And it looks like we are starting to come back up....
Crickets showing some life again, just completed some uploads and reported.

Anyone else having trouble reporting ?
Uploads are going through ok but Scheduler requests are timing out.

T.A.

I have Boinc client 7.0.31 installed on windows 7 x64

I am also running x41x miltibeam for gpu app

Since the outage my 460 gtx is now taking 1.5 hours to complete two tasks

It usually takes 15 minutes

Now I was wondering what was happening as I hope I did not blow my card.
It does not heat up to its normal temps when crunching

My task manager is showing the six cpu apps running and the two x41x tasks running but that is all.

I am hoping it is the server doing this and not poor 460 gtx which has been my main crunching unit

We've released the first of four new AstroPulse Windows applications for ATI/AMD Graphics Processing Units that support the OpenCL language. If you've got an one of these GPUs you may be able to process AstroPulse results 15x faster than your CPU alone. If your computer supports a version, it should get it automatically.

The first release supports ATI GPUs on BOINC 7.0.25 or later. The second release (probably next tuesday) will support ATI GPUs on BOINC versions prior to 7.0.25.

Got 6870 cf and no work, is it because i'm runnin on boinc 6.12.34 x64.
Ati driver is 12.6

I assume it will be almost impossible to go AP only now when AP GPU is going stock.

Snafu. It's Friday after all. A weekend with a fully working SETI system, is unheard of.

Prepare for empty caches and tears.

LOL

Something's off.

Getting lots of 'good server, bad server and dead server' issues when trying to download tasks alongside lots of scheduler timeouts.

ETA sticking uploads as well.

Searched the event log and noticed this took about 9 sec to come down the pipe. I have never noticed an AP come down this fast even using FIOS @ 25/25 MB.

02/05/2012 22:32:10 | SETI@home | Finished download of ap_15oc11ad_B6_P1_00079_20120205_26750.wu

I may have said this, or similar stuff a few times before, but I will say it again:

For all that is holy, gimme some AP's please.

I don't who/what opened the flood gates, but I just d/l'ed approx 50 tasks in about 20 seconds. It usually takes that long to d/l one task. Highest transfer was at 165 kbs; highest I ever seen for SETI even though I have seen Milkway come in at nearly 2000.

Initial AP-only cache building is a painful process, but it'll get there eventually.

Careful with that - the installer will create a fresh app_info.xml, and will not preserve your manual entries for AP r521. So preserving your existing one will help you re-create your customised setup.

But the AP r521 files are available for installation with this installer too - just tick the appropriate boxes on your way past for a fresh copy. That's easier than recovering the old files.

No
Where the hell is that?
I cannot find it

There are several places in app_info.xml where you need to change
<count>1</count>
to:
<count>0.5</count>

I have done this but it only runs one task at a time anyway no matter how efficiently. it does a seti app in about 30 minutes while using MB of vram.
why, even when I change the app_info.xml file does it not run 2 tasks at a time? It's like it just ignores it. is there something else I need to do like put the lunatics file in a specific place or run a specific program?
