As usual it should be noted that this is a Development version.

BOINCview can now see 6.6.14 hosts, although venue appears to be incorrect. This got broken in 6.6.12.

I believe that this is meant to address the anonymous platform mechanism for cuda which was removed in 6.6.12, but I haven't tried it yet.

I have yet to see the change log of what is in this release.

And here is the link to the unofficial change log.

Seems to be working so far on 2 of my systems, both of which are doing GPUgrid work.

Howdy Folks,

Well here is a new release with many improvements and bug fixes.
Various issues with the manager not remembering things that have changed should now be fixed. The manager should now remember window placements across restarts. The client software should now properly handle CUDA applications via the anonymous platform mechanism. Compatibility with BOINCView should now work as expected.

Please be advised, if you tried our private drop of the BOINC Manager a couple of days ago setup might complain about BOINC Manager being newer than the one you are trying to install, or any other strange behavior. If you experience a problem re-run the setup program and select the repair option. That should fix whatever issues the installer had during the first installation pass.

Also note that with the new changes, BOINC Manager no longer remembers being maximized or minimized. This is something which different platforms have different rules and this solution appears to be compatible across all platforms. If you disagree with the behavior let us know.


Regards,

Rob
