Hi there!

I have been running Seti@home for an year or so...
First things first!
Have you registered yourself at Seti@home?
Have you downloaded the last version?
Are you using the same e-mail (the one you've registered with) to run
seti?

You should run it as a normal user! Have you installed the software on
your Home directory?

Has anyone gotten the Seti client to run in Linux?  Every time I try to
set up the account I get an Illegal Instruction error when I tell the
program where the computer is located (it doesn't matter which option I
choose.  All four options return this error), or if I try to log in to
my present account, I get the same error when I input my e-mail
address.  All help appreciated, Dennis in Victoria

When I first registered at Seti (on line) I made a mistake!
I could NOT run seti... I can't remember the messages!
I was trying to run it with 'that' email... no way (only as root!)
But then I downloaded again and submited the 'correct' email!
From then on, no problems!

That's why I thought It could be a 'email'  problem, just like my
situation on year ago!

But as I've seen on another msg...maybe your problem is with the tar file!
I got and tar.gz. also!

ps:I meant 'setup an account' which I made mistake and had to set another
one!

Not sure what you mean register.  If you mean set up an account, or log into
an existing account, this is where I am running into problems, as I explained
in my note.
 Have you downloaded the last version?
Yes.

As I said, this is where the problem is.

That's why I mentioned 'register' (set an account up), because that's
exactly what happened to me!

I just started it all over from the beginning!

 You should run it as a normal user! Have you installed the software on
 your Home directory?
Well, I'm sure not going to install it as root.

You'd amazed how many friends I have that run seti@home as root!
Never hurts to say! I hope! ;-)
