linuxrouterYou could try this:

modprobe f71882fg
sensors -s

It may require an lmsensors upgrade as well. I'll look into that.

Trying 1.4.0 Vbox version out on Virtualbox 4.1, however am having a few problems.

1. http service isn't working on
2. SMB is asking for a password when I try and browse to \\ip\fah

Not sure if its using BFS as stock as when I did a dmesg |grep BFS it came back with the BFS message. Can you confirm 1.4.0 is BFS?

Thanks mate

Worked fine!  I'll be loading up the new native build by the end of the week.  I'll provide feedback.

I just realized there is a newer version of lm-sensors supporting new devices. I should have loaded that in last time but will get it added in to the next update.

I'll test again, could have been a problem with my setup, but FYI it already had BFS installed, I didn't have to do anything.

Not sure if this is an issue or not...

When you enable verbosity via the web interface, then go to the administration tab and stop/start, it starts the client with "-verbosity 7" instead of "-verbosity 9".

I changed my script so it runs with 9 instead of 7.  Not sure if you want to make a code change for the next release.  Perhaps adding a drop down selection for verbosity level like with the number of cores?

I could add in slapt-get for package management. The original images (except for the PXE image) were based on Slackware64 but have been heavily modified to work as a folding appliance. Most if not all Slackware packages not already installed should run okay.

A few months back I messaged back and forth with tear on adding thekraken into my images. There were a few items/concerns discussed regarding installation and management most of which I can handle. The one item that could become a problem down the road is support for future folding cores. Tear mentioned possibly adding a definition file to define support for future cores but I'm not sure he has had the chance to add that in. I can check back with him again. In the short term, it should be possible to add thekraken in manually and run the installation once the folding core is downloaded.

Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the info! And thanks again for the awesome work you've done in making it easy for novice and veteran folders alike get the most out of their gear!

Hey LR, I have a question. Sorry if it's answered before, I didn't do a search to be honest.
When writing the image to a drive using the "write sdx" command, can we give a partition, as in "write hda4"?

Thanks man!

Looks like VMware Player 4.0 supports 8 CPUs. Just got it installed, going to see if it works. 

Edit: Just tested, still limited to 4 CPUs 

That is unfortunate. I had hoped the next major release would support at least 16-processors. I wonder if the if with the newer versions that the application will only support physical cores and not virtual cores from HT resulting in a 4 CPU limit.

Thanks for giving it a try.

Did you try changing the cpuid.coresPerSocket in the vmx file? As per

It definitely says on the site that you can run up to 8 virtual CPU's on v4.

I'll have to have a play.
