quite nice folding installer for linux that finds all the cpus available. Also setsup a script that i move to my init.d/ so that i can run it as a service biggrin.gif (i feel leet now smile.gif )
(Edit: the above is what you came here for :) )

There is a version available for Linux Here (http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandegroup/release/FAH502-Linux.exe)
Create 2 directories for it eg.
# mkdir /home/fold1
# mkdir /home/fold2
The copy the FAH502-Linux.exe to both directories
# cp FAH502-Linux.exe /home/fold1/FAH1.exe
# cp FAH502-Linux.exe /home/fold2/FAH2.exe
# cd /home/fold1
# ./FAH1.exe -advmethods -forceasm -local -config
answer all the questions and when complete press Cntrl-z and then type
# bg
to place the process in the background, then
# cd /home/fold2
# ./FAH2.exe -advmethods -forceasm -local -config
answer all the questions (make sure you choose a different number for the processor) and when complete press Cntrl-z and then type
# bg
to place the process in the background.
There may be other ways to run it, but that's the method I use. You could also create a startup script to run the commands when the system boots.
cheeres whitey, i tihnk i have booth installed now :)
just need to work out how to kick start them both at bootup :)
edit: wootage yeah baby

sadly this server sounds like a hover so im probably not running it 24/7 untill its moved back into our server room.
Nice find, I could use that :D
Thanks Jamoe!

Expecting my first fold tomorrow morning :)
Just wanted to heads-up a application in the *Ubuntu package repo called origami
simple, and it works.
sudo apt-get install origami
and
sudo origami install -t 33597 and -u Othbarty
and your set. This detects the amount of cores available, and sets it up as a system service. You can always temporarily disable it with a sudo /etc/init.d/origami stop
If for some reason you dont want to have it autostarted, just issue a
sudo update-rd.c -f origami remove
Which will remove the softlinks for auto-start :)
Enjoy!
Nice. :thumb:
I'm currently in the process of putting an Ubuntu box together at home for some media serving duties. It'd be rude not to have it sat there folding as well.
Superb :) going to try this now on my works laptop :D
going to see if i can trick everyone else into running those commands as well :D hahahaha

Good stuff!
I've been running FAH6 for yonks on Linux. Just start it with the -smp argument and it'll use any and all CPUs it can find for the one folding process, instead of having to run 1 folding process for each CPU. I did look at doing GPU folding under Linux, but there was a helluva lot of faff involving Wine that I just couldn't be bothered with.
I assume Origami uses FAH6 and isn't still using FAH5?
yup, origami uses fah6. Just checked :)
