Still a pity the Linux Clients are so much slower, but at least it is
now the fastest Box in the house ;) (althought 'cheating' with its
400MHz bonus *g*)
That performance I can live with, after all a free Operating System
means to take a few compromises. So my evil plans to convert from
Windows to Linux are still on track :D
I'm now running the SetiQueue - SetiSpy - Win-NT-CLI-3.03 combination
under Wine on Mandrake 9.1 Linux. Seem to be getting marginally better
times than when running Windoze although there may be a few distortions
due to the reobservation units that have gone through. Might also be due
to more accurate time keeping/logging.
Very nice to be able to dual boot and have the Seti stuff pick up from
where it left off unperturbed.
But then again, not needed to go back to Windoze for some time now...
May well squish those partitions down somewhat...
(Also, s@h are listing new tapes being split after a 3 week hiatus.
Still getting old WUs through though at the moment.)
Keep crunchin'
