This may be old news and I understand that '24 is a development version. However, when I changed from 6.10.18 to '24 I noticed that one of my cpu's stopped working except when a CUDA project was going on.

I can always change back to the stable version but wanted to report the situation. OH, p.s., I am a SETI guy but ran out of projects due to server problems, I guess.

Not sure what you are trying to report, or why you want to do so at Einstein@Home... Which isn't the BOINC Alpha email list.

You will have to explain whatever you see, whatever you expected to see and enable all the correct debug flags for BOINC to show the behaviour you're saying you see, for us to understand. We don't see anything from the below list, other than that you use the local preferences, which disable the GPU while the computer is in use.

REMINDER TO ALL ALPHA TESTERS:
It's far easier for us to fix problems if you send message logs with the appropriate flags set. The main flags are:

: problems involving the choice of applications to run.
: problems involving work fetch (which projects are asked for work, and how much).
: problems involving jobs being run in high-priority mode.
: problems involving short term debt.

Use these flags from the cc_config.xml file.
