Ok, the server just let me have a workunit. They take 17-22 hours each (despite the large number of shaders on my card) so it'll be a while before I'm 'redeemed' but so far it's running smoothly.

Thanks for the comments about virtualized. I didn't realize that was a problem. I had to be away from the machine with the good graphics card and was doing some work on it using remote desktop connection. Looks like there's no way to 'unvirtualize' the machine until I've logged back in to it from sitting in front of it. Strange that it only came up now after having run remote desktop successfuly since I signed up for GPUgrid. Well, at least it's running even though it's likely my RAC won't recover from this for a long time to come.

Cool ...

Ok, if you need remote access you CAN use one of the many varieties of VNC to get there from here. Almost all versions of MS Remote Desktop and some other remoting software all will virtualize the GPU and once done, as you noted, is not easily undone.

thanks for the note about VNC. I'd have to install it across too many different computers just to be able to support this one card on this one project. Unforutnately the time and resource required to continue to participate is getting a little high. Remote Desktop didn't cause problems for the first few months I was on the project so it's weird to see it happening now. Maybe earlier BOINC versions just paused it or something, I don't know. At this point I think it's best to detach from the project.

ugh, well, we will miss you ... we always do ... :)

Come back when it is easier ...

Oh, and GDF indicated that they might be doing CPU work later ... (will that eventually trigger a name change to "CPU and GPU CUDA and OpenCL with ATI cards and Larabie Grid.net" when they finish adding capabilities ???)

:)

Sorry guys, only sense of humor I got ...

Anyway, come back when you can ...
