Manual Testing CPU

2009-07-18, 17:08

Hi guys, I just have a quick question for you, if I may:

A few days ago, I wanted to work on some manually assigned expos (from http://www.mersenne.org/manual_assignment/) and I noticed that, even before I put the assignment lines in the worktodo.txt, I suddenly had another CPU in my list called "Manual testing".
For unimportant reasons, I didn't work on the expos, so I un-assigned them via the assignments page. Anyway, after releasing the expos, I still had the Manual testing CPU, and I can't delete it as it is possible with "normal" CPU's. Is there any way to remove it, will it "expire" in some time, or will it just remain there?

Thanks in advance.

I think it will just remain. It might disappear after a year of inactivity but maybe not.

Well, it's not a big deal anyways. Thanks.

Just what I wanted to ask... I'm working an LL test on my computer, and it has a green circle sign with ''t'' along with it... I have some residual manual testing which is marked with yellow triangle and ''u''. I'm new to this, so forgive me if it's something basic, but it says I have two registered computers, one is my Athlon running LL, the other one ''manual testing''. Any ideas how to remove that ''phantom'' so to say cpu, it has no box to check and remove :(

Once you create a manual testing machine, you can't get rid of it.

Why? I find it to be extremely annoying having my 'team profile' say I have 2 CPUs running instead of one.
