Anyone have issues folding inside linuxforge's virtual box image? Ive completed two wu's now and had issues with both.

1st wu, i received 0 credit for. no sign of problems and everything seemed normal.

2nd wu, i received 10k credit only. normal bigadv wu's i'll receive around 60K

:mad:
 
I don't think I've used it in about 2 years.

When is the last time it was updated?
 
There is really only one issue with both the VBox and VM images and that is they are only 8GB partitions. So for big-bigadv with the automatic backups enabled you run out of disk space after a while. A quick reboot of the VM with a Unix utility disk and you can resize the partition and that issue goes away.

Otherwise I've not had any issue running either the VM image on my i7 2600K on windows 7 or the VBox image on my i7 970 running windows server 2008.
 
Worst case just DL any linux distro and apply BFS and use that.
 
Agreed, however the LF images are quite handy because of the web interface

I think you can change the size of partition in VM to whatever you want...
 
Quick question on this, I'm using vmplayer, if i quit my gpu client, then restart it, the gpu client sees to only run half as fast.

Tpf is double, temperature is half of what it was. Only way to get it back normal is a reboot.

So is this the vmplayer ddropping my card into 2d, though precision and gpuz say no, and is there a better way then a full reboot?

You can change the vdisk size, but to change the partition you still need a partition tool.

So say you have a 8GB vdisk and 8GB partition, if you change the vdisk to 12GB the partition will be still 8GB with 4GB free unused space.
