I'm pretty sure version numbers don't come into it. As to BOINC's intelligence - I think that particular case comes into the "you break it, you own both parts" category - after all, it was you that made the change  Going back to the error message: you're on Linux 64, with no platform tags at all. I'm dealing with a user at SETI, who has Windows 64 and an app_info with <platform>windows_intelx86 and <platform>windows_x86_64 scattered all over it like confetti. I think I'll take this into the development area for a chat with Jason. May be some time. |

ok thanks.... if i see it messing up then ill back up the workunits first then change the version back since that has always worked before and will wait to see if you uncover anything.

6.09 definitely did not work. it got work units but got nothing for gpu. i set it back to 6.08 and it got units for gpu.

Jason has now observed (and I agree with him) that the error is with the error message itself. The last line ("(reached daily quota of 100 tasks)") is the important, meningful one: everything above it, like the rubbish about app_info, is just - well, rubbish.

cool. thanks! breathing easier... the daily quota thing is weird as i typically have received as many as 300 or 400 tasks in one day. but.. if it is something they are implementing, no problem.

Thu 17 Jun 2010 05:57:30 AM EDT SETI@home Beta Test You used the wrong URL for this project Thu 17 Jun 2010 05:57:30 AM EDT SETI@home Beta Test The correct URL is http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/beta/beta?? this just started showing up.. are they wanting us to switch or is this another error? i did nothing to encourage this, it just changed by itself. edit: 1 hr later its back to normal. i think i am going to stop paying attention to any messages this thing gives me for a while. as long as it keeps processing i will leave it alone. |

yeah. ive basically given up caring. when it gets back to normal then fine.... like now its not giving me work saying ive reached my daily quota of 207 tasks... must be something they set up to give everyone an equal chance with what they can produce... i mean.. im sitting here with 9 vlar cpu tasks and nothing else and its telling me no work... im just not worrying about it any more.

You're like lucky with 207 tasks. Mine hovers around 100 when I need over 400 a day.

not sure what happened... it was 100 and i had tasks set for 5 days so i increased them to 10 days and got more work and now its up to 207.. just looked and i got some! wow.. jumped from 3 cpu jobs to 26 with still no gpu jobs and that stupid msg about my app_info.xml which is nonsense... hehe i have to admit they get some interesting responses out of their systems when they 'upgrade'. yet another reason why i believe firmly if it aint broke dont fix it  |

ahh yes.. modify, improve the modifications, then modify the modifications until it is an entirely different product, then scrap all the changes and go back to the original code and fix the one thing that caused all the changes..  |

are the fermi cards proving out any better than when they first came out? or are they still not worth the price of their cooling fan?
i heard they need special software to make them work 'properly' which would possibly cause issues with me since i will be mixing gf100 and gt200b technologies.. maybe i should look around for leftover gtx2 series cards. ihave to get one before i can send my xfx back for repair. the 2nd port is messed up.

Unfortunately fermi cards can't be used for seti in linux. No client available.
Yesterday I read the reviews of 460 GTX. Pretty interesting product. If the supposed dual fermi card will be based on this, this will be the new card to get for seti. Unfortunately nobody knows when/if a dual fermi card will be released.
