[QUOTE=LaurV;409861]Forgive my stupid question: (as I am not using 28.7 yet, so I can not test it)
Did you compiled it by yourself? (i.e. without George's "funny" code?)[/QUOTE]

No, it's the precompiled version (downloaded from this very thread).

When I recently started using some other computers, they showed up as untrusted at first with 28.6.

[QUOTE=UBR47K;409858]Is it me or 28.7 version is shown as untrusted client in the CPUs page?[/QUOTE]

I'm not seeing this. Please turn on Debug=2 in the Primenet section of prime.txt. Communicate with the server and email me the prime.log file.

Thanks.

I checked the CPU page today and it now shows as a Trusted client.

If version 28.5 is deprecated and we're supposed to use 28.7, why is it that 28.5 is still listed at [URL="http://www.mersenne.org/download/"]http://www.mersenne.org/download/[/URL]?

Hmm... good reminder.

If all of the mirrors are updated I can fix that. I'll check on those, otherwise for now I could disable the mirrors from being included in the download links until they get 28.7 up there.

I also should make sure 28.7 is officially official. I know it's out there but I'm not sure if George has given it his stamp of approval that it's good to go?

EDIT: I checked the mirrors, and "mersenne.info" doesn't have the 28.7 stuff yet but the others do.

There haven't been any bug reports so I guess we should make it official.

I mocked up the changes earlier, so... done.

The OSX command line version for 28.7 doesn't seem to exist, so I left that one at version 28.5.

I also popped in the whatsnew.txt from 28.7 since there's a link to it on the page... I noticed it didn't have a "28.7" specific section so I added in the changes I was aware of or found when comparing sources. I always like being able to see what's new when I'm updating. :smile:

Speaking of which, the whatsnew.txt file included with the download only covers up to version 28.6.

Yeah... the only things I was personally aware of that 28.7 has are the things I manually added to the online version.

[CODE]New features in Version 28.7 of prime95.exe
-------------------------------------------

1) Fixed a bug introduded in v28.6 with the "ScaleOutputFrequency" and "TitleOutputFrequency" options
2) Manually disabling AVX will also disable FMA3[/CODE]

Pretty minor stuff, although I appreciate the 1st one since I use it on my systems. Without the scaling, it was really wonky when testing a super large one alongside a much smaller on another worker.

Any news about the OSX command line version?

Also, bug report for the OSX GUI version: Window -> Merge All Workers causes a reproducible crash. Crash log attached.
