Re: Unable to run NVIDIA GPU with driver 535 [Solved]

Using an override (i.e. `systemctl edit fah-client.service`) to set NoNewPrivileges to "no" also results in the GPU working, as expected. Now, going by the systemd.exec man page this would mean that something in the code is utilising `execve()` on a setuid or setgid binary. Is there any c...

Re: Linux Ubuntu/Mint/Pop OS Install Work folder to different hard drive

First, do not directly edit /usr/lib/systemd/system/fah-client.service. Editing this file directly is discouraged, as it will be overwritten during package updates. Use the command systemctl edit --full fah-client.service to create a custom service unit. If the EDITOR environment variable is not set...

Re: W7 computers not getting work assignments

I'm not sure if this is related to your issue, but since version 8.3.6, the code responsible for loading DLLs requires the KB2533623 update on Windows 7. https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2533623 Edit It has been superseded by KB3063858: https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3063858 http://technet.microso...

Re: advanced options with 8.3, can't download any cores

I'm occasionally experiencing some name resolution failures here too. It disappears for a while, sometimes comes back, but always ends up working after a few tries. If you can consistently reproduce the issue, it would be helpful to install the debug version, add the following to the configuration f...

Unraid NAS is not based on CentOS 7. These "centos-7.9.2009-64bit" are from downloaded cores.

Re: More work units that will exceed expiry time

I have seen this too here. WUs expiring the deadline with my i7-4770:

Project: 12420 (Run 176, Clone 7, Gen 0) -- with 2 CPUs
Project: 12423 (Run 18, Clone 1, Gen 51) -- with 3 CPUs

Re: lufah - Little Utility for FAH v8

It would be helpful to have 'timeout' and 'deadline' information in the output of the 'units' command. Or only 'deadline', to know when the WU will be automatically dumped if not completed in time.

Re: lufah - Little Utility for FAH v8

Thanks, using "/" works. It would be nice a hint about this in "lufah . config -h" output.

Re: How to get v8.3 to only fold on the GPU

What you described is all expected, but: It created a zero length config.xml file (didn't copy anything from the previous version - maybe it was locked because it might have still been open). But worse was it deleted the V7 config.xml file even though it was in a different directory. Just as well I ...

CPUSchedulingPolicy=idle is probably too much (and I am not sure it is actually applied to child processes). This approach is better IMHO:

cbang packaging machinery is working fine on Fedora/RHEL and openSUSE. Give https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?p=363756#p363756 a try (you can git checkout the release tags before building).
