Posted 16 Feb 2014 by Rick A. Sponholz Post: When upgrading to 7.2.39 (it also happened upgrading to 7.2.38) from 7.2.33, yoyo@home no longer communicates with it project's site. WU uploads become abandoned, and no new work can be retrieved. reinstalling 7.2.33 makes this condition immediately disappear, and download/upload becomes normal. Already tried to reset project with no positive result. Also tried to detach project, and reattach, but then I could not reattach yoyo@home, until I downgraded to 7.2.33, then reattach worked perfectly. Not sure why, but thought I'd let you know. Occurred on all 5 of my Windows 7 desktops. Regards, Rick |

Posted 23 Nov 2013 by Rick A. Sponholz Post: The bundling of BOINC and VirtualBox installers applies to Windows only. Thanks for your reply Richard. I've already installed Vitualbox on my Linux machines, but I'm running climate@home, which requires BOINC 7.0.28 or above, hense my request. Thanks for the feedback though. Regards, Rick |

Posted 23 Nov 2013 by Rick A. Sponholz Post: David, Not sure if you have any contacts with the folks who manage LinuxMint, but they still have version 7.2.27 of BOINC in their App Store. If you can, (I've already requested via email) could you request they update their version, so I (we) can start using VirtualBox with BOINC? Thanks In Advance, Rick |

Posted 19 Apr 2010 by Rick A. Sponholz Post: Jord, I tried creating a cc_config.xml file like the one shown in this thread. Mine is shown below: <cc_config> <options> <use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus> </options> </cc_config> But something is still missing (I'm a novis) because I'm getting this message when starting BOINC: 4/19/2010 12:16:51 PM Missing start tag in cc_config.xml What am I missing? Thanks in advance for the help. Rick |

6.6.9 Windows Notes & Bugs
(Message 23315)
Posted 26 Feb 2009 by Rick A. Sponholz Post: Jord, BOINC 6.6.11 completed 1 GPUGRID CUDA work unit, and started another without a problem, and continues to supply my GPU with work. The next test is to see how BOINC 6.6.11 will finish all GPUGRID work, and switch to Seti CUDA work units. This switch should be in about 12 hours. I've started upgrading my other computers to 6.6.11, and will let you know if I encounter any problems. Rick |

6.6.9 Windows Notes & Bugs
(Message 23306)
Posted 26 Feb 2009 by Rick A. Sponholz Post: Jord, After 5 hours of running 6.6.11, I have not had a single instance of CUDA work units stopping. Next test will be when my GPUGRID work unit finishes in about 1.75 hours. Tested 6.6.11 on computer: #3 Intel 2 Quad Q6600@2.40GHz 1.98GB RAM GeForce 9600GT 512MB RAM Driver 6.14.11. 8206 Tomorrow, I'll install 6.6.11 on 9 of my 10 other computers (1 laptop is in the shop) as a double check. It looks like the BOINC programers did a great job! Rick |

6.6.9 Windows Notes & Bugs
(Message 23297)
Posted 25 Feb 2009 by Rick A. Sponholz Post: I am still experiencing stopping CUDA work units, but strangely only on one (Computer #3 below) CUDA capable machine. This happens to GGPUGrid, and SETI@Home work units on ALL (I’ve tested each one) versions of BOINC higher than 6.6.5. The work units show "waiting to run", but no CUDA work units are running. Exiting, and restarting BOINC, restarts a CUDA work unit, but within a few minutes no CUDA work units are running. This issue also occurred on computer #3 with video driver 6.14.11.8122. I had also experienced this issue on all 5 computers using BOINC 6.6.7, but only computer #3 continues to have a problem with BOINC 6.6.9. The issue above is different than the hanging SETI CUDA work unit problem well documented in other threads. I have 5 CUDA capable computers (Windows XP Service Pack 3) and I'm running SETI@ Home (CUDA 6.08 on BOINC 6.6.9) (also GPUGRID) on all 5, as well as World Community Grid, & Einstein@home. Below are the specs for my 5 CUDA capable computers: #1 Intel Core 2CPU 6600@2.40Ghz 1.98GB RAM GeForce 9600GT 512RAM Driver 6.14.11.8206 #2 Intel 2 Quad Q6600@2.40GHz 1.98GB RAM GeForce 9800GTX+ 512MB RAM Driver 6.14.11. 8206 #3 Intel 2 Quad Q6600@2.40GHz 1.98GB RAM GeForce 9600GT 512MB RAM Driver 6.14.11. 8206 #4 Intel 2 Quad Q9550@2.83GHz 1.98GB RAM GeForce 9600GT 512MB RAM Driver 6.14.11. 8206 #5 Intel 2 Quad Q9550@2.83GHz 3.25GB RAM GeForce 9800GT 1.024GB RAM Driver 6.14.11.8206 I have rolled back computer #3 to BOINC 6.6.5, and the problem has gone away.
