I gave up on trying to get seti GPU running last night, and left collatz open for work..all night, without getting a single WU....  how often does it have "no new work"?

The have over 200K wu's ready to send. Go into Your Account => Collatz Preferences and make sure GPU Wu's are enabled. The default is off. If you do not want CPU wu's, turn that one off.

Humm ... I would start with with the basics. Is GPU processing turned on in BOINC? (Advanced => Preferences => Processor Tab=> Use GPU) Is BOINC seeing your card? Message: 8/12/2009 6:12:39 AM CUDA device: GeForce GTX 260 (driver version 19038, compute capability 1.3, 896MB, est. 104GFLOPS) You already said you upgraded drivers and have enabled GPU in Collatz.
That's all I can think of at the moment.  ???

EDDIT: Can you post the message you are getting.

Collatz GPU applications both nVidia CUDA and ATI CAL run only on Windows. If you are trying to receive work to process on your video card on a Linux box you will not get any. CPU only on Linux.

I have worked out why GPU grid was erroring out.... I had it over clocked a bit high, I'd say the problem was caused by heat...

Have gone back to stock speed for now....
