Hi,
Just trying to get this going at the moment, but keep getting this error:
16/09/2008 3:42:13 PM|PS3GRID|Message from server: Full-atom molecular dynamics for Cell processor is not available for your type of computer.
Initially I had installed BOINC as a service, and ran into the issue documented in this forum where CUDA will emulate a GPU (Coprocessor: Device Emulation (CPU) (1)), as BOINC didn't have privileges to access the actual hardware. The error currently in question was also present during this period.
Anyway, a quick non-service BOINC reinstall later and I am still getting it. A quick peek through the google shows it's apparently not a common issue, and nothing really pointed me in the right direction.
So, dear internet, do you think you can help me?
Here is the complete log output:

From you log, you appear to have two GTX260's?
Are they in SLi? GPU grid cannot run them if they are in SLi mode.

They are not in SLI mode. I'm running on three monitors and I don't have an SLI capable motherboard, so I would be surprised if I was mistaken. |

Same problem here!
I don't change anything on my computer since almost 2 week.

You're not the only ones :-( I think this will be shown to everybody who is crunching on the GPU... :-/ |

What GDF, did not say is,
The message about "full atom" is for the other application which is for the PS3. The scheduler when it runs out of tasks for your type of computer, the GPU, still has work available for the PS3, which will not run on the GPU, so it sends this message, meaning there are some types of work, but none that will run on your computer. This happens also for linux vs windows. I get these types of messages frequently on other projects that have multiple apps, where in my account I have selected to only run one or two of those. That app runs out of work but the others still have work. |

That is good to know. I was getting these about 12 hours ago on my Win 32 Nvidia GPU machine. I kept trying several times and finally did download a work unit (although for the other reasons stated on these boards, it ran more slowly than the previous Windows GPU version).
One troublesome thing about the "No new work" message is that the scheduler backs off a full 24 hours. That seems excessive to me, when new work might be put up much sooner than that. Seems like a waste of time to be forced to wait that long, imho! ;) |

Yes, especially with such a short-deadline-project like GPU-Grid 24h is too long. Is this a server setting or a global setting in the BOINC software?
