about 8 years ago, when a rock hit it on the freeway: It actually went through the windshield leaving about a 2 inch hole and glass shards inside the driver compartment.

If the goal is free/cheap then use the one that comes with Windows ...

It probably will be worth the same, but its replacement ...

Well, it appears that SMP folding has had its PPD drop. As of today, a new p2908 WU has halved my PPD from 1000 to 500. Oh Well, it was a nice run, even though rather short.

I suspect that the price reductions are a result of companies trying to reduce inventories in antisipation of the new x2900 series coming out 3/31/07.

I believe that the phrase Dah seems most appropiate:

A very false statement. I stop stuff, that I didn't start, every day. Two children start argueing; the parents stop it, even though they didn't start it or have anything to do with it. The premis, that we should only try to change that which we do is totally bogus. There are ethical and...

Yes! I asked the question on the M$ Vista forums and actually was given the answer there, by an Microsoft MVP. The option disapears if the OS is connected to a domain: The machine, automaticly snycs its time to the domain controller, instead.

Vista-Business and yes, the Windows time service is started ...

I don't have that tab. The only tab I have says Additional clocks ...

How does one setup Vista to sync its time to a time-server? I must be blind:Since Windows 2000, they all have had this ability, but I just don't see that capability natively in Vista.

I noticed that news item this last week too. I wonder what they've been doing that caused it. Anyway, it does not affect me in any way since the nearest one to my local is roughly 60 miles away.

Tell that to the person, that because of the switch, their alarm clock was an hour off, making them an hour late, resulting in getting fired. Tell that to a customer, that because of the switch, was undercharged or overcharged for some service. All because a billing computer was off by an...

I'm sorry, but I think you have it all wrong. The group you are trying to get are young (with money). Young because of the gaming and money because you are trying to deal with the very high-end at $5000. I would argue that that group is not going to be impressed with raid: If anything, the...

What I'm thinking is the irony of someone stealing the Windows source code and then posting it on the web: if it isn't patentable, or copyrightable, then would not the thieves be able to use the same arguement.

Sorry, It is only released to beta testers.

Not yet: I don't get any inside information that isn't posted in their forums...

Just marketting full-Duplex. Any high quality switch is technically 2000: Allowing 1000 in both directions. Lessor switches, won't have the backbone bandwidth to operate full duplex on all ports simultanously, but it is very rare, that one is actually running all ports, simultanously, at full...

Currently all are Ubuntu except for the Smoothwall box and it is only running the uni-processor Linux client.

It's really hard to judge because the clocks are all messed up running linux under VMWare: You can't trust the time stamps. My best estimate is that I'm running about 30% slower. The only bug fixes that I saw, when I reasearched it, for the VMWare clock problem don't seem to apply to...

I like Netgear GS105 and GS108 switches. The both support jumbo frames and are fanless. My biggest complaint is a form-factor issue. The lights are on the same side as the cables and I definately prefer the LED's to be on the front while the cables should be in the rear. They are not the...

Well, I've finished with my SMP conversion: I added two more machines today. I have four 4600+ X2's running Linux SMP natively; two 4600+ X2's running SMP Linux under VMware; two 3.2 P4's running Windows clients and one 3.2 P4 running a uni-linux client. No GPU clients at all. This is as...

There are several issues here. The first question: What has actually been causing their downtime? Has it been because of HW? Because, if that has not been the reason, there is absolutely no reason to think new HW will solve the problem. Next, I worry about the gottcha's with the new plans...

I've never been up to the task of spending that kind of money for a camera body: I want a Ds mark II for the price of a Rebal Ti or less. Sorry, but I was spoiled with film cameras where $1000-$1500 used to get top of the line Cannon SLR. It just grates at a very basic level that now I have...

Yes, but it won't be a big point producer. It should get around 200PPD but since you also have to dedicate a full core to run it, you should deduct what the CPU would produce anyway. As an example, my 4600+ X2 would normally produce about 150PPD for each core for a total of 300PPD. If I ran...

How about looking at Inpharm or Inpharm with his 152 processors. He just started 10/06 or just 4 months ago to get 12 million points. He's generating 144,000 points per day or over 1 million a week. At my current rate, it will take me a little less than a year to produce 1 million points...

I'm finding this to be totally ironic coming from M$, Since I note how much effort M$ has gone through trying to protect its own source code: The US Supreme Court debates the patentabillity of software in Microsoft vs. AT&T. from www.betanews.com A seemingly simple case regarding whether...

Thanks, I tried 7.2 on the machine that refuses to GPU fold and it did absolutely squat. It just plain refuses to initialize the GPU. I suspect that it is a registry issue, since I have an almost identical machine (Same OS, MB, Processor, RAM, video card, etc.) and it GPU folds. The drivers...

I don't know what is going on for you. However, you can DL it from Microsoft here: IE7. So it hasn't been totally removed from their site. If your OS is not setup right, I know that it won't offer IE7. That includes XP (pre SP2), or Windows 2000, or Windows 2003 pre SP1. However, I also...

The SMP core was designed for a dual processor with dual cores (a total of 4 cores run using four threads), but works fine with a single processor with two cores. The only real issue is whether the two cores can get the WU's done in time because of the short expiration on the SMP WU's: I'm...

I have no idea if they are going to drop or raise. I just know that they are going to adjust, specificly to encourage the clients that have more current scientific value. My guess is the GPU clients will go up and the SMP clients will go down because the amount of flops that a GPU can do is...

As a side note Stanford is about to redefine the point values for the SMP and GPU clients. So in the future, your points may vary ...

I am using AMD X2 4600+ (939); 512MB-PC3200 DDR RAM; Gigabyte K8N51PVM9-RH MB's; Onboard Video; Ubuntu Linux (ubuntu-6.10-desktop-amd64.iso); and F@H's Linux SMP 64 bit folding client. I installed the FAH client start out by DL'ing finstall by typing "wget...

It's working for me now too. I don't believe that M$ bought VMWare (yet).

Your link doesn't work ... But then what difference does it make when there is free VMWare.

I moved one of my GPU's to another machine and by golly, I can't get it to run either: Same problem as you. It won't initialize the GPU and then kicks out with an error mdrun_gpu returned 99. Very annoying because I haven't been able to figure out whats wrong..

You are using a valid driver set: the 6.10 or the 6.11 should do fine. Ask CougTek, He has a x1650 too and thus can undoubtably hand hold you through a driver installation.
