V10/11 of modified SETI MB CUDA + opt AP package for full multi-GPU+CPU use

Richard Haselgrove:
I believe Raistmer's development system requires drivers 180.xx and above, but the stock apps work with 179.xx drivers

xbill:
Bummer, nvidia only offers 179 for laptops. Ok, i will try to install the regular drivers (inf modding as necessary ;D) and test again this evening when my cache is empty.
Thanks for the tip Richard!

rpont:
Am I understanding things correctly about the VLAR in that V10 throws them away?

If that is the case it seems a shame since my system can complete them in about 100 minutes, 4 times as long as non VLAR ones. Again if it is the case would it be possible to make killing them optional?

I did ssome more tests after i got nvidia drivers 182.06 installed (do not trust the premodded inf files from laptopvideo2go...do it yourself if you have to >:()
I set up a standalone test with the short WU's
Using V10: executing MB_6.08_mod_CUDA_V10.exe works as expected:

But starting the *GPU_CPU_team_V10.exe results in an application error popup from windows, no further output on the commandline, no stderr.txt. eventvwr is not helpful either: Fehlerhafte Anwendung AK_v8b_win_SSSE3x_GPU_CPU_team_V10.exe, Version 0.0.0.0, Zeitstempel 0x49a516a3, fehlerhaftes Modul AK_v8b_win_SSSE3x_GPU_CPU_team_V10.exe, Version 0.0.0.0, Zeitstempel 0x49a516a3, Ausnahmecode 0xc000000d, Fehleroffset 0x000b2d9e, Prozess-ID 0xbf8, Anwendungsstartzeit 01c998de0f35a5cf. (sorry, german locale...)
So errorcode 0xc000000d is invalid argument, that is all i can read without installing IDApro

Guess i'll try V9 for now, that seems to run without errors in standalone, hopefully it will run under BOINC as well.

I could not download any driver: "We have recognized that you are attempting to directly link to our drivers." *BS* i did not filter the referer...i could download the premodded infs, but they did not work with nvidias stock drivers because they reference some files that are not contained in nvidias distribution.
