I just setup my server with linux, redhat 7.2. I'm using it as a router, i have a post about that (i need some help), so check that out as well... Help! 🙂 This too! 🙂. I want to install seti on there... but I don't know where to start, i am supa-newbie, i am not even sure how to unzip tar.gz files yet 😉 (as you probably saw on one of those links) If someone could run me through it, that would be great 😉 TIA 😀

EDIT: First and second link are different problems now 😉
 
I don't know anything about Linux, but there's a lot of geat members here who will help you!🙂

Welcome to the TeAm, man! 😀

Jus a Bump to get you to the top!
 
I'll walk you through the process of setting up SETI on Linux. I'll help you with the other stuff later. 🙂

SETI Linux client for Pentium I/II, Celeron I, K5, K6-2/3
SETI Linux client for P-III/4 , Duron and Athlon

I'll be assuming you saved it in your home directory. That is /home/(your account) or ~ for short. This will all be done at a command line, so if you're in X, open a terminal.

Also, if you see something (like this), that's a key you must press.

1. tar xvf setiathome(tab)(enter)
2. cd setiathome(tab)(enter)
3. ./setiathome(enter)

BTW, if you use a setiqueue, you should add the -proxy switch to the command in step 3, like you do for the windows cli client.
 


<< Wow, they have bandwidth problems and they don't even compress their client distributions? >>

heh. I really haven't the slightest idea why they don't compress. Maybe someone should e-mail them. 🙂
 
I only have a pentium mmx... an i586... isn't that intel link for i686's?

SETI Linux client for Intel
SETI Linux client for AMD

I think the Pentium MMX counts as i686, but I could be wrong. i386 will run on anything, i686 only runs on some CPUs. If in doubt, use i386.
 
X windows sure does slow me down... that was nasty, it was using almost 50% of my cpu just idling! :Q Back to the command line for me... 😉
 
Congrats! And yeah, running xsetiathome will kill ya! I remember back in the day with the 1.x clients when they only had a *nix text client. Funny that as soon as they came out with xsetiathome, I grabbed it just to have some SETI graphics in X! LOL! 😛

BTW, I used to run SETI on my P200MMX (which Red Hat calls an i586) and had to use the i386 client. I think the i686s are for PII and higher. 🙂

i386 is for Pentium I/II, Celeron I, K5, K6-2/3,
i686 is for P-III/4 , Duron and Athlon


AMD/Intel clients ROFLMAO!
