Adding new client to Fahmon on Macbook

ms9cw · 1 Mar 2008 at 07:31

I've just purchased my first Macbook (White 2.4GHz C2D) and so I'm still getting used to using it. I've installed the Mac F@H Client and started it off. The Activity monitor shows something is going on but I'd like to use Fahmon to monitor progress. However I can't seem to select the Folding @ Home directory when trying to add a client to Fahmon :confused:

. Can anyone help?

Drag and drop your folding folder into FahMon.
You can do the same thing on Windows and Linux too.

Do you not find the fans incredibly annoying? That and the general heat make me not bother folding on the MacBook.

I use smcFanControl to run the fans a little faster than what the Mac considers 'enough' (which is less than I want) and keep a lid on temperatures on my Mac Mini. I assume it'll work on the Macbooks too.

Not really. Most of the time I'll be in a separate room anyway.

Where exactly is it? I've tried looking using Finder and searching for 'FAHLog.txt' but I only find the Viewer application (which doesn't work - but Sandford already know this)

If you used the installer then all the relevant files should be in ~/Library/Folding@home

Found it. Thanks
