Re: MY compu seems to freeze

Grrr. Can't figure out what power supply to get to replace the one we have, which doesn't even fit in the new case. Here's the specs again... Operating System: PCLinuxOS 2021 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.78.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.9.16-pclos1 OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 8 × AMD Ryzen 5 3...

Re: MY compu seems to freeze

Thanks, guys. Our new case just arrived and we've pretty much migrated the system. i'm enamored of the red LEDs on the fan that's on the front of the case. However we had such a small power supply that we couldn't affix it to the case and so it's lying on its side... waiting, probably for another ps...

Re: MY compu seems to freeze

Yeroon - thank you very much for your contribution. i d/l the y-cruncher and figured out how to run it - a little - but i really don't know what inputs i should give it. The other one, the ryzen_smu says that it's a kernel something-or-other and from what little i know about the inner workings of Li...

Re: MY compu seems to freeze

Thank you for posting, Yeroon. No, we haven't run any program to verify system stability under loads. i looked up y-cruncher in my Synaptic list, but didn't find it. As far as ryzen_smu is concerned, i don't know what it is. Is it something in BIOS? or a little program which can be d/l and used? i'm...

Re: MY compu seems to freeze

Wow, psaam0001 - thanks for replying! i still need to get some paste but in the meantime, i'll check out the fan speed setting and see what happens when i turn this back on again. i suspect it will eventually freeze and i'll have a chance to shut it off and go into the BIOS. Please take care and sta...

Re: MY compu seems to freeze

Thanks, guys. Well, at this point i relocated the Web Control and set it at folding while idle which sent the temps from 58 C to 29 C. Heat sink paste - i'll have to see if my son-in-law or son have some leftover. This thing is sitting all "neked" next to me, so it'll be easy to work on - ...

Re: MY compu seems to freeze

Wow, another poster! Thanks for replying Neil-B! Uh, i'm using a small program called gKrellm which gives me the temps. At this point they're at 28 C. i'll try d/l and running it again but what i saw before the unit froze was up around 58 C. i need to figure out how to use the control panel or whate...

Re: MY compu seems to freeze

Thanks for replying, bruce! Well, our system is only a month or so old. It's got the big CPU fan and actually it's sitting on its side with the "top" off at this point - so it's totally open. It's not overclocked. Maybe it just can't be used for FAH. Have a radiant morning and as always, p...

Re: My compu freezes

Dear Jimbo: Thank you very much for replying so quickly! i d/l, installed and started folding w/ 7.6.21 but after less than a min. the sys. froze and we had to hit the power button to turn off the compu. Rebooted into Safe mode and disinstalled FAH. This morning we went into /var/lib/fahclient and f...

MY compu seems to freeze

Am using PCLinuxOS fully updated and a Ryzen 5 and FAH 7.4.4.1 and after a while the compu freezes.

Re: Can't seem to get FAHControl to run

lpki - It seems you're everywhere! Thanks for responding. i was going to ask if it would be sufficient for my friend to place an already formatted .xml file there, but i still have the question about how to run the FAHControl. And if i can get that run, that will create the proper file in /var/lib/f...

Can't seem to get FAHControl to run

i've already intalled this on my system, a PCLinuxOS desktop and gotten it to work. However i'm trying to make a writeup for another PCLinuxOS user and i find i can't remember how i got the information into the .xml file - lol. Old age has finally set in. i can go into /usr/bin and see the .xml file...

Re: Synaptic wants to uninstall FAHClient, etc.

O.k., ipkh. i appreciate your comment. So, i'll go ahead and try to make up some sort of bash script to reinstall - maybe i could do one that would first d/l the newest version and then install. So, please have a safe week and thanks again for helping. Oh, btw, the packages are *.rpm, not *.deb, but...

Re: Synaptic wants to uninstall FAHClient, etc.

Boy, you guys are Fast! Thanks all for responding. It looks like i d/l the 7.4.1 version, but it seems to work just fine. However, as the last poster noted, i Cannot "'pin" the packages nor, like i mentioned in the first post, can i unmark them for removal. As soon as i hit the X, the prog...
