Sort of odd. Half the boxes allowed me to just delete the work folder from the gui, the others needed to be removed from terminal. There was no "open as administrator" option from the right click menu. "sudo rm -r 02" and then my password worked from the command line. Linux conti...

Thanks.

Linux noob here. Can some tell me how to dump a work unit in Linux? I'm on Ubuntu 18.04. My googling did not return anything helpful.

Do I delete the core or the work?

How do get around not having permission to rm?

All of my CPU slots on Linux boxes have been idle since the middle of yesterday (Monday, Nov 30). They all are trying to reach 129.32.209.204. Some, depending on when they finished their last WU, have been down over a day an a half. Also, the attempt behavior is different than usual. Instead of incr...

will be very interested to see what 0.0.13 can do with a 3080 Some quick numbers from Project 11765 in Linux: TPF 73s - GTX 1080Ti running OpenCL/ 1.554 M PPD TPF 57s - GTX 1080Ti running CUDA / 2.253 M PPD TPF 49s - RTX 2080Ti running OpenCL/ 2.826 M PPD TPF 39s - RTX 2080Ti running CUDA / 3.981 M...

My Integrated Intel HD530 graphics started showing up as a GPU slot about a month ago. Searching through some of the forum entries, it looks like that GPU might have been added for testing. It's odd that went to non-beta users. Is there more information on if that test is working and if the Intel sl...

Might be worth checking intel site for the Tjmax temp for the CPUs in your server … For enterprise grade servers, under reasonably consistent high CPU load Xeons will be "safe" (or as safe as anything ever is) even just a few degrees below Tjmax is where most FRU/SDR/BMC setups will balan...

Fair enough. Thanks.

Good to know. I will check those out.

My old CPUs (1st generation i7s) have been running for years at 80°C and they are still doing perfectly fine ...

95 to 98 C.

As I add cores in a slot, in what order does either the client or Windows apply them? In a 4 core, hyperthreaded CPU, are 1, 2, 3, and 4 cores and 5, 6, 7, and 8 threads? Or do they alternate? I have a box that just runs hot. I've cleaned up the heatsink, applied new thermal compound, but it maxes o...

So what's the best course of action with a 4 core/8 thread CPU. Mine seem to select 7 threads on their own, but that sounds like a bad idea. Is six better and just leave one idle? 2 slots with 3/4? 6/1? Just leave it at the default setting unless overheating or you are on Windows and need to leave ...

Any word on this issue? I have a couple clients sitting on multiple WUs. Some with 3.
