BOINC 6.12.30 retracted for Windows. BOINC 6.12.31 retracted for Linux and Macintosh. Disclaimer On development versions of BOINC: - Expect parts of it to be broken, or in the least to work in a different way than you are used to. - Expect work failures, deadline misses and losing all your accumulated work in progress, or not getting credit for your work due to unknown and unforeseen circumstances. - Only use it when you are willing to participate in the Alpha test program and do not mind sending (bug) reports in to the developers on the email list specially assigned for this purpose. REMINDER TO ALL ALPHA TESTERS: It's far easier for the developers to fix problems when you send message logs with the appropriate flags set. The main flags are: <cpu_sched_debug>: problems involving the choice of applications to run. <work_fetch_debug>: problems involving work fetch (which projects are asked for work, and how much). <rr_simulation>: problems involving jobs being run in high-priority mode. <sched_op_debug>: problems involving scheduler operations and other low level information. Use these flags from the cc_config.xml file. Report any problems you get with it to the Alpha email list. This list needs registration. Reporting bugs on this forum or any project's forum isn't very productive as the developers simply do not have time to scour through all forums looking for posts with your bug reports in them. While it may happen that we - other volunteers - forward your problem to them, history has shown it is quite difficult being the middle man in this when more information is needed from you. Hence why it's better for all concerned that you report the problem directly to the developers, who will come back directly to you when they need more information or better logs or to tell you that they've checked in a fix for the specific problem. The actual change log was taken from the Alpha email list and the Trac Timeline repository changes check-ins. This disclaimer was written by the volunteer moderators of this forum and approved of by the BOINC development team. Change Log 6.12.30:

Service installation problem? The problem is still with the ATI 11.7 (or 11.8) catalysts, which break the detection of the card. If you do not use your GPU, you can get around this with a cc_config.xml file that contains the following lines: <cc_config>
<options>
<no_gpus>1</no_gpus>
</options>
</cc_config>
This will require a restart of the client. If you do use your GPU, you shouldn't install as a service on Windows 7 and Vista anyway due to the session 0 problem. In the mean time, Rom is including a fix that will disable the GPU detection. It'll be in the forthcoming 6.12.38. This will however break GPU detection when installed as a service on Windows XP as well. Sorry for that, but it's either, or. That will get fixed in a future release, until that time, go complain at ATI/AMD that they need to fix their drivers! And please report back when they said they did. ;-) ID: 40316 · |
