Thanks kyleb ... Points were credited on the last hour.

You can natively run GPU Folding on Puppy Linux if you use FatDog which is the 64-bit version of Puppy. Like in any 64-bit linux distribution, currently you have to use FAHcore 0x17 and you have to meet the system requirements described in the FAH v7 installation instructions. In my first post of th...

As most Puppy installations are 32-bit, I have looked further into the use of the V7 FAHClient. On a 32-bit installation, FAHClient will detect the number of processors available and it is capable of running multiple cpus using smp. The main difference between the 32-bit and 64-bit installations is ...

"sudo apt-get install openssh-server" ... Puppy is not quite that compatible with ubuntu. Precise puppy is a 32-bit linux, so you will not be able to run a smp folding client. For an openssh-server, see the following links: http://puppylinux.org/wikka/SshWithPuppy http://murga-linux.com/pu...

Actually, I have used the v6 smp client on FatDog ... I used it for a few months before trying the v7 client. For the v6 smp client on FatDog (version 521), I just extracted the client, went into that directory and configured it using this command: ./fah6 -configonly After that, I just started it us...

FatDog is a 64-bit version of Puppy Linux. I use this as a frugal install on a small USB stick to run the FAH v7 client in the SMP mode. To conserve power, I shut down the swap and turn off the hard drive when folding. My post on Feb. 24, 2013 at the following link describes how I installed the FAH ...

That makes sense .... thanks for the help guys.

I'll let it finish this WU ... probably take it a couple of days as it's a rather ancient beast. It also runs a v6 GPU client (using wine), so it keeps busy.

Thanks for that suggestion ... Per your recommendation, I set the "Folding Power" slider in FAHControl to Full and the folding slots now indicates cpu:2 From the log file when i restarted the client, it now shows: 22:09:07: <!-- Folding Slot Configuration --> 22:09:07: <cause v='ANY'/> 22:...

In the past, I have been successfully running FAH v6 on a linux box with the -smp option. It runs fine with FahCore_a3.exe using both cores of an old Pentium D. From FAHlog.txt, it appears that -np 2 would indicate 2 processors: Calling './FahCore_a3.exe -dir work/ -nice 19 -suffix 09 -np 2 -checkpo...

The installation instructions (for linux smp) used cURL to download the FAH tar file. Seems it would have been easier to just download this tar file directly from the browser. (I had to compile/install cURL to do this step) Is this the only time that cURL is used, or does the FAH program itself requ...
