Would someone please tell me why I'm not getting any Einstein task?

If you could, would you tell us what Einstein tasks you're trying to run?  Some are either out of work, or have quit entirely.

Also, the Einstein tasks do not show anything that you may have accomplished, but I wonder what your Einstein Preferences are set to.  Is it possible for you to take a snapshot of your preference page?

If you are using the web settings for preferences, the last setting made is the setting for all projects.  If you use the local settings, then you can change any setting without affecting the other projects.

Let's start there and then go on if every thing is alright.

No you can't copy and paste from the Boinc Manager except in the Event Log, you have to manually type your settings in here. One thing you could do though is to get Einstein to ask for new tasks and then go to the Event Log and copy and paste the lines starting where you ask for tasks and ending where it says no you aren't getting any.

Are you getting tasks from any other Boinc Project?

The easiest way to work out why you are not getting any work these days is to look at the full response sent to your machine each time it makes a work request.

Just go to your account on the website and look at your computers list.  On the far right side is a column labelled "Last Contact" which contains a clickable link to the most recent response.  Click that link and read what the response says.  I've just quickly browsed the latest response and (very briefly) it says:-

  1. You are not asking for any CPU work
  2. You are asking for 129600.00 seconds of Intel GPU work (you don't have a discrete GPU).
  3. Various 'plan class' types are tried and reasons are given why you don't get tasks.
  4. There are plan classes for Intel GPUs that are excluded based on driver version
  5. There is a "plan class OK" for one particular type of Intel GPU work but that is excluded because you don't allow beta test work in your preferences.

I guess you used to run FGRPB1 tasks on your Intel GPU.  They finished quite a few months ago so you need either to allow CPU tasks instead or to allow beta test type tasks if you wish to just use the Intel GPU.  Note that I just briefly scanned to full scheduler response so there may be other options in that output that I've glossed over.

Cheers,
Gary.
