I got meself a computer crash trying to fix craphic cards
Ubuntu 8.10 / nvidia. and as im totally new to linus i choosed the reinstall of os option.
Could someone at berkely pls be so kind to reset my todo workunit list.. i got graphic card fixed.. had to remove one of the Nv 8800 GT to get it to work.. but one is better than none.. however this changes me to a cuda user and i guess my last wu list is somewhat outdated

weak key: 223978_a8e8c4f9b5a5579f97ca0c1faef3727e to identify me

i am not totally sure it will work now with cuda and all but comp has accepted the card and we can go from there. as for now i cant communicate with project

Edit spellcheck and confirm :yes boinc client recognizes cuda , all is well, running on 6.4.5 now

still more to do? make as make with nvidia cuda source code?
will that screw up crunching again? darn.. is that why i cant communicate?

i need to upgrade my libs and such also.. ok you'll have to wait so send if so.. im on a slow line (3G modem) so it will take some hrs to get updated again
AQUA is still working in meantime i guess
Well i catch up with lost work later i guess ;)

* Added new workstation performance optimizations.
* Enabled the X Render "GlyphCache" by default.
* Disabled shared memory X pixmaps by default; see the“AllowSHMPixmaps" option.
