Folding Forum

As I read it, the point is that they want to change the theme frequently as long as it is not auto, and digging into the settings all the time is tedious. Hence their suggestion to make it automatic, depending on the system preferences. It would be nice to extend the web client with something like, ...

<config/> is the default, empty config (I've looked into that myself while switching to v8.5.5 today). The file can be used to di the initial configuration of the client on a headless/text-based install, as is described in the v8.5 guide (and yes, I've done that part as well today on my server).

Fully agree on that. Using buid containers in the release process would make it easy to offer the fahclient for other distros on the official fah page - low maintenance, low effort, virtually no costs, greatly appreciated by many. And it wouldn't depend on a volunteer, however well meant.

It's not that difficult to use containers to build for other distros. It's quick, clean and does not require running all those distros as servers. That would also be ideal in a build proces. I'm happy to share the dockerfile and script I have for rpm, however sloppy yhat script is

I see the bad allocation messages frequently, but only on jobs for project 18261. Which may or may not be related. To be sure I double checked my SSD health, and it is 100% fine. 18261 requires 10GB of free RAM to get a request for it. Once received, if free RAM dips below required, you might get i...

Welcome to the forum :) There may be a broken link somewhere, could you tell hoe you got to that download page? Oh, and the url of the broken page itself. I won't be able to fix it, but someone will. When you go to https://foldingathome.org/, then select Download from the top menu items, there's a l...

https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/ is collecting and processing those files. The datebase on EOC does not keep track the full history, but you may wanna check it out anyway to see if it's of use to you.

The CPU is ARM based, and afaik the ARM client does not support GPU folding anyway

Yay, thanks toTOW! I do have the r/w access to the beta forum now.

Kernel updates tend to break nVidia drivers depending on how you installed them. So it usually requires a driver reinstallation. To prevent this, first install dkms, then install nvidia drivers and have it register with dkms. Then whenever a kernel update is installed, the nvidia drivers are automa...

Welcome back! A lot has changed in the net client. Check out https://foldingathome.org/guides/v8-4-client-guide/, in paticular the parts about creating an account (with user name and passphrase) and the account settings (with the user name and passkey you used in the past).

This situation - waiting for a new assignment - could happen in v7 as well, it just didn't show like this. Instead the v7 client would show as a green status 'ready' (I believe).

Uploading 16525 does work fine for me, so it's not failing for everyone. So the question is: what's different, that it fails for some, but not for others. So, let's see if we can pinpoint a bit... I'm running v7 clients only right now. Both my Windows machines and my Ubuntu server have processed (an...

It'd be more interesting if you'd now be 1,744,028 of 1,000,000 But grats on the move to 27
