My friend is running SUSE. He needs to be able to find the directory the client is installed in. And he needs to figure out how to change the config for his Folding username.

Neither of us know much about Linux, so help would be appreciated.

It basically works just like the console version for win32. Whatever directory you ran the exe in when you downloaded it is where it lives. It creates the work directory there and the config files. You can change the config using the same -config option.

This is as I figured it. But my friend can't seem to find the directory. We know it folds, cuz we can see it's using 99% of the cpu cycles, but we can't locate the client.

from the command line type the following commands:

>cd /
>locate FAH

once you've found the folder you can
>ps -aux | grep FAH
to locate the PID
then
> kill -9 PID
to terminate the process

then change your config with
>./FAH3console -config
