| Subject: Using BOINC with optimized astropulse, but standard multi-beam apps? |

Hi there,
I have a P3/Linux machine, which I (also) use to crunch Seti@Home units
using BOINC.
Recently, an SSE optimized version of the astropulse application for Linux
was released. Until then, I just ran the 'default' BOINC, without any
app_info.xml entry.
In order to use the optimzed ap app, I had to install an app_info.xml.
However, since this xml-file only contains references to the astropulse
cruncher, only astropulse WUs are downloaded.
As far as I know, no optimized, SSE/Linux version of the regular multibeam
app has been released.
So my question is: what do I put in the app_info.xml in order to allow
this machine to also crunch regular multi-beam WUs?
My current app_info.xml is:
<app_info>
<app>
<name>astropulse</name>
</app>
<file_info>
<name>astropulse-5.0.i686-pc-linux-gnu</name>
<executable/>
</file_info>
<app_version>
<app_name>astropulse</app_name>
<version_num>500</version_num>
<file_ref>
<file_name>astropulse-5.0.i686-pc-linux-gnu</file_name>
<main_program/>
</file_ref>
</app_version>
</app_info>
Regards,
Patrick.
