The stats page on Stanford's site is showng you as ranked #1 and #11 right now. Is that a glitch, or related to the recovered files you think?

SatinKzo,
It's a Core2 duo E6400 with 2GB ram running 64 bit Fedora Core 6. I've turned off the unnecessary services, but I'm still running X, Gnome, with Firefox and GAIM.

It's running 4 instances of FahCore_a1.exe, using between 25%-60% of each "processor". I am thinking I might try tweaking the defaults to see if I can squeaze a little more out.
When I first signed up for Folding I saw that "Foxbat" had already been used as a donor name, so I signed up using "Foxbat@SatelliteGuys" to uniquely identify myself. I changed back to "Foxbat" after I had been folding for a week due to a problem with the monitoring software I was using on the Mac. So there are two "Foxbat" donors according to Stanford (they hide the "@" and everything after it) which is why I'm in 1st and in 11th place.
I have to figure out how best to shut down folding on my Mac. I had Apple Updates waiting to be installed, so I went to shut down folding. Unfortunately, the procedure to stop folding caused my Terminal session to exit unexpectedly. There went 76% completion. Then when I tried to restart the non-console folding, it reset my Username to anonymous and the team # to 0! By the time I got that fixed, well, it was another 64% completion wiped out. 
Sounds like that beta is really buggy. No wonder you get so many extra points for it, they probably assume you lose 30% of your work!

How did you fix the user name and the team # thing? My console keeps doing this too (going to anonymous username and team # to 0) and I have not been able to fix it.
Thanks
Well, this stinks. I finally finished my first WU and I see this in the log...

This is repeated a few times and doesn't seem to be working. Anyone know if there something I need to do to fix this, or is this possibly a problem at the server that will eventually work itself out?

Ok, I shut down X on my machine, so it's command line only. It's shaving about 90 seconds off each 5000 step increment(1%)
I am building one of these next week! I can't wait!:
Great.......now I'm going to have to build a second one. :tux:
Oh well, I guess competition is good, just could get a little expensive if I have to build a personal cluster
