Folding Forum

I found out unfortunately that Windows 7 can go to sleep with FAH, CPU and GPU running. It's annoying to wake up in the morning and find that if folded for only 30 minutes after you last used it.

I was afraid of that. I'm trying to get the drive to work again if even just to get the files off of it. I put it into another PC as a slave device, and it shows 1328.8 GB (I double-checked that). It should be only 160GB, and the machine won't boot even with it as a slave drive. I hate to see these ...

Is there a way to determine what units were being worked on by a client?
I had a hard drive refuse to boot recently. I would like to complete those units or at least free them up again sooner for the general pool.

How did 6-month olds survive before the last century?

One client has been attempting to upload results since March 7. Is there something I need to do to get it to upload the results?
Is another forum group better-suited for asking about uploading results?
Thanks,

I wasn't using bash it turned out, but a different shell. I couldn't install it under the other shell, but it installed without a hitch using bash once I realized it wasn't the bash shell by default. My mistake then was using the wrong directory in the command to start it.

I just got it working. I was trying to start the script with /etc/init.d/folding start (like I do on the suse machine) instead of /home/uasil/foldingathome/folding start.
Thanks!

I got it to use bash instead of some other shell that it had been using. It is the most current version of finstall. I still haven't gotten it to go yet, so this pc is one of the few we have on all the time, and it's not folding again (yet). I didn't know that the number was the line number. That wi...

I'm attempting to install finstall on a machine running Ubuntu using the instructions on this page: http://fahwiki.net/index.php/A_Complete ... or_NEWbies I've installed it on a machine running Opensuse, and it has been running for awhile. I'm getting this error on the Ubuntu machine though: $ ./fin...

Someone in the IT department should be able to tell you what the university's regulations are regarding such matters. I wouldn't install it on a PC that anybody uses without their permission, even if the pc belongs to the university or is under their support. This is after you get permission from th...

... I meant to say thanks for the encouragement and hit the button too soon.

The points don't motivate me, but the possibility of it helping someone enjoy a healthier life does.

Well, I created a team and found that my suggestion wouldn't work after all. There is an option to set a password to prevent others from pretending to be you, and I had anticipated a similar option for teams. It looks like any team created is a free-for-all. It would be convenient if it were otherwi...

The offending person is on your team. Rather than filtering names, can we not restrict rogue users from joining our team? I don't have a team, so I don't know how possible it is to limit who joins one. It seems an easier solution.
