stuck on waiting for idle

Post by SteveWillis »

Not sure where to put this
Linux mint 17.3
client 7.4.4 since the beta wouldn't install on this version of linux

I was watching a video so set the folding slot for my main GPU to on idle by right clicking on that slot
When I finished with the video the slot refused to change back to regular folding no matter what I tried to do.
Figured I'd delete and recreate the slot but that didn't work either.
Rebooted the pc and now there is an extra work queue stuck on ready status
Not sure what I need to do
It's always something, isn't it?
FWIW

Code: Select all

Re: stuck on waiting for idle

Post by bruce »

In the FAHControl client, go to Configure + Slots + (select 1GPU) + EDIT + (select the line that says "idle true") + remove.

Back out with OK and save. The slot will now run whether your computer is idle or not.

Re: stuck on waiting for idle

the fundamental question is whether you want the idle setting or not. It's purpose is to (A) pause that slot when your system is active and (B) resume folding on that slot when your keyboard/mouse is not being used. That's good for video games because of B. You'll always see "waiting for idle" because you have to use your mouse to see that setting. Manually setting pause/fold works too, but you have to remember to do it every time.

I tried using it when I wanted to watch a video without it glitching up. I used idle instead of pause because almost without fail I forget to take it off pause when I'm finished. I do have a script set up to pause the GPUs for an hour then fold again and I guess I'll just have to use that.
