Alright alright, I'll stick some cores on here. I now sleep in the same room as my pc though (thanks to impending baby) so can only crunch during the day. How long is left?

ozaudio · 25 Feb 2016 at 19:25

( guilty ) haha , were half way through. you never know, the noise of fans might be comforting for a baby haha

Devrij · 25 Feb 2016 at 19:31

I just updated one machine with the app you listed above will try get it on my other one also tonight. Midas still not playing

We're currently catching 2nd (Planet 3DNow) at the rate of almost 300k a day.

Unfortunately, we need to be catching them by more like 800k a day to take 2nd.

Anyone got enough machines to make up a 500k/day deficit? It's a lot of hardware, but we're currently racking up 1.3m/day, so it's not completely unrealistic.

MORE SPEED CAP'N! MORE SPEED!

I'm giving her all she's got

I have two X99 boards but no CPUs for them

might be able to dig up a laptop or two but not enough to make a noticeable difference...

colinmcr · 25 Feb 2016 at 21:46

Ok I got both working pc's and a laptop on this now with the app Hanluc posted link to.

Not sure if this will help anyone but got it working under Ubuntu server 14.04 64bit with this...

sudo -i
cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d
echo "deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring main restricted universe multiverse" >ia32-libs-raring.list
apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib

andy_taximan · 25 Feb 2016 at 22:57

gcc-multilib is a bit of a sledgehammer fix (I found that one while looking for the one I used), but if it works, then don't knock it.

Beware that glibc has a DNS-related vulnerability (well publicised, so look it up if you want the gory details). Anyone installing now (at least with 14.04) should get a patched version, but if you've got older Linuxes floating around, be careful.

drakioned · 26 Feb 2016 at 01:30

Getting tougher and tougher to advance ranks... might need an upgrade before the next one.

Streetlight · 26 Feb 2016 at 06:33

Running 24amps thur a 20amp breaker cant be good long term and 24/7, so Cant give 100% myself . Even my p4 rig is offline...

Will try and get it sorted for next time.

ozaudio · 26 Feb 2016 at 06:43

I kind of see you, me, and PDW moving up as a bit of a block to be honest.

Ah, struggling to keep up with you now Chris.

2.5 days left to try and overtake ozaudio and keep Streetlight at bay.

ozaudio · 26 Feb 2016 at 19:36

you've got me

I borrowed some cores to try and keep up with PDW but it's not happening.

There's probably a link to this somewhere but I can't find it so here's the rankings for the challenge taken from BOINCstats. Don't know why Dev or Peter Colbrook are not on there as they are listed as active members on Enigma.
