Message 15842 - Posted: 19 Mar 2010 | 22:41:20 UTC

I attached a new host to this project and after about 45 minutes of processing the WU, the project reset.

Platform: AMD Phenom x4 9600, 4 GB, Fedora 12, brand new EVGA GT240 GDDR5 Super Clocked edition, nVidia driver 195.36.15, client 6.10.17

The WU was progressing at a rate that it should have completed in about 11 - 12 hours. With the new driver, the GPU was running in performance mode 2 (550,1800). This happened several times prior but I thought it because the older nVidia drivers wouldn't support the GT240 at performance mode 2 in Linux as of yet. Also of interest, my account shows the WU still in progress even though it was detached 4 hours ago. I am not running the client on local preferences but those on the project website. Could there be something wrong in my web preferences or is this a possible project confidence issue? Any help greatly appreciated. Below are the client messages:

Please check your BAM account to make sure that you selected GPUGRID as one of the projects for this host (Host list - select host - verify attach box for GPUGRID is checked). In this case it most likely is not checked, resulting in a BAM ordered detaching.

Kind regards

Alain

I also had resettings shuting down some of my GPUGRID work units and am sure your solution will solve my problem. Thanks so much !
