Quadro K620 on Ubuntu 18.04

It seems that a lot of GPU problems revolve around specific versions of drivers. Though NVidia has their own support structure, you can often learn from information reported by others who fold.

Quadro K620 on Ubuntu 18.04

Post by ScreechXIIV »

Hi all

I have an older machine that im am trying to put to work that has 2 Quardro K620s in it but FAH will not recognize them no what drivers I select. I am running Ubuntu 18.04.

Every time I try to add a gpu I get a "On client "local" 127.0.0.1:36330: No available GPUs"

The system info tab shows that i have 0 GPUs but 2 cuda devices and 2 opencl devices. But I am unable to get either of my cards added.

Please help

In the client, if you click on config and go to the expert tab, do you see a variable that says something like"GPU=false"? If so, set it to true and reboot.

Welcome to Folding@home!

Your card should be supported as It runs OpenCL 1.2 and does Double Precision floating point math.

It was introduced in 2014 so I would be surprised if it was not in the whitelist. On the other hand it is a workstation card not a gamer card so it may have a small audience.

For me to help more I would need the first 200 lines of your log so I could see what the software thinks your PC looks like.

That did the trick. I set gpu to true and restarted my machine. After the restart I was able to add both of my gpus and everything is now working.

Thank you everybody for your help
