I see that Astropulse V7 is now available. At least it is now on the list for Applications to do. My question is What do put in as values for what apps to call in my App_info.xml I am doing CPU AP 601 and GPU AP 604 I am using an older AMD OPT app for CPU SSE3_CPU_AMD_r2148 and GPU is using AP6_win_x86_SSE2_OpenCL_NV_r2667 I am using Nvidia x64 337.88 and Boinc 7.4.22 Thanks in Advance Michael |

Do NOT process AP v7 work with AP v6 applications. If you want to get in on AP v7 immediately, revert to stock. A Lunatics installer with AP v7 applications will be available fairly soon, though. Some time is needed to be sure about the project settings, and to be reasonably sure no typos and such creep into a new installer. Joe |

That is what I wanted to know. I'll stay with V6 for now until apps are available Michael |

You answered my question, now my problem is will I run out of v6 before Lunatics v7 is available? |

I've just seen the AP v7 in seti preferences and checked it. I am on stock app, do I need to add it to my app_config.xml to start getting AP7? I've also noticed that's I've got seti enhanced on the preferences page, what's that? |

I've also noticed that's I've got seti enhanced on the preferences page, what's that? For those on stock, having Astropulse v7 checked for a host's venue at http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/prefs.php?subset=project is the only requirement to get work for that app when there's some available. Those who have never set any specific preferences should automatically get it, but BOINC assumes those who have chosen specific kinds of work only want that kind. Additions to app_config.xml can of course be made to control how your host deals with AP v7. SETI@home Enhanced was the application before SETI@home v7, similar processing but without the Autocorr search. Although an app needs to remain alive until all workunits for it have been completed, that preference selection is no longer needed. Presumably removing it has never risen to the top of anyone's todo list. Joe |

Thanks, I've added the below to the app_config.xml: <app> <name>astropulse_v7</name> <gpu_versions> <gpu_usage>0.33</gpu_usage> <cpu_usage>1.00</cpu_usage> </gpu_versions> </app> </app_config> and checked AP v7 in the preferences. I assume this would be everything that I need to do? |

Do NOT process AP v7 work with AP v6 applications. That sounds like it is for Windows. Is there Lunatics version in the works for 32 bit Linux as well? |

Beta applications suggests that there are, with GPU applications for 64-bit only. Soli Deo Gloria |

If there are no optimized applications available at the moment, then give at least a link to download the standard distribution AP7 application(s) for the anonymous platform users to be prepared. ;) Aloha, Uli |

Like i posted yesterday in another thread i will make some packages available after work. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Astropulse V7 packages are now available on my website. Please read included readme text carefully. Link You can use params from Astropulse V6 apps. For hardcore users with high skills new switches are available. I added some useful info to the readme file but thats for experts only. Use at your own risk. If any questions arises feel free to ask on the forums or via PM. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Do NOT process AP v7 work with AP v6 applications. Also we should NOT use AP v7 apps to process AP v6 work? SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the [url=http://tinyurl.com/8y46zvu]BP6/VP6 User Group[ |

Do NOT process AP v7 work with AP v6 applications. Yes, of course. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Do NOT process AP v7 work with AP v6 applications. @ Mike, Question for you about build numbers at Lunatics. |

An app_info example would be great aswell. Or is it copy paste from a AP6 config and just changing the numbers? If someone got a working AP7 app_info with new apps i would gladly try it aswell. _________________________________________________________________________ Addicted to SETI crunching!

An app_info example would be great aswell. Mike's packages include an 'AIstub' file - a segment of information in app_info.xml format which can be added to an existing app_info file to add AP V7 functionality. Add as many as you wish, for CPU and/or any of the three GPU manufacturers. No-one has tested them on the main project yet, because there's no work available - that's another reason why the installer will be slow arriving, because I need to test it with data after I've finished writing it. |
