Hey!

So I am newer to BOINC and trying to run my B580 with Amicable and was wonder if there were any task available for it or it its not supported since I am not getting any tasks for it. fysa I might be an outlier since I am running Arch Linux w/ Kernel 6.13. Thanks!

Your CPU is getting tasks but I don't see anything besides your Intel GPU. linux is supported.

Your CPU is getting tasks but I don't see anything besides your Intel GPU. linux is supported.

I am aware, I am more concerned if Intel B580 is supported or not or if there is no tasks for it. I currently have another system with a 6700XT doing some work

The B580 supports OpenCL, so it should be supported by Amicable. Could you please restart BOINC Manager and post the event log? I am interested in seeing if BOINC recognizes the B580 and if Amicable recognizes it. See the bolded items in the example below:

Oh I greped my log from the past day before restart and I guess it's requested new tasks for the B580 about 77 times within the past 2 days FYSA. Don't know if that's useful information

The project limits Intel GPUs to only ones that have "Arc" in their host summary text (i.e. Intel Arc GPUs). This is done to avoid integrated Intel GPUs as they're almost useless. If you can fix your host's description to include "Arc" in GPU name, it will start receiving tasks.

Oh really? I am surprised that they aren't going off of the Device ID, in this case the "0xe20b" in the log.

Also they allowing Intel Arc iGPUs? Just curious

Not "they", it's me. I set

<host_summary_regex>Arc</host_summary_regex>

in the project's settings. If you can suggest a better regex that covers all Intel Arc GPUs, I'll be thankful.

So running clinfo on my system it's not showing Arc or Battlemage. Just "Device Name Intel(R) Graphics [0xe20b]" so as far as a getting a better regex to make it work seem it would be pointless at least for my Intel Limited Edition B580. As far as other cards, Maybe they acknowledge Arc under their Device Name. Again I am newer to BOINC so this is with my limited knowledge of BOINC or your projects settings. I am more used to FoldingAtHome where there is just the GPUs.txt file for whitelisted GPUs

I could do as you suggested and attempt to edit the Host Summary File but have no about doing as such.

*forgot to post but looked up some stuff*

The following regex might work while also working with Alchemist cards. Looking at FoldingAtHomes GPUs.txt it appears that Intel has only used "Intel(R) Graphics" in reference to Battlemage gpus

<host_summary_regex>Intel\(R\) (Arc|Graphics) </host_summary_regex>

I've updated the regex, it's

Intel\(R\) (Arc|Graphics)

now. Your GPU should start getting tasks now.

Awesome, can confirm pulling tasks and already have one pending validation. Thanks for updating the regex!

Is my Intc Raptorlake on my MSI laptop one of those worthless processing gpus? I don't see a way to add "Arc" to the device description to test it. It is OpenCL 3.0 at least and has plenty of memory.
