Folding@Home Weekly Team News - 2nd June 2006

[divine`]

With all the windows open and a huuuge fan blowing at it, it seems to think its about 71C (3500+ venice at stock)

I'm a little dubious as to whether it actually is that temperature though, as it doesn't seem unstable at all

 

[Mattus]

Feel the heatsink. The only method you can rely on.

 

[BillytheImpaler]

Put a temp probe on the IHS.

 

[Whitestar]

OK OT

nice dumpage!!!


oh that reminds me - I'm going away this weekend so the Friday news might not be on Friday
I've not decided the best course of action yet, probably leaning towards doing it with data from a full 24hrs early on Thursday so I can scale the team production to 7/6ths

Going back to Whitestar's earlier post....

I seem to remember claiming BTI. Therefore, if he is my property, then so is the mahoooosive dumpage he has just performed.

Hand over the points, serf

[BillytheImpaler]

Right then, Stan, to redeem your n00b bonus begin by changing all your rigs over to username "BillytheImpaler(OcUK)"...

Why the different username for that dumpage?

 

[BillytheImpaler]

BillytheImpaler(OcUK) is my main account. The_Ohio_Psycho is my Xeon battle name. I only use that name for the Xeon machine and it is eligible to compete among the single machines crunchers. Dunc has a battle name as well, The_Alabama_Slamma.

In reality, having one separate account for my test-n-tune machine makes it easier to watch for troubles.

 

[Indy500]

Is that dual or quad?

 

[BillytheImpaler]

Dual Prestonia 1.6 GHz LV at 3.2 GHz with HyperThreading enabled.

Nice. Outproduces my X2 no doubt, specially with those damn QMDs...

 

[BillytheImpaler]

There haven't been any QMDs since January.

All I get these days are huge Double Gromacs WUs. Not like I'm complaining though. I get similar PPD and instead of using 200 MiB RAM they use 10 MiB.

 

[Indy500]

95% of the units I get now are <200 points.

 

[Whitestar]

Right. Am in the process of moving my machines to folding. Got it all set up and working fine.
Just one question.
Is there a switch to make fahmon start minimized to the tray?

 

[A.N.Other]

Is there a switch to make fahmon start minimized to the tray?

I don't believe so, although I too would be interested if anyone knows differently.

More alarms today \o/

I think I might just turn the alarm off in the BIOS next time I reboot.

Damn south facing room, far too hot.
