Hi folks, I installed the most current setiathome package via apt-get also making sure I had all the upgrades for woody installed. I'm running it on a Sun UltraSparc2. Setiathome starts out ok and downloads the data files but as soon as it begins processing, the machine freezes up and I have to cycle power to regain control. Any ideas?
Clearly a government consipracy to keep you from finding out about our visitors from other worlds. :) Nothing should freeze the machine like that. I assume Stop-A doesn't work either? Sounds like either a hardware or kernel problem. If you have another Ultra2, you might try putting the disk in the other machine to rule out hardware. Otherwise, you can try another kernel version to see if that helps out any. Steve dunham@cse.msu.edu
