[Bug 587426] Re: No GPU found

[Skip Guenter]

I thought this was working this morning as after creating
/etc/gdm/custom.conf and rebooting (but not logging on) I was able to go
to another machine and remote gui in and saw GPU WUs running!  Applied
the change to my other ATI machines (v9.10 & V10.10 but all running
v6.10.58 boinc).  All seemed good.

Tonight I see that I have a large batch of comp errors on Collatz and
DNetC WUs.  Got new WUs and they started comping out in a few seconds.
Suspended projects, did a sudo /etc/init.d/boinc-client restart and
unsuspended the projects and they're off and running again.

Right now at least, it appears to me the 'xdmcp and export DISPLAY' fixes will allow a PREVIOUSLY started GPU WU to restart when boinc starts up (user not logged in) but new WUs still don't seem to be able to start.

Here are the WU errors from DNETC:
