In my case only one single test fails, but I was reassured by upstream that this is a problem of my laptop having a GPU that is just not up to the task. Probably the issue is similar in your case. What do you have in mind about the diagnostics? I could think of first checking whether the GPU supports OpenCL and only then run the tests. Otherwise it would print a message. I'll talk to upstream and see whether they have a suggestion on how to detect GPU programming support a priori. Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
