Once mo how can I activate (boinc-) SETI graphics ?
I repeat a question I stated at the end of my last posting in another
thread: How can I activate the SETI@home graphics ? I'd like to see them from time to time (with classic, this was always the case at upload-download time) but don't want to use always BOINC / SETI as my screensaver ... is there a possibility to see the graphics without that i.e. with no screensaver or another one in effect? (There seems to be a button for this purpose in one of the B. manager tabs, but it is inactive in my case, I wonder why !) |

BOINC manager work tab right side of page, high light seti. then click on show graphics. |

(...) BOINC manager work tab right side of page, high light seti. then click on show graphics. Of course one must choose the *active* seti WU - as I guessed ... Fine these moving (rotating) "3D" graphics ! Now does someone know when the credit for past classic seti will be (converted into the BOINC version and ?) added ? Just these days the view pending credits link in my seti account of the seti website replies with "turned off temporarily" and what the graphics window of the BOINC manager shows seems to be only the total of the credits for individual work units as shown by the page I get when I click on the view results link in my seti account + a value that may be the credit for just 1 (BOINC) seti WU: this might be the oldest one my PC has worked on if no more than 5 credited WUs are shown by the said page (there must be a limit in it to prevent it to become a huge thing !) or it might represent the credit for one of the two WUs which the BOINC manager in my German language still mentions as "hochgeladen, meldebereit" (may-be translatable as "uploaded, ready to give the message") - BTW I don't understand why WUs show so long this state in the manager (again probably a problem with BOINC users that don't have a DSL / cable internet connection). Is it possible that the pending credits page is off now because 'they' are just making the adding of seti classic credits ? |

You must have a Boinc account created from your s@h-classic credentials for this to be shown. The s@h-classic credits are NOT going to be converted to cobblestones and added to the Boinc credits. This has been extensively discussed over the last two years and there is no sensible way to do the conversion. The pending credit feature on s@h has been turned off due to the master database being badly overloaded. Whenever Berkeley can or might get a replica database server running again, then they might be able to enable that feature oncemore. Happy crunchin', Martin -- ---------- OS? What's that?!

[...] Thanks. Now I have seen these things - were they not yet there when I looked at my account a week ago or did I just not look well ?

[...] I understand The pending credit feature on s@h has been turned off due to the master database being badly overloaded. [...] Thanks. BTW I was at last able to attach another BOINC which I have chosen: climate prediction ! But this seems to have created new problem(s), may-be because of the huge amount of data involved - how many days will it take just to download them completely ? work time predicted means some months on one 'work unit' only ... May-be I'll start a new thread if the disturbance in SETI itself (connection & download / upload) will remain for a long time. This NG being specifically for SETI I imagine that to discuss climate prediction I'll have to enter a forum of that. |
