Before I upgraded I was getting Projects with no issue, now after the upgrade I cannot seem to get any new projects.
Computers are 576022 foldit64 GPU GTX 650Ti and
576103 32crunchers 32crunchers GPU GTX 660 Ti.
Other CPU Projects are working fine.
I tested my 561866 DarkTitan computer and it pulls projects fine.
Anyone else seeing this?

I was able to download and run a GPUGRID Project.
Bummer "Error while computing" Going to run one more to test.

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS seems to not be ready for BOINC GPU Crunching.

Yes, I've had the same problem on two of my crunchers, both of them failed to recognize my GPUs after upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04. I've had to stop running Milkyway and go to Einstein as it works fine with either 12, 13 or 14 versions of Linux. Seems Milkyway needs to fix something to make it compatible with 14.04 or 14.04 needs to change, don't know and don't care, just want to crunch without having to mess with software drivers.

Something must have been corrupted in your GPU crunching configuration during the upgrade. I am running Ubuntu 14.04 with a GTX 660ti and a GTX 770. It is crunching Milkyway, GPUGRID and POEM GPU tasks just fine. The difference may be that my installation is a fresh install.

You might try to uninstall and reinstall all of your BOINC and GPU software. If that does not get you going, you may need to do a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04.

Hope that helps.
