1) Message boards : News : JOIN GPUGRID discord (Message 62602) Posted 10 Jun 2026 by Greg _BE Post: We mainly use discord these days: https://discord.gg/dCMkcafPpX Invite invalid...as are all the others. Why Discord? All you do there is hide and post busted invites here.
2) Message boards : News : ATM (Message 62490) Posted 27 Jul 2025 by Greg _BE Post: hello! Any big jobs on the horizon? Aren't you getting any language model work? You have nice GPU's I'm sitting here with a older 1080 and I think I have to delete this project (out of BOINC) until the fall as there is no work for me and I have flatlined for weeks now.
3) Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : Is a GTX 1080 even relevant here anymore? (Message 62488) Posted 20 Jul 2025 by Greg _BE Post: No the 1080 Ti cannot run the sLLM tasks. They require cards with 16GB or more of memory. Project is backed off messages come from the client, not the project. Just means that either communications with the project is not normal or that the client is too busy with other projects work and GPUGrid is way down the priority order due to more pressing deadlines from other projects/ ok thanks
4) Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : Is a GTX 1080 even relevant here anymore? (Message 62486) Posted 18 Jul 2025 by Greg _BE Post: I have not got any work for a long time and all i get for status message is: Not requesting tasks: don't need (CPU: blocked by project preferences; NVIDIA GPU: project is backed off) Not requesting tasks ok..but project is backed off? I can't get a clear explanation of that from the chatbots And the other thing is...can the 1080 run the small LLM? the bot thinks it can.
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Can not see the history of what tasks I have processed and RAC flatlined (Message 62468) Posted 2 Jul 2025 by Greg _BE Post: Ok Reset is done...waiting for new work when it ever comes.
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Can not see the history of what tasks I have processed and RAC flatlined (Message 62465) Posted 1 Jul 2025 by Greg _BE Post: I looked up that error, outdated drivers were part of that. But being I had completed over 25 simulations or whatever and it bombed on the latest one to start, my thought was bad data in that. But...the third person to get the task completed it ok. So I don't know. But anyway..any thoughts on why I don't see anything but the current task and that I am flatlined since I restarted everything on the June 8? I know there was not a lot of work when I started, but there has been recently. But I can not see if I completed anything in the last 7 days successfully or if it was all errors. That's what is bugging me now.
7) Message boards : Number crunching : Can not see the history of what tasks I have processed and RAC flatlined (Message 62463) Posted 1 Jul 2025 by Greg _BE Post: It seems like the server just wipes all information about what tasks I have done. I have been crunching for 2 weeks now since I was on vacation, I guess some tasks from the ATM have errored out due to exit child (the latest one) but they disapear from my account list before I have a chance to view it. I don't monitor my system as much as I used to so I miss these errors. My RAC is flatlined now and I can't figure out what is going on. I did update my GPU drivers, so maybe the next task will run. On this last task I got to around the 29th run of the task and then it imploded. The first person that got also have error -195 exit child. So is that why I am 0 new credit? to many exit childs? I have no way to confirm that.

9) Message boards : Number crunching : Stat's Export (Message 62272) Posted 20 Mar 2025 by Greg _BE Post: From the Discord page: Steve - Yes next week we can maybe begin some initial production. All the previous issues have now been worked around! (Today)
10) Message boards : Number crunching : Stat's Export (Message 62266) Posted 18 Mar 2025 by Greg _BE Post: There are no stats since the system went down for modification and they found a bug in the tasks and the university has changed security protocols so the project is not exporting or importing any information right now. Consider the project 'dead' for the moment. Steve will tell us when hes worked through all the issues and running again.
11) Message boards : Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) : No tasks in quite a while. (Message 62265) Posted 18 Mar 2025 by Greg _BE Post: i tried Linux Mint - mozilla won't work, firefox won't work COMPLETE waste of time - PLEASE LOAD WINDOW TASKS....... It's NOT your OS that's the problem they moved the Server behind a University firewall and they have rules that GPUGrid is working to get thru, then Steve said they found a database problem they hope to fix soon. Mikey, I told you this in our PM conversation.
12) Message boards : Number crunching : ATMML (Message 62248) Posted 8 Mar 2025 by Greg _BE Post: Go here for a message from Steve: https://gpugrid.net/gpugrid/forum_thread.php?id=5409&postid=62242
13) Message boards : Number crunching : new error requesting tasks (Message 62243) Posted 6 Mar 2025 by Greg _BE Post: Asked in the Discord page and got this answer: Steve is on leave until next week. For example, in ATM and ATMML, the apps need to be updated to what we have locally. Once this is done I have loads of work to send We have made some changes, mainly performance/speed improvements
14) Message boards : Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) : No tasks in quite a while. (Message 62237) Posted 3 Mar 2025 by Greg _BE Post: Server has been upgraded, but no new tasks are being released to us. There are 31 in queue that have not been released. There are 2 in progress and 7 waiting for assimilation. All servers are running. I sent a message to Steve and hope that he can find some time to update us on what is going on.
15) Message boards : Number crunching : new error requesting tasks (Message 62230) Posted 1 Mar 2025 by Greg _BE Post: Steve - why are there 27 tasks that are sitting in the queue but not being sent out? Are they all stuck and you haven't removed them or what is going on? When do we get new tasks?
16) Message boards : Number crunching : new error requesting tasks (Message 62225) Posted 26 Feb 2025 by Greg _BE Post: Hi, Thanks for the info. I followed your procedure and the error is gone. Alas, I didn't get any tasks (the Status page says there's 3, but I'm not sure how reliable that is). Thanks again. Doug I saw those last night, but I guess they are stuck in the system. ATMML: Free energy with neural networks 3 Isn't that what we were working on before the server move?
17) Message boards : Number crunching : new error requesting tasks (Message 62223) Posted 25 Feb 2025 by Greg _BE Post: Hi, Now that GPUGrid is finally back, I'm getting this error: 2/25/2025 12:06:11 PM \| GPUGRID \| Scheduler request to https://www.gpugrid.net/PS3GRID_cgi/cgi failed: HTTP file not found Anyone know why or what this means or how to fix it? Thanks. Doug [/url] I just clicked on the reset button in BOINC manager. The click on update You will get this message: Master URL changed from https://www.gpugrid.net/ to https://gpugrid.net/gpugrid/ It will download the master file and then pause.
18) Message boards : Number crunching : Server is out of disk space (Message 62036) Posted 15 Dec 2024 by Greg _BE Post: Funny how this always seems to happen on a weekend and nothing can be done until Monday. I am wondering anyway how much or not they are interested in keeping their own project working properly, given that obviously everyone leaves on Friday afternoon and no one keeps an eye on what's happening until the following week :-( EU project (Barcelona). M-F only. Not paid for weekends. They are a donation based program with a bit of government funding, so there is no money for weekend work. So if something goes SOL after hours then it waits until the next working day. Actually I don't think any BOINC project has a 24/7 monitor. Rosetta in the early days did, but all the projects I am on now don't.
19) Message boards : Number crunching : Server is out of disk space (Message 62023) Posted 14 Dec 2024 by Greg _BE Post: Probably won't see anything done about it (disk space) until Monday if we are lucky.
20) Message boards : Number crunching : excluding 1 GPU (Message 61874) Posted 7 Oct 2024 by Greg _BE Post: ahh...ok..thats what I didn't know.
