Hi all,

In attempt to rationalise the rules for assigning WUS to crunchers, I've made some changes to the underlying scheduler program. Here are the new rules:



* If you have driver >= 343.00 and sm >= 2.0 you will get a CUDA 6.5

* If you have driver >= 334.21 and < 343.00 and sm >= 2.0 you will get a CUDA 6.0

* If you have driver >= 295.30 and< 334.21 and sm >= 2.0 and < 5.0, you'll get a CUDA 4.2

* If you have driver >= 295.30 and sm == 1.3 you'll only get CUDA 4.2

There was a tiny problem. You should be getting something now.

Not all works correct if I may. I have probably a to old driver (331.00) as the newer is a bit slower for my 780Ti's on win7.
So I could only do cuda 42 and 55. Now I get cuda 60, witch I should not get when read correct, and they error all out, but do not start to run.
According to new scheduling I should not get these tasks?

I hope you're still able to feed my rigs 3 GPUs, both now and in the future:

Current setup:
GTX 660 Ti
GTX 660 Ti
GTX 460

Setup in 2 years:
GTX 980 Ti
GTX 660 Ti
GTX 660 Ti

Ok, looks like your old driver is incorrectly reporting CUDA 6 capability.
Is there no newer driver you are prepared to update to? 331 is touching a year old now.

Thanks Matt, yes I have already downloaded the latest version an will update as the queue is empty. I know that is not necessary but that is the way I do always and I have no loss of any work, having a high electricity bill.

The scheduler is still doing its job in a strange manner.
I've set my host with two GTX 780Ti to receive short runs also. It has received 4 short units, 3 of them were CUDA6.5, the 4th was CUDA6.0.

It's as specific as I can make it until I've a CUDA 6.5 app on each queue.

Yes, quite so- sm 1.3 is re-enabled for the moment. I'll probably drop this support fairly soon, though. GTX270-295 account for less than 1% of our throughput now, and it's not worth maintaining an application for.

Hi Carlesa25, if I have read all the posts correct, than at the moment cuda65 is only in beta and short runs.

No tasks available for my GTX780Ti on linux with latest drivers (343.22) and boinc version 7.4.22 that reports Nvidia driver version


Boinc, using linux nvidia driver 343.22, reports cuda version 6.5 for my 780Ti: No work available.

If I roll back my nvidia driver to 337.25, boinc reports cuda 6.0 and now I can download work.

Problem solved for now.
