FahMon 2.3.0

I'll sticky with Egon's monitor for the time-being for remote monitoring - as I like the real PPD totals it gives at the end of a WU (as most of my farm is office hours only) even if they are really poor, and my workstation can out preform them all

Every little helps - and their on anyway so why not.

You can do "real" PPD totals in FahMon too. Just use the "effective rate" option.

So you can

Even more impressed than I already was.

Seems ok here, obviously throws a fit when it can't write to the destination directory over the network. Might want to silence that or at least stop it from popping up a zillion error dialogues.

OK, I've got that fixed. It was my fault

I told it to produce a dialog box on errors instead of just logging them silently.

Is this available for Linux?

I'm afraid a lot of this remote monitoring marlarky is over my head :confused:

2 points: ETA still seems to be calculated up to frame 99 with Linux version
i.e. frame 99 time to finish 0 minutes but still 1 frame to crunch.
Have to use asynchronous clocks switch as running via VMware. Is this something to live with or will I ever see the green icon?

It will be but not yet as I can't guarantee that the Linux source will compile at any particular point in time.

I'm hopefully going to be setting up a proper development website with SVN, so when that's done, you'll be able to download the bleeding-edge source (unsupported of course

)

@Pilgrim57: I'll check that 99% issue. It certainly shouldn't be happening, but if there's a problem with the code, I'll fix it.
As for vmware, until Linux hosts can timekeep properly inside VMs, there's not much you can do I'm afraid, as FahMon bases it's monitoring system on times between frames.

Thanks for that Uncle Fungus.

Ok you can now take a look at what's set to become the new fahmon website here: http://fahmon.net

If you want to download the current development snapshot (r38), download this zip file: http://trac.fahmon.net/changeset/38/trunk?old_path=/&format=zip

The website theme is based largely around the pidgim.im and adiumx.com websites, and I'm still working on tweaking things here and there.
The about page contains nothing yet, and I haven't even started setting up the wiki for the "Support and Development" section.

shadowscotland · 5 Oct 2007 at 09:23

simple and to the point - but you'll need to sort out the way it views.
In IE6 if it's not full screen you can't read the bottom of the page (scroll bar don't work :confused:

)

screenie attached so I make sence

uncle_fungus · 5 Oct 2007 at 09:29

Ah yes, IE manages to screw up well and truly on several pages.

EditL OK the scrollbar issue is fixed, as is some of the nastiness on the news page.

uncle_fungus · 5 Oct 2007 at 12:03

Right, all the IE formatting issues should have been fixed now.

Some of them were my fault, some of them we're due to IE's incompetence (like for some reason a width of 200px doesn't really equal 200px).

Good ole IE's crappity box-model. They clearly found it in the bin, brushed it off and then implemented it.

Yeah, it really is the most useless implementation ever.

The question is, does it now work in IE7, or am I going to have to write some more code to unbreak all the stupidity that IEs <7 introduced.

SiriusB · 5 Oct 2007 at 13:04

I think it does. Although I don't have IE7 so I can tell you for sure.

shadowscotland · 5 Oct 2007 at 13:14

Have to use IE6 here at work - some of our software needs it to run :rolleyes:

It's not through choice I asure you (but does help the folding farm talk with the outside world so can't be all bad

)

Cob · 5 Oct 2007 at 17:13

Well it works in IE7, but you also get this-

SiriusB · 5 Oct 2007 at 17:18

I think we should set up a separate internet for IE browsers, leaving the Internet free for real browsers.

That's what I thought might happen.

I need to alter the "unbreak" IE code to not apply to IE 7

Edit: OK should be ok for all IEs now. The only thin I can see wrong now is that IE 6 decides to turn the link text red on the "Support & Development" page, whereas in FireFox it's white.
It can probably changed by classing the links differently.

leave it Uncle - it's like you've stumbled on an easter egg or something - then again you're just be answering the same 'why do it do this' question day after day. Change it - and change it quickly
