BOINC 5.8.8 released to public

[drezha]

Tried it and it was OK. Appears it's still Beta for Linux. Seems the linux/windows credit divide is smaller now There going in the right direction but I'll stick with F@H ATM.

Everything A-OK this end, crunching away on WCG and Nanohive

I dunno whether I should upgrade? I'm still liking my 5.5.0 Crunch3r's.
Maybe I'll upgrade my brother's BOINC.

are they going to have a 64bit version?

I finally got BOINCView to work with BOINC Client 5.8.8 ... The Problem was I had 2 set's of host names in my gui_rpc_auth file ... I've always run it this way with no problem but for some reason v5.8.8 couldn't figure out which name to use I guess.
So for the heck of it I deleted the 1 set that really wasn't the name of the host but more the description of it that Windows uses when installing the OS. Once I did that BOINCView picked right up on it and monitored it properly ... :D

Thanks for any suggestions to get it working ...
