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

<< < (58/80) > >>

Okay, the problem is this: I only want to use the optimized apps at my GPU. On the CPU should run Einstein@home. I am using BOINC-Manager 6.6.20. Down loaded and installed the latest package. But if I get an WU for SETI the Manager isnīt run it on the GPU, I have only 2 active tasks. Is there something that I can do?

This is what Boinc sees:
"31.03.2009 21:18:16      CUDA device: GeForce GTX 295 (driver version 18208, CUDA version 1.3, 896MB, est. 106GFLOPS)", which is correct, as there is only one physical card in system - with two GPU cores.

I use Raistmer's_opt_pack_V10a_x64_SSSE3_MB_CPU_GPU_team, as as said earlier - I've set the value to 2 in "number_of_GPUs" file.

you have to disable SLI for CUDA to see both GPUs as "independent" GPU's...

I think, I said wrong. I have a C2D and 1 GPU for crunching. The GPU should do SETI with the optimized app and the 2 CPUs Einstein.

I don't think boinc is smart enough for this... if it sees a unused core (cpu or gpu) and is has a seti task, it can give it to CPU as well. And then your einstain comes, and there is no free cpu core, and it waits for it....

Have you tried latest development 6.6.20? Maybe this one is smart enough?

You just need a Cuda only app_info, Raistmer's V10/V11 app can be run standalone without the team part.

Here's a Cuda only app info using Raistmer's V11 app, you'll need to put in your own GPU flops figure, but Multiply it by 0.2 first, get it from the Boinc messages log and Don't forget all the extra zeroes seeing as its in gigaflops.
