New Forum member, so pardon me if I restate something already asked. I am running Xubuntu 10.04 LTS and wanted to try the SMP Folding at Home client listed here: http://folding.stanford.edu/English/DownloadWinOther it's the one that says: Windows: V6 Beta SMP2/CPU clients Windows XP/2003/Vista/2008/7 SMP2 client console version Read this Install Guide first! (and Passkey Information) 6.30 (32-bit or 64-bit Now I know there's a Linux version, but it's 64 bit only & my O/S is 32 bit, so I thought I'd try running the 32 bit Windows SMP client under WINE. So far, it's appearing to work, executed, downloaded a Work Unit, and is folding away except every once in a while I get this error message in the terminal window. Like this.> [17:09:25] Completed 280000 out of 500000 steps (56%) > [17:30:33] Completed 285000 out of 500000 steps (57%) > fixme:file:MoveFileWithProgressW MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH unimplemented > fixme:file:MoveFileWithProgressW MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH unimplemented > [17:51:42] Completed 290000 out of 500000 steps (58%) > fixme:file:MoveFileWithProgressW MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH unimplemented > fixme:file:MoveFileWithProgressW MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH unimplemented > [18:12:51] Completed 295000 out of 500000 steps (59%) > [18:34:03] Completed 300000 out of 500000 steps (60%) > fixme:file:MoveFileWithProgressW MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH unimplemented > fixme:file:MoveFileWithProgressW MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH unimplemented > [18:55:17] Completed 305000 out of 500000 steps (61%) >Since everyone always says GOOGLE is your friend, I tried GOOGLEing the above error message & while I've found hundreds of links none answers the question Is this something serious, or not? What is it? And is there some windows32 DLL I'm missing I need to import? I'm running wine emulating Windows 7 if that helps. ;)
hey Santefe, I've never used folding at home through wine, but this still looks fairly obvious to me...>> fixme:file:MoveFileWithProgressW MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH unimplementedthe key here is "unimplemented". Whenever you see that, it means the program is making a call to something that is present in Windows, but NOT implemented by wine.> Since everyone always says GOOGLE is your friend, I tried GOOGLEing the above error message & while I've found hundreds of links none answers the question Is this something serious, or not? ?What is it? ?And is there some windows32 DLL I'm missing I need to import?It is serious, if the application misbehaves, doesn't run properly or doesn't run at all. is the app working correctly??? Also, just a tip, not all DLL's can be migrated to wine. some can while others won't work right, as they may try to access libraries/functions that are unimplmented by wine. - but maybe someone else has more insight into using folding at home, and can give you more specific details. I hope that helps (a little anyway) jordan
Well, I had glanced thru the Folding Community forums, and someone there said that it works, but would throw out those errors during the run. I was just hoping to find out what they meant & if there was a way to stop them.. I'll probably just let it complete it & switch back to the native uni-processor F at H client, this was just an experiment to see if it did work. ;) Thanks.
And it was accepted no problem, so I guess it's just an annoying message I can skip over. Thanks for the help. 8)
