Hmm, may I remind you I've been bash programming for about... ~2 weeks or so...

So what's a shebang line? Sounds kinky.

Ah, I've heard it as hash bang before. Thanks for the wiki!

Well, I decided to look over the script and I heavily modified it.

CHANGE LIST:

1. The script now installs FAH6.02 (from the website, it is both a x64 and x86 installer)
2. The script checks whether or not it's run in a terminal and is run as a non-root user (both are needed to make sure it works correctly)
3. Added the shebang

TODO:

1. Add a check to see if there is a newer, non-beta release

Enjoy!

isn't there a way you can make this for the GPU client as well?
smp client is pretty easy to install but the GPU client is hell
tried it once, failed hard
that's the only thing that's keeping me from going Linux full-time

I've never tried it. It does sound involved though. Hmm, maybe when I get some free tiem I'll try it.

From what I've seen on the official F@H website, the Linux version only works on the CPU. I don't think it'll be to hard to modify it to work on separate GPU's. I'm going to email the people at F@H to see their input.

EDIT: You can do GPU work on Linux, you just need to use the windows GPU client via wine. Here is the wiki page

Error10 has a "How-To" around here somewhere.

Unfortunately, I believe he has left us forever...

Well, I'm fiddling with the code some more. I've so far idiot-proofed execution (I.E. you don't need to run it in the terminal, it opens one). The only problem with that is I'm not sure what Terminal Emulator Arch uses (currently, the script is using xterm). I'm also working on adding a GTK+ GUI for S&G's (because I would like to start coding GTK+ GUI's). There have been a couple of more tweaks, but I'm working on fixing a bug that I introduced...

Hopefully, I can release qFAH (quickly Fold@Home) 0.3 soon.

Cheers!
