Just out of curiousity, on the two boxes you have, did you run the same version of the client? I just downloaded the stable version (FAH502-Linux.exe) and have been running it in screen for the last hour or so. So far I cannot see the same behaviour you are describing. One thing I noticed, for some reason the one I am running is loading FahCore_82, while yours load 78.... Anyway, did you install foldingathome through portage? What is the command you are using to start the process? Try downloading the client directly from the Stanford website, put it in a new directory, cd to that directory, and issue screen ./FAH502-Linux.exe and see if the problem persists.
