A great big warm welcome to the team!

If you haven't done so already then why not check out the Folding@Home Setup Guide and the Quickie Guide for more foldy-tastic tips especially for when you're in a rush


Ouch - looked like we got it handed back to us this week
Still we've still got a very healthy production even without Whitestar's standard clients picking up silly pointed Double-Gro units - way to go everybody and here's to next week!
If you've not been mentioned either I've made a mistake or your stats haven't changed since last week - give a shout and let us know you're still alive
***Only got one machine crunching? - Have a looky here***

[.:MBK:.]

is the single machine table based on weekly or total output?

 

[shadowscotland]

weekly

edit: rubish week for me - lost a days crunching on 3 of the work c2d due to deadline and the looping batch file
home rig on standard units
and as I've give up late nights at work for lent - people keep switch my pc off -
'Oh thank you, that was kind of you to notice'
note to self: detach case leds

Thanks for the news rich - next week should be better

 

[rich99million]

and as I've give up late nights at work for lent - people keep switch my pc off -
'Oh thank you, that was kind of you to notice'
note to self: detach case leds

I find a blob of blue tac over the offending LED usually does the trick

 

[Berserker]

Cor. Look at all those giant Tiffy-Kats.

Thanks Rich, as always.

 

[theheyes]

Ouch! A lot of red but still a healthy output nonetheless. I wonder if the PS3 problems have affected the points... although I didn't think we had that many PS3s running.

 

[shadowscotland]

IT'S ALIVE !

LinuxSMP in the house - all thanks to the boys at Finstall central.
and I forgot how much I like the Ubuntu desktop....

..and fahmon too (never had an easier install)

 

[Darryn]

My output seems a little low... i think my iMac client must have decided to stop working...

Suppose my new computer arrives my output will go up somewhat... Dual-Quad 2.8ghz should help me...

 

[rich99million]

My output seems a little low... i think my iMac client must have decided to stop working...

Suppose my new computer arrives my output will go up somewhat... Dual-Quad 2.8ghz should help me...

If you haven't installed the updated client then that will be it - the previous version expired a week ago and if it's been restarted since then it will have refused to run.

Check the download page for the updated client

 

[booyaka]

not bad week from me but lost some crunching time with the updated SMP client - seems to be a bit flaky to me. Never had as many loses of wireless connection since i updated. Basically fine in a morning when i leave for work but back at nighttime (both yesterday and today) and it's stopped working cause i've lost my connection. hhmmm

Will see how it goes over next few days.

Welcome to the noobs and fold on team 10!

Question - will 4gb of ram make any difference to crunching? - going from 2gb?

 

[Yeggstry]

Good work again rich

I think its more a case of there being a general problem rather than us, especially since we still kept our 15th position in production Looks like we're coming back up anyway, go team 10!

 

[jaric]

Cheers for the news Rich.

Switched the work borg over to a couple of LinuxSMP clients today which seems to be good for 2000ppd (E6750 @ stock). Together with the quad I'm hoping to hit around 7k ppd next week
Might just catch those slackers above me before Mr Webster arrives to give us a good stomping

 

[Stan_Lite]

Who's the daddy?

Finally seem to have things under control - just in time too since I'm away now. Will be keeping a close eye on things through the goodness of remote desktop Should have a little more next week as long as things stay as they are.

Thanks as always to Rich for the news and a warm Foldy type welcome to the new peeps

FOLD ON TEAM 10

 

[ms9cw]

Way to go, Bigstan & magman! Excellent production. Thanks for the news again, Rich (and congrats to your recent entry into the seven-digit club). There seems to be something really weird going with PS3 folding at the moment. All the PS3 teams seem to be suffering from much lower production which is why there's no-one on the threat radar despite our own drop in production.

Fold on Team 10

ms9cw

 

[mattbrown91]

Just got a Q6600, all wired up and ready to fold.

10,000 points next week hopefully.

 

[Darryn]

Ive had confirmation that my new rig should land Wednesday this week, anyone care to guess the PPD that it will pump out?

2x Xeon 5400 Quad 2.8ghz... running the OSX console client.

 

[Berserker]

Depends what the memory bandwidth is like, but you should be able to dominate the single cruncher league with it at any rate.

 

[Yeggstry]

Depends what the memory bandwidth is like, but you should be able to dominate the single cruncher league with it at any rate.

Nooooooooo, you're not allowed! My Q9450 is only a month away :'(

 

[Darryn]

I wont be retiring the old Macpro or iMac... so i wont be allowed in the single cruncher league...

Not sure about the memory bandwidth spec, i know its coming with 2x 1gb DDR800 FBDimms, but that will be getting switched to 4x 2gb FBDimms as soon as they hit the UK shelves.

 

[Berserker]

You could always start a second account if you wanted to attack the singles. Of course, that and a Macpro (assuming it's a decent spec one) should do you well on the regular league too.
