Extra Slot Option Name Value

I'm now attempting this on Ubuntu. Do you still need Name Value for ?6800? units.
And what is the Name, Value? I forgot?

If you mean that you are attempting to fold on the GPU in Ubuntu, then the Slot option is:
Name: client-type
Value: advanced

Just make sure that the Ubuntu is 64-bit and the Nvidia Propriety Drivers are installed so you can successfully fold on the GPU which must be Fermi or Kepler. AMD GPUs are currently not supported due to driver issues.

I have successfully folded in Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit LTS with GTX 660 Ti once I installed the drivers. You might have to look under the Additional Drivers and select the Nvidia ones. Once it installs, you should be good to go (maybe after a system restart too).

Multiple Nvidia drivers may be listed there, and either one works, although I usually prefer the newer of the two. A restart is indeed needed.
