Folding@Home Team Ubuntu recruiting notice

[jerenept]

Im folding on my torrent server, a 2.6GHz Celeron, which takes about 1.5 days per WU. I use origami to monitor, and use a little bash script to send the status and temps to a web directory, so I can monitor it without needing to ssh in. I didn't spend more than five minutes on it, so the output isn't very refined

Oh, I almost forgot to mention, the reason it takes 1.5 days per WU is because it only folds between 5pm and 8am. I don't want to rocket my electricity bill >.<

Celerons aren't likely to increase ur power bill by much; they are predominantly mobile/budget architectures (like my Sempron). Besides, a system like that would probably draw only about 150W at load, so your power bill would rocket by about...... 2 cents. So don't worry about your bill, unless you are overclocking to a large degree
Hope this helps.

I run a Dell Optiplex GX150, PIII/256MB RAM, 20GB HDD, 24/7 as my standalone headless firewall/router. It rarely spins up the drive & the CPU barely does more than idle.

I measured the electrical power usage of this machine over a period of some days. @ 19 cents a kW it costs $54-/year to run. That is Oz dollars which are about the same as the US dollar these days.

So that gives some idea of the costs. If the CPU was working harder &/or the drive was working it would cost more.

I doubt very much that a Celeron would use less than the PIII 700Mhz.

Ok guys,i received my new parts and mounted my new rig.

i have made an image of my old rig with remastersys.
(it was an athlon x2 6400+)

Now i have phenom II x6 1090T clocked at 4017.464 MHz.
I have installed my image from the previous machine but Origami is still using 2 cores instead of 6?

Somebody know what i should do to make origami using my 6 cores ?

Best regards,have a nice day.

you'll have to run

sudo origami erase&&sudo origami install -u ~username~ -t 45104.

for it to d/l clients for the other cores.
Note: any current folding you are doing will be lost.
P.S. Are you using X64 Ubuntu? I find I get slightly higher PPD"s using the 64-bit client.

Ok i will try this imediatly,thanks for your quick reply budy .

Do you think i will have to reboot to make it effective ?

Yes i am using X64

Sorry, I changed the command I posted a minute ago, 'cause I realised you need to remove the current client first. The command to remove is

sudo origami erase

note: This command will erase any progress you have made on current clients you are running.

Yep, thats what i was thinking to remove it and then reinstall.

Thanks jerenept

Best regards.
