Last night we analysed the problem and decided that we need more memory and a separation of yoyo@home and the rest of the rechenkraft.net page. Thanks to the support which I got in chat and to the donations, we now ordered a new server for yoyo@home.
Our new server is installed and got the yoyo@home backup but is currently not yet online. I think that workunits which reached the server will get credits, but it seems that there are a couple of WUs which were not properly uploaded. For these no credits can be granted. We hope to be online very soon.

Version 1.09 of cruncher for Linux 32 bit contains now the newest distributed.net client version 2.9015-504.
14 January 2008
I created some new evolution@home workunits, which are now twice as long as before.
13 January 2008
A memory corruption problem was recently detected in the PS3 version of the cruncher. Read more about it in our forum and report problems or even that there are no problems.
06 January 2008
I will create new workunits for evolution@home. The new workunits runs longer than before. Because of missing checkpoints I will grant 30% more credits for all credits which are higher than 100.
06 January 2008
Version 1.04 will no more crash if the work unit restarts. But it starts from the very beginning, it does not resume the work unit.
01 January 2008
The evolution@home application is now productive. By default you will get now workunits from both applications. You can change these settings in your preferences.

Fixed credits for evolution@home workunits are now in place. Report problems or questions in our forum.

I wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year. Thank you for supporting yoyo@home and running to rank #25 in the distributed.net team stats.

