I'll help in primegrid! :P

So, gamer... where have you been lately? :P

[gamer007]

I know, sorry.

Been trying to convert some movies into DVD. But converter makes into 2 dvds when quality is too high. So I've been reconverting the files w/ lesser quality.

EDIT: Don't worry, I'm not gone from crunching. I'll be back in few days time.

Hurry up gamer... AMDave and vaughan are distracted, it's two easy ranks up ;)

*Starts up BOINC and prays Dave and Vaug doesn't run PG for a few hours* :P

gamer - what do you mean movie into DVD.
PM me.

I'm putting my X2 back on Rosetta at least for a little bit. I like the little WUs they have now plus I gotta give daddygeek a push.

EDIT: 2 days and I'll have you. :P

version 4.77 of the Rosetta@home application is available for Windows and Linux as of September 22, and version 4.76 is available for Mac OSX as of September 24. 4.77 is optimized for Windows and is much faster than the older versions.

Anyone know how much faster? If it's faster, I may reattach to this project.

I tried it in Windows first and have been immensely dissapointed with the results.

I ran it in Linux yesterday and more than quadrupled my output per hour.

Unfortunately the amount of credit awarded is still massively pathetic.

I turned it off again.
I have better (more rewarding) things to do.

I'm having the reverse effect

This is on the same machine I just changed the OS. And I need to go back to Linux on that machine within a week maybe two.

AMDave: what did you do to make it work so well in Linux? :?:
