I'm all in with Folding at the moment, with everything that makes any sense to throw at it, CPUs and GPUs alike.

Sorry Crash, I had forgotten about this over here. I'm old and set in my ways, not that I have any skills or information to share :lol: habit sends me to the SSC. Is there a way to get e-mail notification from this site? Not just this thread? No worries, Howdy, thanks for stopping by! I wasn't real...

Any suggestions on how we can bring more of the team here to do all DC related communications? You could ask them nicely in the group PM on AT. Part of the reason we started this is because the PM is not searchable, info that gets presented in there gets lost. Also let them know I am bored over her...

No, but that's okay. I made the decision and should stick by it. There are at least several of the mods who are not sad to see me gone. Thanks for asking though!

tell him to create a crashtech2 account, and then post in moderator discussions.

Thanks, biodoc. I probably won't do that, though.

I recently asked for my account at Anandtech to be reactivated, since I am not entirely content with my self-imposed exile here. That was several days ago, and it appears that my request has either been denied without comment or is simply being ignored. I guess that's fine, I'll keep hanging out her...

I didn't, thanks for the heads up!

I'm going back to SETI. I don't think the TeAm needs my help beating Tom's, and F@H is getting plenty of compute power, maybe more than they need. F@H definitely has more contributor power than they can properly use right now. But so does SETI@home, where half the world is fighting for the last tas...

Hey, I was lurking over at AT and found out about the race, will there be any individual stats, or team stats only?

I unchecked the update, no need to experiment right now!

mintUpdate would like to install the new Nvidia drivers onto my systems, but I haven't heard much about them. Anyone have news?

Thanks guys, I'll give it a go later on today. Seems to me that enabling Secure Boot is what let it start working again, if Linux was installed with that feature enabled, I'm not yet sure how to disable it and still allow the SSD to boot.

Hmm, I am seeing something unexpected on my own machines now: kvm and kvmintel are present in the kernel simultaneously while vboxdrv, vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt,vboxpci are present too. So I was mistaken about the exclusivity of kvm vs. vbox. Check the "secure computing" thing in the BIOS whe...

Is it worth checking secure boot in the bios too? I've read that should be disabled. Something happened to this machine after the partial motherboard failure, and it would no longer boot from the SSD like it always had. So I started throwing switches in the BIOS until something changed. I thought t...

Maybe another hypervisor is already loaded, e.g. kvm. Show us the output of lsmod. There can be only one hypervisor running. If you see something obvious, try to unload it with "sudo modprobe -r ......". Or maybe "secure computing" or however it is called is enabled in the BIOS,...

I don't remember how I installed virtualbox on Mint and OpenSuse. The vbox driver(s) should probably already be loaded into the kernel at the time when boinc-client is started. How about... $ sudo modprobe vboxdrv $ lsmod | grep vbox $ sudo service boinc-client restart Cut off at the knees: "m...

One more diagnostic checking vbox modules:
mark@linux-x32:~$ lsmod | grep vbox
vboxpci 24576 0
vboxnetadp 28672 0
vboxnetflt 28672 0
vboxdrv 487424 3 vboxpci,vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt

Hmm, "lsmod | grep vbox" returns nothing at all!

boinc should be a member of vboxusers. mark@linux-x32:~$ groups boinc boinc : boinc video render vboxusers Also in the client_state.xml file I have this line near the top of the file. <p_vm_extensions_disabled> 0 </p_vm_extensions_disabled> If the value is 1 , then try shutting down boinc and then ...

How did you install virtualbox? I just went through this on ubuntu 19.1. Installing virtualbox (sudo apt install virtualbox) didn't work for me. Installing the "metapackage for virtualbox-savvy projects" did work. sudo apt install boinc-virtualbox Reboot was required. Thanks, biodoc. I us...

I'm having some trouble with one of my Xeon boxes. Seems that neither Cosmo nor LHC can detect CPU virtualization: http://www.cosmologyathome.org/show_host_detail.php?hostid=414605 https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/show_host_detail.php?hostid=10636521 And BOINC says that VirtualBox is not installe...

Sorry about your string of bad luck crashtech. Thanks, biodoc. Part of the problem is that I buy a lot of used stuff, so failure is not unexpected. But the 2060 Super in particular was a pretty disappointing one, $350 for 4 months of use. I don't think I am going to buy GPUs that new and expensive ...

So the 2060 Super is pretty much done now. It worked for while as a secondary GPU but started making the machine unresponsive on an ever more frequent basis. Also, during a failed attempt to get an ebay P102-100 to work, one of my Asus Z10PCD8 dual-socket Xeon boards stopped working. Luckily (sort o...

I have doubts that SETI has enough work to withstand a Sprint, but the sentiment is definitely understood. If we run it, I probably won't try to bunker more than a couple instances without modding the coproc file.

I feel woefully under-qualified to vote on this! Will give it some thought.

Does anyone know what happened to Stefan? Lots of work basically, therefore I took a bit of time off of the DC hobby. Resuming it now. : - ) I see the TeAm did well in this Folding sprint. I haven't been reading the TeAm forums (and none of the other DC sites), otherwise I would have joined of cour...

Thanks for providing this forum to us and staying on top of problems!
