Post: BOINC is written to only allow editing for I believe 1 hour after posted. It's a "feature" supposedly. I think you are right, but how can you annotate a thread as [Solved], if you only have a one hour window? Also, where are the SMILES? Edit: Welcome to the World of Asteroids, Big Bear. Oops, you been here longer than me. |

Post: You will find it in your BOINC manager. You propably looked to project setting on web but if you set something in you BOINC manager it has higher priority than the project settings. So you propably have something there alreday set otherwise the project setting would work according to you wish. The only thing I can find with respect to the Boinc Manager is the BOINC - Preferences > exclusive application tab. Suspend processor and network usage when these applications are running: The window is empty. I have never entered anything into this option in any of my computers/Projects. If this is not what you are referring to, please be more specific as to where I should look to find this option within the Boinc Manager. Thanks. |

Post: It shouldn't do it. There are regularly checkpoints like other projects have. Which computer has the problem? My laptop. Dell inspiron 1721 O/S: LinuxMint Release 14 (nadia) 32-bit DE: Cinnamon Boinc Manager version 7.0.62 (x86) |

Post: The message you quoted is to do with non-BOINC CPU usage. Check you local client prefs. It's probably set to something like 50%. To turn it off set it to zero, then BOINC won't care what else is using the CPU. Where do I find this local client prefs? I found ... Suspend work when non-BOINC CPU usage is above 0 means no restriction Enforced by version 6.10.30+ Is that what you mean? |

Post: It is simpler to simply run one CPU project at a time on a given system. As I said. I assigned the laptop to run A@H tasks. That is one CPU project at a time. FYI - I have five computers running various crunching projects. |

Post: I don't know why this is happening, but I have a laptop running LinuxMint assigned to A@H. I have discovered that the tasks are set to a Very Low process priority. As a result, BOINC keeps seeing a Suspended: CPU usage > state stopping and starting the Task. When it was running WCG tasks on the laptop, this never happened. I can do a sudo renice -10 -p 1918, but that only effects that one process 1918 (that one task). I think there is a way to set the process name to a -10 setting so as a new task is started with a new pid number, the process name (which remains the same) will kick in and give the process a higher priority. My problem is I need some help. If I haven't made a mistake setting up my account, then what is the command to redefine the priority to the process name? ionice? If so, what is the command line? I tried ionice -c 2 -n 0 <process name>, but got a rejection because the <process name> was not a filename. Obviously, I am missing something in my reading of your Project. Thanks, Gandalf |

Post: How can I delete this computer entry? http://asteroidsathome.net/boinc/show_host_detail.php?hostid=21964 Just trying to keep the account neat and correct. The laptop kept shutting off with Vista, but runs smoothly with LinuxMint. I don't understand why this is, but will keep Linux as the operating system. Thanks Gandalf |

Post: Be welcomed and good luck in crunching! Perhaps you can help me. I have a laptop running LinuxMint assigned to A@H. I have discovered that the tasks are set to a Very Low process priority.

Post: When I have to reboot the computer working the A@H project, I lose the work accomplished to that point but not finished. I work WCG projects and Einstein@Home projects and neither of them have this problem. With them, after rebooting, the tasks take up where they left off. Am I doing something wrong, or is it a problem with A@H? Thanks for the assist, Gandalf |

Post: I thought I'd say hi to anyone reading this. I just signed my laptop up to do some crunching for your project. Gandalf |
