CPDN trickles every 10802 timesteps. The first thing to do is to find out how far the model has got. To do this you need to open the graphics window [work tab, right click on the CPDN WU]. In the graphics screen you will see an entry showing the timestep reached.

If it has not yet reached timestep 10802 that would explain the lack of a trickle. 950 MHz is at the lower end of capabilities for CPDN, so it will take a fair time. You can help things by not using the graphics except when you are looking at them (not even the screensaver) and not leaving the BOINC window open on the work or disk tabs.

If you have passed the 10802 point, then it could be a communication problem. Look in the FAQ and see if this helps. If not ask again.
