HI

Boinc 7.6.31 in Ubuntu 16.04 not getting new work for seti@home.
I am not sure I wanted my computer running for 8 hours without processing new work? I think that’s why I stopped working seti@home 6 years ago,
Does anyone know why I am not getting new work? Should seti@home be this hard to use?

Thanks

First question: is your computer asking for new work? Check the Event Log (Ctrl+Shift+E to view it).

HI

Thanks for the reply, Last night it had a lot of seti@home work ready to be processed.They are all gone now, what else is new? The next time I have work assigned should I disconnect the modem so they can't be taken? Assigned work disappearing happens ALL the time.

Thanks for any help

The event log should tell you what happened to the work - perhaps it was processed and reported when complete (that's what's supposed to happen).

The user search turns up nobody with the user name 'Martin Glazer' at SETI, so I assume you registered with a different handle. If you posted one of the ID numbers relating to your user account or your computer account, we could possibly advise better without fishing around in the dark.

Thanks for all the help?
