Folding Forum

I got a passkey but apparently, I am losing all my so far earned credit points.
Any way to keep the points?

Thanks!

Hello and thanks for your replies.
I am using Ubuntu Linux for the folding.
Any idea how to limit processor speed there?
As for the cooling, I use a good Noctua cooler and fan.

Hello,

many thanks for your reply.
No, I am not using the GPU folding, only CPU as my PC would be to hot to survive.

Hello, I see huge disconnects in counting the credits on the stats page for my account compared to the credit estimates given for a specific work units. In detail, on my Ryzen 7 5700G I get for some WU credit estimates of about 200000 points. When the WU finishes, the final credit estimates is more ...

But I also confirmed now that the old kernel is unstable for the computations with the latest version of fah or the distribution of Ubuntu.

So, any ideas to get Ubuntu working with fah with GPU support on the current kernel?

Many thanks!

I digged into it a bit deeper and it seems that the new opencl driver on ROCr and ROCm do not work with folding@home.
I installed an older version 20.40 with pal as mode for opencl and the old kernel 5.4.0-54 and this works perfectly with opencl.

Lets see what the AMD guys say.

I meanwhile tried with the AMD ROCr drivers but this shows the same: Below is the complete log for now: *********************** Log Started 2021-10-07T18:29:25Z *********************** 18:29:25:******************************* libFAH ******************************** 18:29:25: Date: Oct 20 2020 18:29:...

Hello, I had to do a new fresh install of Ubuntu Server 20.04.3 LTS on my AMD Ryzen 7 4750G Pro. To enable the utilization of the iGPU I chose to install the ROCm packages which were recommended in another post of this forum. The install went well and after some reboots the output of rocminfo clinfo...

Thanks for the answer.
Looks like no way to wrok around this except for killing overwhelming WUs.

BTW: There have been no beta-packages of the software for some time now. Don't they develop it any further at the moment?

Hello, I have been folding for some time now and also bought a little PC with the AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 4750G CPU which now works quite well. The folding on this CPU for the CPU part works quite well, but the folding on the integrated GPU, which up to now was o.k. now gets an issue. For some about a week ...

I just limited the cpu usage to 4 cores and now the client stays within the limited and it seems that the WU is now much faster. Apparently now only the high-power cores are used for the fah client

Hello, I am new to this forum although I have been folding for about a year. Now I stumbled about an issue with one of my workhorses which are folding. It is the above mentioned Odroid N2 with Armbian on it running the folding client 7.6.21 on all cores for some time now. Nevertheless for the last f...
