Folding Forum

I got fahclient working, but whenever I try to install fahcontrol, I get this error message:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
fahcontrol: Depends: python-gnome2 but it is not installable
Recommends: fahviewer but it is not installable

Tried to manually install python-gnome2 but that also failed. I haven't tried this on stock Ubuntu 19.10 yet, but I doubt the result will be different since Pop is based off it. Please help me out.

Also, quick question while I'm here: does web control automatically give tasks for the GPU, or do I need fahcontrol for that?

There are some other topics here that talk about issues getting FAHControl working on some of the newer distributions.

As to the Web Control, if the installer successfully detected your GPU and the driver and OpenCL packages, then it can control both a CPU and a GPU folding slot.

Try xubuntu and then
sudo apt-get install python 2.7
