Thank you, that's the way to go then! I still have my passkey and username from then, and indeed username is not unique, but ID is right? If you have username and passkey, then you are good to go. Use whatever email you want, create the account, log in to that account from fahclient v8, go to accou...

Hello. Frankly, it baffles me how the allocation of WUs on Folding is like a pure casino draw. My old GTX 1080 just grabbed a small unit that pays nothing, whereas it usually scores big. It's like betting on the right number while waiting for the next protein to process—their system is seriously ra...

Hi everyone, I'm a long‑time contributor to the Folding@home project, and I’m hoping someone from the moderation or admin team can help me with an account issue. During the COVID period (around 2020) I started contributing actively, and with a single machine I briefly reached the global top‑1000. U...

They are too slow

Remove mesa opencl ICD package

rPI were never considered powerful enough for FAH. If it barely makes the deadlines that is not powerful enough, that is just barely powerful

Hello , have installed the folding software for arm64 on a small mini-pc based on arm64 architecture; have noticed that it begins to fold, but then stops at 1% mark; there is no error present, but there is sort of warning in yellow that is not easily legible like 20:28:11:W :Unrecognized option 'gp...

You can find all the logs in /var/log/fah-client
Check the one which would correspond to the time when the fail happened

Should I just run all of those commands? not all. reading the thread usually helps to see what you need to run. finding out what is actually failing for you in fah also should help you find out if you actually need to run all those commands. And again, posting logs when things are failing would hel...

When I turn on FAH, the CPU WU works as normal, but the GPU WU fails almost immediately. I tried stopping and starting fah-client, and updating rocm-hip-runtime and ocl-icd, which usually fixes such problems, but the issue persists. Maybe this has something to do with me running a full system updat...

OK let's start sudo apt install rocm-opencl-runtime && sudo apt install rocm-hip-runtime (select 7.2, which will ensure you are pulling packages from radeon repository and not from ubuntu own) thios would lead to error on latest ubuntu 24.04 lts noble The following information may help to r...

Ah, if it is also failing on Windows, then yes, system has issues

OK let's start from the beginning and basics, since I see you are willing to install fresh OS. Make sure you only have that GPU present on the system (if on Intel CPU, disable its iGPU, please). Install fresh ubuntu/kubuntu (go for 24.04). Do not go to AMD website for anything. Follow this guide to ...

edit: i am wondering if this line still applies (from your aoriginal guide ultima v8) DO NOT download anything from 6.3 branch, unless you have $20k-200k+ AMD Instinct MI300A/X!! have used v.6.4.3 , am at fault therefore? No, this. That guide was done when AMD had a bit of the brainfart, which they...

When GPU stalls, check system journal logs for any events related to to the GPU.
Also, do you have Mesa installed?
Screenshot of the stalled WU log without any filters would be helpful as well
