I just switched to linux recently (last week) and looking thru my office email i see several warnings about the power doing down so that script I put together may have been a problem after all. (deleting those .sah files).
for win32 duals, the command line setiathome.exe properly loads the next wu. In looking at the readme for a unix system I see (doing this from memory as I am at home)
while(1)
setiathome
wait(20000)
loop
just guessing about the above and its syntax but I dont have to do that for win32 command line.
should the while loop have gone in? Whenver i run "top" I always see the two setiathome at the top of the page with cpu0 and cpu1 so it would appear that both are running. I tried a -cpu 0 and it didnt like that command switch. I have bene running seti since early when it first came out and have 40k + units but have never run linux till last week. I built an smp kernel and that kernel is running.
