It's computing with the same driver, 390, under Ubuntu 18.04. I must work, also on PC about 6 hours per day, so I want GPU device 0, witch outputs on monitor, to be suspended and device 1 to be always active. This the last one is just for computing. How can I do that ? Thx. ID: 94019 ·

Last modified: 5 Dec 2019, 10:15:55 UTC Refer to the User Manual. Create, or if you have one already, edit, a file called 'cc_config.xml'. The easiest way is probably to edit the logging options from BOINC Manager (Ctrl+Shift+F), which will create a complete template file for you to work from. You'll probable need an administrator/sudo editor to make changes. Then, add a block to the 'Options' section, as shown in the manual. Something like <ignore_nvidia_dev>N</ignore_nvidia_dev> Ignore (don't use) a specific NVIDIA GPU. You can ignore more than one. Replaces <ignore_cuda_dev/>. Requires a client restart. Example: <ignore_nvidia_dev>0</ignore_nvidia_dev> will ignore the first NVIDIA GPU in the system. I need to edit go downstairs to remind myself of the likely location of the new cc_config.xml file - I'll edit it in. The file on my Ubuntu system with BOINC v7.16.3 is in /etc/boinc-client ID: 94021 ·

But as always only if I restart the computer i can manage to restrt boinc. I closed boinc manager, automatic shut down of client but when I open boinc manager it says that is trying to conect to boinc client. Then disconected. If i open boinc client from terminal i get no projects attached. ID: 94022 ·

Bear with me - I'm still a newbie in Linux. Since I wrote that, I found that I can go through the symlink from /var/lib/boinc-client/ and edit the file as myself. If I edit the 'real' file in etc/boinc-client/, I have to use sudo. Given that cc_config.xml is an optional file, does anyone happen to know whether the file and the symlink are created 'empty' by the installer, or whether they appear after first use? ID: 94085 ·

From memory the package installer has a cc_config.xml that has a couple of the logging flags set to their default values, so it’s not an empty file and it’s present once you’ve installed the boinc-client package.
