Folding Forum

Hi Everyone, Would it be better to accept that if windows is going to force the Fahclient to close, that the software can save its current WU's, or have a somekind memoryfile in place so it could potentially recover. I appreciate that there probably is a reason why fahclient is built as it is, but ...

PPD issue is known. In regards to windows updates, you will have to control them better. When you see them lined up to be done, pause folding, update windows. Windows updates are annoying, I know, but they are also lethal for windows apps, as updates ignore them running and just restart the PC anyways

Logs of FAHclient would help to see what exactly is happening

Yeah, can't believe it has been 14 years since it showed up in Sandy bridge

You may be confusing the existence of AVX supporting 128-bit SIMD as well as 256-bit SIMD. As initially implemented by AMD the 128-bit SIMD instructions were often faster, some unofficially called that "AVX 128". AVX2 then made most of the vector integer instructions 256-bit, before many ...

That was Intel SSE with the 128-bit registers; MMX was 64-bit and AVX introduced 256-bit registers. AVX is also when x86 picked up dedicated FMA instructions.

Alternative reality strikes again

Mesa icd loader hides AMD rocm from the FAHclient. When you remove mesa ICD loader, you have to then follow the guide I linked to get rocm runtime installed and opencl icd loader installed (non Mesa). I have 9070 folding on mint 22.1 without any issues. At one point Mesa pushed their own icd loader ...

Leave noble repo

log extracts or it didn't happen

P.S. nice way to expose your email address to the internet

ive tried all sorts of solutions for FaH to recognise my 9070xt - on latest kernel - added nobel repository etc it only starts working after a few restarts and numerous attempts opencl keeps saying 0 specified devices 11:56:46:I1:WU48:Platform 0: Reference 11:56:46:I1:WU48:Platform 1: CPU 11:56:46:...

Hello, what is the differense between passkey and Account token? Or is it the same? I´m using passkey in my ubuntu config.xml, but the client does not start. CU Alteir passkey != password/passcode/passphrase != Account token passkey is used within your account to tie your username as a unique ident...

For Fedora users libstdc++.so.6 is located in /lib64 directory

Ok no bugs then. But a better info would be appreciated by folding. And about my nick. To separate equal names thats what the passkey is for? Still no WUs or score in my client. In my team it shows... I might change to a unique name tho. It takes time for stats to sync and update. It takes more tim...

yeh, the GPU 7600 gets around 2,2 M PPD on Windows; it starts out sometimes with 200.000 and then seem to finish/or switch to the bigger number; just for reference, to document the oddities; the small SBC pine a64+ got normally around PPD with number 800-900; now , switched the router; and suddenly...

These are not bugs. When creating a nickname, think first if you want something unique to you. How many other eagles do you think there are in FAH community? Seeing how this is a very common word, and beloved animal, you will see a lot of users using eagle (Eagle) as username. fah stats do not care ...
