evo for linux

[yoyo]

Hello,

here you can download a evo app for Linux. It runs evolution@home in Wine. You must have Wine installed in /usr/bin/wine.

How to install the app:
1) If not yet done attach to yoyo@home
2) Shutdown Boinc
3) Download the app and extract the content into projects/www.rechenkraft.net_yoyo
4) start boinc
5) download a evo wu.

started on two linux32 + evolution@home WUs received (evolutionathome 0.01). So they keep running now with:
- wine 1.1.27 / boinc 6.10.17
- wine 1.1.29 / boinc 6.10.24

Is there any way to continue to participate in d.net and ECM and still run evo? They got removed when I followed your installation procedure.

Hello,
on Linux you can't run evo and muon in parallel. I'll investigate if this will be possible.

yoyo is investigating the following:

linux32 with this WU:
<file_xfer_error>
<file_name>evo_A1260989704-56-0_34.3MB_63.84_1_0</file_name>
<error_code>-161</error_code>
</file_xfer_error>

besides this: the known progress bar anomaly (>100%) appears

Evo should now run without problems on linux + wine.

Thanks.

the two linux32 from above created WUs with success
also (still) works on win7 RC64

Hello,
I put now evo and muon in one archive and one app_info.xml. If you extract this in your project folder you should be able to run muon and evo on Linux with Wine.

looks like its working

I have now one PC thats runs evo and muon (and PrimeGrid AP26 @CUDA) at the same time (headless).

Very nice xmas-gift from you. I hope you didn't let your friends and family down for this gift.

I put now evo and muon in one archive and one app_info.xml. If you extract this in your project folder you should be able to run muon and evo on Linux with Wine.

Now you can crunch these two under linux, but now boinc under linux isn't getting anymore ogr or ecm wu's.
I think that is, because these apps are not in the app_info.xml

Has anyone got this working on Gentoo 64? Wine keeps failing by looking for the .wine folder in /root/ I tried to create it in /var/lib/boinc, but that just crashed my boinc client. Do I just need to move on or is there a way to get around this?

I don't know how stable WINE64 is actually but a few month ago winehq.org wrote that it is recommended to use 32bit WINE cause WINE64 is not really ready to use.
