I just brought online a new computer running Linux Ubuntu 12.04 and a GTX650 Ti graphics card. My linux logs indicate that the OS knows about the GTX 650, I have checked the appropriate "boxes" on the SETI web site but I do not see that this unit is being utilized. The boinc logs state "No usable GPUs found". Any ideas/suggestions? http://www.usefulramblings.org ID: 1318876 ·  |

Drivers. You'll need to install drivers from the Nvidia site, not ones installed through Ubuntu, as these will usually lack the CUDA/OpenCL components. ID: 1318934 · |

I downloaded the install script from the Nvidia site and ran it after disabling X. The scripts seemed to work in that there were no errors. I rebooted. Running the nvidia-settings script says that I am using a GPU. Seti does not think so, therefore I must not have it right. I am thinking of switching to another distro of Linux but would like to be sure that there isn't something simple that I have overlooked. Any ideas? TIA http://www.usefulramblings.org ID: 1319323 · |

I don't think you should disable X at any time. And it also seems to be a lack of CUDA Toolkit and SDK. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cuda and http://sn0v.wordpress.com/2012/05/11/installing-cuda-on-ubuntu-12-04/ for ideas. ID: 1319449 · |

Long story short. I installed Centos, installed the NVIDIA run script,disabled X11 nouveau, and installed a bunch of other stuff, rebooted and saw the GTX 650ti card. I downloaded the BOINC run file from the site but it was not compatible with Centos. Centos does not provide a BOINC rpm. Tried downloading BOINC source but could not. Kept getting timeouts which I posted in another thread. This morning I reinstalled FC17 and using both FC 17 and Centos procedures was able to get FC 17 to recognize the GTX 650ti. I installed BOINC from the FC 17 distro and I am now online with a GPU processing SETI. I am in the process of trying to document what I did and will be happy to share it here and on my website. I have not yet had the time to put it together. This was way too difficult an effort and maybe this is why I see most "participants" running Win OS. This morning's effort took about 20 minutes but it took hours trying to bring together the various online published procedures and paring them down into a procedure that worked. And as one guy said "this might not work for you.". Anyway it working and thanks for pointing out the need to install the NVIDIA drivers from their website. The generic install of FC17 saw the card but did not have the necessary cuda support etc. With the install of the the drivers from the website the NVIDIA gui shows cuda installed, driver release 310, number of cores etc. Ron http://www.usefulramblings.org ID: 1320031 · |

Long story short. Actually you are still not processing work on the GPU as there is not a stock GPU app for Linux. This thread has some useful info... http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=69780 and you can also get the apps from here... GPU http://www.arkayn.us/forum/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item24 CPU http://www.arkayn.us/forum/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=cat57 Must be running a 64-bit OS to use the GPU app.

Long story short. Now I am confused. If I login to my account and "view my computers" it shows that the node in question is running/listing a NVIDIA GPU. Before I installed the drivers no GPU was listed. Why would the site show a GPU and correctly identify it? what do you mean by "not a stock GPU app for Linux"? In reading the NVIDIA site's readme for installation of their current Linux drivers I don't recall seeing any mention/requirement for another app. I am runing FC 17 64 bit and downloaded the driver file from the NVIDIA site for Linux 64 bit. Here is segment of my BOINC log file: 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] OS: Linux: 3.6.10-2.fc17.x86_64 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] Memory: 15.63 GB physical, 17.62 GB virtual 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] Disk: 49.22 GB total, 42.44 GB free 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] Local time is UTC -5 hours 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] NVIDIA GPU 0: GeForce GTX 650 Ti (driver version unknown, CUDA version 5.0, compute capability 3.0, 1024MB, 9062MB available, 1425 GFLOPS peak) 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] OpenCL: NVIDIA GPU 0: GeForce GTX 650 Ti (driver version 310.19, device version OpenCL 1.1 CUDA, 1024MB, 9062MB available) 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] No general preferences found - using defaults 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] Preferences: 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] max memory usage when active: 8002.41MB 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] max memory usage when idle: 14404.34MB 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] max disk usage: 10.00GB 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] don't use GPU while active 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] suspend work if non-BOINC CPU load exceeds 25 % 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] (to change preferences, visit the web site of an attached project, or select Preferences in the Manager) 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] Not using a proxy 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] This computer is not attached to any projects 25-Dec-2012 11:43:35 [---] Visit http://boinc.berkeley.edu for instructions Initialization completed 25-Dec-2012 11:52:18 [---] Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php 25-Dec-2012 11:54:14 [---] Running CPU benchmarks 25-Dec-2012 11:54:14 [---] Suspending computation - CPU benchmarks in progress 25-Dec-2012 11:54:46 [---] Benchmark results: 25-Dec-2012 11:54:46 [---] Number of CPUs: 8 25-Dec-2012 11:54:46 [---] 2259 floating point MIPS (Whetstone) per CPU 25-Dec-2012 11:54:46 [---] 4474 integer MIPS (Dhrystone) per CPU 25-Dec-2012 11:54:47 [---] Resuming computation 25-Dec-2012 11:54:51 [SETI@home] Master file download succeeded 25-Dec-2012 11:54:56 [SETI@home] Sending scheduler request: Project initialization.

You will notice that for Windows, quite a few show this.

They have not released an application for Linux to use the GPU, but Lunatics has taken the optimized code and released a application that will allow Linux users to use their GPU's on SETI.

arkayn, I appreciate your efforts. I downloaded and installed the xml files, etc. from lunatics. The event log show the following: Not sure how to interpret. Seems like it download some version 528 tasks (not gpu) and one version 611 (cuda_fermi) in slot 1. There are a lot of "discarding 603 errors followed by "vlar*_not found" errors, followed by "restarting of 528 tasks in "slots" and a single 611 task in slot 1. Not sure how to interpret. Is seti accessing the GPU or are things really broken? The "task list in boinc" is showing serverl 528 tasks of 13+ hours and one completed 6.11 and is running a new 6.11 task. ????????????????

Seti is now using your GPU and you have completed several work units so far. Still waiting for them to validate against your wingmate. The timed out WU's are because SETI does not run VLAR units on Nvidia GPU's.

arkayn, My understanding is that "5.28" applications are not gpu tasks. If this assumption is correct why would I be seeing them in a run state? Also my understanding is that jobs would be "GPU" only and not a mix of GPU and CPU. Also the 6.11 application shows in the manager shows "running (0.05 CPUs + 1 nvidia GPU)". Can you explain this. I really do appreciate you taking the time to respond. Ron http://www.usefulramblings.org ID: 1320152 · |

You have both CPU and GPU applications installed currently. The 5.28 tasks are for the CPU only while the 6.11 tasks are for the GPU only. If you only want to use the GPU, you will need to change your preference on here to only use it. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/prefs.php?subset=project BOINC has to use the CPU for a few seconds to load the work onto the GPU, so that is why it states (0.05 CPUs + 1 nvidia GPU).
