POEM: New clients out

[nanoprobe]

So do I need to change my app info file or update boinc or both. I'm confused.

Update BOINC to 7.0.44. In this version the app_info is replaced with an app_config which is 1000x easier to work with.

Well, I'm still getting work on all 4 of my boxes that can run POEM, so I'm not messing with it until that changes. Not super interested in installing the bleeding-edge BOINC Client for a single project. Especially if it's not yet necessary.

Although, the new apps are supposedly a bit improved and should get slightly better credit it seems.

FWIW the new BOINC using an app_config can be used with any project. You can even run multiple different projects at the same time on the same machine by just assigning x amount of cores to each project. On my test machine I'm currently running WCG, POGS, Asteroids and SIMAP.

Now that there is a new app, and we can use app_config.xml instead of app_info.xml, does the dual nvidia card problem still exist?

Well, I tried it with my 590 + 560 Ti 2win (two dual GPU cards). No app_config.xml at all. Just the default app, one per GPU. Still the same old errors. I doubt running an app_config.xml, with more tasks per GPU would help.
