Heaven help you if your founder decides to change the name of your team and you all suddenly belong to a team you never registered with.

Let's recap shall we, for those who may not know what this popular thread is about.

At the beginning of this year 2009 I provided a site to host the optimized applications produced by Gipsel/Cluster Physik and team Planet 3DNow! This was called zslip.com. which I announced last summer with two months notice that it was to expire, which it did in November 2009. I'm sorry even my funds are finite and I always said I bought this .com for an invention that never took off but made it available to Milkyway until it expired.

I made sure I had permission from Gipsel/Cluster Physik to host these apps, and in fact asked him to give me permission for each update out of courtesy to his work and the team at Planet 3DNow! who carried out the pre-publication testing.

I was also careful not to intimate in any way that the apps were my own work - I was merely hosting them. It said so on zslip.com

When zslip.com expired I temporarilly found a place for the apps on another of my sites, brilliatsite.com. For whatever reason I now don't wish to host any BOINC stuff on brilliantsite.com, and am in the process of moving BOINC off that domain.

I hope to use another one of my sites, 3rd.in

I really do not have any idea what that password is, but don't expect anyone will need it since I will simply remove the security once 3rd.in/milkyway is up and running.

Thanks for the update.

At the end of the day it is your site and your time and effort put in to host the optimised apps and it is your perogative to do what you like with those sites.

I suppose once MW updates the server side the optimised apps hosting will not be required.

No, it's not just my time and effort. It is the effort of those that produced the apps, who tested them for the author who did not have an ATI card, who tested them as fit and acceptable to Travis, and who got documented agreement from Travis that these op apps would not be rejected after people started to buy the ATI cards, and for me who helped to make the op apps readily available to you all, and made the updates easy to find and for you to apply as and when they came out.

Don't forget that too easily when you say all of that is not required.

A thank you to Cluster Physik and his team who helped test the CPU and ATI GPU apps has been moved here;

Thanks "Furyan" I really need those old app in some cards, thanks again!

You're welcome, and thanks for letting me know that you can get to the site OK.

Cannot get linux x86_64 SSE3 to work on ubuntu 9.1 (or 8.04) with opteron 270's type cpu (PNI==SSE3)

I have a pair of older server motherboards with 285 and 270 opteron chips and I thought I would try the linux_0.18d2_64_sse3.tar.gz listed for "Intel and AMD". I have other optimized linux apps working on the same system, but cannot get that milkyway app to run.

The error on 9.1 ubuntu is here
<stderr_txt>
sched_setscheduler: Operation not permitted
execv: No such file or directory
</stderr_txt>

the error message from 8.04 is the same as above except is missing that sched_setscheduler line

All I did was unpack the tar and move the 3 files into that \var\lib project directory. It appears the executable cannot be found because if I delete the file I get the same error message. There must be more to the installation than I did.

here is the contents of the project directory

There is an older AMD only SSE3 on the 3rd.in site. Maybe I should be using that?

EDIT - SORRY MY BAD - COCKPIT ERROR. I CHANGED ROOT:ROOT TO BOINC:BOINC AND GOT IT TO WORK

Don't forget that the 3rd.in site not only helps you to navigate through your optimized apps needs here at MilkyWay, but also has links to optimized apps resources at others sites, as well as links to help you navigate around BOINC more generally.

Please try it out, it's free for all to use.

COOL ILL TRY IT. NOW IF I CAN JUST GET MY HANDS ON A GOOOD CUDA CARD..I DESIGN AND FABRICATE GRANITE COUNTER TOPS..ANY TRADIN LOL

There is a new set of ATI apps fixing the small bug with the progress bar. It was only cosmetical and nothing else material changed. Read the included readme.txt!

I would guess the project uses this fixed version as stock app in a few days. If the broken progress bar doesn't disturb you too much, there is no need to update.

Works a treat!

My site it updated.

And here are the CPU apps v0.21 with the fixed progress bar. I also added some information about the WU size (integration volume, number of streams and number of stars) to the task details.

They should be the exact same speed as the 0.20 versions, but I haven't benched them with long WUs (only small ones).

My site it updated.
http://www.arkayn.us/milkyway/index.html

Now have both the updated ATI and CPU apps now.

---

The main link for this thread - zslip.com - has been changed to a commercial site offering a medical remedy, its also too big to use anyway as its now slowing typing to a crawl. It should be deleted.

Possibly start a new thread with the pointer at Arkayn's site ?

Zy

Blurf did, it is a little farther down in the stickied threads.
