I think I found a clue. I just downloaded a ton of MB workunits and my GPU is happily crunching away on this task:

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=1149399409

It froze at about 6% but I noticed something this time. It froze exactly at the same time as BOINC switched tasks from one of my AP workunits to a Milkyway@home workunit. Perhaps there is a bug in which the Seti CUDA client hangs when the CPU client switches from one task to another?

Task hung as soon as it started.

It seems again to have hung as another task was resumed. Here is a copy of the log:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Task 06dc08af.5377.5391.14.8.115_1 is the one that hung. Note how as soon as it started, the Einstein task restarted, and that's when the Seti task hung.

Restarting BOINC resumed the task.

I don't know whether this is similar behaviour as reported here, but I guess the title of the thread applies to my 'problem' as well ....

I'm running Raistmer's 'team' version 8 on a stock q6600 and 2 gt8800's (of which only the first is used).

Boinc 6.4.5 with the cc_config.xml fix for 5 cpu's, 180.48 drivers (probably not the newest, but they seem to work okay) on 32-bit Windows XP Professional sp3.

Usually everything is fine, and I haven't seen the behaviour where a cuda wu gets stuck somewhere in the middle of crunching. What I do see, however, is wu's getting stuck in the initial phase after approx. 1 second of cpu time. Suspending and resuming doesn't help (when I do that Boinc starts a fifth task on the cpu :-) and I have to resort to aborting the unit.

Is there a way to avoid this? Or is the only way to run the 'hanging wu killer script' that was described some time ago?

Might the 'old' driver version have something to do with it? I'm hesitant to just go ahead with a driver update, I have had some nasty experiences with that in the past and when everything seems to work I usually shy away from unnecessary driver updates :-)

Regards,
John.

...Suspending and resuming doesn't help (when I do that Boinc starts a fifth task on the cpu :-) and I have to resort to aborting the unit...

What about stopping and restarting the BOINC client? Perhaps that would help avoid aborting of the task (just guessing here:-).

Gundolf

Task hung at %2.085. I had previously suspended the Seti project so I could play a 3d game without CUDA interfering. The task hung the instant I resumed the project.

Suspending and resuming the task failed. Had to restart BOINC manager to get it running again.

Edit - Task froze a second time at 13.956%. This time, suspending and resuming the task worked.
