* I Purged the FAHClient and reloaded V7.6.21, filled out the User Name, etc. and then opened FAHControl. It shows only folding on cpu with Configure - Expert showing gpu = false.bruce wrote:

Maybe it's just that FAH rewrites config and discards redundant statements. The default value for 'gpu' is 'true' so changing it to 'true' is logically the same as removing the 'false' modification from the default.
* I also looked in config.xml and it shows gpu = false as well.
* Rebooting does not change these values and the machine will not fold on the GPU even though the OpenCL dev files and NVIDIA driver are present.
Are you certain that the gpu default = true? If so, how did the gpu=false occur in start-up process? It would seem that the default is set to false or the Client rewrites gpu=false during start-up. Either way, no gpu folding on my Linux machine.
If I change the value of gpu=true in FAHControl, Save and Reboot the Client simply removes the gpu attribute in Control and config.xml, it will not allow me to change it to true. But at this point it will start folding on the gpu with no gpu attribute.
So at this point, my Guide will include removing the gpu attribute in Control. I'd like to delete this step but at this point I'm at a loss as how to get the Client to come up without intervention for gpu folding on the current LTS version of Ubuntu.
I've included the logs from the start-up immediately following install of the Client.
Any thoughts?
Thanks, Steve
