Gents, I have two GPUs running, GPU 0 = GeForce GTX 980 Ti GPU 1 = GeForce GTX 760 (192-bit) GPU 0 is running fine, GPU 1 comes back with a calculation error after some seconds. In all other projects both GPUs are running fine. What should I do and how? If I should disable GPU 1 for this project, then how do I do this? Thanks Phil |

MLC recognices your pc with 2 GTX980TI's with 4096 MB each. This seem to be the problem. Might be a configuration error. You need to wait for an Linux expert to get help . |

I'm sorry you're having this issue. Unfortunately, we don't have a test machine with two GPUs to test on, but I'm pretty sure it's worked for others so I'm not sure what the issue is here. As Alex says, BOINC itself is seeing you as having two GTX980s.. How much RAM does your GTX760 have? 2GB is cutting it really close for MLC, at least for the ParityModified WUs currently in the GPU channel (the rand_automata ones aren't as memory intensive, somewhat unintuitively). Since BOINC is telling us you have two 980s with 4GB of VRAM, there's no way of filtering this out on our end. What I'm a bit confused about is if I look at your failed tasks, the error says that it can't find a valid kernel for your card. Its almost like the nvidia libs are choosing the wrong kernel for your card. Since the 980 and 760 are two different generations, it almost seems like its requesting a 980 kernel for your 760 card. This shouldn't be happening. Once we finish releasing the datasets we'll try and take a look at this. |
