    POEM: GPU app release

    Alright, the first linux OpenCL application is out. If you want to use it, you should use the latest BOINC prerelease (the non-stable releases are usually here: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/ ). All the versions below showed some bugs, we could not workaround on the server. You should then check that your BOINC client reports an OpenCL capable card (AMD needs OpenCL 1.0, Nvidia 1.1). So, der erste GPU Client ist raus. Wenn ihr ihn benutzen wollt, müsst ihr den neuesten BOINC Prerelease verwenden http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/ . Frühere Versionen könnten theoretisch auch gehen; bei uns gab es mit denen aber meist "no work sent" Fehlermeldungen. Ihr müsst dann schauen, dass euer Client eine OpenCL fähige Karte erkennt (AMD Leute brauchen OpenCL 1.0, bei Nvidia gehts ab 1.1). Edit: It seems we hit a small bug, I already saw on the testserver (and fixed there). It should've been fixed over here, too, but at the moment GPU tasks are not sent, although they are in the queue. I'm on this at the moment.

    I may try this out between now and the PG challenge.
