Guys... check the group stats! :biggrin:
At current rate we'll be ranked 2nd by tomorrow, and 1st probably on the weekend! :)
Have anyone notised our logo inder "Other project"? It is a minilogo as is so sweet and clean. It looks better than or ordinary large one.:icon_cool:
Just
I tried my AMD Athlon 1001 GHz on PI Segment. All went well but when the agent began crunch WIN XP reported “An unwanted failure”. I tried again but as soon the agent began calculate the same thing happened. I didn’t understand anything but then it went up for me the fact this computer doesn’t support SSE2 only MMX and 3DNOW!
I think it was the cause.:icon_wink: :icon_cool:
I emailed JUST asking if it was possible to add banners to the team pages, but he said he had a place especialy for banners and he would put it there.
Had not seen it on the page yet. It's very nice! :)
And it's empty_5oul's banner, not a copy of it, so if we alter the banner to have another message it will show there too.
Is it the one that says "Defend World #1 @ Rank Reisel Sieve (Bonic)? On this page: http://pisegment.vicp.net/project/projectother.aspx Is there any way to put world #1 Tampaku on there also?
Yup, it's possible, but our banner editor is currently away. Empty_5oul entered college this year, and hasn't been around here much since the start of the semester. He's probably still getting the grip of things there.
And if we push it a little this week, we could also add #1 on Pi Segment :icon_wink:
Giving it all I got. I hope Empty does well, the first year sets the mold for the next three (or more). I see too many that come to drink on daddies dime. Then have to go home and flip burgers for the next 30 years.
Me too. This batch of workunits will not last longer than next weekend if my predictions are correct. I think there will be a pause for results examination and further client development after this, so we gotta make it to #1 before work runs out.Quote:

Im doing my best!!
After several BOINC WUs crashed from switching OSes (Vista Ultimate and XP), I've decided to put my computer to this for the time being. :)
I found this problem before. That may contribute to a component the client use to connect the server and it always remember the IP resolved from pisegment.vicp.net. It's okay when server is connected. But when server is temporarily down, this domain may refer to 127.0.0.1. If the client just connect the server in this time, it will remember the 127.0.0.1 and try to connect it forever:(Quote:

Anyway, it will be handled after deployment for server will have a static IP.
well, I forgot it. The current client have to use SSE or SSE2 instructions.Quote:

We are #2!! :)
Everybody take cover! There's a hurricane "Terry" going up the charts at an amazing speed! :icon_eek:
I think not even Snoopy is safe from this one! :P
:wav: Congrats everyone on becoming #2!!!:wav:
My help might come to an end in about 24 hours. You have to love this St. Louis weather, over 70 degrees here today and an ice storm predicted for tomorrow. Ice is the thing that will stop my isp since it's wireless and the antenna is prone to fall off the grain elevator with the weight gain. Of course the tornado that took out their tower last spring wasn't easy to fix like this will be and they were only down for 3 days then.
Vaughan... or Jeff... could one of you (the one with most free time) create us a forum section for Pi Segment please? :)
How do we know when the work in our cache expires? The date is way off, unless I'm reading it wrong.
2006-10-29 22:59:22
EDIT: I'm guessing the dates are 1 month off and the times are related to the computer's?
If Just should read this it would be very nice to have a slot on the "My Devices" page that would tell you the date and time that each machine last contacted the server. I run several machines and had one that for some unknown reason just quit uploading wu's. All I had to do was to go in there and hit "upload now" to fix it but I lost about 20 hours of processing on it. This is in no way the projects fault I should have checked the machine more often. But, it would be very nice to look on the my devices page and be able to tell at a glance that all machines are active.
Yeah, you're right. It's 1 month off. I'll correct it in next version.Quote:

Thank you for advice. I'll add it to my to-do list.Quote:

Could you tell me details? Or send me the LOG?
Since the machine is in my daughters room I'm positive that she was to blame and not the client. I think she might have just shut it down without knowing. She runs about 6 instant message programs at all times and at 14 can create one heck of an enviroment along with online gaming and lord know what else. She's sleeping now but when she goes off to school in the morning I'll try and get the log to you.
We have a nice group running Pi Segment now. There's 20 of us leading the way now. :icon_thumright:
If LeBo keeps up his rate in pi segment, he'll overtake #1 in 14 days!!! Go LeBo!!!
The Dutch Power Cows are coming up strong, with even more members than us... we might have to fight for our #1 spot soon.
You're right NeoGen, the COWS are coming. C'mon guys.
Many users may be curious if you will release your source code if you do a Linux port. I remember reading on your website that you don't release your source for security reasons. Would you do it if you did a Linux client? You wouldn't have to.Quote:
I'd like to create a linux version but I'm a freshman in Linux programming. And currently I am the only one who is responsible to design the client. Maybe we could implement it after I found a good partner familiar with Linux.
I'm sorry I don't get you (my English is poor:sad5: ). What do you mean by "Would you do it if you did a Linux client? You wouldn't have to."?
Steinfal's question is, would you release the PI Segment source code to public if you created a linux client?
No, the source code will be only disclosed to some cooperative developers rather than public before the project is completed.
Also, it is not easy to develop a Linux version because the client used many system related techniques.
People just keep dragging more machines into Pi Segment! I just counted 287 machines just in the top 100 users. Lord only knows how many cores that represents.
All that I run are duel cores. I don't even have a single core machine.:icon_rolleyes:
5 of my 11 are duals and 5 of the singles are 939 boards that I'll install duellies in in the next couple of months.
Just,
It might be nice if you added pages to the standings pages sometime so that all contributers could see their scores as well as the top 100. I hope that you will need many extra pages.

I wanted to experiment with this last bunch I built so I have an assortment. Asus, Abit, Epox, and DFI. I find that I like the DFI the best.
Yes, you're right. I'll do that.Quote:
