GPU Assigned to Odd Work Server

Post by jcooke212 »

When starting F@H my GPU is assigned to work server 192.0.2.1 and fails to connect over and over. I've attached the portion of the logs in question. Running on the current LTS release of Ubuntu, any help would be appreciated.

Code: Select all

That indicates that FAH did not configure a GPU for any one of several reasons and you cannot add a GPU slot without one.

Best guess: You're not running the proprietary drivers and/or don't have a working OpenCL runtime environment.

As per https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/nvs-3100m.c1468 possibly no FP64 (double point) ?? … Posting the head (say top 200 lines) of log (instructions in sig block above) may help

The GPU is identified as running on a GT218 chip, not all entries include the chip type. That is a Tesla chip from nVidia, no GPUs based on Tesla series chips can be used for GPU folding, and have not been usable for a number of years. The minimum is a GPU based on the Fermi series that followed the Tesla chips.
