Finally got it working, but tried lots of info from different pages,
and would get all kinds of different messages.
Cleared out everything, and tried things until this seems to have
run completely and is now showing the Nvidia GPU being used.
NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-545.29.06.run
That script ran and had no issues, and BOINC is using it, and was
getting stat of 4,000 per day with 6 CPUs, but now with .9 CPU +
GPU is already up to 8,000 and only been about 1/2 day.
So, just a matter of finding right installation process.
So, where did you find it?
My guess is that it's from
https://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Installing_BOINC_on_Fedora
which /does/ refer to Fedora 37...
Site I used??
https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/216530/en-us/
Gave then
Linux x64 (AMD64/EM64T) Display Driver
Version: 545.29.06
Release Date: 2023.11.22
Operating System: Linux 64-bit
Language: English (US)
File Size: 309.67 MB
Just did exact same thing, and gives different link??
Is where I got it after going thru an earlier nvidia page that had
one select OS and card info.
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
GeForce
GeForce 10 series
GeForce GTX 1070
Linux 64-bit
Production Branch
English (US)
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/213194/en-us
Linux x64 (AMD64/EM64T) Display Driver
Version: 535.129.03
Release Date: 2023.10.31
Operating System: Linux 64-bit
Language: English (US)
File Size: 325.83 MB
So, not clear why it switched drivers??
Will stick with the newer one that I got earlier??
At moment the statistics was running at 4,000 before, and at
moment is showing current days status at 15,000 so far.
So major improvement in processing speed.
OK, thanks for that info, and I'm glad that SETI is back up to speed for
you.
But it might be worth noting the contents of (again)
https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA
and specifically the section 'Recover from NVIDIA installer'
which warns that:
The NVIDIA binary driver installer overwrite(s) some configuration and
libraries.
...which may still be true :-)
Regards,
John
