Client suddenly stopped working

Post by kcramakrishna »

I have been running FAH for a few weeks now. I run this manually on Manjaro. I sometimes interrupt jobs midway when I need to shutdown my laptop and resume them later. For this, I 'pause' the job and then shut down the client and then the FAHControl. This has worked perfectly all the time.

I fold on the GPU (RTX 1070 Mobile) and have disabled CPU folding.

Yesterday, I interrupted a job at around 90% to shutdown the laptop. This morning, when I tried to restart the job, I get an error:
ERROR:No compute devices matched GPU #0 INTEL:1 [xxx]. You may need to update your graphics drivers.
I have no idea on why my Nvidia card/driver is not recognised. I tried setting GPU to 2 in config.xml but that did not work and I reverted to original config.xml

I did some googling and someone suggested doing a 'sudo clinfo'. Since this is my first post, I am not allowed to post URLs since this is my first post here but this was on the archlinux bbs

Code: Select all

bbs.archlinux.org slash viewtopic.php?id=254001
I did this too but there is no improvement.

Noticed something which I did not understand. See the message "NULL platform behavior" in the output below:

I don't remember updating any drivers or packages on my distro yesterday. Any ideas on what changed or how to fix this ?

Please post segments of FAH's log. We need the first couple pages of the log where FAH detects the hardware and sets it up plus segments showing applicable errors. What messages are you getting and what WUs were have you seen?

See instructions below.

As you can see, there is a new intel device detected and it is trying to use this device. I tried setting gpu-Id to '1' instead of '0' but that did not help.

I tried configuring again:

I am running hybrid driver. Let me check this:

Looks like this conflict may be an issue.

Let me remove the hybrid driver:

Realized that I don't seem to have 2 conflicting drivers but then why am I getting this error? I am of course posting to Manjaro forums about this but in case that is not resolved, can I still run FAH ?
(I updated to latest Linux 5.6 Kernel on Manjaro but that was on 11Apr and I have been folding successfully till about 24 hrs back. System is shut down every night.)

Please let me know if you need any more info.

I removed the driver conflict. Removed the hybrid driver and installed the regular driver:

Code: Select all

[kc@kc-manjaro FAHClient]$ sudo mhwd -r pci video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-440xx-prime  nvidia-440xx-utils
Error: config 'nvidia-440xx-utils' is not installed!
[kc@kc-manjaro FAHClient]$ sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia-440xx
!! Rebooted system and:

[kc@kc-manjaro FAHClient]$ sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300

No more conflicts.

Ran FAHClient --configure again and tried running the client. No improvement.

Computers with hybrid devices can present a real challenge unless you go into the BIOS and disable that function.

FAHClient 7.5.1 does not support folding on Intel GPUs. but that doesn't mean you don't have one. FAH needs to be able to detect your GPUs in a consistent manner.
According to this log, the INTEL GPU is GPU 0 and the NVIDIA GPU is GPU 1.
GPU 0: Bus:0 Slot:2 Func:0 INTEL:1 [xxx] GPU 1: Bus:1 Slot:0 Func:0 NVIDIA:7 TU106M [GeForce RTX 2070 Mobile]
CUDA Device 0: Platform:0 Device:0 Bus:1 Slot:0 Compute:7.5 Driver:10.2
OpenCL Device 0: Platform:0 Device:0 Bus:1 Slot:0 Compute:1.2 Driver:440.82

then your client indicates that SOMETHING HAS CHANGED.
ESC[91m00:25:22:ERROR:No compute devices matched GPU #0 INTEL:1 [xxx]. You may need to update your graphics drivers.
ESC[93m00:25:22:WARNING:WU00:No longer matches Slot 1's configuration and there are no other matching slots, dumping
The GPU that Slot 1 had prevously been configured for was GPU 0 when, in fact, it must have been what is not GPU 1.

You can reconfigure to fix this, but only if you'll always have the NVidia GPU recognized to be at GPU N for a particular N.

[SOLVED] Re: Client suddenly stopped working

Post by kcramakrishna »

Thanks for the info. I was swamped with work and could not get time to sort this out. I was folding on Windows (on the same hardware) for the past few days. Booted back into Manjaro today and tried to get things working. I succeeded in getting things working. Below is what I did:

(My initial problem was that it stopped working overnight without any changes to either my system or FAH settings. )

I updated my Manjaro system (which also updated my FAHControl and viewer.)
I tried configuring again:
[kc@kc-manjaro FAHClient]$ FAHClient --configure
This detected but still did not configure my GPUs.

Now, I opened FAHControl -> Configure -> Slots -> Add -> (radio button) GPU. I clicked on "Save" and presto, I see my Intel GPU.
I again went FAHControl -> Configure -> Slots -> Add -> (radio button) GPU and this time it added my nvidia GPU too.

I paused my CPU and Intel GPUs to prevent them running any jobs.

My nvidia GPU downloaded the job but is not running it.

I rebooted the system and tried folding again. Now both my CPU and nvidia GPU are folding well !!

I am getting the error for my Intel GPU but I have deleted this from my configuration to avoid FAH attempting to use it.

On deleting the intel GPU, somehow the configuration was screwed up and FAH was again trying to use the intel GPU and nvidia GPU was not showing up (again).

Again followed
FAHControl -> Configure -> Slots -> Add -> (radio button) GPU to add nvidia GPU.

Now paused folding on intel GPU (but did not delete it.)

Started folding again on nvidia. I think we should not delete the intel GPU from the config. Just put the intel GPU on 'Pause' permanently.

So right now everything is working well on my Manjaro installation. If anyone has an idea on why 'deleting' the intel GPU messes up the system, please let me know.

Re: Client suddenly stopped working

I would search on the manufacturer's website if there's an option in the bios (maybe a new one) to properly deactivate the Intel display adaptor.
Then there is a tool that might do the trick: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HybridGraphics
And this possibly too: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NV ... phics_only

And someone claims to have solved it with bumblebee here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/477765/ ... screte-gpu
It was fixed by installing nVidia driver version 331:

sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo apt-get install nvidia-331-updates-dev

Then installing bumblebee per the instructions here:

sudo apt-get install bumblebee bumblebee-nvidia primus

After a reboot, I was able to use my nVidia gpu for specific programs by using the 'optirun' command. :)
EDIT: I see that it works now, so my post is a bit deprecated. But glad you had it sorted!
