New distributed.net RC5/OGR clients
« on: August 07, 2002, 06:00:05 AM »
The v2.8019-473 distributed.net RC5/OGR clients for AmigaOS (and other platforms) were made available for pre-release today.

Documented relevant changes since v2.8018.472 for AmigaOS:
- chg: all: increased buff-in.* limit to 2000 packets
- fix: all: processed RC5 random blocks even if RC5 was disabled
- fix: amigaos: fixed problems with font requester opening in GUI prefs window when clicking other gadgets
- imp: amigaos: can be shutdown by pressing escape key in GUI

For more information on RC5 and OGR please visit the Amiga Team Effort website.  Note: Thomas is currently on holiday which is why the new clients aren't mentioned there yet.

Argh, seems he rushed through my submission of user data (the amigaone and the rs6k are missing, and there's a </td></tr> too few as well) because he's on vacation. That's too bad...

I was indeed the first to submit data from the A1  :-D

Edited because amiga.org allows html. <> is bad, then ;-)
Oh, and preview is equally bad then...

Interesting :-)  Which client version are you using on the A1?  I was going to ask about the benchmarks, but IIRC the LinuxPPC version is comparitively ancient.  Then again, rc5 speed is probably no faster in the newer clients - ogr is where the main speedups are.

I was going to update the LinuxPPC client myself, but I'm having trouble getting LinuxAPUS to work with my serial card, so I can't access the cvs :-(
