What's the best way to do the upgrade? Uninstall 6x then install 7 or install right over 6x or can/will it be installed along with 6x (have both installed)? | |

|
You can install 7 directly over 6. | |

Is there a deadline for running BOINC 6 ? Just wondering when we have to go to 7. I don't think that there'll be a deadline. I'm still using BOINC 5! Gruß, Gundolf | |

Strange, new BOINC throws away all my GPU work: Do you happen to have a service/protected application execution installation? Claggy | |

Strange, new BOINC throws away all my GPU work: Yes, it's service installation. I'm with WinXP. ____________  Windows: "Where do you want to go today?" Linux: "Where do you want to go tomorrow?" FreeBSD: "Are you guys coming, or what?" | |

Strange, new BOINC throws away all my GPU work: From Boinc 6.12.38 onwards: client: Disable GPU detection of Windows when running as a service to avoid a deadlock condition with the latest ATI drivers. Claggy | |

Strange, new BOINC throws away all my GPU work: Thanks, do you have any idea how to change BOINC installation? ____________ Windows: "Where do you want to go today?" Linux: "Where do you want to go tomorrow?" FreeBSD: "Are you guys coming, or what?" | |

Strange, new BOINC throws away all my GPU work: Uninstall Boinc, then reinstall and on the Boinc configuration page, click Advanced, and untick Protected application execution, then run through the rest of the installation as normal. (I'm not sure if you have to reboot, or have stop the service after uninstalling Boinc) Claggy | |

Works all okay with the optimized lunatics apps? For those running anonymous platform without <flops> in the app_info.xml there's a possible issue. The <dont_use_dcf> feature implemented in changeset [25477] will eventually get turned on when the project's server code is updated to version 7. If an uneasy truce has been achieved with DCF greatly different than 1.0, runtime estimates will change greatly for a host running the BOINC 7.0 client. The applicable checkin_note was added the next day: David 22 Mar 2012
- client/server: add optional <dont_use_dcf/> to schedule reply.
If set, client won't use DCF for this project.
Make this the default in server code;
we now do runtime estimation entirely on the server side,
and the client-side mechanism is counterproductive.
The "optional" isn't very much so, the project would have to edit /boinc/sched/sched_types.cpp to not send it. This is just a heads-up for those who might be affected, the server-side estimates of runtime have ignored DCF for more than a year. Joe | |

Will this run on Windows 8 or still need to use the 6.12.38 version? | |
