I've got first that failed: 37057616
This is a Pentium D930 with WinXP, it has also one succesful WU, both were started with stock 4.26 and finished with 4.32.

This machine had a few incidents of similar errors when S5R3 started with stock applications, those errors did not happen with stock 4.26 application anymore.

4.32 is running well on: 2

4.32 is running well on:

2 PIII's with win98se
1 PIV with win98se
3 Athlon XPs with win98se
1 Core Duo with XP Media Center Edition
1 Athlon 64 X2 with XP Pro

All have credit granted on several wus with 4.32 - no failures.

All seem faster.

From here looks like a really good app - good work!!

I noticed the following: I only have the sphere with the L's, dots and lines. It's not showing my data, where it's looking on the sphere and the orange marker is also nowhere to be seen.

Something in the graphics themselves? I can remember that it worked in 4.26
stdoutdae.txt is empty about this. No error messages about it either.

Link to example picture.


This looks like the graphics program doesn't get any progress information from the main program.

In stderr of your results there are lines like:

Quote:
2008-02-11 07:42:28.7812 [debug]: Set up communication with graphics process.


This means that from the side of the main application all is working well.

Could you try to use the graphics App from 4.26? Either rename the version number to 4.32 or replace the entry in the app_info.xml.

Has the same effect as the 4.32 graphics have. I'm still losing half the information. I wonder if this is a bug in the core client, especially since I can't see any BOINC 5 graphics either (not even with the desktop workaround).

Running with the screen saver debug flag on in cc_config.xml:
21-Feb-08 13:42:14||[scrsave_debug] ACTIVE_TASK::check_graphics_mode_ack(): got graphics ack for h1_0838.85_S5R3__539_S5R3b_0, previous mode

At least it's taking up no CPU cycles this time. :-)

Which he later found out that the server rejected the work simply because he did not see the merits of / decided to not participate in social networking... :P

I must've had mud in my eyes the last time I tested the graphics. I uninstalled BOINC 6.1.8 and went back to 6.1.7, as the BOINC 5 compliant graphics worked in that one. They still do work in that one, but the Einstein sphere shows the same lack of information as I had with 6.1.8

I'll run this 4.32 to its end, then stop and take the app_info.xml out and test again with the stock 4.26 application. See what that one does. To be continued...

seeing without seeing is something the blind learn to do, and seeing beyond vision can be a gift.
