00:15 <MerryTughan> zombie67: In answer to the second question, the G4's would be able to run Leopard, but not Snow Leopard.
00:15 <MerryTughan> And the GCC compiler does support ASM, but there are some differences with special code that I've run into before. The best way is just to try it and see.
00:16 <MerryTughan> And I'm off to bed. Feel free to quote me to the admin though.
01:04 <zombie67> thanks!!

02:15 * xionyc had this to add before hitting the pillow...
02:15 <xionyc> Bona fide 64-bit OS X only exists on the x86 Macs. Apple (in its infinite stupidity) never quite got around to making a fully 64-bit OS on the PowerPC for 10.5, mostly because it would have had all the G4 owners screaming bloody murder (the G4 is 32-bit, not 64). Said owners would've probably plunked down the cash for x86 Macs anyway, thereby giving "Good old Steve" his jollies, but I digress...
02:15 <xionyc> As for the G5s <g>, yes: it /can/ run 64-bit PPC code (ex.: there are 64- and a 32-bit versions of MySQL for PowerPC/OS X), but considering that the vast majority of 10.5's code is 32-bit (if not all of it), the benefits of 64-bit code are lost in Leopard limbo in the same way that the original PowerPC models' performances were stunted by the fact that very little of System 7's code was compiled for PowerPCs. (Ah... those were the days...)
02:15 <xionyc> All in all, it *can* be done. But by doing so, you aliente all but G5 owners. And, as a closing corollary, if you want to really take massive advantage of a 64-bit PowerPC, run Linux. (YDL 6.2 on my quad G5 is so fast that I can't even keep up anymore!)
02:15 <xionyc> NN all, and good luck with the last-minute shopping!

09:47 <quail> s/it/in
09:49 <quail> miha: Debian is not as bad as people make it out to be, if you running testing for example and the a bit of software that is newer in unstable, it very easy to mix and match without major brakage to your system

11:13 <Broc93> hello all
11:13 <hawmps> Hi
11:13 <Broc93> I'm a new Boinc user
11:14 <Broc93> I'm contributing to milkyway@home,. but I have a question
11:14 <Tank_Master> ok
11:14 <Broc93> the manager downloaded 4 workunits, and they expire tomorrow
11:14 <Broc93> but, 1 WU takes more than 10 hours
11:14 <Broc93> and I can't leave my pc running boinc 24h/24
11:15 <Tank_Master> it runs one WU per cpu core or 3 per ati card
11:15 <Broc93> so, is possible to download fewer workunits?
11:15 <Tank_Master> what processor do you have?
11:15 <Broc93> intel e2180
11:15 <Tank_Master> single core?
11:16 <Broc93> one of the first dual core
11:16 <Tank_Master> ahh, ok
11:16 <Tank_Master> well, one thing you can try is:
11:16 <Tank_Master> go to your profile on the project
11:17 <Tank_Master> go to Computing preferences
11:17 <Broc93> wait ;)
11:17 <Tank_Master> change your preferences to "connect ever 0 days" and "Maintain enough work for an additional .25 days"
11:18 <Broc93> yes, but....
11:19 <Broc93> even if it doesn't connect, I have to finish 4 wu at a time
11:19 <Broc93> in 3 days
11:19 <Broc93> and it's quite impossible for me ;)
11:19 <Tank_Master> with .25 it should only d/l 2 at a time
11:20 <Tank_Master> but, if you just simply cannot finish the work in time, there are other projects that have longer deadline dates
11:20 <Broc93> yes, the second option is better, I think ;)
11:20 <Broc93> an example?
11:20 <Tank_Master> or you can get a ati gpu, those can do the work in just a few minuets
11:21 <Broc93> na, my nvidia is nice xD
11:21 <Tank_Master> which nvidia is it?
11:22 <Broc93> 9500gt
11:22 <Tank_Master> collatz can run on that
11:22 <Tank_Master> same with seti and gpu grid
11:23 <Broc93> seti is unuseful :P
