Error while computing: http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=99460786

I have Intel OpenCL runtime installed. It seems (->log) that exec selects wrong platform.
What happens with a newer (You're using 7.0.8, the current 7 one is 7.0.14) or older BOINC (6.12)?

1.01 is just the statically linked 1.00 CPU version. Your Catalyst driver is new enough that it should include libOpenCL. Is it actually not present on your system or in some weird place? What distro and how did you install the drivers?

As a point of information my HD 4770 (11.6, BOINC 6.12.34, winXP32, AMD64 3800+) has been very unhappy with the change to OpenCL. Host 179083 ( http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/show_host_detail.php?hostid=179083 ) gets OpenCL work, but promptly errors out with -1073740777 (unknown error). I detached and tried again with the same result.

I'm reluctant to install 12.1 as that may break Moo. It's my understanding that CAL support has been removed in this release. I'm open to suggestions.

Version 1.01 is running properly on Mac mini Core 2 Duo under Leopard and also on Mac mini Core Duo under Tiger. Units have finished, reported, and validated for both systems. Thanks again.

Which are the best drivers to use? I have tried 12.1 and 11.9 and keep getting BSODs with both. I had 10.5 before I think but that was too old and wouldn't work with the new app. I have a 5970 on Win7 64

Rick, from what I've seen, 12.1 doesn't break Moo, but it DOES break Collatz.

It does seem that as the various projects engage in a 'my update is better than yours' war, that it has become more difficult to work with multiple GPU projects. Sort of an Anti-BOINC philosophy. All in all, I think the jury is in on the alpha product Separation 1.00. We had a good run after the hardware upgrades were deployed at the beginning of the month. But now it seems that MW has found a new way to drop down on my GPU project list.

This workstation is running 7.08 (beta, but both MW and POEM seem to compel that change), and 12.1 on an XP workstation along with a 4850. No joy from MW -- either they don't have work, or the work doled out is in hold due to the high number of computation errors kicked up by folks attempting to get 1.0 to work with various hardware and software versions. I generated a ton of comp errors with an earlier version of BOINC and an earlier version of the ATI driver myself.

So, for now, I'll stay with older versions of ATI since I hate punishing the one long term reliable ATI GPU project out there (Collatz) due to trouble generated by other projects.

Edit,I reverted to ATI 11.10 - solved the Collatz problem - not getting work from MW right now, but it seems to me that is more the project side problem then end users there. I figure that MW folks will eventually figure out an application combination that 'regular people' can work with. I think the current 'try this, try that' *requirement* and report back, given the variables that are out there, is simply too onerous for those with other lives to lead.

For me, my GPU hardware is pretty much HD 4850 -- good price/performance and power requirement point for me. My OS environment is XP, Win7 32, and Win 7 64. The ATI drivers range from 11.4 to 11.10. The BM versions range from 6.10.58 to 6.12.34 to 7.0.08.

The 7.10.08 turned out to be a requirement for POEM ATI GPU support. That is one of the 'downsides' there (forcing a beta manager), though 7.0.08 isn't too bad. The other downside over in POEM land is that they went with CreditNew -- which results in strange (and typically low credit) results with limited standardization in terms of actual calculations performed. But that's a rant for another venue.

For now, it looks like MW will go in stasis for me -- attached but not able to get work.

which extension are you looking for?
My GPU (cayman) still does not have cl_khr_fp64 (promised by amd since launch, still not delivered to VLIW4). We're stuck on cl_amd_fp64. Can you please accept it in your app or it's not valid for you?
Thanks a lot!

It looks for cl_khr_fp64 or cl_amd_fp64, if you have a client new enough to report OpenCL information back. It looks like some of the 7.0.x aren't sending back the extensions properly.

Well it did for me -- HD 4850, Win XP, BM 7.0.08.

The thing is, right now we are solving for five variables (AMD video card, OS, BM, AMD driver, and GPU application). Makes it difficult to troubleshoot.

What I think we can state is that earlier (pre 1.0 deploy) these issues were seemingly quiet.

I figure I will things settle out perhaps waiting on more serial number 01a experiences to result in a version stability scenario. So I'll watch and wait -- and while that goes on, let Collatz, Moo, and to a lesser degree POEM run ATI GPU traffic.


Rick, from what I've seen, 12.1 doesn't break Moo, but it DOES break Collatz.


No, it does not.

You are absolutely right, and Matt and the Team are doing a wonderful job with the implementation of a very new technology. It's really impressive how many problem have been solved within a couple of hours.

CONGRATULATION, Matt & Team!

Radeon 38xx cards aren't supported with new stuff

Recently bought a new HD3850 AGP. Cost me quite a lot, also time & effort.
Not amused.
(FWIW I just received & processed a few 0.82 tasks. I think I'll keep this PC open for MW just to check.)

Message 52990 - Posted: 10 Feb 2012, 1:17:39 UTC - in response to Message 52895.  

Using Catalyst 11.3 it looks like. Try a newer driver. I am sort of aware of a few various crashes with different Catalyst versions on different GPUs. I think 11.3-4 and 11.10-11.12 are the most problematic versions; 12.1 seems to be working most consistently on everything. Around 11.3 the binary format stuff was introduced (which it says it supports) but it's probably crasher around then.


Upgraded from 11.3 to 11.9 (2-3% slower on mw w/ CAL, system more sluggish w/ other ATI apps too) and still getting
Exit status -1073740777 (0xffffffffc0000417) Unknown error number
when trying v1.00 OpenCL.

Thought 11.9 should be working for XP 32bit with HD5850?

Thanks Barry. Because I run both Moo and Collatz on this host I'll stand pat for now. I'm 100% Moo at the moment, but I'll try something different when I see something change at MW.

I'm the kinda guy that likes to push the do-not-push button (retired engineer...sigh), but I guess that I'll wait for the dust to settle here. Is anyone settling the dust?
