I rejoined the community after a very extended break to help with the COVID-19 effort. In setting up on a MacBook Pro with a (whitelisted) GeForce GT 750M Mac Edition, I'm unable to get the GPU to download a work unit even though the CPU slot is working fine (albeit intermittently due to the work unit shortage). In looking at the log (snippet below), it appears that the targeted server it's trying to download from is the problem.
Seeing as it's trying to connect to a reserved 192.0.* IP in order to download the work unit, well, that's never going to happen. Is the 192.0.* targeted IP a bug, or is this just a very roundabout way of saying that GPUs are still unsupported in the Mac client?
Searching around on the forums, I'm finding posts from a few years ago implying things were going in that direction – but nothing within the past year or so (or a clearly definitive statement regardless of year). If I can't put my GPU to use on this, that's fine (although disappointing as it's just sitting idle) – I'd just like to know if there's a fix or I'm wasting my time hunting for one.
Thanks in advance,
Brian
