Hi,

I upgraded to SetiV8 today, but now I am only processing CPU work units. What do I have to do to get the GPU running again.

Thanks in advance.

Have patience. There is no Linux Nvidia GPU application yet, not as a stock application and not as an optimized/third party application. It's still being tested over at Seti Beta.

Is this also the case for intel iGPU's? I noticed on my dual boot laptop that I was getting Seti GPU workunits in windows but not in Linux.

There is no Intel OpenCL driver for Linux available, only a third party option called Beignet.
So until Intel releases OpenCL drivers for (all kinds of) Linux, or Beignet gets supported all around, there is really no use for the developers here to spend time and money on developing an application that isn't going to be supported anyway.

Changed my GPU from nvidia to Ati/AMD today (on Linux). But Boinc says "No usable GPUs found". What did I do wrong?

Did you uninstall the Nvidia drivers?
Did you install the AMD drivers?
When you use clinfo, does it find the GPU and does it show it's OpenCL capable?

By the way, which Linux?
