Playing nice With Others
I have F@H 8-4 on a Linux system that up until now hasn't used the GPU for very much at all -- F@H has basically gotten it all. But I have a new project where I need a GUI on the machine, right now Xorg + xrdp + GNOME. Today is the first day I've gotten that to work, with the invaluable assistance o...

Re: FAH 8.4.9 Installed, not folding
Here's what I did: Saved the F@H ID = -- censored -- found in /var/log/fah-client/log.txt Built a config file using the Token found in my https://v8-4.foldingathome.org/account/settings like so: /etc/fah-client/config.xml <config> <account-token v='-- censored --'/> </config> Restarted fahclient.ser...

Re: FAH 8.4.9 Installed, not folding
No change in symptom so far as I can tell. Reading comments.... Could I possibly have two accounts? Is my F@H ID spposed to match the token in my account settings at https://v8-4.foldingathome.org/account/settings? What if it doesn't? trl@homeserver:~$ systemctl status fah-client.service Warning: Th...

Re: FAH 8.4.9 Installed, not folding
Thanks for writing back. > Can you take a screenshot of your system info section withing the client web page? I don't think there is one or maybe we're not talking about using "https://v8-4.foldingathome.org/machines" but rather something like http://192.168.0.6:10000" Is there someth...

Re: Setup on Linux -- Headless
Thanks for the replies. This works, sort of. The most obvious problem it seems to ignore <cpus v='12'/> or <cpus v=12/> with or without the tick marks. It uses 31 of my 32 cores. I don't understand something about allowed-origins -- I should think it could accept a CIDR mask like 192.168.0.0/24 inst...

Setup on Linux -- Headless
I got a new computer and thought I'd make Folding@Home the first service I'd get going on it because (as I recall from the other one) getting the NVIDIA software to work was painful and, well, let's get it over with. I see that a great deal has changed. Here's where I'm at. I have it running, and by...

Re: Is OpenCL Necessary?
Thanks much. Added it to my notebook. The sudo apt install ocl-icd-opencl-dev step is what I was missing.bikeaddict wrote:Someone has created a guide to installing F@H on Ubuntu.
FAHClient is chugging away trying to get an assignment. I guess the server's down.
Thanks again.

Is OpenCL Necessary?
So FAHClient finds the GPU and it finds CUDA, but not OpenCL. But /etc/init.d/FAHClient start I think it is complains about respawning too fast, and FAHClient complains about some database being locked. It all exits in a couple minutes. I have no idea what's happening. I had thought OpenCL was a sec...

GPU Starved?
I'm folding in a Dell T7400 with two Xeon processors (8 cores) and an NVIDIA 1060. I have a 6 core CPU slot, and one GPU slot. I'm seeing the GPU running at 85%. What would be reasons it isn't closer to 100%? t [trl@svr2 ~]$ nvidia-smi Fri Mar 5 15:32:03 2021 +---------------------------------------...
