Folding Forum

Good day, I'm trying to join vs. Corona fight and my Ryzen CPU is folding fine however GPU folding via AMD Radeon VII (7) will not initiate. Drivers are latest Adrenaline 20.2.2
Web control and advanced control app/client both say "Paused:waiting for idle" despite me having turned idle off and trying to force 'Fold' via the button. Like I said the CPU is happily folding and responding to the commands...

Did you push the slider to full folding power?

Thanks @foldy I have done but nothing kicking off yet. Some interesting info I've had back from Usman at wccftech a few days back: My (NVIDIA) GPU isn't folding right now as well - only the CPU is. Looks like they have run out of GPU-accelerated tasks xD Stanford opens on Monday. Its likely GPUs will remain idle throughout the weekend now. They were probably not expecting the increase in computing power on the GPU side.
And again today some more: They are out of GPU accelerated WUs. So that is normal. A large supercomputing cluster recently joined the mesh and they are out of work units xD Keep the client active and someone should eventually start allocating WUs again.
let's hope Vega/Navi are able to pick up the jobs with Adrenaline 20.2.2 when they do sort out the work unit problem(!)

Open FAHControl. What does the status screen say? Do you have the correct slots and are they shown as IDLE or RUNNING or READY?

status 'online' ip address etc. The CPU slots/queue processes work units however the GPU slots show as paused. I think they're awaiting the work units as described in my post above (Stanford haven't made available yet)
