Posted 21 May 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: My personal internet access is down for a few days so I didn't tried, so I ask the question(s) directly : is the CUDA project operationnal or not ? Has anyone tried with a small graphic card like 8600M GS, 8600 GT, etc. ? |

Posted 21 May 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: I don't know if it's useful to say that, but a friend tested the optimization with a Radeon HD 4890, and it works very well. 5-8 seconds by workunit. |

Posted 1 Apr 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: That's good news. I can propose my computers for beta-test if you need it : - Quad Core Q6600 / Vista 32 bits (CPU only) and - Core2Duo E7200 / Vista 64 bits or Xp 32 bits / ATI HD 4850 512 Mo If you need to test something I'm here ^^ |

Posted 24 Feb 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: It worked great on Vista64, but on Xp32 I get always the same message : not requesting tasks ... the only solution I found was to suspend or delete the other projet (World Comm Grid). I think this is a priority problem (100 for each, theorically 50% each). Edit : I tried 100/900 (WCG/MW), but now it's running only WCG because of priority time... I try to suspend WCG. Edit 2 : With only MW project, I get some workunits and then : 24/02/2009 08:53:11 Milkyway@home Sending scheduler request: Requested by user. 24/02/2009 08:53:11 Milkyway@home Reporting 3 completed tasks, requesting new tasks 24/02/2009 08:53:16 Milkyway@home Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks |

Posted 21 Feb 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: Same message, again : not reporting or requesting tasks... I can't crunch today :( Note for Vista-64 users : I had to install a hotfix from ATI to get the CCC working. The driver is 8.2 PS : when GPU activity is 0%, I have an idle temp of 80°c and fan speed at 25%. If I use the CCC to set the fan speed at 50%, the temp decrease to 60°c :) But I have a question : if I sent the fan speed manually, may I have a problem when running the GPU at 100% ? If anyone can help with this "not reporting or requesting tasks" thing ... thank you ^^ |

Posted 21 Feb 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: Upgraded to GPU app version 0.19. Works fine on Vista 64, 4 Go RAM, HD 4850 512 Mo, Core2Duo. It's running 4 MW units (0.50 CPU each), and 1 World Community Grid unit. The two core are not working at 100%. In version 0.17 I was running two WCG units, and two MW units, and the 2 cores was at 100%... Little problem here : when I attached a new WCG project, the 4 MW stopped (the calculation seems to work, but the progress bar is freezed for the 4 units). A BOINC shutdown almost solved the problem : I have now 1 WCG unit and 2 MW units. Haaaa it changed again : 2 WCG units, and only 1 MW unit !!! :) |

Posted 20 Feb 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: I'm trying GPU app on a XP-32 bits. After I installed the latest BOINC 6.6.9 and Catalyst 9.1, the first 10 or 15 MW units went on error.

Posted 19 Feb 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: Another question (sorry if it's stupid ^^) : why the optimized application, specially the GPU app, are not available on the MW website with a big-red-flashing font ? :) I found this thread only by (extreme) luck, and I think that a lot of people don't know they can optimize their participation. But maybe it will be a charge to heavy for the server ? |

Posted 19 Feb 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: I just saw the new 32 bit version for ATI GPU. It's a good news, but is there any performance difference between 32 and 64 bits ? If the calculation times are the same, I will come back to my Xp 32 bits ^^ |

I still need to tidy it up a bit, but the latest Windows and Linus apps are there. Just some historical Linux to add. You're welcome ^^ |

Posted 18 Feb 2009 by Exar Kun [HoloNet] Post: It's my personal opinion, but I think that a full list of compatible GPUs might be great, because I can read here and there some questions about the compatibility of cards. Maybe the label "HD38x0 or HD48x0" isn't clear for all people. Maybe something like this : Compatible Cards : - ATI Radeon HD 3840 - ATI Radeon HD 4850 - ATI Radeon HD 4870 Cluster > do not be offensed by my next question : do you want a simple html/css code to present your different pages ? With some nice tables, colors, etc. ? |
