it looks like BOINC is going offical

Hmm, they've changed the link from my 1st activated account to the 2nd, so looks like they've scrapped to use seti_boinc...

Anyway, seti@home for BOINC is not officially announced, and they're still using the same v3.07-debug-build as in beta. The release-build should be v4...
 
Pretty good timing, only 900 WU to go till i hit 25k in seti "classic" then i'll sic the herd on Boinc 😉.
 
pardon my ignorance but does this just mean that the BOINC software itself is ready and the SETI II part of it is still beta? please fill a brotha in.
 
I got it all installed and it's running. Each of the work units really seem to go quickly (16 minutes or so). Is each one a WU?

most of my seti fleet will die when seti1 dies, at least until a good service install is setup for it.

If you looks closely on your BOINC-directory after install, you've got 2 executables, boinc_gui that is linked as shortcut, and BOINC_CLI. The latter is the command-line-version, and has built-in service-install. 😎
So after joining seti@home & setting up proxy if neccessary, just issue boinc_cli -install and you've ready to run. The 1st time you must manually start the service, or reboot. 😉

teriba, currently the 1st part of the wu is very fast, but soon it will slow down. Due to it's currently being debug-build, it's roughtly 75% slower... Of course, it's only the windows-version that have so much debug-code so...


Also remember, BOINC is currently not released, and the seti@home-site really is only announced to a limited number of testers. Unsure if one of these was loud-mouthed and announced it, or someone like me stumbled on the url...
 
I know myself & others will loose large parts of thier fleet when S@H2 kicks in because of the lack of any SETIQ replacement.

I cannot run my work rigs without a centralised point to send & collect WUs & be able to run it off my flash drive

Nice!🙂 ,pitty the link doesn't work though so I could actually see it!🙁
 
Today's post on the SETIBOINC front page:

NOTICE: this project is not officially active. Use at your own risk. We may delete results and reset credits at any time.

I noticed that we've got a TeAmmate that managed to get credits posted, so we made it into the top 20 teams 🙂
 
lol
as of this writing, it seems i am the team leader credit-wise 🙂

well, i guess i'll enjoy the beer, broads and (hot-tub) bubbles while they last.

zaph a.k.a Chris S
 
Well, Anandtech is off the 1st page. 😉

Currently account creation is disabled, unsure if transporting the old seti@home-account across also is disabled...
 
Until the kinks are worked out with BOINC and there is a cetralized (SETIQ) method, I'm switch all over to DPAD. I like the SETI project and TeAm, and the science, but I can only sneaker-net most at work.
 
so just to clarify, does this mean we're at the point where boinc is mainstream ? i.e. should i be changing over.............
 
I've heard a rumor that ET is interfering and messing things up. :Q

They don't want anyone else to be found ... want to be the only "one". 😛 😀

















Conspiracy Theory: ET has already been found! :shocked:
