Re: FAH 8.4.9 Installed, not folding

Thanks for writing back. > Can you take a screenshot of your system info section withing the client web page? I don't think there is one or maybe we're not talking about using "https://v8-4.foldingathome.org/machines" but rather something like http://192.168.0.6:10000" Is there someth...

FAH 8.4.9 Installed, not folding

Hi. I got a new machine and am reinstalling fah-client_8.4.9 I can see it at https://v8-4.foldingathome.org/machines It knows the new hostname, shows one machine, but no CPUs and no GPUs What should I look for? It's running trl@homeserver:~$ systemctl status fah-client.service ● fah-client.service -...

Re: Setup on Linux -- Headless

Thanks for the replies. This works, sort of. The most obvious problem it seems to ignore <cpus v='12'/> or <cpus v=12/> with or without the tick marks. It uses 31 of my 32 cores. I don't understand something about allowed-origins -- I should think it could accept a CIDR mask like 192.168.0.0/24 inst...

Setup on Linux -- Headless

I got a new computer and thought I'd make Folding@Home the first service I'd get going on it because (as I recall from the other one) getting the NVIDIA software to work was painful and, well, let's get it over with. I see that a great deal has changed. Here's where I'm at. I have it running, and by...

Thanks much. Added it to my notebook. The sudo apt install ocl-icd-opencl-dev step is what I was missing.

FAHClient is chugging away trying to get an assignment. I guess the server's down.

Thanks again.

Is OpenCL Necessary?

So FAHClient finds the GPU and it finds CUDA, but not OpenCL. But /etc/init.d/FAHClient start I think it is complains about respawning too fast, and FAHClient complains about some database being locked. It all exits in a couple minutes. I have no idea what's happening. I had thought OpenCL was a sec...

GPU Starved?

I'm folding in a Dell T7400 with two Xeon processors (8 cores) and an NVIDIA 1060. I have a 6 core CPU slot, and one GPU slot. I'm seeing the GPU running at 85%. What would be reasons it isn't closer to 100%? t [trl@svr2 ~]$ nvidia-smi Fri Mar 5 15:32:03 2021 +---------------------------------------...

Re: Two NVIDIA Drivers on CentOS 8

@Bruce -- yes, exactly. The correct term (I have learned) is "Driver Pack". You can install only one NVIDIA Driver Pack and the one that includes the NVS 290 driver does not include the GTX 1060. I think what NVIDIA are doing is making sure their legacy drivers work with newer Linux Kernel...

Re: Two NVIDIA Drivers on CentOS 8

@JimboPalmer Yes, thank you. I have one coming if I decide to give up entirely on the Q 290. Which seems likely.

Re: Two NVIDIA Drivers on CentOS 8

NVIDIA say this: "When using two or more NVIDIA cards in the same system, both cards need to use the same NVIDIA driver to avoid conflicts." [URL=https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2280] They don't quite say "you can't install two different drivers" A customer (M...

Re: Two NVIDIA Drivers on CentOS 8

> Out of curiosity, why don't you want to use the GTX 1060 as the display? The most immediate reason is I don't have a DVI-D ==> VGA adapter for the KVM switch ;-) I don't have a straight DVI-D cable either. But I was poking around the X configuration, and I see it isn't configured to use the 1060 d...
