Yes, SETI is down. However, It is a "controlled outage" and is in the middle of three days worth of down time.
I was just on their site and it is being hoped, that it all should be up & running tomorrow or tomorrow night again.
For the first and biggest of the Boinc Projects it sure is down alot lately!
I am running an Astropulse WU on my Linux box and a SETI unit on my Solaris guest OS. The SETI admins are to be admired for what they do on donated hardware.

Greetings Mikey,
It hasn't been down since some time yesterday. They were doing a re-striping of the RAID, on Oscar if I remember correctly. It has finished. Most of the servers on the status page are green too.
I have left the gate open and am maintaining a 3 or 4 day cache of WUs (don't remember which, off hand). I'm on day 5 and a 1/2 on my i7's uptime. Woohoo! :)
Might this be the problem behind your jumping mouse when squished through your KVM box?

IS there a place to set the input buffer length [in Linux] for the mouse? Apparently this cures it in Windows 7 and Vista - where changing from input buffer length of <100 to 200-ish fixes it..
... Is the KVM using a restrictive buffer size for the PS2 which then chops up or loses data?...

What's the latest for your adventures?
Hope you had a good break,

Greetings Martin,
... and Happy New Year! :)
I no longer have the jumping cursor problem, nor the jumping back a page or 2 on any website, automatically. I'm not sure what I did that eliminated that problem, but I won't look a gift horse in the mouth. ;) I eliminated the use of the KVM. I have a separate keyboard, mouse and monitor for each PC. The monitor for the Linux PC sits on top of my i7 case. :) I'll look into the mouse input buffer thingy. ;)
The i7 has been running quite well, despite the fact that I still get that artifact when booting. I'm still running SETI. I got my RAC up from just over 300 to over 3.3K. I started running on 6 cores about a week ago. I'll go to all 8 in another week or so.
I'm still planning on upgrading Windoze to Win7 Pro 64 bit. I'm also going to switch to an ATI video card.
My longest uptime, I believe, was 13 days. We had a couple power outages and I had several Windows updates requiring re-boot. I also switched my anti-virus from AntiVir to Avast (ye mateys!). It, too, required a re-boot, obviously. ;)
That's about it for now. I'll let you know how the upgrades go and whether I'll go with Einstein again or not. I'm still leery about that...
