Re: No WU for a long time. Stacked
Does your GPU sometimes pick up work?
The general problem is that there has been massive demand for GPU workunits, far outstripping supply and server resources. The servers are currently sending out 140,000 workunits/hour when two months ago they were at 10,000 workunits/hour. The research teams have been adding more servers and getting more projects online, so its slowly getting better. This is described in the sticky thread: viewtopic.php?f=61&t=33193

F@h is now the top computing platform on the planet and nothing unites people like a dedicated fight against a common enemy. This virus affects all of us. Lets end it together.

If you post your log (ensuring to include the top 100 or lines which include the system configuration … viewtopic.php?f=24&t=26036 … it will be possible to check if there are any configuration issues.

Just in case, is there yet more WU for GPU available? Almost two days without WU's until now...
Thank you!

The researchers are in the process of generating more Projects and optimizing the Server infrastructure. Moreover, some Beta GPU projects are in the pipeline. Hopefully, there will be more GPU WUs soon and additional work is being done to meet the massive demand

How long do projects usually spend in beta before moving to advanced? I'm guessing they're expedited too now?PantherX wrote:The researchers are in the process of generating more Projects and optimizing the Server infrastructure.

Re: No WU for a long time. Stacked
If researchers get good feedback, it can progress quickly. However, if they don't get any feedback, they will need to spend more time to get the feedback. A potential slow-down could be avoided if Donors who are not part of the Beta team would not use the beta flag: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=34361iceman1992 wrote:...How long do projects usually spend in beta before moving to advanced?

EDIT: Alternatively, those keen to use the beta flag can apply to join the Beta team to expedite the process

It does help to restart FAH about once a day, especially if your client is new.

Re: No WU for a long time. Stacked
Can you please post a bit more of your log file? Ensure to include the first 100 lines from your log file. Guidance is here if you need it: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=26036
For GPU to work, you need to have the Nvidia drivers installed and also the OpenCL package(?)

Re: No WU for a long time. Stacked
It looks like the drivers and OpenCL are not installed (correctly). See https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/10 ... lding-rig/
Then:Add the PPA Graphics Drivers Archive (Repository)
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt-get install dkms build-essential
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt list nvidia-driver* (and pick the newest version to install)
Install the most current GPU Driver (v430 at the time of writing)
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-430
You may want to uninstall FAH before that, and reinstall it afterwards.Install CLinfo and run it to ensure that the OpenCL Drivers are installed
sudo apt install clinfo
clinfo
Install the OpenCL Development Package anyway:
sudo apt install ocl-icd-opencl-dev
and restart the computer
sudo shutdown -r now
