I have my preferences set to all projects, but when I update the project, nothing downloads and I always get "communication deferred". Any suggestions?

Right now we are out of work units. New ones should be comming today or tomorrow.

Maybe that's the reason?

Well there are plenty of CPU WU's which need to be crunched as well. If you have set to use and accept CPU work, you should get those.
If you have other CPU work running and some more in the queue, then you will probably not get any, before queue is (almost) empty.

I once again cannot get long WU's , though the server status says 279 short and more than 1000 longs are available I can only get shorts all the time. My setup is to only get longs and to allow other wu's if no longs are available. The message in the log says "Di 15 Apr 2014 14:39:33 CEST | GPUGRID | No tasks are available for Long runs (8-12 hours on fastest card)"
Something is wrong there.
Regards

ps.: I'm on Ubutu 12.04 with a GFTX750Ti and I got longs before they run out a couple of days ago.

'Server Status' is on a webpage, not a direct link to the actual number, it is updated on a regular basis, most projects do it about once an hour, some more often, some less often. What I am saying is you can't go by what you see as it isn't always precise and exact.

Thanks Mikey,
I appreciate your comment. However, at a certain point, when you've seen the status frequently for a couple of days and also get that regular "no longs are available" one gets a pretty reliable picture, probably its no WU's for Linux only as others not seem to have such issues. Anyway, thanks again, I might check this project later again.

Peter,

Are you using a 32 bit Linux? GPUGrid supports only 64 bit Linux.

Thank you Retvari,
I'm on 64 bit. I think I just should not look so much after long WU's, its ok to crunch short ones too (these I get always, just no longs anymore).
