I'm going to give it a little longer to see what happens. I'll post again later. I'm surprised that a problem has only just occurred because I have had it running 24/7 for 5 days now.

23) Message boards : Number crunching : Does it support freebsd? Yes. [solved] (Message 35568) Posted 26 Jan 2007 by alpha Post: 23 validated work units. So it is probably safe to say that this works fine. Anyone else gonna give it a go? Edit: it would be great if this thread could get stickied, or at least have the subject renamed to append "[SOLVED!]" or something.

Before anything would work, I had to do a quick: $ brandelf -t Linux /var/db/boinc/projects/boinc.bakerlab.org_rosetta/rosetta_5.43_i686-pc-linux-gnu Thereafter: [rosetta@home] Starting task 1r69__BOINC_NOFILTERS_ABRELAX_SAVE_ALL_OUT_NEWRELAXFLAGS_frags83__1505_4246_0 using rosetta version 543 [rosetta@home] Starting task 4ubpA_BOINC_ABRELAX_frags83__1507_1888_0 using rosetta version 543 On my P3 933 dually.

[solved] (Message 35436) Posted 24 Jan 2007 by alpha Post: Building an application for a different architecture isn't too difficult. However, verifying that it's still calculating the exact same result can be. Not a problem. This is exactly why the FreeBSD application for Einstein@Home is declared beta. Definitely not a reason why this can't happen. Faust: that looks quite promising. I hope to try it later! Who knows if results produced by a client running the Linux application emulated on FreeBSD will produce valid results? It could be more damaging than the bother of compiling a native FreeBSD version.
27) Message boards : Number crunching : Does it support freebsd? Yes. [solved] (Message 35281) Posted 22 Jan 2007 by alpha Post: Granted, I haven't tried getting the Linux application running on FreeBSD using Linux emulation, but I don't see why we can't have a native FreeBSD application for a project with such popularity as this. What would it take to get this to happen? A petition of 25 or 50 people? Any project that doesn't support FreeBSD is losing contributors! I'd much rather be running Rosetta than Einstein on my FreeBSD boxes, but Einstein is one of the few (3!) BOINC projects that support FreeBSD. A lot of the time, getting source code written for Linux to compile on FreeBSD is trivial.
