NVIDIA GPU: Upgrade to the latest driver to process tasks using your computer's GPU"

I already am using the latest driver for my distribution (Linux Mint 19)

It sounds like you have an older graphics card that doesn't support the newer 418.39 Nvidia driver. Either the OpenCL app will fix this or I will need to build from an older SDK. Bear with me...

GTX 1060, only a couple of months old, running proprietary driver 390.116, the latest in the repositories. Thanks for your "insight".

You need at least 418, which are in the nvidia PPA.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa

update and it will be available in drivers.

Even same drivers and libraries here. So it's ment to do on kepler,
but here NOT. Is it nessecary to install the Cuda 10.1 SDK ?

You shouldn't have to install the SDK. You have a GTX 670 (compute capability 3.0) so you should be good.

I'm not sure what the problem is. Did the event log give any clues?

nope, only the task report says:

Now starting the targeted Martinet search:
Error code 700: an illegal memory access was encountered file polDiscTest_gpuCuda.cu line 415.

I had a couple of those as well. Lowered my OC a bit and it went away.

what a pitty, stock bios and clocks.

Guessed here: As root no write permissions were set on the /var/lib/boinc-client/ folder.

Still checking it...it wasn't.

edit: OK i got not any clue.

I have no clue either. It seems like it might be a bad build for that compute capability. When I get a chance later I will check if there are any other failures for cc3.0

ok, there are unrepaired dependencies to "libcuda.5.x-6.x" libraries.

Can't exclude them...

Can't add this DEB Package:

nvidia-opencl-icd_418.43-1_amd64.deb

The Packet-Manager won't install it (without any error).

btw

There is something tricky by encoding programm codes like C++.

I've noteiced that at copy&paste there will be a "^M" added in text
when copied in Windows 10. Lucky ones...

lol, the first ELEVEN points crunched by MY GPU.

Ha well it only ran for 1 second and credit is a function of time and FLOPs.

ok, system log shows : API 7.5 will be used for the app.

Mean that, that CUDA 7.5 will be used ?

Could the problem be the cuda version? I left that out of the plan class.

The app was built with cuda version 10.1 I believe.

ok, see no quick way to install cuda 10.1 , version 9.1 is latest on Ubuntu 18.10.

ok, i'll try to install then Cuda 8 , very later this evening, maybe tomorrow and see.

Driver 418 is available if you add the nvidia repository.

When I installed the 10.1 SDK, it also installed Cuda 10.1.105 automatically. I can only assume this is the version that is used when compiling.

According to Nvidia's website, the 10.1 SDK is supported on Ubuntu 18.10. If nothing else works and you get desperate enough, you could install the 10.1 SDK and you should automatically pick up all the required drivers and cuda versions.
