Other projects do this successfully.

Can you point me towards a project that'll make it easy for me donate work?

SIMAP, Seti@Home (there is also an un-official 64bit Seti@Home client), Einstein@Home I think does and a few of the smaller ones.



To download rosetta@home programmes you just go here https://boinc.bakerlab.org/download/ as mentioned before.

Team mauisun.org

Is the source of rosetta open for us to compile our own clients?

Is the source of rosetta open for us to compile our own clients?

Negative. We're at the mercy of the rosetta team to decide to either supply a 64 bit client, or recognize that we can run the 32 bit client. The current policy is to not recognize [i.e., refuse] any contributions from 64 bit computers.

Status update?

I just finished installing Suse 10.2 64 bit, and searched for a 64 bit Boinc client. Tried to attach, and got the same tired message about:

There is a way to crunch rosetta on 64bit Linux.
I wrote a little HowTo in the BOINC Synergy Forum.

I'm on 64 bit kubuntu, and using the anonymous platform.l it was detected just fine, and began crunching, but every single work unti fails. the first three have had client errors. I have 2 right now that, bizarrely enouhg, do not make progress while they run. CPU time does not increase, nor does % complete, but they have the state running.

see https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=3031

any ideas?

Have you had a look at the HowTo I wrote? ;-) HowTo
If you read it carefully it should work for Kubuntu too!
I run rosetta with Ubuntu 64bit and a Teammate with Suse 64bit, so it should work with Kubuntu too...

Its not. I can attach the project, and it downloads work. And then, at some percentage, the CPU time (the counter of how much time the CPU has spent on the WU) stops counting, even if the WU is Running. Then After a long time, I get a Compute error. Rosetta is finding the applciation and running on it, but its failing to complete work units. And you're right, if it works for Ubuntu, it should be working for Kubuntu....

FYI, you need to update that since they released their new application today

Same here: Rosetta work units fail with client error. WUs of my 3 other projects finish without errors. (Ubuntu 7.04 64 Bit).

I have been running this project with the same amd64 cpu since 2005, why am I now having issues with the client and not being able to connect?
It just recently started last week with
