When misfit has a popup window, it seems to stop assignments.
I have it running on a remote machine which does not have someone
checking the screen everyday. So my GPU have run dry on assignments.

Would be nice if it handled LL assignments for cudaLucas also.

Thanks,

I would say that your work calculations are off. Please verity them using the work calculator.

CudaLucas was done. We had one user.. Project is dead.

If you use remote PC read the change log where you can find out more about...


7.REMOTE CONTROL! Here's the big one!!!
I have developer MISFITserver.exe which runs on a remote PC and receives commands from MISFIT to control your instances of mfakto or mfaktc. The server responds to four commands: INQUIRE,START,STOP,KILL. Think GPU farms and you will understand the goal of MISFIT remote control.
See the MISFITSERVER.TXT for more information.

I found the calculator about a week into using misfit.
It basically said to max all the work fetch settings.
On a typical day it submits 80 results to 2^75.

I tried misfit for cudaLucas anyway. My login failed when trying to get work.
It could easily be my problem. I need a password gen program that does
not use Oo01Il (my password has 3 of those).

There is a package with a python script to get assignments.
I downloaded it once but can not find it again.

Can you post a screenshot of your work calculator as I don't really understand "It basically said to max all the work fetch settings." ?

MISFIT Cudu was never updated for the new website, etc... It would need considerable changes to become functional again... if you find me 10 users I'll resurrect the project.

If it means that you would get automatic new assignments for cudaLucas (and submit the results), then count me in

Sorry for late reply, just saw this request.

The 14 GPU are now running cudaLucas using llloop.py from the primetools package.

My other 3 GPU are doing TF work and using misfit.

Thanks,

It's been many months since the last MISFIT release and I guess that is a good thing, but I have some free time and if anyone has any feature requests let me know and I'll see what's doable.



Thanks

I don't know if this is a new feature or maybe I just don't know how to do this, but it would be great is we don't have to assign work manually and it did it automatically. Is that possible? I'm relatively new to the project.

misfit will fetch work and submit results for your GPU running a trail factoring program.
Try it out. Use Operation / Configuration Editor to get started.

Yea, but it fetches it into the MISFITWorkToDo.txt file and then we need to manually hit the assign work button three times per factor to move it to the appropriate worktodo.txt file, right? Can this be automated somehow so we don't have to do this? I have one GPU card and one computer so I would think this could be done. Or am I missing something? Thanks.
