Guess we'll find out, won't we... My comps run several projects, so they'll catch up on the missed MW WUs later. ID: 29946 · Rating: 0 · rate: /

Something about getting backed by IBM I suppose ... The only depressing thing is that if you are ATI heavy MW is still the only port for work (unless I missed something elsewhere) ... On the CUDA side I still think that GPU Grid is the best place (stablest application and rarely work outages; downside is that you have to have a pretty good card) ... but that is just me ...

I just managed to get it started and running ... :) I had to make the ATI change to force the use of the ATI GPU, but, 6% done and only time will tell if it works. {edit - add} The good news is that maybe I can keep the ATI card humming even if Collatz is not the best choice ... the point is to keep the processors humming ... and that is the whole point ... :) ID: 29953 · Rating: 0 · rate: /

But the server statement has been like this for hours. Any sign the system will restart anytime soon? Travis? Go away, I was asleep ID: 29977 · Rating: 0 · rate: /

All the WUs uploaded from my comps after that are still pending. Guess the process creating WUs stopped as a result of the stopped validator or something like tha.t. Labbies 6 WUS look to me like some of the always present few resents which somehow still get resent. We'll find out sooner or later but ofcourse we prefer to hear from Travis or see WUs flowing again sooner rather than later :). ID: 29979 · Rating: 0 · rate: /

Got a couple more not too long ago that were aborted by someone. And the funny thing is, I've had three on one machine go thru and validate. Looks strange (for MW) to have a few completed WUs in the middle of a bunch of pendings. HostID 23774 Calm Chaos Forum...Join Calm Chaos Now ID: 29980 · Rating: 0 · rate: /
