Every time I get sent one of these (FGRPopencl-ati) it quickly fails - looks like this is because it's trying to allocate 256MB when the maximum possible is 128MB.
Is this fixable, or should I just disable this executable as an option?

Gamma-ray pulsar search #3 v1.11 (FGRPopencl-ati) failing on Lin

Perhaps along the same line here but also having problems with memory allocation failures but with Nvidia card.
History shows about 18 tasks that have failed of LATeah0092C_..... projects and 1 success past month all with same error message

PB0013_.... and PB0012_.... seems to be ticking along nicely.

What distro are you on? Is there any chance of you upgrading Boinc to 7.0.65, Boinc 7.0.27 has a Wacky Nvidia GPU memory reporting Bug, where eithier the available GPU memory or the Total GPU memory, or both, is reported wrong,
hence your GTX460 is reported as having 134214655MB total, and not 1024MB,

Currently on: Ubuntu

Currently on:

Ubuntu 12.04LTS
Linux 3.2.0-61-generic

I did not suspect boinc version or distro as possible cause since the binary radio pulse packages were running ok.

Will take a while before I can upgrade since some packages for climateprediction that still have about 155 hrs left to completion. Read that it is better to upgrade when you have no tasks on hand.

Been postponing upgrade since previous attempt not being to successful and ending up reverting to my current version 7.0.27.

Thanks for the suggestion.
