Ok, this is annoying me to no end. I decided what the hell, I could run Seti@home on my nice 3.06ghz Hyper-threaded CPU and do it in my favorite OS. Well I can get it working in a terminal, but what I'd really like to get working is the applet for Gnome 2.2.
I'm running the latest version that is in Debian unstable (2.1.3-3) but I can't seem to configure it right or something. Everytime I tell it to run from my home directory and then try to start it, it says "Trying to start the seti@home client....." and it just sits there, and does nothing. Even when I put in the path of the setiathome client (/usr/bin) then it'll say "Couldn't get lock file. This is probably because another instance of SETI@home is running in this directory. Each instance of SETI@home must run in a seperate directory." Tried putting the check mark in "Use seti@home exe in a different directory" and put /home/leech but it just goes back to saying "trying to sart the seti@home client...." Lousy thing.....
