I have been running SETI on my 9800 for a while now with no problems, but tonight I started using my onboard video as well as the 9800 because I am having troubles with the 9800 with a game I play. So I decided to use the onboard to play games and just keep the 9800 crunching WU's. Right now it is still crunching WU's, but it is quickly running out of tasks, and won't download anymore. I have tried a couple of different commands in the cc_config file, but honestly, I don't have a clue on what to do. I have read some posts and searched the web, but coming up short here. Any ideas? I am sure there is a fix, I just don't know it.

Your computer is requesting gpu (enhanced version 608) work, which is Astropulse.

If you look at the server status on the SETI web site, here, you'll see that there's plenty of cpu work, but no Astropulse (gpu) work.

I'm pretty sure that 6.08 is MultiBeam (CUDA)

AstroPulse would be 5.05 and the GPU version (ATI) is still in beta, IIRC.

Ok, well thanks for the "tip". I feel like an idiot. It was just a coincidence that I did the setup, and SETI ran outa WU's at the same time. So yeah.... Hows the weather out there? Oh look...... *points and runs* See ya......
