16/10-23/10 Who Will Win The Rosetta Rosette ? Rosetta@home

[Alez]

TSBT now up to 78th on the last daily update for Rosetta@Home

Rosetta@Home position

Position	Team	Points
75	Boeing	61,066,207
76	BOINC UK	59,540,562
77	Prohardver	59,449,587
78	The Scottish Boinc Team	58,472,766
79	University of Wisconsin - Madison	57,710,064

Basically another day at this rate after the competition is finished and we are in the unfortunate position of passing BOINC UK and that would be such a shame ....

A brilliant effort from all and for those that went beyond and above for the team I thank you.

[Megacruncher]

Awesome progress in 2 weeks.
Getting the top 6 individual places was very close.- Much respect is due to tguskill of TSC! Russia who finished in 7th place & who played it straight without bunkering or assistance and who must be wondering what hit him.
As for BOINC UK, the problem is that if you catch them you then need to keep up with them.
Personally, my work is done here (for the rest of the year at least) and in the main my cores will be working on rebooting our WCG revival!

I'll second that, a true team effort. Well done guys.

12 more hours and we crush them, after that keeping up with them shouldn't be a problem. I'll join you on WCG after we have gained another place in the UK rankings.
After that I think we should be able to make 150 for WCG by the end of the year at least.

I continue to be amazed by what you guys not only understand about these various projects, but the "armadas" you have put together to tackle these challenges. Many thanks to Alez, Bryan, and everyone else that helped with the push on this project. Didn't think I'd be seeing a million credits on Rosetta@home for a few years, much less a few days.

The GUSBOX (Linux) suddenly decided to lose wireless networking sometime over the weekend. Finding myself very frustrated with this Lubuntu installation (with Teamviewer and Wireless). May be looking at getting a cheap CD key for Windows 7 or 10 - worst case, I could do a dual boot.

But I'll be switching THOR (Windows) over to WCG after these last few Rosetta WUs finish.

Thanks again for all your support!

[Alez]

Thanks for your effort Lee, and strange about Lubuntu as all my systems on it are more stable than my win7 systems. If you go win then win 7 keys are far cheaper and a better system. What's the issues you are having with lubuntu ? Maybe we can help out.

Right now, my two biggest problems are no wireless and no keyboard - both of which were working previously. When the system boots up, it reports some error. I don't know exactly what it's related to as there is no description.

[Alez]

Is it a driver issue or a usb issue ? Do you have a mouse plugged in ? Try switching mouse and keyboard etc. Post what the error message is on boot up.

[leecarver]

I think it is a driver issue. I have an old wireless Logitech combo plugged in. To see if there was interference, I unplugged the mouse and plugged a corded Microsoft mouse in. The mouse works just fine.

I also plugged my wireless adapter into a laptop and it was recognized just fine. So I think all of a sudden there's been some interference with the drivers (but I'm not sure why).

I'll try and get the error message sent to you in a PM this weekend.

OK, does look like for some reason your I/O drivers are corrupt. Let me know what you have and we'll see what's the best way forward.
