thats the one I have been using. when you compiled the core what verison did you end up with? I have core v.095 and cli wrapper v 0.3b

Yay, well I've finally got an actual Linux executable running, although I did make about 1000 points on this machine under WINE .

It's still a tad slower, but soo much easier to renice one process than 8...

Yess!! Runs like a dream... (~30 slower than running under wine, tho... wonder why that is?)

OK, so which is the one to use?

The official? http://ecompute.org/ecc2/clients.html

[TVM] FeLine's? http://www.its.caltech.edu/~sgeier/code/ecc2.html

or use Wine with the Win 32 version?

if you look they are the same linux client. as for the wine and windows verison just because it shows a higher iterations per second doesn't mean it is. If someone runs one for a week than the other for another week which one got the most dp's is the one I would assume to be faster.

As res0r9lm says, the ecompute.org page just points to FeLine's version.

I have a feeling the windows client probably is faster - likely the code was optimised for their compiler and not for gcc. Hopefully we'll be seeing optimised clients soon (and athlon optimised clients! pretty please?)

It's fairly easy to get the wine version working, but seeing as I can't get it to work without X, I reckon the native client will be better suited for cows (headless ones in particular...)
