I'm in the area... but I'm too young, heh, don't have license yet, testing for my PDL-90 tomorrow...
Maybe in a few years :-\
*edit* w00t for breaking into the top 500!
Thanks smoky and vxspiritxv, I'll go look for screen right now. I'm not really worried about security though, that computer does nothing but fold (for the next two months, at least).
I usually start with "Ever heard of Folding@Home?" and when they say no (which is all i've ever been told), i start talking about how STANFORD UNIVERSITY (I make emphasis on it being Stanford cause being in high school everyone's like "omg it's Stanford!!!11!") is running the program, and...
I should start using forceasm, cause I've outright terminated F@H a lot...
The problem's not folding under another user, it's just folding while logged out :P and I needed an easy way to monitor the progress without having to stay logged in to one account, or run EMIII constantly. I'll...
Ok, I'm another linux nubbie, so go easy on me here. I'm running Fedora Core 2, and I am using this command to run F@H (or i think I am at least) while i'm logged out:
"nohup /root/evolution/[email protected] &" without the quotation marks of course.
Now for reasons I am unable to...
personally I'm RAM-low on most of my computers, so I just use EMIII to check on the status regularly... I notice something's wrong when the %s haven't changed after a few hours, the trick is remembering... have paper here for that...
You can close most processes down... I'm running XP Home and have 16 processes (not including when i turn on task manager or EMIII). Haven't figured out how to turn off wscntfy.exe yet (that damn red shield that never shuts the hell up), but i'm looking around.
*fake edit*
That's odd...
It's a little late, but i'm going to try to get some b0rgs at the school (the good b0rgs anyways). I'm sure he could let me install it on a few labs (we have some 500 computers in the school) in the school...
it's been way too long since i've visited these forums... great job on reclaiming #1 guys, even though my 4 computers stopped producing. They're up and running again though, so no worries :D

would you seriously risk the chance that it will? By not folding, you're ridding yourself of all hope that you can be of help. I'd rather try and not get the results i want, than not try and watch good results come back.
And how do you know it won't benefit any of us? Some of us could...
i've gone 3 days without a workpacket apparently, stupid vacation :mad: it can't connect to the server at all to get a workpacket, or send it's one. my other computers are doing fine, it's just this computer.
is there a way to force my computer to ask for a work packet from a different...
...you give your family multiple hour lectures on the benefits of folding and why they should shut up and leave the process alone...
...you start crying when you realize a complete computer has been sitting collecting dust for over a year...
...your homepage is your stats page...
:eek: you got yourself some competition relic!
but wow... i think they could outclass almost the entirety of the folding project...? isn't there only like 150,000 processors as is? let alone a supercomputer DEDICATED!?!?! omgwtfbbq!
they'd own the aussies in like 3 days. then again...
welcome all ye. I don't think i'm considered a "[H]ard" [H]ardfolder until i break into the top 100, but i'm working on it...
any questions, yell. someone will answer.
eh, just wait until a lucky time when you're sitting at your computer and it's almost finished, once it's done reformat quick, the faster you are the less production time you lose ;)
:( it's sad to see you go. That much longer we wait for cures. That many more people we have to convince.
If i get to b0rg my school(s), don't worry too much though ;) (around 600 computers in all 3 :p)
