In setting up my AQUA app_info today, I also found that I had to allow the 
appropriate application in project preferences. This was unexpected new 
behaviour for someone brought up on the SETI way of doing things, but I 
think it's a good idea.

As to needing to allow CPU work for a GPU app - some wires are crossed 
there. Either the options have been set the wrong way round - and I've seen 
that before, on another "young" project: perhaps the documentation isn't as 
unambiguous as it should be - or there's a problem with the server code.

Since Travis started this thread, perhaps he could double-check the 
preference settings.
