Unsupported GPUs: Show Error Message Instead of 192.0.2.1 Redirect #1309
Comments
It probably should be pointed out that the sequence of message
It seems to occur when there is no supported GPU detected, (such as on a Mac). |
Could you perhaps make a proper error message like "GPU type not supported" or with a actual reason why it is not supported"? I spent some time to figure out why my GPU was not supported either. I am sure a lot of people did/do... :-) |
Hi, This week I also tried to use my GPU with foldingathome in my fresh Debian 10. My graphics card (Radeon HD 6750) seems to be detected, and I think it's also whitelisted at GPUs.txt file. However, no WU are being assinged, and I also receive the error pointed out in this issue. My config file includes a passkey and some WU are being currently processed with CPU. Isn't it enough to have a GPU listed in GPUs.txt to start folding? Thanks! |
I am also experiencing this bug: (this is absurd; permanently unassigned IPs ever be attempted as work servers? I don't see why
|
I think I came up with a pretty good workaround:
|
Same issue here. Don't know if my graphics card is not supported or what. |
One of the problems in the above thread is busy work servers, which are a big problem these days to to the prodigious growth of the project. Note to FAHclient team: is 192.0.xxx.xxx a bogus reported IP address? Are obsolete graphics cards configured and accepted, only to not work? |
That IP Address is reported when a macOS system adds a GPU Slot. Since the GPUs.txt file is shared across all the OS, a GPU that works in Windows & Linux will not work in macOS as the OS doesn't support GPU folding. |
Getting similar error to OP on Windows 10 machine:
Is there a workaround for Win10? Note that there is a retry looks like every 5 hours. There is also some chatter about this at the foldingforum.org. |
This was the comment in the folding forum. It looks like in my case the graphics card (Radeon HD 6870) does not meet the current FAH requirements (openCL1.2 + double precision).
|
There are 3 issues discussed above.
If the Mac only has an (unsupported) iGPU then GPUs.txt will exclude it from being configured or at least report that it can't find the GPU. That's another area where the client needs to be more helpful. At the present time, there are no Intel GPUs listed and there are very few Mac's with supported AMD or NVidia dGPUs. |

Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 |
@SoNickRND NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580, same situation here except I did not take one week off. My graphics card has been crushing F@H units the past six weeks, and just started throwing the exact same error message earlier today. In fact, I found this post by copying/pasting that error message into Google. |
|
Sure, Which thread should I post it? |
Yes @SoNickRND please ensure you're running the latest version available (7.6.13 at the time of writing). Bugs may have been fixed in the meanwhile |
@SoNickRND I did a quick search at the forum: make your choice https://foldingforum.org/search.php?keywords=Connecting+to+192.0.2.1%3A80 |
@SoNickRND @pcnetworx1 |
i have the same problem with a Dell branded "Caicos [AMD RADEON HD 6450]" 1GB card running FAH standard version 7.6.9 in Windows 10 Pro x64. 😿 |
@petesimon |
Problem occurs with NAVI 14 based GPU with 7.6.13. |
Same with AMD Radeon RX 480 in Fedora with the ROCm OpenCL installation. Finished a unit today in the morning and didn't get another one. |
Hi there, 23:07:14:WU02:FS03:Connecting to assign1.foldingathome.org:80 I think that the problem is in "assign1.foldingathome.org:80" server. |
Same problem with RX 570 and fahclient_7.6.13_amd64, freshly installed on a Linux 4.15.0-36-generic #39~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 25 08:59:23 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux. Can please somebody check assign1.foldingathome.org? 15:18:51:WU00:FS00:Connecting to assign1.foldingathome.org:80 Edit/2020-08-12 |
@Thermi , @tradej , @megs-rs & @berndkuennen Assuming your GPUs support OpenCL 1.2 and Double Precision, they will fold. If you're encountering issues, please head over to the Official Forum (https://foldingforum.org/index.php) for troubleshooting. There are many members there to help you investigate and hopefully, resolve your issue(s) 😃 |
Having the same issue, since updating from the AUR with an RTX 2080. Always get directed to Deleting the GPU slot and setting it to auto-configure makes it work for the current session, after reboot it seems to break again. |
Could someone edit the title of this issue to something along the lines of
I believe it would help a lot of the people stumbling across this thread And, @Mithrandir2k18, go to the New GPUs (whitelist) section of the Forum to report this. |
The message series
In fact 192.0.2.1 cannot be a Work Server and I'm not sure why the client code thinks it might be.
Then, too, a system with
should not be configured with a FAH GPU. The integrated GPU (AMD:4) is not supported nor is the Seymour GPU (AMD:4) as they do not support Double Precision, so they cannot be assigned Mixed Precision WUs which is all we're currently supplying.
