Just had to do a big power cycle/reboot, and coming up I got some notices that there is a new GR client. Version 6 or so. But, I can't find it anywhere. And the Windows Desktop client does not seem to have a check for updates anywhere.
So, is there a new update? If so, can we safely update or overinstall, or do I have to make the client computer rejoin the whole effort?
Seems like the method is to Uninstall BOINC, then manually reinstall, then install the new patch? from http://boinc.berkeley.edu. I'll have to get to it tomorrow. But just looking now I don't see the update shell script on the BOINC site.
Just installed the package from the Package Manager on Ubu 10.4. boinc --version says it is 6.10.17, versus 6.4.5 on my Ubu 9.04 box.
Sounds like BOINC Mgr has the problem. Cause the URLs are correct, but why the Mgr gives a bad checksum seems strange.
Like I said, I was able to attach to Rosetta manually, but the the computations kept restarting so I detached. I've manually attached to ClimatePrediction for a while, to see if that compute space is good with the 32-bit libs.
Building a new box with Ubuntu 10.4 I'm putting BOINC on it to test stability a little, and when idle. Connecting up, it gets bad URLs from my projects.
