Ok you guys got me

I'm running the Cow too!

:P

@magnetic

don't forget that you need to (at least once), while the dnetc is running to go to the Client menu, and select Update. So your user info gets sent to the dnet server.

Thanks Targhan
I did that.
But when I try to login on the stats page is says "no record" or so..

moooo!

Yah, it'll be that way until 5:00pm NewYork time or so (when they update).

I was actually hoping for better results today

While we're on the subject...;)

Does anyone know of a HD "sleep" program for MorphOS? Then I would
just leave my machine on crunching during weeknights/weekends.

This week, i have tested too the update of my RC5-72 packets (generally buff-out.r72) via email to flush@distributed.net with the buff-out.r72 file attached (MIME64 encoded file)... After that DELETE the buff-out.r72 file in your local Dnet directory !

This morning for example, i've obtained this email receipt :
---
Subject: Distributed.Net Block Flusher Results

Flush completed with output. The results are shown at the bottom of this message.

RESULTS FOLLOW:

dnetc v2.9001-478-CTR-02112023 for FreeBSD (FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE).

[Feb 22 09:29:41 UTC] The keyserver says: "Moo from Austin Texas"
[Feb 22 09:29:41 UTC] Retrieved project state data from server. (cached)
[Feb 22 09:29:51 UTC] RC5-72: Sent 118 packets (118.00 stats units) to server.

EOF.

Very useful for people with complex proxy/firewall problems or without net access on a computer... I am investigating if submitted packets are affected to MorphOs or FreeBsd (probably Mos as packets computed on Pegasos and submitted after "sneakernet" or Samba, ... via connected Linux or Zin clients).

Send blank email to fetch@distributed.net or flush@distributed.net for more explanations.

AMIGAlly,

wow... already 38 ppl... that's not bad IMHO.

I didnt know we had to run "update" manually. oops..havent done that yet.

you don't need to do that... when the client does not have any work left (with default settings after he has all 24 packets done) he'll update automatically

Ok, I have switched from OGR to RC5-72 crunching now so here are my (OnyxSoft's) stats:

OnyxSoft RC5-72 stats

Great!

MOOO

With Altivec we will be crunching 4 times faster

:P

Faster, yes. Four times faster? C'mon, it can't be _THAT_ much faster?

I hope it will be THAT much faster! :)

Amiga68k is almost behind us :)

We are going like grazy, but we will never
get to NO.1 with this amount of users,
or altivec must be damn fast.
I noticed Mac-PPC isn't mentioned.

I have just installed the client and left it crunching through the night. At the morning, I manualy updated and now I would like to know, where to read my stats, or should I somehow join somewhere?

Thanks in advance!

With the non altivec core at 3.8MKeys/s and the Altivec core at around 10.6MKeys/s, it won't be 4 times faster.
It's factor 2.8 according to that figures.

@MarK
what email adress do you use for the dnetc?
i cant find you under mark@tbs-software.com

I use this address and I can't find myself also I followed instructions on the online manual here on MorphZone, and it seams to be really precise, but I'm not there... Maybe that's because I made only 19 packets so far?

Bye, MarK.

@MarK

If you updated this morning, your submitted blocks will not be visible in the stats yet.

Quote:

The stats are updated once a day, after the next update your results should show up.

Yeah, that's the information I wanted to know Thanx!

@felix:

> I noticed Mac-PPC isn't mentioned.

It's listed as: PowerPC/Rhapsody

Rhapsody is the old (and obviously still used) codename for MacOS X. But yes, old MacOS (7.x, 8.x, 9.x) is not listed, there is no rc5-75 client available for this OS.

So when will we crunch with altivec supported ?
Is it already possible with linuxppc ?

Why don't you simply try the linux client to see what happens.

It doesn't recognize the 750 here and runs some benchmarks to choose the right core everytime after starting up.

Well i can't install debien on my peg2,
doesn't realy work, so i can't realy
test it ..

@ Felix,


Hm, I may be wrong, but in my understanding if you use linuxppc on the Pegasos you would not contribute your keys to PowerPC/MorphOS anymore but to PowerPC/Linux.


Bye HAK

Didn't i mention i can't (yet) run Linuxppc.
And i asked it because MOS RC5 doesn't
support altivec yet, and i wanted to know
if linux did support it. Thats all.
(And i want to know the speed :)

Thats all.
