The steps are pretty simple. First install the Boinc client software:



sudo apt-get install boinc-client



Next attach to the Seti project:



boinccmd --project_attach http://setiathome.berkeley.edu [YOUR KEY GOES HERE]



You can check the Boinc client log with:



cat /var/lib/boinc-client/stdoutdae.txt



And see the progress of the tasks with:



boinccmd --get_tasks



On a Pi 3, you might want to see the CPU temperature with:



vcgencmd measure_temp The steps are pretty simple. First install the Boinc client software:Next attach to the Seti project:You can check the Boinc client log with:And see the progress of the tasks with:On a Pi 3, you might want to see the CPU temperature with: ID: 1777732 ·

Well setiathome_enhanced was the app name for v5/6 IIRC. We are currently on v8 with an app name setiathome_v8. SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours

When I first installed it, I got the error that seti@home had no work for them, so I stopped using them for seti. Since seeing that version 8 was available for the rpi's I once again tried setting them up to run seti, but now I get an error message saying that it needs 32.00mb more disk space, and that 0mb disk space is available. The thing is I have 32G SD cards in all of them with plenty of space available, so I don't know where the seti program is looking for space!



I'm also currently running Seti@home on 3 iMacs with no problems. Oh, I should mention, the Raspberry's are a PiB, a Pi2B, both running Raspbian Jessie, 2 Pi3B's running Ubuntu Mate, and the BananaPi-Pro is running Bananian Jessie, all are kept up to date, so any help as to getting Seti@home working on them would be appreciated! :)

Attaching and reattaching works:

I think I may have used an older pi-specific build of the older project prior to the offical release, something like those on http://burdeview.blogspot.co.uk/p/raspberry-pi-boinc-project-ive-created.html probably.

Probably this is the limit in Boinc, not your free disk space (but as well to check that just in case).



If the later, just adjust in /var/lib/boinc-client/global_prefs_override.xml, disk_max_used_gb or disk_max_used_pct or disk_min_free_gb may be your problem.

I love the idea of having a Raspberry Pi just sitting around all day working on Seti units. I am using the Raspbian lite version since I don't need the GUI running and eating up process units. I understand that the Raspberry Pi 2 is a slower computer than modern ones. Any idea how long a work unit will take on the Raspberry Pi 2? I followed this guide, https://www.element14.com/community/community/raspberry-pi/raspberrypi2/blog/2015/05/20/setihome-boinc-on-raspbian-for-raspberry-pi-2 , but it took around 100 hours to finish a work unit.I love the idea of having a Raspberry Pi just sitting around all day working on Seti units.

Thank you Eric Korpela and Team!

Founder of LAN-com This is from 2015 Eric. They now configurated it for an ARM. The version you tried was not intended for the Raspberry or the ARM processors. Believe me - I did the same and my Raspberry Pi 2 also took around 80 to 100 hours for one workunit. Now they released a version especially for Raspberry (or let's say ARM structure) and because of this I'll try it again! :)Thank you Eric Korpela and Team! ID: 1777912 ·

The app creates fftw wisdom files in the slot directories (not coming from the project directory).

Are these created when the app starts, through built in routines that mimic fftwf-wisdom wisdom file generation?

Since they differ between hosts, they should be already "self-optimized", right? ID: 1777932 ·
