By the way, JG, the system you got wasn't the Gateway special from BB by any chance, was it? One of my coworkers picked that up this weekend. He was going to build out his own and had more money in it from Tiger than he spent for the system, monitor, & scanner/printer from BB. Looks like one heck of a deal!
Well, I think I'm about to give up on this KNOPPIX box. I don't have enough room with my setup to keep it nearby the monitor, but I find that I need to keep a close eye on it. I'm not sure if it is related to its previous life or not, but I've come to find the machine unresponsive, with a black screen. The last time I rebooted it and started Folding again, it completed one percent, then hung/went away. I started Samba so I can keep an eye on it remotely, but I think if it is hung, the share will be gone and I'll have my proof that it's not a long-term box.
Also, it's rather depressing to look at the stats from InCrease on the Athlon compared to the Mac Pro: 1.158 points per hour for the Linux Client compared to 45 pph x2 for the SMP clients.
