No, I put the sequence in its own block.  Your suggestion, which I
completely missed in the documentation, fixed the problem.  Thank you.

You were careful to put that in an <options> block, rather than a
<log_flags> block, I presume?

Thanks a lot.



If anyone is interested, all the recent astropulse_v6 version 604
(opencl_nvidia_100) apps

on the beta site are erroring out on NVidia GeForce GTS 250 cards.  I have
tried four

different GTS/GTX GeForce 250 cards, and two different display drivers,
version

320.49 and 327.23, the latter being the most recent.  The error pattern is:



Start astropulse_v6 app(1) on GPU

Runs for ~1:33 minutes: seconds

Desktop posts a message: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
(version, e.g., 327.23)

There is a watchdog timeout error in the Event log, but it contains no
useful information that I can find.

The affected WU(1) goes into a scheduler wait 

A different WU(2) is started with the same app

WU(2) is processed for ~1:33, the display driver stops, WU(2) is put on
scheduler wait, and the AP app goes back to WU(1)

WU(1) starts from the beginning (0:00 time) and runs for ~1:33

This cycle repeats indefinitely until eventually the WU is aborted.



When the WU is being processed on the GTS 250, the GPU runs very hot, ~180
F.  The only way

I could cool the card was by placing a large Honeywell fan (picture: 

http://www.kaz.com/kaz/fans/products/honeywell-turbo-force-room-air-circulat
or-ht-908/)

a few inches from the GPU with the air stream playing directly on it.  Then
it runs at about 120 F.

I have been using these 250 GPUs, on a different motherboard, for several
months and this is

the first time this problem (including the overheating in the summer months)
has 

appeared.  The 250 replaces a 460, which is in the shop.  The 

other GPU in the system is a 550 Ti, which is not having any trouble with
the AP WUs.



The "Tasks" page for Computer ID 58103 indicates that most of the AP WUs
that errored

on ID 58103 also errored out or were aborted on other NVidia GPUs, although
some

were successful on ATI GPUs.
