Failing all GPU Work Units

Post by compdewd »

Hi there,

I seem to be failing GPU Work Units on both of my graphics cards. My cards have not been folding for a week since I have been on vacation. I just got back home and started the cards back up and they are now getting BAD_WORK_UNIT errors on every unit that they receive from several different projects. Before I went on vacation, the cards were working completely normally and since then I have made no changes. There are no (manual) overclocks on either card.

I have restarted my computer, deleted and readded the GPU slots, deleted FahCore_17 from /var/lib/fahclient/cores/web.stanford.edu/~pande/Linux/AMD64/NVIDIA/Fermi/Core_17.fah/, uninstalled and reinstalled FAHClient: all with no success. Can anyone recommend any other steps? (I have paused the slots because I don't know if all of these Dumped units are negatively impacting my Unit Return Ratio.)

System details:

Re: Failing all GPU Work Units

What version of the video drivers is installed for the GPU's? And did Windows run any updates in the intervening period, especially any updates that would have loaded a different video driver? The errors appear similar to those from a system that does not have the OpenCL support installed that goes along with the video drivers.

Thanks for responding, Joe!

I am actually running Linux, but now that you mentioned it, I remember that I saw an NVIDIA driver security update before I left last week. I had installed the update and never thought twice about it. I have downgraded my driver back to what its previous version and I am onto folding again!

Thanks a lot for your help!

P.S. If it is worth anything to anyone, the new driver update for my Linux system was for packages: "nvidia-opencl-icd-331", "nvidia-331", and "libcuda-331". All were updated to version "331.113-0ubuntu0.0.4" which is the version that was causing all of my WUs to crash. It may have just been the OpenCL package that was causing trouble as Joe suspected, but I reverted all three packages back to version "331.38-0ubuntu7" because I didn't want to risk experiencing any incompatibility problems.

There seems to have been some build problems with parts of the nVidia driver set and certain Linux kernels. I also installed that driver update on Ubuntu 14.04 (with whatever kernel) and ended up having to re-install from scratch. However I've now got 14.10 running with 331.113, although I'm not 100% confident that everything built properly it seems to work for FAH.
