I apologize for the length, but trying to give you the requested information.

As per your request Before Posting to here:

Not receiving new projects from Seti@home on my HOME computer which had been doing rather well.

Am receiving projects on other computers I recently installed BOINC on to keep rolling in Seti.

Am getting projects for WCG on computer(s).

This is a much more efficient computer and was really on a roll with the GPU crunching. Frustrated.


Problem HOST:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=7032025

History of HOST, applications and versions:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/host_app_versions.php?hostid=7032025

=========================
Suspended work on all projects to update BOINC and the GPU driver.

Ran Queue out (since some SETI projects were going to miss deadline) and also updated ATI Drivers to latest:

Driver Packaging Version 13.251-131206a-166389C-ATI
Catalyst Version 13.12
OpenGL Version 6.14.10.12618
AMD Catalyst Control Center Version 2013.1206.1603.28764

==============================

Projects:
Seti@home (Downloading to other computers that I recently added)
-- Prior was running Astropulse, Any graphics work, and cranking along ....
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/host_app_versions.php?hostid=7032025

Results page:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/results.php?userid=9895279

WCG
-- Mapping Cancer Markers 7.28
-- The Clean Energy Project - Phase 2 6.40

=================

Have Project weight of 500 on Seti and 100 on WCG
(Since I find that WCG most of the time with its shorter due dates does not play nice with other projects). This is an attempt to solve that problem.

=================
This will make this terribly long, but here are selections from the event log:

You're upgraded to a driver where the is no CAL support for Bonaire GPUs, there are other Bonaire hosts out there with the same problem at Setiathome,
I suppose i could badger Eric to remove the CAL driver requirements for the OpenCL apps as the Setiathome ATI OpenCL apps work fine without CAL support being there,

In the meantime you could download the Lunatics installer, and install the Optimised apps, having the apps installed as anonymous platform bypasses the CAL requirement, and you'd get faster CPU apps as well,
