Setting up Rosetta@home

[Movieman]

What can I do to get better numbers?

Also, I'm thinking about setting up the PCs at work with this. I'm behind a firewall...will any ports need to be opened?

I need to get some help from some AMD guysfor you..All my equipment is intel..as for the firewall issue, Rosy will work through a proxy server, that I'm positive on. I use it with 5 PC's at home with no issues but no commercial experience..I'll try and get you someone better equiped to answer your questions

How do I join the XS team? Is their some forum to fill out ?
Got the email this morning saying XS needs all the help it can get, I'm willing to setup 4 boxes at work that run 24/7/365 to do what I can. It's just not clear to me how to give XS the credit.

Thanks

Not really. Not sure if I get the jist of the question... In terms of filling out a forum there is one of the stickies in this forum... 'team members report..' just blast in there and put your name down (your XS name and your Rosetta name.)
In terms of Rosetta itself... when you install the BOINC client it will prompt you for all the setting regarding your name and team etc!

Will check back when I get back to work and have all those PCs crying for mercy

Thats the spirit!

Hey everyone...I just got the email today and joined up. I've never done these before cus first I had extremetly slow systems...then we were constrained to electrical bills. Now that I'm at school and electrical is included...I'm gona see where I can get with my 2 systems...

Opty 170@2.7Ghz:
4523 floating point MIPS (Whetstone) per CPU
12924 integer MIPS (Dhrystone) per CPU

P-M 1.6Ghz Laptop:
2282 floating point MIPS (Whetstone) per CPU
9146 integer MIPS (Dhrystone) per CPU

I may add some more systems later at home...as long as my parents don't mind the power usage...lol...and maybe invite some of my friends to join up.

[njkid32]

Wonderful!!! Glad your here

[phoeniXfury]

I have a question...I think I read about caching WUs so that when one's done...there's no wait time...looks like my opty has WUs cached but my laptop is not doing it.

What determines this? Is it automatic based on system performance or is it user set?

I tried installing the optimized client on a 900mhz Athlon. It won't load. Odd thing though. If I replace the two files with the originals, the client loads up and looks like the optimized command line interface. Anyone have this problem? I have tried SSE and SSE2.

You should replace the original files to make it works.

Yonah 3.1GHz

Could it be a problem with tiny Xp?

[Haltech]

I installed Boinc 5.5.0 Windows SSE2 onto BOINC 5.4.9
but benchmarks looks like its not optimized

No, i used tiny xp on my last install and cranked 460X and 14,XXX with a 3800+ @ 2500

Try rebooting the box and rebenching.

[Haltech]

Athlon prior to A64s do not support SSE2

Ok I want to join but is this ram intensive or just uses cpu cycles? I have a t2300 Core Duo, A64 3700, and a Celeron 3.4 to dedicate.

[Bail_w]

It just CPU cycles

[LiQU!D]

So from what it seems -"connects to the network", this program will be using my internet connection?

[njkid32]

Yes its gonna dl the work units but then you could suspend the access but dont forget to upload your results

[Movieman]

It connects, downloads a work unit, machine "crunches" the WU, then sends it back..on a normal cable connection you will never even notice the bandwidth usage. Will work on dial up also.
Questions, feel free to ask..Glad to help out!

[phelan1777]

set it up, but not getting anything no projects, and no work processed.

Update: Projects running

[@_dud]

The optimization link isn't working.

Again. We're so good at it, we do it twice, just for good measure.
