Make sure to add seti to your userbootscript so it starts up automatically.
# Userbootscript
cd /boot/home/setiathome/
setiathome -graphics &
cd /boot/home/
#end userbootscript

This is one area of the team's endeavors we have not addressed lately. There is a TeamBeOS on YahooGroups, but it is a pretty slow message board, sometimes weeks go by without a message being posted.
I have it on good authority that a message has been sent to invite them to join us here on TBJ. Hopefully we will be joined by a few of the members of the Seti team soon.
I have been watching the Seti team for a couple of weeks now, though they have a steady out put (somewhere in the mid to upper 200's/day) the team is slowly losing ground to faster teams coming up from behind. It is a shame as I seem to remember the team being in the top 30/40 (?) at one point in time. Now we will be luck to hold a top 100 spot by the time Seti ends.
I have several Seti accounts (thought one had to have a different account for each machine at one time ) so when I can find, remember the passwords will move them over to Team BeOS, should help the team to hold position for the short term and may even start doing a few units before it is over.

Will look forward to have you "fully cranking" for TeamBeOS' Seti effort. Just one question... "by the time Seti ends"? When will that be?

I hope so too. I would be curious what the SETI fans think about the new project and the recent cheating discussions. I have a feeling that if the SETI team does clean house of all cheaters when the project is complete that TeamBeoS might just climb 10-20 spots in the rankings. Just a hunch
When I was crunching for TeamBeOS SETI in late 1999, the team was ranked 16th! Of course this was when BeOS users still thought we would get BONE and OpenGL....

I agree, we may see a move in the upward direction, if they Seti Admins have the time and inclination to purge thier accounts from the database. I will have to give them thier due though, they seem to be taking it serious for a change and removing accounts that are obviously "cheating" with outragous daily totals.

I remember the team being up high in the ranks, sad really that people lost interest. I admit losing interest in Seti after I discovered Folding@Home and Genome@Home nd have not really done any workunits on a regular basis since that time. Now that we know it will end soon I have a goal I would like to reach before that time arrives. So will be adding it to my project list again.

That is an amazing amount of work in a short period of time!
I am glad you took the time to visit us here on TBJ. I do hope more of the members of the Seti team will join us. We have alot of things planned to help increase the visiblity of the various BeOS teams, build a better more unified community for the team. I'm sure there are a lot of Seti members that could contribute a great deal information and expertise to our discussions on distributed computing, BeOS and the team.
