Re: Start folding automatically at startup [8.4.9]

@Joe_H "... it was relatively easily to configure off. " I'm a long-time participant and have just upgraded one of my PC's. (Win11,RTX5080) I want FAH to start at boot. I have to run the client manually after start-up. Can you direct me to the FAQ page that explains how? HideConole is run...

The problems started again with API about two hours ago.
This has been reported to the dev, again.

Thanks

Re: fah-client 8.4.9: HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE ("No appropriate assignment")?

It's hard to miss the point when I was the one who suggested new point system for CPUs and got refused that plan ;)
All of us here completely understand everyone's issues :)

Re: fah-client 8.4.9: HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE ("No appropriate assignment")?

Incentive is helping science and researchers who are stuck with simulations which cannot be done with GPUs. That's all there is to it.
If you need other incentives, FAH will not provide them for you, and it is OK for you to chose not to fold on your CPU :)

Re: fah-client 8.4.9: HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE ("No appropriate assignment")?

I believe most or all CPU WUs cannot be done on GPU. Some definitely can’t. muziqaz’s post might have been confusing on that. Yes, whatever is created for CPUs, cannot be run on GPUs. I didn't mention it, because that wasn't the topic of conversation :D Researcher, with limited grant money and dead...

Re: WU stuck on "Shutting Down" after pc restart

You need to pause folding before restarting or shutting down your PC with Windows. Linux does not have this issue. There is something broken the way Windows shuts the PCs down. We are aware of this, still no fix available.
Old WUs will disappear eventually when they expire

Re: fah-client 8.4.9: HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE ("No appropriate assignment")?

The biggest reason why there are so many more CPU WUs, than GPU: Because GPUs are so much faster than CPUs, their WUs can be built much longer (bigger). So let's say a researcher wants to get back 10fs worth of simulations. They create a single WU, which can be run on a GPU, which does 10fs worth of...

Update to Ultimate AMD GPU Linux FAH Guide for OpenCL (FAH-Client v8 only)

Old guide can be found here: https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?t=42491 Having written the first part in the link above, I realised few things about how AMD does things on Linux, and I made few mistakes up there. This prompted me to write much simpler strategy, cutting some of the steps. Basical...

Re: 12129 is cruel to small GPUs

That URL is old and obsolete. None of us have that CPU for testing anymore and we are definitely not using just one CPU for point evaluation.
We are using a plethora of various GPUs for GPU project PPD adjustment, and loads of different CPUs for CPU project PPD adjustment

Re: 12129 is cruel to small GPUs

nVidia stopped supporting and improving their CUDA libraries for older generation cards. New drivers new performance improvements to newer cards. This negatively impacts old cards. This is natural, especially with cards so old as 1000 series. This happened not so long ago. I don't believe in miracl...

Re: 12129 is cruel to small GPUs

I don't think so. 15402 and 15404 are still at the same level of points and these projects running on Core24, same as slowest 12129. Also we have people with 5090 in this topic who reported the same issue at least for 12129. I do think so ;) Whatever 5090 owners are reporting is irrelevant. They bo...
