PrimeGrid warnt vor Nvidia-Treiber
Verfasst: 07.05.2018 08:00
Hier warnt ein PrimeGrid User vor dem Nvidia-Treiber 397.31, der die Grafikkarte nach einer Weile blockiert, was nur durch einen Neustart behoben werden kann - dem dasselbe Verhalten natürlich erneut folgt.
Es wird angenommen, daß das Problem nicht nur PrimeGrid betrifft.
PrimeGrid selbst nimmt das Problem ernst genug, um eine Nachricht über Boinc auszusenden:
"PrimeGrid: Do not use Nvidia driver 397.31
It has come to my attention that Nvidia recently released a new video driver that is causing widespread problems. 397.31 seems to cause the GPU to become inaccessible to both CUDA and OpenCL programs after a while, and can only be reset by rebooting the computer. It's likely this affects all BOINC projects and not just PrimeGrid. Indeed, it probably affects all GPU programs, even those that don't run under BOINC. There's a newer, hotfix driver 397.55 which seems to correct the problem. I strongly recommend either upgrading to 397.55 or rolling back to a driver earlier than 397.31."
Muß leider los - keine Zeit, um noch schnell zu übersetzen.
