V7 is showing up on application page now !

But, only CPU apps, i'm not surprised through, they'll want to populate the CPU app_version peak flop count average statistics before they put the GPU apps on.

Is that why having just upgraded BOINC and done a project reset on host 5833982 I am now getting both 6.03 and 6.10 tasks resent to run my GPU but not getting any CPU work at all?

No, that's because you're running anonymous platform on host 5833982, you can only do v6 tasks at the moment,

Note: 6.03 tasks are tasks that will be run by the CPU app, and 6.10 tasks are tasks that will be run on a GPU app, so you do have CPU tasks.

Yes but I had a 6.03 task running on the GPU and the CPU sitting idle! However, since the last server connection, all the tasks which were labelled 6.03 have been relabelled 6.10.

I think Boinc remembers the old version number of a Wu after a reset, by gets updated on the next scheduler request.

Sounds like it will be tomorrow for the gpu application(s)? I plan to go stock pending the installer next week, but don[t want to change over to the old v6 stock gpu app.

So... what could pfb stand for? The mb_splitters are no more, there's only ap_splitters and pfb_splitters. No explanation in the Glossary yet.

Probabily an "stupid" question, what i need to do to start crunching V7, i´m running CPU (Intel)/GPU x41zc apps. Anyone have a simple receipt? Thanks.

(edit) I´m allready enable V7 on preferences.

My recommendation (Subject to change after I try it) would be:
- Set No New tasks
- Wait until tasks all complete, upload & report
- delete app_info.xml from the project directory
- reset the project
- Allow New tasks

Extra notes: Probably need to check web options too in there somewhere [OK :)]. I'd try let the server decide amongst the compatible versions over some time with one instance per GPU (underutilised due to memory intensive Autocorrelations) then worry about multi instances after things settle in. You'd likely want either newer Recommended Boinc for that, or wait for installer for older Boinc clients to run with app_info (anonymous platform)
