Who else folds with Linux?

That's about it lol Who else here folds with Linux?

Even before my break I was folding (mostly) in Linux only. Besides in the workplace, I haven't used windows in years. I don't have a huge problem with it, not a Microsoft hater, I just don't like it.

So, anyone else running CPU/GPU folding?

Re: Who else folds with Linux?

.

After a period of Unstable SMP Folding in Windows, I switched to Linux (finally Ubuntu) to get stable and have (a bit) more output (PPD) .

That 's a while ago now, since I switched to GPU completely since GPU2 (Windows) allowed Folding with nVIDIA cards
I ran Linux SMP for about 2 years though !

Re: Who else folds with Linux?

I've been using Linux for almost 4 years, and have mainly used Ubuntu 64bit since version 6.04 for SMP folding. Things have really improved over the years and all my work is Linux based so Windows is not used very often these days.
