2011 Chimp Challenge has started!!!

NO monitoring software currently works with Client V7.
 
For the SMP client, is there something in the log I should look for to make sure that the Passkey was accepted without issue?
 
6 off 9 after the first update. The Canucks leads.
 
None of our -bigadv has landed yet. I will dump 185 k in 8 hours.

Be patient my young padawan:p

It would be suspicious if all of our -bigadv's landed the day the challenge started;)
 
I hope everyone switched over, I know I did. Looks like we are doing pretty bad, can't wait for the bonuses to hit.
 
110 GPU/CPU untill now. After second update we are down to 8th place....
 
Wow, SMP is pretty weak on my hardware. 18 hours to get 310 points out of my E2140? I downloaded the current WU almost 4 hours ago, and fahmon says the ETA is in about 14 hours, and the credit is only 310 points... it says about 1400PPD though, so maybe there's bonus points for turning it in before the deadline?

Looks like 7th at the moment, tied with another team. My guess would be some have still not switched over.
 
Is the passkey necessary ?

You do need the passkey for the cpu client. When setting up the smp client, it will ask for a passkey. You put it in there.

Can you PM the key? - I´ll squeeze everything out of this rig for the Chimp Challenge....

The SMP WU's have gotten harder. From Stanford:

The system must have a recent dual core processor or better to run this client with the -smp switch in SMP mode. Four cores or more are strongly recommended. This means older single core processors cannot run this client with the -smp switch, and older dual cores will not meet the very short work unit deadlines. If after running this client with the -smp switch on an older dual or an older quad core system, and the client does not meet the work unit preferred deadline, please remove the SMP client and replace it with one or more instances of the CPU client and/or GPU client.
 
Hell Yeah!! But we have to gather more people...

I'm sending PM to other members. Should be able to scrape up another 150K ppd for the Chimp.
 
I really want to make sure I have the passkey right for the bonus, so does anyone know if there is a log entry that I can look for that will tell me the passkey was accepted?

Since I am using v7 there is no way to check it with HFM or FahMon like normal.
 
Hey buck, garyinhere said you can have his Xeon for the CC, he may need help setting it up though.
 
ya if you want to do the team viewer thing you can use it
