Name : boinc-client Product : Fedora 12 Version : 6.10.33 Release : 1.r20470svn.fc12 URL : http://boinc.berkeley.edu/ Summary : The BOINC client core Description : The Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) is an open- source software platform which supports distributed computing, primarily in the form of "volunteer" computing and "desktop Grid" computing. It is well suited for problems which are often described as "trivially parallel". BOINC is the underlying software used by projects such as s...@home, einst...@home, ClimatePrediciton.net, the World Community Grid, and many other distributed computing projects. This package installs the BOINC client software, which will allow your computer to participate in one or more BOINC projects, using your spare computer time to search for cures for diseases, model protein folding, study global warming, discover sources of gravitational waves, and many other types of scientific and mathematical research. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: - Update to 6.10.33 - Enable more effective running of GPU tasks by changing the default nice level from +19 to +10 (resolves BZ#562883) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Tue Feb 9 2010 Milos Jakubicek <[email protected]> - 6.10.33-1.r20470svn - Rebase the 6.10 branch to 6.10.33 - Run with +10 niceness instead of +19 (resolves BZ#562883) * Tue Dec 22 2009 Milos Jakubicek <[email protected]> - 6.10.25-1.r20004svn - Rebase to 6.10 branch - Use XZ for sources compression - Added BR: sqlite-devel - Dropped boinc-gcc44.patch (merged upstream) - Dropped boinc-macbuild.patch (merged upstream) - Fix owner/group of shared libraries -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #562883 - Running boinc-client daemon with priority +19 is not optimal for CUDA projects https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=562883 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
