I'll leave a note for those who are having trouble starting FAH after updating. You should do pacman -Rs foldingathome and install again. This will create the fah-client user.

My GTX1050 stopped working between 7.6.9-7 and 7.6.9-8. Adding ExecStart=/usr/bin/clinfo back to foldingathome-nvidia.service fixes it.

I've lost GPU folding on updating to the latest release :(

My logs show the following rather interesting few lines:

18:58:25:           GPUs: 0
18:58:25:  CUDA Device 0: Platform:0 Device:0 Bus:1 Slot:0 Compute:6.1 Driver:10.2
18:58:25:OpenCL Device 0: Platform:0 Device:0 Bus:1 Slot:0 Compute:1.2 Driver:440.82

Not wholly sure how it's working that one out... anyone have any ideas? I have a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060. foldingathome-nvidia is enabled, and says "Succeeded" in the logs. The 60 second wait is working, too, as I've watched it happening.

May you replace the dependencies opencl- with opencl-driver? It's a generic name that all opencl- packages provide, however you miss several providers from the array, it would be cleaner to use opencl-driver straight away :) see foldingathome-beta

In the end, to update I didn't wait for the WUs to finish, since the new versions were basically contained the changes you already suggested and that I already made.

Thus, I can confirm that version 7.6.9-8 works flawlessly for me! :)

@alucryd: 7.6.9-8 still working fine for me :)

Alright, I added the 60s sleep and removed the clinfo line. Hopefully this make it work for everybody.

Pezlu commented on 2020-04-22 11:57 (UTC)

@alucryd: I removed the clinfo invocation and everything is still working

@keithy @Pezlu Awesome, thanks for the feedback! 60s is probably fine for most, if not all people. One last thing I'd like you to try if you find the time, is to remove the clinfo invocation from the nvidia service, I did on my desktop, and the delay was enough to get everything working.

@alucryd: I'm still on 7.6.9-6, and after adding ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/sleep 60 to the service file everything works fine! I've not fiddled (yet) with the delay length, however. I can try reducing it later if needed.

PS: I'll update to the latest version after finishing the current WUs... considering my ancient GPU, it will take a while!