The race between L'Alliance Francophone and SETI.Germany pushed yoyo@home in the top 30 of the overall distributed.net team stats. Thanks fellow crunchers for this christmas gift.
21 December 2007
Short update information for evolution@home: In the last days I automated the sending of results to Laurence,
the author of evolutio@home. I sent round about 100MB of compressed data. He was on a conference and busy with preparations for it.
But now he reviews and imports the results. As next step I will work on fixed credits to aoid double computing.
I clarified the concept and have now an idea how it could be calculated. If both things are working I will switch from
beta to productive.
14 December 2007
Since some days a race between the #1 and #2 team is ongoing. Therefore the
OGR output povided to distributed.net
is now 7 times more than before. I keep a very close eye to the server to ensure everytime enough work units.
02 December 2007
I released a beta version of evolution@home for Mac. Give feedback in the forum.
01 December 2007
yoyo@home reached the top 50 in the
overall distributed.net team stats.
25 November 2007
I added information on the server status page
to see for which application work units are available.
23 November 2007
Version 1.02 runs additional to Windows XP also on Windows 2000 and Vista. It has also a progress indicator.
But it is hard to estimate the time to complete a workunit and also the progress. So it may happen that the
workunit finishes already at 50%. But anyway better than no progress indicator.
22 November 2007
The first beta of evolution@home is running and
it runs better than expected. The results contains already
real usefull simulations which will be send back to the author.
Thanks to rebirther for the logo update.
BTW: If somebody wants to develop
a nice screensaver send me a mail.
20 November 2007
To get rid of the sometimes appearing endless loop at 87% of the wu I created new versions for Intel and PPC Mac
and for 32- and 64 bit Linux. This problem happened for round about 10% of the work units on Mac and Linux.
20 November 2007
I implemented a database backup and some cleanup of all the generated log and statistics.
The server runs smoothly without any manual intervention. More than 100 days OGR are crunched for distributed.net.
In total individual and team stats we are in the top 100. On daily basis we are in the top 5.
I started now phase III, wrapping the next project.
06 October 2007
After two month providing OGR back to distributed.net the yoyo@home Boinc wrapper team is on the
overall rank 157 of all teams in
distributed.net statistic.
OGR has now completed more than 72%
of its search space, predicted end is mid of 2008.
02 October 2007
Some volunteers reported problems on 64 bit Ubuntu. I hope version 1.08 now fixes this issue. This version is now a native
64 bit version.
30 September 2007
Added a Free BSD version for Intel.
29 September 2007
Thanks to Dotsch clients for PS3 and Sparc Solaris could be added.
Please test and report success and problems in our forum.
A Boinc 5.11.0 client for Solaris can be
downloaded here.
27 September 2007
OGR has now completed more than 70%
of its search space. Some predictions predict the end for the mid of 2008.
16 September 2007
A new validator is in operation which grants credits based on calculated GNodes.
Quorum is now set to 1 and credits are granted immediately.
07 September 2007
After one month providing OGR back to distributed.net the yoyo@home Boinc wrapper team is on the
overall rank 651 of all teams in
distributed.net statistic.
06 September 2007
Suspend / resume did not work properly on Windows. This version solves the problem. If there a problems with
this version report it in our forum.
02 September 2007
I increased the estimated fpops for a workunit 20 times. This should avoid to many downloads which can not fit the deadline.
For new workunits the deadline is increased to 7 days.
31 August 2007
Suspend, resume, exit should now works properly in version 1.07.
Thanx to Codemann and scsimodo.
Please report problems in our forum.
29 August 2007
Version 1.06 contains checkpoints and a progress indicator. Progress bar will be increased every 1/8 of the WU.
Please report problems in the forum.
29 August 2007
I added a 64 bit version for Linux. Please report problems in
this thread.
14 August 2007
If you are interested in clients for different platforms send me a mail (yoyo at mailueberfall dot de)
or post it in our forum.
13 August 2007
Linux version is now static linked and works also on systems with older gcc.
Intel Mac version should now also work. The execute flag on cruncher was missing.
12 August 2007
The problem storing the profile picture is now solved.
10 August 2007
Here we are on a new server with fixed IP. Account creation is open.
03 August 2007
Big thanks to Codemann who compiled the Windows wrapper and did a great support. The windows version is now also ready for testing and I released new OGR work units to celebrate it. The project now enters Beta state.
If you are interested in applications for other platforms write a mail to yoyo at mailueberfall dot de or use the forum.
If you have problems with the project reset it, it should work afterwards.
31 July 2007
Big thanks to scsimodo and frost who compiled the Mac wrapper and did a great test. The Mac version is now ready for testing and I released also 100 work units to celebrate it. There is also progress developing the Windows version.
BTW: Account creation is open.
30 July 2007
Created some work for Linux cruncher to test the work generator, validator and assimilator. The legacy application which is now integrated is the distributed.net client which runs OGR.
29 July 2007
Integration of the legacy application started. I distributed some work for Linux. Some more will follow soon.
21 July 2007
Now fixed credits are granted. I also increased the runtime to 30 minutes. The server was updated to the latest version. Please report problems in the forum.
A big thanks to scsimodo providing the application for Mac.
21 July 2007
The project now has a logo, thanks to Rebirther.
20 July 2007
Will test fixed credits this weekend. How many credits should be given for a WU? Send your suggestions to yoyo at mailueberfall.de or in the forum.
19 July 2007
Account creation is now opened for the next days.
18 July 2007
Account creation will be opened in the next days.
17 July 2007
Dank tutta55 vom Team Boinc.be gibt es jetzt auch eine Applikation für Windows.
16 July 2007
Es gibt jetzt nur noch 20 WU pro Tag und ein User sollte
jetzt nicht mehr die gleiche WU 2 Mal erhalten.
15 July 2007
Der Server läuft erstmal stabil. Ich lass ihn mal laufen. Forum und Wiki
sind auch vorbereitet und verlinkt. Herzlich Willkommen auch an die Yahoo und Google Bots, die sich inzwischen jede WU angesehen haben.
14 July 2007
yoyo@home aufgesetzt. Workunits dauern z.Z. ca. 10 Minuten.
Wer unter Linux rechnet und etwas testen will schreibt mir eine email.
Ich richte dann einen Account ein. Es wird Uppercase gerechnet.
Die Workgeneratoren, Feeder und Assimilatoren laufen.
Der Server wird nur gelegentlich mal Online sein, ich hoffe so immer von 20:00 - 22:00
oder auch öfter, mal sehen.
