Desperately trying to get work here for my R9-280X (which I bought with mw in mind according to its dp perfs) on this machine http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/show_host_detail.php?hostid=637333 running Ubuntu 15.04 64bits. Boinc start log:

Other projects tested and ok (collatz, moo!, einstein, poem...) the opencl apps are working
Seems some work is there at least for a few wu; how can I solve this? thanks

Or, what's wrong with this setup? :)

Is there any way to get work for my R9 290X from this project? Id like to do work at least while the current team challenge is going on here.

288larsson, would you please mind running again this Einstein test with the last drivers to check whether there's has been any improvement?

Another question, was the card in quiet or uber mode during the test?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I was wondering if you could test out your R9-290x with running three Einstein BRP5 tasks (0.33 utilization factor) and post what the run time is per task? If you could run a batch of GPU tasks without any other CPU tasks running that would be great.

Thanks,

Jeroen

Hi, any news on your experience with this card in MW or other distributed computing projects?

Thanks

Hi can not get any work.
2013-10-25 17:50:26 | Milkyway @ Home | Message from server: ATI R600 GPU (R38xx) does not support OpenCL

Which computer is giving that error?

There are still a few more things I want to take care of before actual release:
http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/download/beta/separation_0.96/

I'm trying to run the cuda_opencl app on my 6970 just for comparison.

I used the app_info described here and downloaded the app from the link posted, but boinc says

Hmmm...slower than my 4850. What's it like at Collatz?

I posted new applications on Milkyway@Home version 3, I only have a GTX 285 so I am not able to test whether it works or not.
