Error folding on GPU [OpenSUSE]

[calxalot]

Yay!

If the system log is full of noise, you might also want
StandardOutput=null

Is it safe to use
Restart=always
again?

Yes, actually. It now works with Restart=always.

[calxalot]

Nice. Could you post the final service file here? Thanks.

I installed the service like you described, but I'm still not able to to GPU folding.
Client always tries to start, but fails eventually. I'm on 367.57 with compute package installed.

When it's "trying to start" are there messages going to FAH's log? ... to the console? ... etc. that you can post?

What directory is currently open when the service starts?

[calxalot]

Did you add group video to user fahclient?

[aufkrawall]

No, that was my mistake. It works now with video, thanks.
In the meantime I had been able to get it to work with root user, but that was of course an ugly solution.
