THEnumber337 Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 this is the 3rd time I have started it LOL, but it looks like 20 minGood or Bad? Does VMware Tools make it faster? Tweaks? That's good. I get about 20.5 minutes per frame on my Opty 165 at 2.7Ghz. I haven't messed with VMware Tools so I don't know if it makes it faster. It seems like Core 2 Duo's really like the SMP WU's and go through them quite a bit faster than AMD's. I set mine as a higher priority once using likewhoa's code in a earlier post in this thread but didn't see really any gain at all in TPF. There is a gain (although nothing enormous) in speed by running in native Linux as opposed to VMware but I need Windows. You will see your PPD go up a lot now. I noticed on EOC it was about 400-500. Now you should top out over 1000 PPD. Remember, these SMP units have VERY short deadlines. Basically if you don't leave your computer on 24/7 you run the risk of missing the deadlines and getting NO points. Check out a list of the proteins as well as deadlines and points here.

THEnumber337 Posted February 27, 2007 Posted February 27, 2007 Hey raiderfan, have you started folding at all with the SMP client? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coors Posted February 27, 2007 Posted February 27, 2007 No. ATM I don't even have Linux installed. I've been too busy with this C2D lol. Once I get my final stable overclock I'll probably try to get back into trying to learn linux again but for now it's OCing time on the C2D and game time on the 939:tooth: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundx98 Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Well I've finished the 2604/2605 for the 4th time LOL. My problem is it seems to stop after completion and just sit there. I have set it up for auto DL of new WUs. Do I need to do something special. Every time I reboot after completion I lose everything and then I have to start the whole process over and the completed WUs are no longer in the folder. Just sitting here waiting for something to happen. WTF? How do I get this thing uploaded to F@H? Shouldn't it tdo it automatically?

Sometimes it takes a few minutes. After that last screen shot of your's it takes me about 5 minutes to get a new work unit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thraxz Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Alright... I'm beginning the D/L for Ubuntu and I'm going to try it out on this rig once I get my C2D rig back up. Wish me luck guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundx98 Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Don't no why but although my WLAN works in FAH when downloading the WU, once it has started folding and completes the WLAN CANNOT connect to the internet. In fact I can't connect in VMmare at all once FAH had started. Using a Belkin F5D 7050 (v.1.0) USM Wireless. (Only took me 4 completed WUs to figure it out LOL) No access to a wired LAN but I'll try with my new notebook next week. Hopefully it's wireless will perform differently. Thanks for all the help guys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thraxz Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Okay, I'm unhappy. I registered and gave them all my info to get spammed to death for the next ten years and then effing seriel #'s didn't work... so unhappy. It's not that big of a deal I'm just not willing to put up with things like this at the moment. Bad week that I keep waiting to get turned around and it's not happening. EDIT: This is for VMware I'm trying to run on my AMD machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coors Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 For Ubuntu? I never had to register or give a serial number for anything. I just DLed a live cd, installed and that was pretty much it. Other than running some commands to get it setup and stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
