Seti@home questions

darin3200 · 04-20-2003, 09:14 PM

I just have some simple seti@home questions. Are there any special things I have to do to Seti before I shut off my computer? Also how can I see the progress?
Thanks

You don't have to do anything normally, when you shutdown it will restart the next time you boot.
As for the progress, I have no idea

I use ksetisaver, it's a kde screensaver that starts and stops the client.

Thanks for the quick responses!

I was at seti's website I made sure to join the linuxquestions.org group. I'll probably let it run all night once I get my system heating problem worked out. Is 107 degree system temp and 118 cpu that bad?

>> Is 107 degree system temp and 118 cpu that bad?

nothing to worry about, my cpu averages about 125

It should be fun to see my cpu temp after I leave seti running for about 5 hours. Greklem is saying I'm at about 99% cpu usage. Well, if I somehow blow my cpu it would give me a good excuse to upgrade to a really fast athlon.

Well, make sure to at least make it last a few more months so you can upgrade to an Athlon 64. Imagine how much faster it would run with the latest X86-64 version of your favorite linux distro than it does right now!

I'm trying to install the seti@home screensaver but I get some errors

Sorry it's a little long but I don't know what to include

You need to install fam.

darin3200 · 04-21-2003, 05:05 PM

This fam?

Aussie · 04-21-2003, 05:42 PM

Yes, look for an rpm here.
