I had a video problem unrelated to BOINC, and I just swapped out my old card for a pair of NVidia 3700LE cards. Installed them, configured them, but BOINC doesn't see them.

I'm running Ubuntu Lucid 64-bit, BOINC 6.10.56
NVidia drivers 195.36.31.

On startup, BOINC says:

Does anyone have any ideas? I've got BOINC using the GPU on a Windows box, I may try putting one of the 3700's in there to see if it'll use it.

NVidia 3700LE

They're videocards, but not necessarily CUDA capable. See the official Nvidia list of CUDA capable GPUs.

Yeah, the Quadro 3700 is listed, but not the GeForce 3700. :(
