Being able to see how long each problem has been folding and over the Internet is neat. Great work. Other Folders see post #28, highly recommended.

Thanks for the endorsement! I've had a blast creating it-- I live for short, well-defined projects like this!

How do you do it? I see from your server you don't have a single 2106, 2107, or 2108 out of 5 machines.

You got me. Up until a few days ago, they were all working on 2106 and 2107. I haven't seen 2108 yet on any of my machines. It's actually eight machines/processors. My brother (the Linux god) is working on the upload script for Linux-- then I'll be able to rope in the remaining ones.

Cool, let me know when the Linux one is ready. I am trying to get an older P3 to put it on.

I really like what you have done. I missed up my initial scheduling last night - I should have followed your instructions, but they all see to be working fine now. How hard would it be to have the a freepmail or email sent, if we have a stray for the day or several hours?

Thanks again. This could really raise our points, if many of us start using this to help us monitor our folding. BTW, I didn't realize andyk was coming on so strong until I clicked his link! Wow! He is targeting our top ten in a few weeks or months.

Must Find More CPUs!!!!

Hey, Egon, would you ask your brother if there is any way to configure the Linux FAHconsole to use more memory?

I'm running FAH in a shell-Konsole of a standard version of MEPIS on an older system with 512 MB ram, but FAH is only using 96 MB which leaves 81% free. No other programs are running (except the weather utility which is auto-installed with Mepis).

I'm hoping that giving the program more physical memory might speed up folding of larger WU's. Of course, that may just be whistling Dixie in the dark, LOL.

If he has any other tricks or tips, I welcome them.
Thanks,
RT
