Yellow_Horror:
BOINC v.6.6.12 just download some "setiathome_enhanced 6.3" tasks to feed my CPU. It fall into "high priority" mode afterward so i can't check now if it can download 6.8 tasks correctly to feed the GPU (there are some "application-empty GPU WU" left to do from the previous version of BOINC).

Claggy:

If you put <sched_ops>1</sched_ops> in a cc_config.xml file you can see what type of work request you get, eithier CPU or GPU,
With Boinc 6.6.12 CPU work requests works do work, But GPU work requests didn't, you just got a 24hour backoff, but Seti Main now has a new scheduler,
so GPU requests might work now, on Boinc 6.6.14 if the CPU tasks are in "high priority", it'll still do a GPU request to get Cuda work, 6.6.12 might be the same.

Yellow_Horror:
"High priority" state is cleared for now. So i experiment to increase my "additional work buffer" step by step. First, my BOINC gets few 6.3 WUs with each increase, just as i suppose. But at the last step (to 8.8 days) it suddenly gets twenty 6.3 WUs then one additional 6.8 (cuda) WU. That outcome seems strange to me. Let see how it will be continued.

P.S. It seems that 6.6.12 gets GPU work when asking for GPU work only. Asking for CPU+GPU work it gets CPU work only. Will try 6.6.14 later today.
