Intel-based Macintosh
 

I am not sure if this has been stated in the forum, but I couldn't find it so I figured it'd just be best to ask.

Is there a version of Prime95 or MPrime that can be run on Intel-based Macintosh computers (ie. MacBook, MacBook Pro, etc.)?

See [url]http://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=9779[/url]

Thanks. I was able to download the program and start an LL Test. I let it run for several days and restarted my computer today.

Now when I open mprime in Terminal, I can't get it to continue its testing. How might I get it to work again?

Use "./mprime -m" to get to the menus.

From there you can use test/status to see what is scheduled and test/continue to resume testing.

I can successfully direct the terminal to mprime, but it is unresponsive to all of the commands that I have tried. (ie. "./mprime -m", "-m", "mprime -m"). Am I still doing something wrong?

You need to start the Terminal application, cd to the folder with the mprime executable, then run the application as Prime95 has shown.

I finally got it running again! Thanks for all the help.

FYI, I'm only getting 10-15% cpu usage from the app, even when the computer is idle. Are their command line switches to up the usage? I have a core 2 duo at 2.33 ghz..
