Whay it download app if it is restriced. It not find x86 opencl file because folder locations different in x64

App itself not get opencl file info because it look it another place but it not look it on both folders.
Boinc itself detect x64 file but we needed 32bit one. Drivers supply both files.


I meant the problem is restricted to 64bit machines.

RE: 3 gentoo 64bit boxes

3 gentoo 64bit boxes all with the same problem and they are crunching openCL wus for poem and primegrid - exit with code 255 - unable to get openCL info - error -1

FYI, those projects don't use BOINC's OpenCL features at all. As far as I know we are the first project trying to get a fully BOINC-compliant OpenCL implementation going, including OpenCL device management controlled by BOINC, not the app. The error you experience is related to that and we're already aware of it and are investigating it as we speak.

HV Margus* and Trog Dog: do you have multiple GPUs in your systems or just one?

Cheers,
Oliver

I have no idea whether poems

Message 79032 in response to message 79031

I have no idea whether poems app is a fully boinc compliant app, but they certainly use the boinc opencl detection features - as stated in this thread - to be able to get and run the opencl app you need a 7.0.x client.

As to the number of gpus each of my 3 boxes only has a single gpu.

May I suggest that you release a 64bit opencl app, if that works (at least detects the opencl features) then the problem lies in the detection of 32bit capabilities on a 64bit machine.

Ok, fair enough.

Not anytime soon due to our current time constraints. However, there are successful results from 64-bit Linux systems, so it's not a general issue.

For those of you on Linux who have the AMD APP SDK installed alongside the AMD Catalyst drivers, please make sure you follow the order as details in the AMD developer release notes (chapter 2).

HTH,

There is no needed anymore

There is no needed anymore APP sdk Because 11.12 and 12.1 catalyst supply all sdk OpenCL files. Whay the poem@home work it is opencl too. Installing top 12.1 catalyst the APP SDK broke the system. I test that stupid thing installing SDK then 12.1 as they say that.

Still no go i dont know what dodo. Installed app sdk 2.6 and then a catalyst 12.1
7.0.14

I don't have the SDK

I don't have the SDK installed, one box has Catalyst 11.12 and the other two 11.11 which provides the opencl drivers. I also have 32bit version of libGLU.so installed as mentioned in the developer release notes.

Maybe we can get some feedback from those successfully returning results from 64bit linux machines with ATI/AMD gpus.
