Can you please tell me why not sends astropulse tasks for me?
I participate in distributed computing more than a month. During that time, had never sends astropuls task. Although the status shows that the tasks are available (2 task now, but sometimes more)

(more details: http://i.piccy.info/i9/44439b1305ed573542c28c72f5d13586/1400537740/147685/748991/004.png)
Astropuls is enabled in project settings :

I read that it can not send task because computer weak.
I have a triple-core processor and 8GB of RAM. OS - Linux Kubuntu 14.04 LTS x64. Here are more detailed.

You already have one AstroPulse task (Sent 19 May 2014, your post 20 May 2014)

To increase your chances of getting AstroPulse tasks - change settings to:

SETI@home Enhanced: no
SETI@home v7: no
AstroPulse v6: yes
If no work for selected applications is available, accept work from other applications? yes

(the above will not stop you getting 'SETI@home v7')


If you have a capable GPU it will be much faster for AstroPulse, there are Linux apps for AstroPulse OpenCL on ATI and NVIDIA GPUs

BOINC do not detect a capable GPU ("Coprocessors ---") which may mean: old GPU, drivers do not support CUDA or OpenCL, BOINC can't find OpenCL drivers on too new Linux, ...
