i work with gpgpu, so opencl runs well on my machine!

How do you know for certain? As that's what we're testing here at Albert.


just because I was not referring to BOINC at all, but to some code I run on my workstation related to my work. I was just saying that OpenCL "as a platform" works on my computer and seems to produce valid numbers if the code is valid (I'm unable to write bugfree code too!) and the drivers are good (11.11 had some problems, maybe some inconclusives were related to those?)

Anyway, I'm unable at the moment to use the card more on Albert. But I think that there're too many inconclusives and/or invalid just to be able to and say "the code is always correct in this new opencl app".

And yes, I'm sure the devs here are always working, I was just asking for a reply just to be sure about that.

I got some "validation errors" (wu marked as invalid) on my host.
It works ok, never had a problem with boinc or opencl (i work with gpgpu, so opencl runs well on my machine!), so maybe those are referring to some bugs in the ati opencl app?
I hope you are collecting and analyzing them...
A reply would be appreciated.

this wu http://albert.phys.uwm.edu/workunit.php?wuid=11481 maybe hides some problems: i was unable to validate against a cpu but got validated against another ati opencl.
Maybe the brp3sse version really did some mistakes, maybe we both with ati are wrong and he was right...
