New F@H Windows SMP client available - Page 2 - Club CD Freaks

debro · 30-09-2007

I wish they'd just release a Non-expiring release ... then I can just deploy the SMP client on a few remote PC's ......

Agreed on that part. It was only by chance browsing the F@H forums that I noticed it.

The new client doesn't work on Vista 64bit.

Yep. no problems with the old version. With some fiddling around i got the new one working.
I'm glad i had a backup.

**Arachne** · 01-10-2007

How strange! Glad you managed to get it working though

Bob · 20-10-2007

ok so it's been awhile as i have had a few new burners and my new machine to love and hold

i decided it was time to fold again for awhile.

Took me about an hour to upgrade new FAH 6 beta 1 for Ubuntu Linux. My memory is not what it used to be

I forgot how i updated last July

I also had butt loads of Ubuntu updates too

Caturday, of course it is!

Nope, but I'm due a format on this machine soon, so stay tuned

**zevia** · 20-10-2007

welcome back rolling!

Bob · 20-10-2007

Thank you Zevi

Edit:
It will be of course tomorrow till i can finish for points.

Bob · 22-10-2007

Any reason my machine is only running at 50% on both processors with new client 6 beta 1? I looked through the FAH folder and found nothing to change.

Steps are taking twice as long as before.

Bob · 23-10-2007

No one knows how to speed it up eh

I dl'd it last night & am pleased to say that I am getting 100% CPU usage on my quad.
I'm not pleased to say that the 100% usage is only on a single core ..... the other three cores are practically 0% utilisation.

WTF?

Extend the deadlines for Beta 5? That worked!

Congrats on the quad

I looked through my setup and both cores at listed in VMware like they should be so i have no idea at this time. Anyone else with the same problem?

debro · 25-10-2007

5 computers to fix up in the immediate future

Is it still 50% each core rolling?

I let it finish and shut it down.

333 points for 2 days work was kind of ridicules.

**zevia** · 26-10-2007

I stopped using Ubuntu client because it's eating sources, unlike windows smp clients that will halt/lower the cpu usage if we use the PC for heavy programs (ie games or encoding). Maybe Dee can help, or alternatively how about trying Windows SMP Clients. The guides is in the sticky thread.

Aww ... geee .. I feel like a real goofball ....

RTFM, right?

The new (X86_64) Linux Client is a unified client (smp& single thread in one proggie)-> you have to fire it up with "./fah6 -smp" otherwise it runs in single core mode

I just can't wait for the 2week mark to be passed so I can start overclocking

Otherwise the heatsink compound hasn't set in right

Bob · 27-10-2007

sudo bash
(password if needed)
cd /home/rolling56/FAH
./fah6 -smp

I get an I/0 error

sudo bash
(password if needed)
cd /home/rolling56/FAH
./fah6 -forceasm

Fires it up but only get 50% on both cores.

Any more ideas are welcome.
