Hello , iam waiting to start crunshing for gpu-tasks.

Iam waiting here for about, let me think, 10+ hours !?

Is there a reason to crunsh in Beta at first to
speed up completion the finaly gpu programm ?

And of course, i got no HD 4xxx anymore. It have been light up. :D

Greetings

21st means 21st in Berkeley - they are on GMT-8 or 9 hours behind German time. I don;t think you'd be working at 3am ;)

If all goes to plan we expect apps to be released in the morning (Berkeley time) that's late evening for Europe. You should start to get GPU tasks some time in the night then.

Thanks for the offer of beta, but the development cycle is almost finished - unless you have a Mac on offer, preferably with an NV card?
We've covered the mainstream hardware, but some less used areas still need testing.


Und nochmal auf Deutsch:

21. bedeutet 21. in Berkeley und die sind auf UTC-8 oder 9 Stunden früher als MEZ. Du würdest um 3 in der früh sicher auch nicht arbeiten ;)

Wir erwarten, sofern alles planmäßig verläuft, daß die GPU Apps am Morgen (Berkeley Zeit) erscheinen. Das wäre dann am späten Abend in Europa. Du solltest im Laufe der Nacht GPU Tasks erhalten.

Danke für das Angebot Beta zu machen, aber wir sind fast fertig, ausser Du hättest einen Mac mit ner NV Karte?
Wir haben die Standardhardware abgedeckt, aber einige seltenere Kombinationen brauchen noch mehr Tests.

iam sorry...no mac available here, many NV cards, and a HD 6950 too, an ARM Odroid for example , thats all i got.

btw, will a emulated system do the trick ? Maybe a trialversion of MAC OS for example, running on a PC in Virtual Mode ?

If you have fun experimenting you could give it a try, but for the purposes of beta testing for Eric, it would need to be a native Mac.
Thanks again.

NB most people attach to beta with a small resource share or periodically check if something is being tested and allow some tasks then. It helps if you can watch hosts doing beta and report any anomalies there.
