RC5Crack/GUI/!!Welcome

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Welcome to the DCTI Distributed Computing Client v2.7 for RISC OS.
------------------------------------------------------------------

This program allows you to become a part of the biggest computer in the
world - distributed.net

The client was ported by Chris Berry (cberry@acorn.com) and Kevin Bracey
(kbracey@acorn.co.uk) with lots of code optimisations by Steve Lee
(steve@banoffee.demon.co.uk), and suggestions by various others. Despite our
email address, the client has nothing to do with Acorn, and is not supported
by them.

For the main documentation, read the RC5DES application's help file. You
will require StrongHelp 2 for RISC OS GUI specific help.

This GUI client is implemented as a controlling shell running a CLI-based
client as a subtask in a task window. The CLI-based client (the rc5des
binary inside !RC5DES) is perfectly standard, and can be invoked manually
if desired (for example to make !Alarm schedule an update at a certain
time every day).

Filenames specified in the configuration file or on the rc5des command line
are relative to the location of the rc5des binary - it does not rely on the
currently selected directory, nor on the setting of RC5DES$Dir.


Quick installation instructions
-------------------------------

Put the !RC5DES application somewhere ($.Apps, $.Utilities, whatever).
Double-click on it, and the configuration dialogue box will come up.
Fill in your e-mail address. Click on Startup, and turn on "Autolaunch
client". Change any other settings you need to, then click on Save. The
client should start running automatically, and should reload when you
reboot.


Upgrading from a CLI-based client
---------------------------------

Just move your buff-*/* files into !RC5DES. It is suggested that you
don't copy your ini file over - rechoose any settings via the dialogue
box.


Upgrading from a previous GUI client
------------------------------------

Just copy the new !RC5DES on top of your current !RC5DES.


Faster, Faster!
---------------

If you're really desperate to improve your keyrate, you might like to try
some of the following:

1) Increase the keys per timeslice setting. Not too much though, or the
   client will take far too long to respond to shutdown requests.

2) *RMKill SoundDMA

   The SoundDMA module has to do a fair amount of work, and can cut the
   keyrate by a few percent.

3) Unplug your network cable. A high amount of network traffic can cause a
   lot of interrupts, which can grind away a few more percent of your
   keyrate. If you're going to do this, you'd be advised to pass set the
   client connection type to "Offline always". This will stop it from trying
   to access the network. Obviously, you should ensure you have big, full
   buffers.

4) Switch to a screen mode with a lower refresh rate - the task window
   (as of RISC OS 3.7, at least) will poll less often.

5) Run the CLI-based client outside the desktop (just change into the !RC5DES
   directory and run "rc5des").

6) If you're really serious, you could try overclocking your CPU. This can
   cause it to die, though, so only do it if you are sure that you know
   what you are doing. There are resources available on the internet that'll
   tell you how to do it, but since I can't recommend this technique, (I don't
   want you suing me!) I'll leave it up to you to find them.

7) Install the client on more machines. This is a good way of improving your
   keyrate, but can be costly 8-)

   If you are installing the client in a school or office, be sure to check
   with the owner of the machine. It's not worth losing your job / getting
   kicked out of school over.


Teaming up
----------

The day after you check in your first block, your name should appear in the
stats listing at http://rc5stats.distributed.net/

If you and a gang of mates want to club together to show a united force, you
can join (and even create) teams. Your combined efforts will then appear in
the teams listings.

At the time of writing, there are a couple of thousand teams... some more
active than others. If you want to show support for the RISC OS and ARM
processors, you could do worse than joining the "ant.org Cambridge Cracking
Collective" (team 553). To learn more about the team, visit
