WOW! Guys I just downloaded the Berkeley package and ran it's script
which installs into /home/skip/BOINC ("skip" being my user account).
from the default home/skip prompt I typed "BOINC/run_client" and then
"BOINC/run_manager" and it started each up in a terminal. In the
run_client window I saw that it RECOGNIZED my HD58xx card:
14-Aug-2010 17:05:22 [---] ATI GPU 0: ATI Radeon HD5800 series (Cypress)
(CAL version 1.4.736, 1024MB, 1915 GFLOPS peak)
So I attached to DNETC (only, I normally use BAM).. it downloaded and is
running one ATI WU and 4 CPU WUs!
So it's NOT a driver problem at all and it's not related to the client
starting before GDM issue we've discussed before.
Since I have v10.04 x64 Xubuntu running via /etc/init.d/boinc-client
with the PPA v6.10.58 and nvidia card/drivers this appears to be purely
related to some ATI library thing.
I'm back to the permissions thing but I befuddled by that because the
System-->Admin-->Users & Groups in v10.04 no longer lists the other user
accounts on the system so I don't know how to look and see what "boinc"
has access to. Thinking maybe it needs access to the "video" group or
something.
Daniel (or anyone) do you have any suggestions of what I could do to get
the Debian/Ubuntu scripts to work again... I much prefer those to the
Berkeley method/folders used.
Thanx, Skip
