DDOL in linux

**jaawood** · 03-24-2005, 11:43 PM

Has anybody successfully gotten this installed on a linux machine? I am having a bit of trouble here getting it set up on my linux box.

Thanks

So far the easiest linux distro to use and set up DDOL has been Suse 9.2 for me...It has java support already loaded when you do the initial install so you don't have to mess with anything. I just downloaded the linux installer and have 4 instances running on my DX box ......

I have D2OL running on 2 Gentoo Linux boxes. On one I used the complete install available here. On the other I did the expert (java yourself) version. No difference in speed.

Both are running GUI-less BASH prompt only. I start them by:

Code:

cd /home/paladin/d2ol/D2OL
./D2OL controller:cli

IIRC I had to edit the config files to reflect my paths.

I use SuSE Linux 9.0 and just downloaded the GUI installer with Java. All I did was just follow what the webpage said and away I went. Its now crunching at 2.17ghz...I need to up the volts some more

I would guess, try and get Java downloaded and installed before using D2OL. Maybe that will solve the issue?

It's a lot easier to just use the installer with it's own jvm. I've had it running on most linux distros. I'd recommend altering the D2OL/res/general.prp to set LaunchMain=false, that way it's not really using java anyway.

then as mentioned earlier in the thread, start it with ./D2OL controller:cli

currently it's on all of my gentoo systems, an opteron running Suse 9.1 and a few redhat systems.

Hey Bok, thanks for the information. could you maybe give me a few more details on customizing it to run how you specified, i am pretty unfamiliar with DDOL.

Thanks

Hi there Bok, how did it all go with your NCCH-DL?

**jaawood** · 04-07-2005, 09:53 PM

Haha, thanks!!!

Alright, success!! I just tryed the non gui install, and it worked like a charm, even though it says for experts only, and I am by no means and expert!

Edit1: Unfortuantely, java is eating like 50% of my cpu even after i exit the fancy interface, but i am going to work on getting rid of that now.

Edit2: Now it works without using any java after i set it to not launch the fancy interface dealie, and restarted it, so all it well.

Well I let it run all night, and when I got up this morning, I found out that java is now hogging about 70% of my cpu, so basically not much is getting used for D2OL. Does anybody know how to fix this? It is really annoying, and also actually makes my system quite qlitchy.

I just downloaded the Linux client (gui installer) and I get loads of Java errors:

Just a note from my past experience:
Linux doesnt take to oc as well as ms os
just my opinion
point: Tried to turn the fsb on my xeons to just 115 and got kernel panic crash

**masterofpuppets** · 04-16-2005, 10:22 PM

Very true. Sometimes I can get Windows to boot fine, but at the same speed, the kernel will throw out a few memory stacks and reboot. Although, it is kind of a memory stability test in itself
