To be clear, nvidia users need to enable both foldingathome.service and foldingathome-nvidia.service.

There's a way to avoid '--skipinteg', changing the last (32bit) md5sum to the 64bit md5sum. Worked as a charm. :-) I'm not sure if this works for i686 people flawlessly, but my pkgbuild is here: http://paste.archlinux-br.org/2013 Thank you.

Edit PKGBUILD and change i686 to x86_64 and 32bit to 64bit or vise versa and build with makepkg --skipinteg I don't know exactly what is wrong with the PKGBUILD, but this seems to work.

Even using a downloaded tarball from Stanford: ==> Continue building foldingathome-v7 ? [Y/n] ==> ------------------------------------------ ==> ==> Building and installing package ==> ERROR: An unknown error has occurred. Exiting... /usr/lib/yaourt/pkgbuild.sh: line 200: 18333 User defined signal 1 PKGDEST="$YPKGDEST" makepkg "${MAKEPKG_ARG[@]}" -s -f -p ./PKGBUILD ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build foldingathome-v7.

If makepkg complains about a ssl certificate error, please manually download the package from Stanford and try again.

Added i686 support

Here is my version of foldingathome daemon script: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/317657/ See my last comment on foldingathome-smp ( http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11964 ) to know why.

Can you make the folding@home daemon depend on the nscd daemon? This will save people who forget to load nscd first (or want to load f@h in the background). (Add "ck_daemon nscd && /etc/rc.d/nscd start" to the top of /etc/rc.d/foldingathome)

Yes the instructions after the end of install messed me up for a while too - please remove them or just add a pointer to the wiki.

Marcel_K commented on 2010-04-24 19:43 (UTC)

Why do you recommend "Please cd to /opt/fah/ and execute ./fah6 -smp -configonly" in post_install()? This is inconsistent with the Wiki (causing confusion, at least to me) and installs/configures fah as root, which is discouraged. Explaining or at least pointing to the post-install steps in the Wiki is way better, IMHO, as those explain what's needed for running fah as another user.
