XS.org is about to lose 1st place in D2OL...

[Jeff]

to Ars Technica Team Frozen Yogurt.

I've put what's left of the old farm back on this project but it's not really a farm anymore. Hopefully some others can transfer a few MHz to help hold them off.

[SoF]

omg this should not happen.
I try saving some energy until december for my electric bill (this definitly will hurt this year) but reading this, I stopped my dual P3 and started the c² X2...maybe I can get around the D2OL installation bug on my 3200+ on work, then I could finally switch it from R@H to D2OL.
Hopefully some people will move from R@H to D2OL

Jeff thanks for your support of Rosetta back in January... first post here.
So for that, I am full power with everything on D2ol. We all worked too hard last year to give it up to a group of ice cream wannabe's. I'm here to help.

putting a SD3700 on it now, and an X2-4200 when I get a new UPS. Both run about 2.5Ghz. They are here to stay as well, sick of the stuff happeing in Rosetta.

EDIT:-
Appears the server is down... all other net apps running fine, even turned Firewall off totally, still no go.
(I forgot the servers have a habit of doing that on this project... ah well, try again later)

EDIT 2:-
Registration server is back up, joined, and crunching. X2 will go on (24/7) as soon as I get a UPS

[SoF]

yepp there was a bit downtime today, but since one or two hours everything is fine again. Was the first downtime since a long time (which I remarked).
Anyway just uploaded 150 for today, hope we can get ARS and DPC behind us again daily.

I've started running it and had my first points updated . I only have it on my parents A64 at the moment but annoyingly it's the most powerfull I have. One Q though is there anyway to upload the compleed results manually?

hehe yes I saw your one point in the morning when I went to bed (skipped sleeping the night )

way to manual update attached in the screenshot

btw: A64 is nice for D2OL, unfortunatly I haven't seen what conroe can do.

[Jeff]

Good to hear a few are coming back/starting up!

[Max Tractor]

Are the stickies still relevant to the client, or are there any other tweaks for it?

thanks

[Martijn]

I'll put my P3-800 back to the project, Rosetta does almost nothing for the old rigs anymore. It runs offline as well, so D2OL is a better project (if the servers are online, lol).

[menlatin]

ok, my core 2 duo is doing very little right now. How can i help?

hmmm what do you mean with little? I only have my A64 running overnight and it can do ~100 on each core/night (21-9).
What does your rig in ~12h?
Edit: read it again and maybe you just ask how to install and setup d2ol because your rig has little system usage?


@Martijn hehe P3 rockz have a dual 933MHZ running for it and it does not that much, but enough for his energy when running 24/7.
btw: the project isn't down that often as it was during phase I. I was very happy the last weeks as it really was what I would call "stable" maybe once a month with some downtime, but personally I haven't remarked more.

@Max Tractor hmmm don't know about the tweaks but the client and the system is the same as when I started D2OL (almost a year ago now)

[perkam]

I'll start up later this week.

Good to have a stable connection then . What about the candidate/point issues? Still got cands that won't get points if you return them?

EDIT:

I already did 2 candidates in the last hours!! YEAH!!

If you have a fast Rig, you'll see a lot more WU's returned than you did on Rosetta...

It'll fly on my X2 when I get it running

I know, the team was still running D2OL when I bought my D820 (imagine how old it is, it's a rev. A0, lol). I know about good output

well the only thing you have to look at - don't get the assigned tasks over the amount you can do in 4 weeks. They implemented a 4 week deadline for every task to avoid such huge dumps as we've seen in phase I.
I haven't remarked any candidate/point issues within the last weeks. every WU was credited as it should so nothing to worry about

[InSanCen]

Yep... only pulled 500 or so down, see how it goes for now... a bit weird not setting the Queue size to 2000...

[Martijn]

That sucks. I'm now stuck with 2000 cands on my P3, lol... What can I do about it? The program won't remove them when I set my queue lower, isn't it?

[Max Tractor]

The client is running very well, and doing very well indeed on my opteron

[SoF]

1. go offline
2. if not already done lower tasks assigned
3. stop calculations
4. flush all tasks
5. go online again and do a manual update

now you will only get the ammount of tasks you want

@Max Tractor indeed
Milestones Today
max_tractor passes 100

All rigs are back on D²OL right now... they'll never know what hits them

Picked up another few and added the other nodes, great stuff

[InSanCen]

We're starting to pick up the pace...

Now, let's hope my X2-4200 gets a UPS soon... (The power in this area is lethal at the moment, took out my old Liebert 1500VA, power co is buying me a new one... in theory... they say they have ordered it, been waiting a month for delivery!)

[Martijn]

Thanks SoF!
