dave_bbp boinc manager in linux w/gui? Yes of course, that's the beauty of BOINC. You only need ONE GUI machine (Windows or Linux) to control EVERY machine that you have running BOINC (Server, Headless PC, Linux etc.) with that manager. It's simple. Just write down the WAN IP of your "controller PC", connect to your server, sudo-edit /etc/boinc-client/remote_hosts.cfg and past your controller's IP in there. Then you start your BOINC manager on your PC, go into "advanced mode", then File-->select computer and you enter the IP of your server. DONE!

Hi all. One of the Slovak guys messaged me with an issue he is having that I couldn't help with. Perhaps someone can give mesome ideas to help?
Basically:
1. On a Windows server, same machine as Linux boxes he owns, all his cpu stats are 100% on Rosetta. Or in other words, all of his processing power is BOINC-ing. 2. On Linux server, with WCG exactly the same, all cpu stats are 100%. 3. On Linux server, with Rosetta, some cpu cores are 100%, others are much lower.
He is on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. So for some reason Rosetta on Linux is not downloading enough tasks for his machine?
He tried reinstalling and restarting server but no luck. Any suggestions?
Thanks
space will be problem

i had problem with rosetamini (roseta works), when i had not enough ram - at least 1gb per core, does not matter how much system shown as free. then some tasks stuck in sleep state. they had 0% cpu usage but were just blocking cores. start 'top' in linux and press shift+m to sort by ram usage and you will see if there are some

It isn't AVAILABLE to sign. That's what he's waiting on, and what he keeps following up on.

Does anyone have the link to the Linux QT wallet that they can post? I tried following the instructions in the wiki but it says it can't find the QT wallet.
Thanks!
Is there still a Ubuntu QT wallet available? Trying to set this up on a ubuntu rig.. thanks!

WCG Update :
(In a nutshell, we are still waiting for the DPA).
Robert,
You recently requested access to the World Community Grid data exports which, as mentioned previously, is dependent on you agreeing to our Data Processing Agreement (DPA). We wanted to update you on the status of the Agreement.
For months, we have been working with a team of lawyers to prepare World Community Grid for GDPR compliance and ensure adequate protection of our volunteers' data. It is no secret that many organizations have found it a challenge to adhere to this new, comprehensive and complex regulation, and frankly, we are no exception. It is also fair to admit that our lawyers have been far busier than normal helping various groups understand the implications of the regulation on their individual programs. We finally have a lawyer dedicated to finalizing the Agreement, but the review process is not yet complete.
Please know that we are doing everything we can to push this as aggressively as we can, and are using escalation channels to ensure this gets addressed as quickly as possible. We are fully aware of the impact of delaying access to the data exports has on you and sincerely appreciate your patience as we get this resolved.
Thank you for your support, during what has been (and continues to be) a challenging compliance process for us and many others.
World Community Grid Support Team --------------------------------------------------------- World Community Grid
__________________
Hello again Robert,
We are working on getting a finalized DPA as quickly as we can.
Existing volunteers will be automatically opted in to having their data be public, but new volunteers will have to specifically opt in to making their data public (as they'll be opted out by default). And yes, the data exports will automatically exclude data of volunteers whose data can't be shared (either because they opted out, have chosen to delete their account, or we have deleted their account in accordance with our data retention policy).
Also - please note: Once a member has signed the DPA, they will be obligated to manually remove a member's stats who has requested their data be deleted. We will be providing a list of the members who have requested their data be removed, to those members who have signed the DPA and are using the API to export member stats.
Thank you for your support,
World Community Grid Support Team --------------------------------------------------------- World Community Grid

Is there still a Ubuntu QT wallet available? Trying to set this up on a ubuntu rig.. thanks! Hi! The QT wallet is included with the standard linux install. From the commandline try this: ./biblepay/src/qt/biblepay-qt & Thanks for your reply, apparently I don't have the qt file which is the issue on Ubuntu Desktop 18.04. So to better explain I followed the wiki: http://wiki.biblepay.org/Ubuntu_PackagesOpen a Terminal Add the Biblepay repository: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:biblepay/stable Update apt: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install biblepay-qt <-- when I do this line I get the following lines/error: Reading package lists...

I think there was some issue with the pre-compiled package for Ubuntu 18, but this is from my own memory. Can anyone confirm this? I am using 16.04 LTS Ubuntu and it is great.

I didn't want to have to read through 400+ pages. However, I'm not seeing anything clarifying how to add WCG. I see adding Rosetta. If someone has the CPID from Rosetta already associated with their account and their CPID with WCG is the same, does that automatically opt them in to PODC with WCG as well or is there another step needed? I could see it beneficial and hindering both at the same time depending on situation. I'm always supporting WCG but only support Rosetta during challenges normally.
Also, are you basing the RAC off of what the project site is reporting? I ask because that can take a few weeks to actually become accurate while running the project but becomes very inaccurate if you stop. For instance, I can stop running the project now and several weeks/months/possibly years I will continue to have a RAC at the project. You will find most projects never return you back to 0 RAC because of how RAC is calculated. I was just curious to which "report" I should watch for this...

Hi again! I am not an expert so I hope some others will help with this comment. But WCG was a relatively new addition to our distributed computing efforts, so yes it seems harder to find the documentation for. I have not used WCG, only Rosetta. Can anyone offer instructions here please?I will leave it for Rob to answer questions about RAC reports because it is a little over my head. But if I am correct, you also need to have solved Rosetta/WCG tasks in the last 24 hours or so for your RAC to count. So if someone abandoned DC then they would not get paid, so a falling RAC (but never reaching 0) would not be a problem. I assume, even if it doesn't go to 0, it will get quite small. Right now, an RAC of around 10 would only get someone less than 2 BBP (just over half a US cent), and this will continue to decrease, I expect. So even if someone drops servers but keeps some running, the dropped servers are probably only having a negligible effect. This is just my interpretation though, I could be wrong! Thanks!

The repository (i.e. the Ubuntu binaries) are not out yet for Ubuntu 18.04. Lichtsucher (the guy making them) ran into compilation troubles for 18.04 and is working on fixing them. I'm not sure if in the meantime it's possible to compile it from source, but I'm pretty sure you would have to have some Linux skills to circumvent any incompatibilities. Here's the old bash script for the compilation: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/d1c1d35e3c8f67f5fb2e204479fa5c6bAlso this might help: https://www.reddit.com/r/BiblePay/comments/6ummuj/how_to_mine_biblepay_on_linux/@Rob: So IBM lawyers have been working "for months" on those 2 sheets of paper? Haha, sure! It's not that this agreement and the date hasn't been known for more than 2 years...
