Hello,

I am having a problem with running GPUGRID on my Linux box. Whenever the program runs after downloading the required files the there is immediately a computation error. I am running drivers 185.18.08. I have no idea what is causing it.

GPUGRID finds my CUDA cards

GPUGRID has read/write access to both GPUs and I know that environment does work as I can run both nvidia CUDA demos and my own CUDA projects without a problem.

Is there any way to get a more detailed verbose from GPUGRID? The message log gives this output from one task been downloaded and run:

As you can see the project finishes immediately, there are missing output files according to the log.
The task status comes up as computation error.

Under the gpugrid folder in the boinc folder I found an executable which I presume is called by boinc for the computation. Running ldd show no missing links.

Any suggestions for how to solve this problem or how I could some further information out the program to try locate the problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Never mind... I have seen that is a problem with the 185.* drivers in Linux with GPUGRID. Hopefully this is something that can be sorted soon.
