It is better, but I want something simple to install. It may be simple for you, it is not for me. A computer is a tool for me rather than a game. So far I am not impressed with CPDN, but I will give it a full two weeks before quitting.

I do not understand why graphics worked before but not now. I had some problems with pre-boinc CPN and signed off and am giving BOINC CPN another chance. I did finally get trickles, but no indication yet of work in my signature or BOINC. I will give it at least a two week trial. My concern is this is a lot of computer time to be losing if things don't work right.

13) Message boards : Cafe CPDN : Classic SETI starts to wind down. (Message 13746)

I think it is great that classic SETI id no longer accepting new accounts! IMHO there is no reason to join classic SETI at this late date. I am not in a desperate hurry and don\'t mind giving some people more time to rev up their credits, but the sooner SETI can devote all its resources to BOINC the better.

14) Message boards : Number crunching : problem with boinc 4.45 or climate prediction? (Message 13634)

During pre-boinc climate prediction I finally quit after two weeks with no trickle and no answer about what the problem was. (I don\'t mind risking 10 or even 100 hours, but not three months. It also made me nervous the talk of searching for files in the hard drive to manually upload.) I am now giving boinc climate another chance. After a few hours the first boinc climate crashed. I downloaded another boinc climate. BOINC now won\'t download any other projects and I am only running climate. Would it help to go to 4.19? Wait for a new boinc version? Wait for a fix from climate? I do not mind if I am not updated every day with a trickle on this project, but I should have something within a week or so. If I can\'t resolve this within 2 weeks or so I will give up all together on climate. Months of computing time is just too valuable to risk.

Two days and more than 400 users. Orbit@home is becoming now a real community, with people interested in Distributed Computing, Astronomy and Asterodis. Now that all the server problems seem to be fixed, we will enhance the website in gereral, adding a description of this project and also introducing the users to the Science related to Minor Planets in the Solar System. Everybody is invited to contribute, sending or posting to the forum possible orbit@home logos, graphics, related websites and everything can help building the orbit@home image and identity.

After less than one day, more than 100 user accounts created! Also still having problems with slashes in urls, we are working on that. As a reminder, we don\'t have any BOINC application yet, and the scheduler is not running, so the BOINC client will bounce off the orbit@home website without much work to do for now. Update: now the scheduler is running, the BOINC client should be able to connect, ask for work, and then disconnect because there is no work available. The client can also complain for \"platform \'x-y-z\' not found\": this is because there is not an application available yet.

orbit@home website (re)-started! After a first test website yesterday, we decided to go directly with the BOINC website. This allows a uniform users management, and makes many other tasks a lot easier. User accounts can be created now, and we will disable it as soon as we will reach a user base of at least one thousand users, sufficient for the alpha testing phase. At this moment, the application is not yet ready for alpha testing. We will announce here the development news and the beginning of the testing phase.
