Native LinSMP help!

[nitrobass24]

Ok so i have installed ubuntu and have it working decent considering im still a linux n00b.

I used the finstall option by doing

curl -O http://ra.vendomar.ee/~ivo/finstall
chmod +x finstall
./finstall

Then i followed the prompts and entered my info.
I did not change any advanced options.

I then manually downloaded the new FAH6 drop in and replaced the current that finstall created.

But my the client wont start

stephen@stephen-desktop:~/foldingathome$ ./folding start

['folding' ver. 6.2]

Starting up FAH client(s) on 16 processor(s):
Starting FAH client at CPU1...
FAH client #1 startup: OK


Starting of FAH client(s): FAILURE

I've never installed fah on linux using those commands, where did you get those from? I always follow the linux guide in the sticky and it always works great for me.

./finstall smp

Fixed ......

you need to rerun Finstall with the SMP flag to intall the correct client.
Then drop in the new fah6.
Then open the FaH file and find the default flags line.
Change them to "-smp 16 -bigadv -verbosity 9" if you want to run with bigadv on 16 cores.
If you want it to run as a service its ./installService.

More info

While I don't post that often, I do read quite often...I would just like to take a 2 minute timeout and point out the fact that Tigerbiten is the fucking man.

That is all.

ok well i have scrapped the finstall idea. and followed Xils guide in the sticky and have it running.

Now if I could HFM.net to run in linux I would be set.
