I'm running the debian stable package and never encountered this bug
with my GTX 265. That's strange. But I would still put a sleep into
the init script rather than in the source (no rebuilding and
packaging). In the source we must find something different that will
not result in a loop or too long wait period.<br>

<p>First: the debian and ubuntu packages (official) has NO
delta, they are bit ideantical, so there is no problem
in this case.</p>
<p>A different behaviour may have MY ppa's, since so much
has changed between .27 and .54, and in my ppas the 5
seconds delay is already there.</p>
<p>So if you use debian and want to try my ppa you are
free to use it (if allowed by dpkg, don't know).</p>
<p>Otherwise you can download from alioth pkg boinc the
source tree and git-buildpackage it yourself :-)</p>
<p>P.s. the NVIDIA cards are affected too by this bug, but
I think the 5 seconds delay almost fixed it for my pc.</p>

<td style="font:inherit;" valign="top"> Hi,<br>
<br>
I think this bug (1140597) is really a timing issue
at boot time. As this seems to only affect ATI/AMD
hardware I think that the drivers for these cards
either get loaded after boinc or they take too long
to load so they are not present when boinc tries to
detect GPUs.<br>
<br>
My first try to see if this is correct would be to
insert a time delay in the boinc init script and see
if this helps. If boinc can successfully find the
GPU after the delay we need to find the script that
is loading the driver and instruct the boinc init
script to load after this.<br>
<br>
If MestreLion would be so kind to try this out it
would be great. You just need to make some local
changes to your init script and restart your
machine. If this is okay for you I will send you a
line to add to your init script.<br>
<br>
@Gianfranco: does the boinc Ubuntu package use the
same init script as the Debian package? I only have
a working Debian installation.<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
Christian<br>

<p>Hi MestreLion, I think this is the
right place to discuss to.</p>
<p>Unfortunately you script has a bad
behaviour for people that DON'T have an
usable GPU...</p>
<p>I don't like to restart boinc to
everybody just because the might suffer
from bug #1140597</p>
<p>What do you think about?</p>
<p>My opinion is that there should a way
for giving the right order to init
scripts, but I don't know at the moment
how to change the script right now...</p>
