It's absolutely half-baked. 7.0.40 was the first attempt at Intel GPU detection, and I think it was "released" before any BOINC developer could actually test it themselves on such a system. Rom had a chat session with Tank_Master testing the client and some custom test patches, and more changes have been made in the official code since then. I guess it'll work much better on the next version. However, the reporting as ATI is simply a cosmetic error in the logged messages, and shouldn't affect the actual behavior. And it's already fixed in git (9a6b97c9). > So, seriously, how Intel GPU should be called in app_info ? As far as I know, nobody has tried to get an application to actually run yet. For now they're just testing the detection of the GPU and its capabilities. -- Nicolás _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
