I've recently reset E@H due to too many tasks due to time out before completion.
Didnt want to waste cpu time and wingmans time by waiting them out.

I went through my prefs and de selected GWs6lineVeto WU's, but guess what I now have a good few anyway.

However I cannot get any GPU apps..

Server keeps saying check your prefs, the only WU not selected dont relate AFAIK to GPU tasks.

Regards,

getting WU not applied for

Have a look at the server log:

Then read this message from the developers and the one immediately before it.

You need to revert to an earlier NVidia driver on host 4695229.

Hi Richard, Well

Hi Richard,
Well spotted that man:-) I'll have a look at my store of nvidia gforce drivers and see if I still have 285.nn

Now that explains why no cuda WU but what explains the not selected WU's?

Because you didn't need any. CPU: req 0.00 sec, 0.00 instances; est delay 0.00

You can always download the older drivers from http://www.nvidia.co.uk/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-uk

What I've been told is that the Gravitational Wave Search is what pays E@H's bills (being the work that their grants are for), so even if you de-select the GW or LineVeto apps, they'll still continue to push them to clients.

In my personal case, I found it a bit obnoxious, since on one of my machines it's a complete and total waste of bandwidth, given that they all error out pretty much instantly.
