Anyone else notice that the BOINC client doesn't give an accurate percentage of completion for currently running WUs? Or more like it's non-existent? I know it's a little "quirk" but it's something that I sometimes see first, before the "Time Remaining"
My progress bar doesn't move at all. Always at 0%. But doesn't seem to affect the results though.
yeah same here - only changes from 0 to 100% when finished but it remains 0 all the way through the WU.
Lookie here - we are getting there!

I have a 4200+ X2 system I just piecemealed together in an attempted to get crunching. Only had a spare 2GB flash drive I used to put Ubuntu on, however not enough space for Correlizer to operate.
No case for the system, and it's sitting on my entertainment center connected to the TV. Wife is going to make me put it all away tonight. Maybe I'll make a Fry's run tomorrow morning and get a cheap case and HDD.
Had to use a screwdriver to short the pins to turn it on.
I did a similar project just 4 days ago - a real quick one X2 5000+. It sits un-boxed on the bench and crunches well ... approx 20 minutes/wu ... in 4 days it has crunched more than 600 WUs!. Not too shabby for a 6 years old CPU, 5 years old mobo, DDR2 RAM from I don't know when, an ancient Seagate IDE 80 GByte HDD and a really old Sony CD-Rom. Ubuntu of course ...
