Hi Everyone,

I've been running SETI on my Linux box (Ubuntu 1204 x64) for several years. A couple of years ago, I managed to get CUDA running on my graphics card.

Then several months ago, I started getting the following messages in my event log:
Wed 05 Mar 2014 12:31:03 PM EST | SETI@home | Message from server: Your app_info.xml file doesn't have a usable version of SETI@home v7.

I went to find updated V7 apps, but if I remember correctly, they were not yet available for Linux (or at least for x64 Linux).

I didn't do anything about it because I was still able to obtain V6 AP work units. I've gradually run out of all WUs with the exception of AstroPulse units. The problem now though, is that SAH seems to have run out of these work units as well and I am currently processing the last four that I have received.

I'm not sure where to begin at this point, but here are the first lines of my log.

My app_info file is in the directory:
home/BOINC/projects/setiathome.berkeley.edu.

Also within that directory are the following applications:
setiathome-6.11.x86_64-pc-linux-gnu_cuda32
ap_6.01r546_sse3_linux64
ap__5.06r411_sse3_linux64
AK_V8_linux64_sse3

Where can I go to get V7 compatible apps for 'normal seti WUs, Astro Pulse, and CUDA?

Thanks in advance,
Jon

Astropulse tasks aren't available for the next week or more. See https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=74200 for the news on that.

Actually they were just starting to get split when you posted this.

Thanks Arkayn!

I've got four CPU cores and two cuda AP processes running.
