WinPFGW Version 3.0.0 fails to find 63*2^1070449+1 a factor of any xGF, whether using the -a1 switch or not. [i.e. "-gxo" and "-gxo -a1"] 63*2^1070449+1 is...
-a does not work in the build that George posted. I did fix -a (supposedly) in a build that I have, but it isn't finding the xGFs either. I need to look into...
-a now works: pfgw -a1 -gxo -q"63*2^1070449+1" PFGW Version 3.0.0 for Windows [FFT v25.10] 63*2^1070449+1 is a Factor of xGF(1070447,7,4)!!!! (7330.773000...
I have posted the latest distribution of PFGW at http://openpfgw.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/openpfgw/pfgw_win_1.3_20090620.zip?view=log From the Release Notes:...
I am having some difficulty the Mac build as it is failing some tests. I'm not certain where the problem is yet. This problem is specific to the Mac build...
I'm not sure if this is a problem with recent PFGW or windows however I have noticed a strange behaviour concerning priority/affinity settings of recent PFGW. ...
... There are two aspects of setting priority in Windows and you have run into the classic case of what switch affects which setting. There is a concept of...
Does anyone have any cases for small k*2^n+1 numbers that fail to find xGF factors in PFGW when not using the -a switch? I have one, but it is over one...
Thanks to some enhancements from George and myself you can see that the next release of PFGW will not require the -a switch for GFN factoring. You will also...
Does anyone use PFGW server, which is bundled with PFGW? I would like to eventually obsolete this application. I think that I can get PRPNet to do most of...
I have posted the latest Windows and MacIntel distributions at this link: http://openpfgw.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/openpfgw/pfgw_win_3.1_20090708.zip ...
... Thanks, Mark and George, for your dedicated work. It is a great thing that you are rejuvenating OpenPFGW. For myself, I await a linux executable, which I...
... This link didn't work for me. You gave me (off-list) one that did - maybe you would like to publish that one here? ... I think this is a REALLY BAD idea....
... I'll try to fix the one I already created before I post a different one. ... I respectfully disagree. Many people who run PFGW do not want it to run at...
... Obviously I can live with it, using Task Manager or whatever to alter the priority. I defer to the majority wish, whatever that is. One wrinkle, though. On...
... That is if you are running different versions. If all are the same version, then they would all take 80%. I think that the normal thing would be people...
... It's not relevant /what/ the other 4 tasks are, from the point of view of someone trying to even-out a mix of taks on a machine. My point was that even...
... You can thank M$ for the behavior of tasks and priority. *nix is so much simpler. In the Windows world, there are two components to priority. The first...
... Steven Harvey asked me to test a linux executable, but it broke, on my second test, even with the -a2 switch: $ pfgwlin -l -a2 -q"2*3^599983-1" PFGW...
... I believe that George reads this group. I cc'd him on my post. George will definitely spend some time investigating this one. He has addressed other...
Hi Mark, ... Try the attached gwnum.c. It seems gwsquare_carefully wasn't as careful as it should be. Regards, George P.S. I'll update the source2512.zip...
You can d/l Windows, MacIntel, and Linux versions from these links: http://openpfgw.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/openpfgw/pfgw_win_3.2_20090725.zip?view=log ...
... I spoke too soon. The linux version hangs up on me after the PRP test has completed its cycles. This is OK: $ pfgwlin -q"2*3^147488-1" PFGW Version...
