[/quote] I have.. on NetBSD 3.0 amd64.. I'm stumped, too. This is starting to seem to be more trouble than it's really worth. 73 de AI8W, Chris Abdico Concussio Fidens Servo Libertas Semper! ![]() ![]() |

Chris, at the third party site (boinc.berkeley.edu/download_other.php) is a boinc client and seti app for NetBSD available. I had some troubles to compile the boinc client on NetBSD. But with the seti app I had a lot of troubles. The BSD libs has some problems with the math libs, which cause some heave differences (up to 10 to 500 times higher than in the reference result) in the computed results. With a lot of hours of testing I get it to run, and the science results are all vailid. But now I have the same problem on NetBSD and OpenBSD on SPARC. All parameters and tricks I used for the i386 platfrom has no success. A solution is not in sight in the moment... In cause of this problems, I recommend every OpenBSD i386 and NetBSD i386 to use the binaries on the third party site Lars |
